A layer of compressible, rotating, elastico-viscous fluid of related density heated & soluted from below is considered in the presence of vertical magnetic field to include the effect of Hall currents. Dispersion relation governing the effect of visco-elasticity, salinity gradient, rotation, magnetic field and Hall currents is derived. For the case of stationary convection, the Rivlin-Erickson ...

Introduction Coarse wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM) is becoming increasingly important for optical access applications [1,2]. It allows to deploy low-cost shortreach links with appreciable capacity using a 20-nm wavelength grid between 1271 nm and 1611 nm. Recent research has pushed per-channel CWDM bit rates to 10 Gb/s with transmission distances of more than 40 km using directly modul...

1. Abstract In order to predict strong earthquake ground motion, it is inevitable to construct a relevant subsurface structure model, especially S-wave velocity structure of the site of consideration. Inversion analysis with micro-tremor observation is frequently used to acquire S-wave velocity structure due to its convenience and inexpensiveness. Usually inversion analysis is carried out for e...

We present results from a field study conducted in Wilmington, a suburb of Los Angeles, during 8 days of the period 26 August–10 September 2004. The tracer, sulfur hexafluoride, was released at a height of 3m from a power plant site on the shoreline, and the concentrations of the tracer were sampled on five arcs at 100, 400, 1000, 3000, and 5000m from the source during 6 h of the day starting a...

The concept of the theory of continuous groups of transformations has attracted the attention of applied mathematicians and engineers to solve many physical problems in the engineering sciences. Three applications are presented in this paper. The first one is the problem of time-dependent vertical temperature distribution in a stagnant lake. Two cases have been considered for the forms of the w...
