We propose that the anomalous Cretaceous vertical motion of Australia and distinctive geochemistry and geophysics of the Australian-Antarctic Discordance (AAD) were caused by a subducted slab which migrated beneath the continent during the Cretaceous, stalled within the mantle transition zone, and is presently being drawn up by the Southeast Indian Ridge. During the Early Cretaceous the eastern...

The utilization of fluted inner tube in tube-in-tube heat exchangers is an effective way to improve the transfer performance. Based on segmented model, performance a gas cooler (FTGC) transcritical CO2 pump water heater was studied this paper. simulation model validated and adopted numerically investigate effects different parameters cooler, which compared smooth (STGC) with same geometric para...

extended abstract 1. introduction currently the study of urban exhausted tissues is one of the major issues in urban policies as well as the contemporary urban planning in iran. lack of attention to exhausted tissues results in the growth of these tissues and the remove of local residents from these areas over time. therefore, the problem of identifying the type of exhausted tissues based on ap...

In the present work, the performances of improved two-stage multi inter-cooler trans- critical carbon dioxide (CO2) refrigeration cycles with ejector and internal heat exchanger have been examined. In the new improved cycles, an internal heat exchanger is append to the cycles. Also, second inter-cooler in improved cycles, cooled with the refrigeration of the cycle, so that in first c...

milk samples were collected from quarters of 35 cows with subclinical mastitis (california mastitis test [cmt] positive and somatic cell counts [scc] >500,000 cells/ml in individual quarter foremilk), as well as from 37 healthy controls. compared to the levels observed in milk from healthy quarters, milk from quarters with subclinical mastitis showed elevated sodium (91.97 vs 52.93 mg/dl), chlo...

BACKGROUND Higher walking levels lead to lower mortality in type 2 diabetes, but inclement weather may reduce walking. In this patient population, we conducted a longitudinal cohort study to objectively quantify seasonal variations both in walking and in two vascular risk factors associated with activity levels, hemoglobin A1C and blood pressure. METHODS Between June 2006 and July 2009, volun...
