Shear-driven flow between a rotating cylinder and stationary elliptical enclosure is studied in this paper. Two-dimensional time-dependent Navier–Stokes equations are solved using meshless method, where interpolations done with polyharmonic spline radial basis functions. The fluid analyzed for various aspect ratios of the ellipse eccentric placements inner cylinder. Contour plots vorticity stre...

The light curves of the pre-main-sequence star KH 15D from 1913–2003 can be understood if the star is a member of an eccentric binary that is encircled by a vertically thin, inclined ring of dusty gas. Eclipses occur whenever the reflex motion of a star carries it into the shadow of the circumbinary ring; the eclipses occur with period equal to the binary orbital period of 48.4 days. Features o...

OCCASIONALLY, it takes time for a great scientific discovery to penetrate clinical practice. Bernhard Katz and Archibald Vivian Hill reported over 60 years ago that force steeply rises when skeletal muscle is lengthened at increasing velocities (eccentric contractions), whereas force sharply declines when skeletal muscle is shortened at increasing velocities (concentric contractions) (1,2), res...

THERE iS much need for earlier and more careful examination of patients, particularly children, who present with amblyopia in a squinting eye, with a view to the detection of eccentric fixation. It is true that in many cases considerable improvement of visual acuity may occur as a result of occlusion of the non-squinting eye, but there are others, mainly those with eccentric fixation, in which ...

A Dehn sphere Σ [P] in a closed 3-manifold M is a 2-sphere immersed in M with only double curve and triple point singularities. The sphere Σ fills M [Mo2] if it defines a celldecomposition of M . The inverse image in S of the double curves of Σ is the Johansson diagram of Σ [J1] and if Σ fills M it is possible to reconstruct M from the diagram. A Johansson representation of M is the Johansson d...

We present the discovery and characterization of HIP 33609 b, a transiting warm brown dwarf orbiting late B star, discovered by NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite TESS as TOI-588 b. b is large (R$_{b}$ = 1.580$_{-0.070}^{+0.074}$ R$_{J}$) on highly eccentric (e 0.560$_{-0.031}^{+0.029}$) orbit with 39-day period. The host star bright (V 7.3 mag), T$_{eff}$ 10,400$_{-660}^{+800}$ K mas...

This paper analyzes the transformation of media structures and possible effects on public communication from 1960 to 2008. To build a basis for the evaluation of trends and situations in the various models of media and politics (Hallin/Mancini 2004), this paper will systematically analyze and compare the cases of Austria, Germany, and Switzerland (democratic-corporatist), Great Britain (liberal...
