knowledge of fluid flow can play a basic role in optimizing mixing processes. in preparation of sodium perborate, sodium metaborate and hydrogen peroxide, as raw materials, mix and react in the presence of a turbine mixer. in this investigation, the effect of the presence of baffle in a mixing tank equipped with a two-impeller turbine agitator was studied. at first, steady state flow in the tan...

The previous studies of authors on passive micromixers indicated that the micromixers dividing the flow to several layers, such as rhombus micromixers and micromixers with obstacles in the middle of the mixing channel, have higher mixing degree than other types. Also, using of oscillatory inlet velocities is an active method to enhance the mixing efficiency of micromixers. Therefore, in this st...

The purpose of the present work is to treat a new notion related to linear dynamics, which can be viewed as a “localization” of the notion of hypercyclicity. In particular, let T be a bounded linear operator acting on a Banach space X and let x be a non-zero vector in X such that for every open neighborhood U ⊂ X of x and every non-empty open set V ⊂ X there exists a positive integer n such tha...

We investigate the possibility of mixing between open and closed string excitations in D-brane models with the fundamental string scale at the TeV. The open string modes describe the Standard Model Higgs, while closed strings describe graviscalars living in the bulk. This provides a string setup for computing the Higgs-graviscalar mixing, that leads to a phenomenologically interesting invisible...

In this paper we investigate stopped partial sums for weak dependent sequences. In particular, the results are used to obtain new maximal inequalities for strongly mixing sequences and related almost sure results.

We consider reaction-diffusion systems on the infinite line that exhibit a family of spectrally stable spatially periodic wave trains u0(kx− ωt; k) that are parameterized by the wave number k. We prove stable diffusive mixing of the asymptotic states u0(kx + φ±; k) as x → ±∞ with different phases φ− 6= φ+ at infinity for solutions that initially converge to these states as x → ±∞. The proof is ...

There are two basic theoretical approaches to obtaining neutrino mass and mixing. In the minimalist approach, one adds just enough new stuff to the Minimal Standard Model to get mν 6= 0 and Uαi 6= 1. In the holistic approach, one uses a general framework or principle to enlarge the Minimal Standard Model such that, among other things, mν 6= 0 and Uαi 6= 1. In both cases, there are important sid...

A common barrier to accurately predicting the fate of reactive contaminants is accurately describing the role of incomplete mixing. In this paper we develop a stochastic analytical framework for an irreversible kinetic bimolecular reaction in a system with anomalous transport, governed by the fractional advection– dispersion equation (fADE). The classical well-mixed (thermodynamic) solution dic...

In this article, we present a novel method of quantitatively measuring mixing using laser induced fluorescence. This method is independent of flow and light sheet characteristics. The premise of this work is that molecular level mixing can be quantified through a scalar pH field in an aqueous solution. A two dimensional pH field can be determined in the solution by imaging the laser induced flu...

The study of charmless hadronic two-body decays of B mesons is one of the most fascinating topics in B physics. A construction of the unitarity triangle based on such decays is presented, which is independent of B–B̄ and K–K̄ mixing. It provides stringent tests of the Standard Model with small theoretical uncertainties. A mixing-independent construction of the unitarity triangle
