This article is proposed to address the melting heat transfer of a Jeffrey fluid in Blasius and Sakiadis flow caused due to a moving surface. Thermal radiation and a constant free stream are considered in this mathematical model. The non-linear coupled dimensionless equations from the governing equations are attained by employing appropriate similarity transformations. The resulting dimensionle...

in this paper, modeling and optimization of fischer-tropsch synthesis is considered in a fixed-bed catalytic reactor using an industrial fe-cu-k catalyst. a one dimensional pseudo-homogenous plug flow model without axial dispersion is developed for converting syngas to heavy hydrocarbons. the effects of temperature, pressure, h2 to co ratio in feed stream, and co molar flow on the mass flow rat...

In this paper, we present a novel framework of multi-rate scheduling of signal processing programs represented by regular stream ow graphs (RSFGs). The main contribution of this paper is translating the scheduling problem of RSFGs into an equivalent problem in the domain of Karp-Miller computation graphs. A distinct feature of our scheduling framework | called multi-rate software pipelining | i...

An important question for salmon restoration efforts in the western USA is ‘How should habitat restoration plans be altered to accommodate climate change effects on stream flow and temperature?’ We developed a decision support process for adapting salmon recovery plans that incorporates (1) local habitat factors limiting salmon recovery, (2) scenarios of climate change effects on stream flow an...

we prove the existence of steady 2-dimensional flows, containing a bounded vortex, and approaching a uniform flow at infinity. the data prescribed is the rearrangement class of the vorticity field. the corresponding stream function satisfies a semilinear elliptic partial differential equation. the result is proved by maximizing the kinetic energy over all flows whose vorticity fields are rearra...

The study of interactions of jet into cross flow at different longitudinal and transverse angles of jet was studied. The following components were designed and constructed: a low velocity wind tunnel to produce the uniform flow, a flat plate with a traverse injection system to simulate the jet injection, and a spatial rake to measure the total pressure. The tests were carried out at longitudina...

[1] Subsurface flow within a single riffle of a low-gradient gravel bed stream was modeled in three dimensions using MODFLOW, a finite difference groundwater flow model. Model simulations showed that exchange flows can only occur in this low-gradient, gaining stream because of a zone of alluvial sediment around the stream that has much higher permeability than the surrounding catchment (K = 10 ...

Stream flow information is essential for many important uses across a broad range of scales, including global water balances, engineering design, flood forecasting, reservoir operations, navigation, water supply, recreation, and environmental management. Growing populations and competing priorities for water, including preservation and restoration of aquatic habitat, are spurring demand for mor...

[1] The long-term (1935–1999) monthly records of temperature, precipitation, stream flow, river ice thickness, and active layer depth have been analyzed in this study to examine Lena River hydrologic regime and recent change. Remarkable hydrologic changes have been identified in this study. During the cold season (October–April), significant increases (25–90%) in stream flow and decrease in riv...

Much of the research regarding streaming data has focused only on real time querying and analysis of recent data stream allowable in memory. However, as data stream mining, or tracking of past data streams, is often required, it becomes necessary to store large volumes of streaming data in stable storage. Moreover, as stable storage has restricted capacity, past data stream must be summarized. ...
