An a priori analysis of subfilter-scale (SFS) species structure important to estimate chemical reaction rates in large-eddy simulation (LES) is performed using direct numerical (DNS) turbulent premixed flame at turbulence Reynolds number Re0=329 and Karlovitz Ka0=7.23 with semi-detailed finite-rate chemistry. Differences between the complete extracted from DNS those estimated LES-filtered varia...

Matched asymptotic solutions for the steady banded flow of the diffusive Johnson-Segalman model in various geometries ⋆ Abstract We present analytic solutions for steady flow of the Johnson-Segalman (JS) model with a diffusion term in various geometries and under controlled strain rate conditions , using matched asymptotic expansions. The diffusion term represents a singular perturbation that l...

Understanding the formation and exhumation of the remarkable ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) rocks of the Western Gneiss Region, Norway, hinges on precise determination of the time of eclogite recrystallization. We conducted detailed thermal ionization mass spectrometry, chemical abrasion analysis and sensitive high-resolution ion-microprobe analysis of zircons from four ultrahighand high-pressure (HP...

We present a software toolbox for symmetric band reduction, together with a set of testing and timing drivers. The toolbox contains routines for the reduction of full symmetric matrices to banded form and the reduction of banded matrices to narrower banded or tridiagonal form, with optional accumulation of the orthogonal transformations, as well as repacking routines for storage rearrangement. ...

We investigate and compare stable parallel algorithms for solving diagonally dominant and general narrow-banded linear systems of equations. Narrow-banded means that the bandwidth is very small compared with the matrix order and is typically between 1 and 100. The solvers compared are the banded system solvers of ScaLAPACK [11] and those investigated by Arbenz and Hegland [3, 6]. For the diagon...

The age and origin of the quartz-amphibole-pyroxene (qap) gneiss from the island of Akilia, southern West Greenland, have been the subject of intense debate since the light C-isotope composition of graphite inclusions in apatite was interpreted to indicate the presence of Earth's earliest biological activity. Although this claim for biogenic relicts has been vigorously challenged, the possibili...

Abstract Recycled materials and by-products could help solve the waste crisis support circular economy. The aim of this study was to compare performance potentially available wastes in Morocco local rock Gneiss, for use sensible heat thermal energy storage. A transfer model developed undertake benchmark, a control volume approach an implicit scheme have been used modelling equations. concludes ...

Amphibolite blocks from an Archaean (2.9 Ga) trondhjemite-agmatite complex in the Lewisian at Gruinard Bay have a varied trace element and R E E content. Whilst some of the variability is attributable to element mobility during high-grade metamorphism and subsequent trondhjemite magmatism, it is for the main part considered to be a primary feature of the amphibolites. The observed trace element...
