Steady-state solutions to the complete axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations are obtained by an iterative technique for an intense pressure-gradient force representative of the tropical cyclone. Solutions for the horizontal and vertical components of motion are compared for various horizontal and vertical mixing coefficients, drag coefficients, and Coriolis parameters. A multilevel model is used...

Based.on the MHD analysis, it is proved that the solar magnetic loops without applied toroidal field and vertical field can only exist in the case of $ (= < p < 0, the core pressure of the loop is smaller B 2,p. P/ . than that of the environment. The current and magnetic structure corresponding to the p < 0 magnetic loops lead it to be stable as observed on the Skylab. It is interesting, from p...

In advanced energy process technologies, like the advanced pressurized circulating fluidized bed (CFB) process conceptualized by Foster Wheeler Corp., there exists a need to transport and control the flow of solids from a high pressure vessel to a low pressure vessel. Solids transport has long been done in the refinery industry and in the CFB combustor industry, but always from a low pressure v...

The main combinatorial result in this article is a classification of bar partitions of n which are of maximal p-bar weight for all odd primes p ≤ n. As a consequence, we show that apart from very few exceptions any irreducible spin character of the double covers of the symmetric and alternating groups vanishes on some element of odd prime order. Résumé. Notre résultat principal est une classifi...

OBJECTIVE The risk for cardiovascular disease is well-documented. Perhaps surprisingly, specific athletic populations, including American football players, exhibit increased risk for cardiovascular disease as presented by elevated blood pressure. There is evidence suggesting a link between muscle fiber type distribution and resting blood pressure. Acknowledging this association, it becomes impo...

Thermodynamic retrievals can derive pressure and temperature information from kinematic measurements in regions where no in situ observations are available. This study presents a new retrieval technique called SAMURAI-TR (Spline Analysis at Mesoscale Utilizing Radar and Aircraft Instrumentation–Thermodynamic Retrieval) that derives three-dimensional fields of pressure and density potential temp...

How deep-sea fauna evolved is a question still being investigated. One of the most accepted theories is that shallow water organisms migrated to deeper waters and gave origin to the deep-sea communities. However, many organisms are prevented from performing long vertical migrations by the increasing hydrostatic pressure. Tadpole larvae of the ascidian Polyandrocarpa zorritensis were submitted t...

This study presented a method to estimate the complete ground reaction forces from pressure insoles in walking. Five male subjects performed 10 walking trials in a laboratory. The complete ground reaction forces were collected during a right foot stride by a force plate at 1000Hz. Simultaneous plantar pressure data were collected at 100Hz by a pressure insole system with 99 sensors covering the...
