Abstract The calculation of the friction factor involved in the Darcy-Weisbach equation has a key role in the accurate assessment of distributed head losses. For the turbulent flow regime, this friction factor was mathematically expressed in the form of the Colebrook-White (C-W) equation, widely accepted by engineers and scientists. Nevertheless, the C-W equation is an implicit one and must be solved using numerical methods. This is a major disadvantage for the average engineer, who always prefers an explicit equation which could be easily integrated into his familiar spreadsheet environment.

The importance of treatment planning of head and neck malignancies arises from the necessity to achieve homogenous doses to localized target volume surrounded by normal structures, which can produce acute and long-term morbidity. In many radiotherapy departments, a commonly employed strategy is a 3-field technique. Bilateral parallel-opposed fields are matched to anterior lower neck field. In recent years, Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) is used to radiate head and neck tumors. When the target extends to the lower neck regions, abutment of upper IMRT and lower neck fields is required.

He studied at Riga Polytechnic Institute (RPI) and stayed in Russia during World War I. After returning to Latvia in the beginning of 1919, he graduated from the Baltic Technical University (BTU; Baltische Technische Hochschule, also Baltic Higher Technical School), which was established on the basis of RPI. J. Jagars participated in the activities of the Latvian Social Democratic Workers’ Party (LSDWP), which supported his becoming the Head of the Riga City Con

Abstract Setting elevation is an important factor affecting the safe operation of pumps, and the empirical calculation method in engineering cannot fully reflect the cavitation characteristics. In this paper, numerical simulation of cavitation in double-suction centrifugal pump with clearances is carried out. The cavitation characteristics under different flow rates was analyzed based on the setting elevation from the empirical method. It was found that there was cavitation inception under both large flow rate and small flow rate. The cavitation characteristics of the pump with different net p

Abstract:

The performance of German airships during the war, and the double crossing of the Atlantic by the airship R34 in 1919, sufficiently impressed the Air Ministry that it embarked on a British airship programme which produced R38 and R80. The Ministry was undoubtedly deterred by the appalling R38 disaster in 1921 but, presumably as a result of Professor Bairstow’s demonstration of the inexcusable inadequacy of the R38 design, they did not abandon their plans. After all R80, to the design of B.N. Wallis, the great engineer who became famous as Sir Barnes Wallis after the 1939-45 war, had been a suc

✓Guido da Vigevano was an Italian physician and engineer who lived in the 13th and 14th centuries. He was the first scientist who used pictures to illustrate his anatomical descriptions, developing for the first time a close relationship between anatomical studies and artistic drawings. This was further developed in the Renaissance. In his textbook Anathomia are displayed six plates showing for the first time neuroanatomical structures and techniques: dissection of the head by means of trephination, and depictions of the meninges, cerebrum, and spinal cord.

Explosive wave caused by pre-blasting would destroy stress balance around entries, and definitely result in entry disturbed zone (EDZ) being loosen zone.

Abstract:

Aluminium coatings that are formed by physical vapour deposition (PVD) on rolled steel products are more resistant to atmospheric and seawater corrosion than zinc coatings. We developed a coating thickness analyzer (CTA) with an X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measuring head, that is integrated into the PVD pilot line. In this study, to conduct measurements of elements with atomic numbers less than 20 while avoiding the problem of registration of light elements, the measuring head was integrated into a process vacuum chamber to maintain a vacuum during the measurements.

Abstract:

A piston is a component of reciprocating engines, pumps and gas compressors. It is located in a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. In an engine, its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. The alloy from which a piston is made not only determines its strength and wears characteristics, but also its thermal expansion characteristics. Hotter engines require more stable alloys to maintain close tolerances without scuffing. The normal temperature of gasoline engine exhaust is approximately 650ºC (923ºK).

Inter-hospital transport of premature infants is increasingly common, given the centralisation of neonatal intensive care. However, it is known to be associated with anomalously increased morbidity, most notably brain injury, and with increased mortality from multifactorial causes. Surprisingly, there have been relatively few previous studies investigating the levels of mechanical shock and vibration hazard present during this vehicular transport pathway. Using a custom inertial datalogger, and analysis software, we quantify vibration and linear head acceleration. Mounting multiple inertial se

The software EPANET is designed to simulate the movement of water (incompressible fluid) in hydraulic networks. When designing ventilation systems, the density of air inside them is also often considered constant. Thus, theoretically, the application can be used to simulate the operation of many types of ventilation systems. It is shown that, provided the system is represented as a graph using the proposed method of adjusting the gravitational head, EPANET can be successfully used to calculate natural and hybrid ventilation systems. At the same time, not only the required accuracy is achieved,

More seriously, your mechanical gaffe is a sign of your misunderstanding of Deleuze.
