Numerical Simulation of the Flow of a Power Law Fluid in an Elbow Bend
(2010-07-14)
A numerical study of flow of power law fluid in an elbow bend has been carried out. The motivation behind this study is to analyze the velocity profiles, especially the pattern of the secondary flow of power law fluid in ...
Meteorological Factors Regulating the Population Expansion and Contraction of Amblyomma maculatum (Acari: Ixodidae) in Texas
(2010-10-12)
The interaction of tick species and the microclimate that they inhabit is a subject that is frequently studied. The known biology of the Gulf Coast tick, Amblyomma maculatum Koch (Acari: Ixodidae), was used to conduct ...
A Comparison of Sport Consumption Motives Between American Students and Asian International Students
(2011-02-22)
The purpose of this study was to explore the differences between American students and Asian international students' frequency of sport spectating, motivation, team identification, future behavior and perceived barriers ...
Dynamics of Wave Breaking at a Coastal Sea Wall
(2010-07-14)
Structural designs barely consider the dynamic scenario of a well-developed
impinging wave hitting the structure. The usual area of focus is on static and stability
factors (e.g. drag, inertia, resistive forces related to ...
Prediction of Room Air Diffusion for Reduced Diffuser Flow Rates
(2011-02-22)
With the ever-increasing availability of high performance computing facilities, numerical simulation through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is increasingly used to predict the room air distribution. CFD is becoming an ...
IMPACT OF DYNAMIC VOLTAGE SCALING (DVS) ON CIRCUIT OPTIMIZATION
(2010-01-16)
Circuit designers perform optimization procedures targeting speed and power
during the design of a circuit. Gate sizing can be applied to optimize for speed, while
Dual-VT and Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) can be applied ...
Pressure Transient Analysis and Production Analysis for New Albany Shale Gas Wells
(2010-10-12)
Shale gas has become increasingly important to United States energy supply.
During recent decades, the mechanisms of shale gas storage and transport were gradually
recognized. Gas desorption was also realized and quantitatively ...
Interactive Stereoscopic Installation: A Photographic Collage
(2010-10-12)
The research involves the creation of an interactive installation showcasing the
dynamic nature of human visual observation of a still photograph. Using an eye
tracker as an input device, the data collected is used to ...
Characterization of Roabiba Sandstones Reservoir in Bintuni Field, Papua, Indonesia
(2011-02-22)
Bintuni Field has two Middle Jurassic gas reservoirs, Upper and Lower Roabiba
Sandstone reservoirs, with the estimated reserve from eight appraisal drilled wells of
6.08 tcf. The field has not been producing commercially. ...
Combination Anthelmintics to Control Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Foals
(2010-01-16)
Two common nematodes that affect young horses are cyathostomes (small
strongyles) and Parascaris equorum (ascarids). It has been recently found that
populations of these nematodes are resistant to common anthelmintics used ...
