(1982)The validity of simple equations for the penetration of diesel fuel sprays in engine cylinders was investigated. Several forms of these simple equations obtained from the Literature were compared to engine data, both with ...
-
(2012-04-23)Paramecium tetraurelia is a large, single-celled, ciliated protist. Short cell cycle times (4.5-5 hours) and manipulable Mendelian genetics have made it an attractive research species, particularly for developmental genetics ...
-
(2013-02-06)Mountain areas are prime locations for mass movement activity, as a result of their steep slopes and large amount of local relief. As a rapid mass movement phenomena, landslides are responsible for a considerable numbers ...
