Ocean waters often show layered structures especially where exchange flow between two basins occurs. These structures are often attributed to processes such as double.diffusive convection, internal waves, turbulent modulated mixing. In this paper by examining the vertical structures of temperature, salinity and density, of the middle parts of Caspian Sea it is shown that such layered structure ...

We investigate a generalization of Brockett’s celebrated double bracket flow that is closely related to matrix Riccati differential equations. Using known results on the classification of transitive Lie group actions on homogeneous spaces, necessary and sufficient conditions for accessibility of the generalized double bracket flow on Grassmann manifolds are derived. This leads to sufficient Lie...

A simple and robust co-flowing microfluidic device for double emulsion preparation is designed and assembled to visually study the double emulsion formation by the use of a microscope and high-speed camera. Using a visualization system, the transient processes of double emulsion formation in co-flowing stream are observed and recorded for a variety of flow rates. The effects of flow rates of ea...

The development of a 'click, click, cy-click' process utilizing a double aza-Michael reaction to generate functionalized 1,2,5-thiadiazepane 1,1-dioxides is reported. Optimization in flow, followed by scale out of the inter-/intramolecular double aza-Michael addition has also been realized using a microwave-assisted, continuous flow organic synthesis platform (MACOS). In addition, a facile one-...

Discrete fluid volumes (plugs) are often needed for micro bioassay. Current methods of isolating discrete volumes use electrokinetic forces that require high voltages and result in ionic component separation of the sample. Pressure-driven flow through a double-T metering junction is a suggested alternative to this electrokinetic method. There has been no extensive analysis of pressure-driven pl...

The steady infiltration rate of soil profiles is commonly determined for irrigation and conservation planning, but the divergence methods reduces reliability measurements. In this study, measured with a double ring infiltrometer (isr-dri) in different layers profile was compared between vertical saturated flow estimated by Richards equation (isr-hy). measurements isr-dri at top A, E, Bt horizon...

in this paper, numerical investigation of a flat passive micromixer with heterogeneous surface properties that the flow through it, is driven by the electroosmotic flow have been presented. the governing equations, which consist of a laplace equation for the distribution of external electric potential, a poisson equation for the distribution of electric double layer potential, modified navier-s...
