An investigation has been made to analyze the effects of viscous dissipation on the heat transfer characteristics for both hydro-dynamically and thermally fully developed, laminar shear driven flow between two infinitely long parallel plates, where the upper plate is moving in an axial direction at a constant speed. On the basis of some routine assumptions made in the literature, a close form a...

A method is described for the purification of the A substance in horse saliva, and additional observations on the chemical properties of the preparation are reported. The preparation isolated was found to be highly active serologically and it appears to be polysaccharide in nature.

The authors present an epizootiological analysis of viral haemorrhagic disease of rabbits in Poland. The biological, physical and chemical properties of virus isolates used for the production and control of the vaccine 'Cunivac' (produced in Poland) are also presented. The safety and efficacy of this vaccine are demonstrated. Laboratory experiments and large-scale field observations yielded sat...

Molecular modeling frequently constructs classification models for the prediction of two-class entities, such as compound bio(in)activity, chemical property (non)existence, protein (non)interaction, and so forth. The models are evaluated using well known metrics such as accuracy or true positive rates. However, these frequently used metrics applied to retrospective and/or artificially generated...

This paper presents a novel approach for an automatic and holistic quality assessment of fresh concrete on the construction site. Based low-cost easy-to-mount camera setup, delivering image sequences showing flow during discharge process mixing truck, we propose Concrete Flow Transformer, deep learning based Vision Transformers, online prediction properties. The performance proposed is evaluate...

the performance of asphaltic pavements during their service life is highly dependent on the mechanical properties of the asphaltic layers. therefore, in order to extend their service life, scientists and engineers are constantly trying to improve the mechanical properties of the asphaltic mixtures. one common method of improving the performance of asphaltic mixtures is using different types of ...

The effects of magnesium stearate (MgSt) and shear stress on flow properties and hydrophobicity are not well known. Blends with different concentrations of magnesium stearate and varying amounts of shear were tested using three different procedures: the FT4 Rheometer test, a tap density analyzer, and the Washburn method, to better understand the relation of lubricant concentration, amount of sh...
