nowadays cmm machines are widely used in surface measurement and inspection. as inspection results from cmm machine are obtained by the means of measuring surfaces with direct contact, they are more precise than non-contact method (like optical measurement). however, cmm machines give more reliable and accurate results rather than non-contact methods but also these results come with error when ...

in this paper, wavelet collocation method has been used to solve nonlinear fin problem with temperature dependent thermal conductivity and heat transfer coefficient. thermal conductivity of fin materials varies any type so that we consider thermal conductivity as the general function of temperature.  here we consider three particular cases, where we assume that thermal conductivity is constant,...

One way to increase the heat transfer is to use perforated twisted tapes with different hole diameters, which largely improve heat transfer with an increase in the heat transfer area at the constant volume and more mixed flow. In the previous studies, the effect of nanofluids with perforated twisted tapes is less studied. In this work, the performance of water / iron oxide nanofluid in a double...

The evolution of the tetrapod limb involved an expansion and elaboration of the endoskeletal elements, while the fish fin rays were lost. Loss of fin-specific genes, and regulatory changes in key appendicular patterning genes have been identified as mechanisms of limb evolution, however their contributions to cellular organization and tissue differences between fins and limbs remains poorly und...

In this study, by using the finite volume method, the heat transfer in a convective straight fin with temperature-dependent thermal properties and an internal heat generation under multi-boiling heat transfer modes are analyzed. In this regard, the local heat transfer coefficient is considered to vary within a power-law function of temperature. In the present study, the coexistence of all the b...

Monitoring seed production in mixed loblolly pinc shortlcaf pine (Pinus taeda L. and Pinus echinata Mill.. respectively) stands may require identifying individual weds hy species. Althuugh lublully pine seeds are UII average Ileavier and larger than thosc of shortleaf pine. there is considerable overlap in these properties for individual seeds. In this study the properties of six seer1 lnrs of ...

Q : dimensionless heat loss from the fin, q/(klw f φ ) Abstract Rt: dimensionless thermal resistance A reversed trapezoidal fin with fluid in the inside wall is analyzed using a two-dimensional analytical method. Thermal resistance for the reversed trapezoidal fin is presented as a function of the fin length and fin base height. The relationship between the inside fluid convection characteristi...

A new species of dart fish, Parioglossus galzini sp. nov., is described based on specimens collected in Haurei Bay, Rapa Island (French Polynesia). It is distinguished from all other described species of Parioglossus as follows: dark lateral body stripe absent, 100 or more scales in longitudinal series from above pectoral-fin base to base of caudal fin, pectoral-fin rays 19–21, membrane of firs...

The new propulsor, whose inspiration is from pectoral fins of fishes, has arisen increasing attention. To improve the performance of the existing labriform bionic pectoral fin, based on the structure and control mechanism of real fish pectoral fin, the under-actuated technology was utilized to design a new flexible bionic pectoral fin. Then, the kinematic model of pectoral fin during fish forwa...
