This paper addresses an experimental investigation in the hydrodynamic behavior of a modified slotted sieve tray. Slotted sieve tray (Push valve sieve tray) is a sieve tray that the push valves have been utilized on the tray deck to eliminate liquid gradients and non-uniformity of liquid distribution on the tray. The air-water system was used in an industrial scale experimental rig with an inte...

The modern sieve method began from Brun’s fundamental work in 1915. This remained the dominant work until 1941 when Ju. V. Linnik expanded on the sieve method. In 1947, A. Selberg advanced the sieve method by using his upper bound sieve. His sieve weights, are fundamentally different from Brun’s thus he brought a structural change into the sieve method. The linear sieve was developed by Rosser ...

We describe an approach to automatic parallelisation of programs written in Sieve C++ (Codeplay’s C++ extension), using the Sieve compiler and runtime system. In Sieve C++, the programmer encloses a performance-critical region of code in a sieve block, thereby instructing the compiler to delay sideeffects until the end of the block. The Sieve system partitions code inside a sieve block into ind...

In minor veins of leaves of Beta vulgaris L. (sugar beet) yellows virus particles were found both in parenchyma cells and in mature sieve elements. In parenchyma cells the particles were usually confined to the cytoplasm, that is, they were absent from the vacuoles. In the sieve elements, which at maturity have no vacuoles, the particles were scattered throughout the cell. In dense aggregations...

The security of pairing-based cryptography is based on the hardness of solving the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) over extension field GF(p) of characteristic p and degree n. Joux et al. proposed an asymptotically fastest algorithm for solving DLP over GF(p) (JLSV06-NFS) as the extension of the number field sieve over prime field GF(p) (JL03-NFS). The lattice sieve is often used for a largesc...

To protect against loss of photo-assimilate-rich phloem sap, plants have evolved several mechanisms to plug phloem sieve tubes in response to damage. In many Fabaceae, each sieve element contains a discrete proteinaceous body called a forisome, which, in response to damage, rapidly transforms from a condensed configuration that does not impede the flow of sap to a dispersed configuration that p...

Preface Sieve methods have had a long and fruitful history. The sieve of Eratosthenes (around 3rd century B.C.) was a device to generate prime numbers. Later Legendre used it in his studies of the prime number counting function π(x). Sieve methods bloomed and became a topic of intense investigation after the pioneering work of Viggo Brun (see [Bru16],[Bru19], [Bru22]). Using his formulation of ...

The large sieve has its origins in the work of Linnik and Rényi. It was developed to deal with sequences that avoid a positive proportion of residue classes. It was later simplified by Roth, Bombieri, Davenport, Halberstam, Montgomery, Gallagher and many others. For a survey see Montgomery [12] and Bombieri [1]. It is known that Montgomery’s large sieve [12] is a useful method when sifting sequ...

Sieve elements are one of the least understood cell types in plants. Translocation velocities and volume flow to supply sinks with photoassimilates greatly depend on the geometry of the microfluidic sieve tube system and especially on the anatomy of sieve plates and sieve plate pores. Several models for phloem translocation have been developed, but appropriate data on the geometry of pores, pla...
