Effect of the contraction ratio upon viscoelastic fluid flow in three-dimensional square-square contractions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this work we investigate the laminar flow through square–square sudden contractions with various contraction ratios (CR¼2.4, 4,8and12), using a Newtonian fluid and a shear-thinning viscoelastic fluid.

Three-dimensional flow of Newtonian and Boger fluids in square-square contractions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The flow of a Newtonian fluid and a Boger fluid through sudden square–square contractions was investigated experimentally aiming to characterize the flow and provide quantitative data for benchmarking in a complex three-dimensional flow.

Smart Contracts Contracts [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Blockchain, 2020
This paper explores the connection between software contracts and smart contracts. Despite the assonance, these two terms denote quite different concepts: software contracts are logical properties of software components, while smart contracts are programs executed on blockchains. What is the relation between them?

Contractions of 2D 2nd Order Quantum Superintegrable Systems and the Askey Scheme for Hypergeometric Orthogonal Polynomials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We show explicitly that all 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions are limiting cases of a single system: the generic 3-parameter potential on the 2-sphere, S9 in our listing.

Mirror illusion reduces motor cortical inhibition in the ipsilateral primary motor cortex during forceful unilateral muscle contractions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Forceful, unilateral contractions modulate corticomotor paths targeting the resting, contralateral hand. However, it is unknown if mirror-viewing of a slowly moving but forcefully contracting hand would additionally affect these paths.

The Complexity of Contracts [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Computing, 2020
We initiate the study of computing (near-)optimal contracts in succinctly representable principal-agent settings. Here optimality means maximizing the principal's expected payoff over all incentive-compatible contracts---known in economics as "second-best" solutions. We also study a natural relaxation to approximately incentive-compatible contracts. We

Pharmacological study on the enhancing effects of U46619 on guinea pig urinary bladder smooth muscle contraction induced by acetylcholine and α,β-methylene ATP and the possible involvement of protein kinase C

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2023
We examined whether U46619 (a prostanoid TP receptor agonist) could enhance the contractions of guinea pig urinary bladder smooth muscle (UBSM) in response to acetylcholine (ACh) and an ATP analog (α,β-methylene ATP (αβ-MeATP)) through stimulation of the

Recent Advances on the Results for Nonunique Fixed in Various Spaces

open access: yesAxioms, 2019
In this short survey, we aim to underline the importance of the non-unique fixed point results in various abstract spaces. We recall a brief background on the topic and we combine, collect and unify several existing non-unique fixed points in the ...
