Contraction of a liquid sheet of an incompressible Newtonian fluid in a passive ambient fluid is studied computationally to provide insights into the dynamics of capillary wave created during contraction. The problem composed of the Navier-Stokes system is associated with initial and boundary conditions that govern the time evolution of the capillary wave and the pressure and velocity fields wi...

background: this article sets up the initial discussion of the evolution of biopharmaceutical innovation in china through the perspective of sectoral innovation system (sis).methods: two data sources including archival documentary data and field interviews were used in this study. archival documentary data was collected from china food and drug administration (cfda) and chinese national knowled...

A new Euler model is proposed to predict fiber orientation distribution at high Reynolds number in a dilute planar contraction. The model mainly accounts for the evolution of mean velocity and turbulence-induced rotational diffusion coefficient along the contraction. It is shown that the new model, as the function of local turbulent dissipation rate, fiber length, and fluid viscosity, can refle...

orography plays a substantial role in the formation and evolution of many atmospheric phenomena. observations indicate that two mountain ranges to the southwest of the red sea and west of iran (zagross mountain range) play a crucial role in the formation, evolution and activities of synoptic weather systems over iran. observations also, indicate that there are considerable differences between t...

While the evolutionary mechanisms driving eukaryote genome size evolution are still debated, repeated element content appears to be crucial. Here, we reconstructed the phylogeny and identified repeats in the genome of 26 Drosophila exhibiting a twofold variation in genome size. The content in transposable elements (TEs) is highly correlated to genome size evolution among these closely related s...

Voltage-gated calcium (Cav) channels serve dual roles in the cell, where they can both depolarize the membrane potential for electrical excitability, and activate transient cytoplasmic Ca2+ signals. In animals, Cav channels play crucial roles including driving muscle contraction (excitation-contraction coupling), gene expression (excitation-transcription coupling), pre-synaptic and neuroendocri...

G. Darbo [Rend. Sem. Math. Univ. Padova, 24 (1955) 84--92] used the measure of noncompactness to investigate operators whose properties can be characterized as being intermediate between those of contraction and compact operators. In this paper, we apply the Darbo's fixed point theorem for solving infinite system of linear equations in some sequence spaces.
