This paper studies the shape of an air bubble quasi-statically flowing in the longitudinal direction of narrow channels. Two bottom topographies are treated, i.e., linear and quadratic variations of the gap along the transverse direction. This work analyses the main characteristics of the gas-liquid interface with respect to the wedge aspect ratio. From the convergence of asymptotic, numerical ...

Turbulent forced convective mass (heat) transfer downstream of blockages with round and elongated holes in a rectangular channel was studied. The blockages and the channel had the same 12:1 (width-to-height ratio) cross section, and a distance equal to twice the channel height separated consecutive blockages. The diameter of the holes was either 0.5 or 0.75 of the height of the channel. Naphtha...

This paper deals with the measure of Aspect Ratio for mesh partitioning and gives hints why, for certain solvers, the Aspect Ratio of partitions plays an important role. We define and rate different kinds of Aspect Ratio, present a new center-based partitioning method which optimizes this measure implicitly and rate several existing partitioning methods and tools under the criterion of Aspect R...

In this paper, electrical characteristics of nanoscale single-, double-, and all-around-gate silicon-0n-insulator (SOI) devices are computational investigated by using a quantum mechanical simulation. Considering several important properties, such as on/off current ratio, drain induced channel barrier height lowering, threshold voltage roll off, and subthreshold swing, geometry aspect ratio is ...

This paper reports on the feasibility of using surface mount technology (SMT) assembly processes and materials to produce highly parallel, high-aspect ratio microchannel arrays. Experimental results show that the fabrication of high-aspect-ratio (> 40:1) microchannel arrays is possible using solder paste, screen printing, and reflow bonding. A simple model and empirical examination verifies tha...

mixed convection is a fundamentally significant heat transfer mechanism that occurs in selection industrial and technological applications. in this study, first the laminar mixed convection inside rectangular enclosure with moving wall and aspect ratio=10 is modeled and then the results are compared with other investigate. after showing varity of results, the investigation is continued with tur...

Treemaps are a popular technique to visualize hierarchical data. The input is a weighted tree T where the weight of each node is the sum of the weights of its children. A treemap for T is a hierarchical partition of a rectangle into simply connected regions, usually rectangles. Each region represents a node of T and its area is proportional to the weight of the corresponding node. An important ...

Parametric tiling is a well-known transformation which is widely used to improve locality, parallelism and granularity. However, parametric tiling is also a non-linear transformation and this prevents polyhedral analysis or further polyhedral transformation after parametric tiling. It is therefore generally applied during the code generation phase. In this paper, we present a method to remain p...

Spatial databases support a variety of geometric queries on point data such as range searches, nearest neighbor searches, etc. Balanced Aspect Ratio (BAR) trees are hierarchical space decomposition structures that are general-purpose and space-efficient, and, in addition, enjoy a worst case performance poly-logarithmic in the number of points for approximate queries. They maintain limits on the...
