Abstract:
The multiple scattering of SH waves by isosceles triangular hill, semicircle depression, and isosceles trapezoidal hill in the solid half-space is studied. The complex model is divided into multiple subdomains by using the region matching method, then the wave functions in each subdomain are constructed by using the fractional-order Bessel function, and finally, the infinite algebraic equations for solving the unknown coefficients in the wave function are established by using the multipolar coordinate technique and the complex function method according to the boundary conditions.

Abstract:
Turbulent flow fields over topographies are important in the area of wind energy. The roughness, slope, and shape of a hill are important parameters affecting the flow fields over topographies. However, these effects are always examined separately. The systematic investigations of these effects are limited, the coupling between these effects is still unrevealed, and the turbulence structures as a function of these effects are still unclear. Therefore, in the present study, the flow fields over twelve simplified isolated hills with different roughness conditions, slopes, and hill shapes are exa

And a standing wave function is constructed which satisfies the zero-stress conditions at the triangular wedges.

Abstract:
The pseudo-Lindley distribution which was introduced in Zeghdoudi and Nedjar (2016) is studied with regards to it upper tail. In that regard, and when the underlying distribution function follows the Pseudo-Lindley law, we investigate the the behavior of its values, the asymptotic normality of the Hill estimator and the double-indexed generalized Hill statistic process (Ngom and Lo, 2016), the asymptotic normality of the records values and the the moment problem.

Abstract:
Sigmoid functions were used to approximate the cumulative gold production in Ghana. The functions examined were the logistic, Gompertz, Gaussian, Probit and the Hill, which were then used to predict into the future. Although all the five approximated models gave a good estimation of the reality, the Gompertz function was identified to give the best approximation of the observed trend of gold production in Ghana. The model was selected based on its high proportion of variance explained (R2 = 0.9402) as well as having the least value in terms of error (RMSE) and information loss (AIC). The model

Abstract:
Todd, K (1980) proposed the following definition for springs: “a concentrated discharge of groundwater that emerges on the ground as a stream of water that flows freely”. Spring is distinguished from water leak that is a normally diffused but extended (linear or 2D) slower movement of groundwater towards the ground surface. Uprush is every groundwater emergence on the ground surface or through the bed of water bodies (river, lake, sea). In the context of hydrogeology springs and uprushes in general are in fact “overflows” of aquifers; hence they serve as aquifer discharge mechanisms. Springs e

Abstract:
SUMMARY An enduring hypothesis in exercise physiology holds that a limiting cardiorespiratory function determines maximal exercise performance as a result of specific metabolic changes in the exercising skeletal muscle, so-called peripheral fatigue. The origins of this classical hypothesis can be traced to work undertaken by Nobel Laureate A. V. Hill and his colleagues in London between 1923 and 1925. According to their classical model, peripheral fatigue occurs only after the onset of heart fatigue or failure. Thus, correctly interpreted, the Hill hypothesis predicts that it is the heart, not

Archaeological research carried out on the hill and at its foot in the 1960s and 1970s was of limited range due to the existence of the Jewish cemetery.

Abstract:
Introduction: Anterior shoulder dislocation and recurrent glenohumeral instability is very common in the young active population. It is usually caused by trauma, and often compounded by associated bony Bankart and Hill-Sachs lesions, which distort the anatomy. This causes instability and dysfunction of the joint and these can be addressed by, amongst others, a Latarjet surgical procedure. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that since the Latarjet procedure results in stability and good functional outcome, our results are expected to compare favourably to the rest of the published literature.

Abstract The Northridge earthquake caused 1.78 g acceleration in the east-west direction at a site in Tarzana, California, located about 6 km south of the mainshock epicenter. The accelerograph was located atop a hill about 15-m high, 500-m long, and 130-m wide, striking about N78°E. During the aftershock sequence, a temporary array of 21 three-component geophones was deployed in six radial lines centered on the accelerograph, with an average sensor spacing of 35 m. Station C00 was located about 2 m from the accelerograph. We inverted aftershock spectra to obtain average relative site response

The blast-wave fit results are well fitting to the experimental data measured by several collaborations. In a particular superposition with Hagedorn function, both the excitation functions of kinetic freeze-out temperature ( T 0 ) of emission source and transverse flow velocity ( β T ) of produced

Abstract:
Objective Hill-type muscle models are widely employed in simulations of human movement. Yet, the parameters underlying these models are difficult or impossible to measure in vivo. Prior studies demonstrate that Hill-type muscle parameters are encoded within dynamometric data. But, a generalizable approach for estimating these parameters from dynamometric data has not been realized. We aimed to leverage musculoskeletal models and artificial neural networks to classify one Hill-type muscle parameter (maximum isometric force) from easily measurable dynamometric data (simulated lateral pinch force
