in this study, flow field and heat transfer of al2o3-cu/water micropolar hybrid nanofluid is investigated in a permeable channel using the least square method. the channel is encountered to chemical reaction, and a constant magnetic field is also applied. the bottom wall is hot and coolant fluid is injected into the channel from the top wall. the effects of different parameters such as the reyn...

We extend the correspondence between adS-supergravities and superconformal field theories on the adS boundary to a correspondence between gauged supergravities (typically with non-compact gauge groups) and quantum field theories on domain walls.

Reconfigurable hardware is ideal for use in Systems-on-a-Chip, as it provides hardware speeds as well as the benefits of post-fabrication modification. However, not all applications are equally suited to any one reconfigurable architecture. Therefore, the Totem Project focuses on the automatic generation of customized reconfigurable hardware. This paper details our first attempts at the design ...

BACKGROUND Maine is a rural state with an aging population located in the northeastern United States. Pharmacists play an important role in serving the public's health as they are often the most available point-of-contact within a community. OBJECTIVE To assess the current pharmacy practice needs as viewed by licensed pharmacists across our rural state, and to distinguish issues that are uniq...

The authors investigated the influence of goal orientation on sales performance in a longitudinal field study with salespeople. As hypothesized, a learning goal orientation had a positive relationship with sales performance. This relationship was fully mediated by 3 self-regulation tactics: goal setting, effort, and planning. In contrast, a performance goal orientation was unrelated to sales pe...

We show experimentally that poly-crystalline TiO2 spheres, 20-30 μm in diameter, exhibit a magnetic dipole Mie resonance in the terahertz (THz) frequency band (1.0-1.6 THz) with a narrow line-width (<40 GHz). We detect and investigate the magnetic dipole and electric dipole resonances in single high-permittivity TiO2 microspheres, using a near-field probe with a sub-wavelength (~λ/50) size aper...

Aim: Programmatic assessment for learning (PAL) is becoming more and more popular as a concept but its implementation is not without problems. In this paper we describe the design principles behind a PAL program in a general practice training context. Design principles: The PAL program was designed to optimise the meaningfulness of assessment information for the registrar and to make him/her us...

Mobile wireless terminals tend to become multi-mode wireless communication devices. Furthermore, these devices become adaptive. Heterogeneous reconfigurable hardware provides the flexibility, performance and efficiency to enable the implementation of these devices. The implementation of an WCDMA and an OFDM receiver in the same coarse-grained reconfigurable MONTIUM processor is discussed. Keywo...
