3D stability analysis of Rayleigh-Benard convection of a liquid metal layer in the presence of a magnetic field-effect of wall electrical conductivity
(2014)Rayleigh-Benard stability of a liquid metal layer of rectangular cross section is examined in the presence of a strong magnetic field that is aligned with the horizontal direction of the cross section. The latter is much ... -
ADVANCES IN MICRO-MANUFACTURING APPLYING TRIBOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES
(2010)Micro-manufacturing is a cover term for manufacturing processes applied to products possessing micro- and nano-scopic features. Due to the scaling of surface phenomena, the tribological aspects of such processes are much ... -
Dissipative Particle Dynamics investigation of parameters affecting planar nanochannel flows
(2011)The method of Dissipative Particle Dynamics is applied to investigate the effect of the parameters involved in a nano-channel Poisseuille flow. The parameters considered here include (a) fluid/wall interactions, (b) wall ... -
Dynamo transition in low-dimensional models
(2008)Two low-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic models containing three velocity and three magnetic modes are described. One of them (nonhelical model) has zero kinetic and current helicity, while the other model (helical) has ... -
Effects of the Val211Gly substitution on molecular dynamics of the CMY-2 cephalosporinase: Implications on hydrolysis of expanded-spectrum cephalosporins
(2011)CMY-30, a naturally occurring class C beta-lactamase differing from the Citrobacter freundii-derived CMY-2 by a Val211Gly substitution in the X-loop, exhibits increased hydrolytic efficiency against ceftazidime and cefotaxime. ... -
Evaluation of a statistical downscaling procedure for the estimation of climate change impacts on droughts
(2009)Despite uncertainties in future climates, there is considerable evidence that there will be substantial impacts on the environment and human interests. Climate change will affect the hydrology of a region through changes ... -
Numerical modelling of simulated blood flow in idealized composite arterial coronary grafts: Transient flow
(2008)In composite arterial coronary grafts (CACGs), transport phenomena and geometry may considerably alter blood flow dynamics. CACGs aim at revascularizing pathological arteries according to the human anatomy. However, the ... -
Stochastic analysis and prioritization of the influence of parameter uncertainty on the predicted pressure profile in heterogeneous, unsaturated soils
(2006)This article utilizes a Monte Carlo stochastic framework to investigate the influence on the mean and variance of the predicted mean pressure head profile of statistical assumptions regarding the parameters that enter the ... -
Three-way catalytic converter modeling as a modern engineering design tool
(2004)The competition to deliver ultra low emitting vehicles at a reasonable cost is driving the automotive industry to invest significant manpower and test lab resources in the design optimization of increasingly complex exhaust ...
