Consider linear systems involving affine-linear dependencies on interval parameters. Presented is a free C-XSC software implementing a generalized parametric fixed-point iteration method for verified enclosure of the parametric solution set. Some specific features of the corresponding algorithm concerning sharp enclosure of the contracting matrix and inner approximation of the solution enclosur...

Three enclosures (10 x 10 x 1.5-1.3 m in depth) were set beside Dianch Lake, Kunming, People's Republic of China, for the period from July 28 to August 26, 2002. The enclosures were filled with cyanobacterial (Microcystis aeruginosa) water bloom-containing lake water. Lake sediment that contained macrophytes and water chestnut seeds was spread over the entire bottom of each enclosure. Initially...

Rats were trained to search for a food reward hidden under sawdust in the center of a square-shaped enclosure designed to force orientation on the basis of the overall geometry of the environment. They were then tested in a number of enclosures differing in shape and in size (rectangular-, double-side square-, and equilateral triangle-shaped enclosures). Results showed that rats transferred the...

This paper is concerned with the analysis and design of an integrated passive and active control system for reducing the haul truck noise. By using a passive enclosure with two open ends and fiberglass inner surface, a three-dimensional noise radiation problem of the engine noise is shaped to a simple problem of noise radiation from the open ends above 200 Hz. Below 200Hz where the transmission...

Abstract The effect of aspect ratio and baffle shape on natural convection patterns in a U-shaped cavity filled with CuO water-based nanofluid is examined detail, T-shaped attached to the cold wall. To solve coupled continuity, momentum, energy equations, finite volume method used, pressure–velocity coupling iteratively solved SIMPLE algorithm. study investigates impact Rayleigh number (10 4 –1...
