This paper analyses the processes by which organisms form groups and how social forces interact with environmental variability and transport. For aquatic organisms, the latter is especially important-will sheared or turbulent flows disrupt organism groups? To analyse such problems, we use individual-based models to study the environmental and social forces leading to grouping. The models are th...

this paper examines the characteristics of the turbulent 17th and 18th centuries of japan, investigating their impacts on the japanese dramatic literature. in particular, we examine the impact of the tokugawa society on the dramatic literature of japan, according to the plays suicide of the lovers in sonezaki, and kanadehon chushingura. these two examples reveal the entrance of a typical samura...

Turbulence within an organization ‘s environment often creates changes in the need for information and consequently in existing information systems. Coping with these changes can be extremely complicated. Part of our research which is addressed in this paper is to describe and analyze these coping strategies. The research focusses on the Dutch Social Security systems and how 572 moreor-less ind...

a novel neuro-based method is introduced to solve the laminar boundary layer and the turbulent free jet equations. the proposed method is based on cellular neural networks, cnns, which are recently applied widely to solve partial differential equations. the effectiveness of the method is illustrated through some examples.

Contemporary social science research concerning governance tends to take an institutional perspective that privileges structural analysis. The resulting body of literature has an emphasis on classification, typologies and regimes. This approach has been criticized on the basis that it neglects the role of agency and context when research concerns complex and heterogeneous community governance c...

In this paper, the Al2O3-water nanofluid flow in laminar and turbulent flows inside tubes fitted with diamond-shaped turbulators is numerically modeled. The nanofluid flow is modeled by employing a two-phase mixture method and applying the constant heat flux boundary condition at tube walls. In the results, the effects of different parameters such as the geometry of turbulators, volume fraction...

from rosana's point of view, following the decline of the dominant role of states in the international arena, the world system has changed from a uni-polar to a multi-polar system. in the new system, there are many independent players. in crease in citizen's knowldge and individual expertise is one of the charactristics of our new world. in this era, legitimacy is no longer derived fr...

the objective of the present research is to study the effect of the social capital on the competitive behavior of the companies with the applied nature. the research method is descriptive-analytic and has a correlational type.the statistical population of the research includes sixty managers of the food industry companies in hamedan. the statistical sample of the research includes fifty two man...

The main purpose of this study is to estimate the step heat fluxes applied to the wall of a two-dimensional symmetric channel with turbulent flow. For inverse analysis, conjugate gradient method with adjoint problem is used. In order to calculate the flow field,   two equation model is used. In this study, adjoint problem is developed to conduct an inverse analysis of heat transfer in a channel...

 In the present paper, partial cavitation over various head-forms was studied numerically to predict the shape of the cavity. Navier-Stokes equations in addition to an advection equation for vapor volume fraction were solved. Mass transfer between the phases was modeled by a sink term in vapor equation in the numerical analysis for different geometries in wide range of cavitation numbers. The r...
