Mathematical models of compaction in sedimentary basins typically assume a relationship between effective pressure p• and porosity •, which is of a non-linear type; that is, p• = p•(d). However, at depths greater than a kilometer, pressure solution becomes important and this relationship approaches a viscous one. We derive a mathematical model for viscous compaction in sedimentary basins and sh...

background: the people residing in coastal areas of visakhapatnam are mostly engaged in fishery, which is always been a physically demanding job, and numerous factors have direct or indirect impact on the health of fishermen; but, the data about their physical fitness or health status is quite scanty. thus, the present study was conducted to assess their cardiorespiratory fitness pattern, as we...

The new Ds hadronic modes and recent measurements which differ substantially from previous measurements are listed in Table 1. The decay mode T?OK*+ is analogous to the pK+ and iT”“K+ modes previously observed and is seen at a comparable rate to that of (9~. The existence of these KT? decays indicates that the strength of the internal W emission dia* grams is sizable. The ox++ mode is seen only...

From at least the time of Thomas Edison, U.S. engineers have used the word “bug” to refer to flaws in the systems they developed. This short word conveniently covered a multitude of possible problems. It also suggested that difficulties were small and could be easily corrected. IBM engineers who installed the ASSC Mark I at Harvard University in 1944 taught the phrase to the staff there. Grace ...
