Abstract:
This paper describes a velocity and length scale approach to low-Reynolds-number k–ε modeling, which formulates the eddy viscosity on the normal component of turbulence and a length scale. The normal component of turbulence is modeled based on the dissipation and distance from the wall and is bounded by the isotropic condition. The model accounts for the anisotropy of the dissipation and the reduced length of mixing in the near wall region. The kinetic energy and dissipation rate were computed from the k and ε transport equations of Durbin (1993). The model was tested for a wide range of turbu

Abstract:
The developed mathematical description of heat treatment of the crushed wood in rotary drum dryers, and also the results of the mathematical description of the studied process is presented in the article. The results of mathematical modeling have shown that with increase in the diameter of a drum by 3 times its length can be reduced almost by 7 times due to the increase in the relative stay time of particles in flight. It provides the best interaction of particles with the heat carrier. Increase in speed of rotation of the drum twice also allows reducing its length almost by 3 times, but at th

Abstract:
The high leakage current in deep submicron regimes is becoming a significant contributor to the power dissipation of CMOS circuits as the threshold voltage, channel length, and gate oxide thickness are reduced. Consequently, the identification and modeling of different leakage components is very important for the estimation and reduction of leakage power, especially in the low power applications. This paper explores the various transistor intrinsic leakage mechanisms including the weak inversion, the drain-induced barrier lowering, the gate-induced drain leakage, and the gate oxide tunneling.

The standard ASCE 41-13 Seismic Evaluation and Retrofit of Existing Buildings includes new provisions for linear and non-linear modeling parameters and acceptance criteria for rocking shallow foundations. The new modeling parameters and acceptance criteria were largely based on model tests on rectangular rocking foundations with a limited range of footing length to width ratio (L/B). New model test results are presented, including a systematic variation of L/B and also non-rectangular (I-shaped) footings.

Abstract The craniofacial disorder mandibulofacial dysostosis Guion-Almeida type is caused by haploinsufficiency of the U5 snRNP gene EFTUD2/SNU114. However, it is unclear how reduced expression of this core pre-mRNA splicing factor leads to craniofacial defects. Here we use a CRISPR-Cas9 nickase strategy to generate a human EFTUD2-knockdown cell line and show that reduced expression of EFTUD2 leads to diminished proliferative ability of these cells, increased sensitivity to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the mis-expression of several genes involved in the ER stress response.

Abstract:
Arvand River Estuary is the most important inland water body of Iran and its discharge has been reduced in the last decades due to construction of several dams. Hence, a two-dimensional laterally averaged time dependent hydrodynamic and water quality model called CE-QUAL-W2 was applied to this estuary to assess the impacts of river discharge reduction. The model was first implemented with three different closure schemes for parameterization of vertical transport of mass and momentum. It was found that the W2N scheme performs better than the other schemes in predicting the vertical salinity str

Spring nozzles are widely used in deaerators. The spray issued from a spring nozzle was studied numerically with an adapted volume of fluid method combined with a continuous surface force model to capture the gas–liquid interface dynamics. The present analysis focuses on the formation of a water film and the generation of droplets near the spring nozzle outlet. The numerical simulation results show that the water film breaks up to droplets at the location 20~25cm from the nozzle exit vertically.

A steady, three-dimensional Navier–Stokes solver that utilizes a pressure-based technique for incompressible flows is used to simulate the three-dimensional flow field in a turbine cascade.

A low-Reynolds-number form of a two-equation turbulence model is used to account for the turbulence effects.
