Microflow leakage through the clearance of a metal-metal seal [PDF]
The motivation behind this study is to simulate high pressure gas flow through the clearance between a valve seat and disc when in a closed position using a representative model.

Analytical model for the prediction of pulsations in a cold-gas scale-model of a Solid Rocket Motor [PDF]
old gas scale model experiments (1/30) demonstrate that coupling of vortex shedding with acoustic standing waves can produce pressure oscillations of the same level as observed in large Solid Rocket Motors.

A Dominant Founder Lineage Has Possible Fitness Costs for the Endangered Mexican Grey Wolf
ABSTRACT The Mexican grey wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) is an endangered and genetically distinct subspecies of grey wolf adapted to the warm climates of the southwestern United States and Mexico. Following centuries of eradication efforts, Mexican grey wolves were protected under the Endangered Species Act in 1976, prompting an international ex situ ...

Nanoscopic Mapping of the Extracellular Space in Amyloid Plaque‐rich Cortex
The extracellular space and diffusion around amyloid plaques are examined using shadow imaging and single‐particle tracking. Increased diffusivity is found near plaques, extracellular matrix alterations, and plaque core penetrability that varies with amyloid phenotype.

Precessing jets from a moving source and bright X-ray filaments in galaxy clusters
We present hydrodynamical calculations carried out with the 3D yguazu-a code of a precessing jet model, which interacts with a plane parallel wind. This scenario describes an extragalactic jet, in which the jet source is in motion with respect to the ...

Thermal Hydraulics Design and Analysis Methodology for a Solid-Core Nuclear Thermal Rocket Engine Thrust Chamber [PDF]
Nuclear thermal propulsion is a leading candidate for in-space propulsion for human Mars missions. This chapter describes a thermal hydraulics design and analysis methodology developed at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, in support of the nuclear ...

ABSTRACT Our co‐authored article investigates how grassroots arts and culture organizations engage technology as a site of justice‐oriented practice. Drawing on primary‐source interviews with Canadian grassroots arts and culture organizations, we outline an EDI‐infused technological praxis we call CANTech Justice (CTJ).

Wildlife tourism can benefit conservation but also causes stress in socially and cognitively complex species like Asian elephants. Using multi‐year behavioral observations in Kuiburi National Park, Thailand, we identified clear thresholds for tourism variables (e.g., vehicles, people, distance, noise) beyond which elephants exhibited increased stress ...

The Discovery of the Hippocampal Place Cells
ABSTRACT This paper describes the events leading up to the discovery of the place cells in 1971 for which the author received the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 2014, together with May‐Britt and Edvard Moser. In addition, it explores some of the ideas and influences that contributed to the interpretation of that finding as evidence for the ...

The generation of noise by the fluctuations in gas temperature into a turbine [PDF]
An actuator disc analysis is used to calculate the pressure fluctuations produced by the convection of temperature fluctuations (entropy waves) into one or more rows of blades. The perturbations in pressure and temperature must be small, but the mean
