Materializing Convection [PDF]

open access: yesArchitecture and Culture, 2019
This essay uses a physical modeling technique from mechanical engineering, the filling box, as a speculative architectural design tool. In the filling box, dyed salt water is injected into acrylic models submerged within a tank of fresh water, simulating the introduction of cold air into a warm environment or, when mirrored, the introduction of warm ...

Upgrading Air Distribution System in the Thermal Units for Fish and Meat Products Aiming at Improving Efficiency of Heat-exchange Processes

open access: yesAquatic Sciences and Engineering, 2021
The issue of the equivalence of the physical parameters of the working medium in the heat-treatment zone of fish and meat products is solved by organizing uniform high-speed fields of the working medium in the working area, which is ensured by the ...

Protein-Bound Uremic Toxins in Hemodialysis Patients Relate to Residual Kidney Function, Are Not Influenced by Convective Transport, and Do Not Relate to Outcome

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) are predominantly excreted by renal tubular secretion and hardly removed by traditional hemodialysis (HD). Accumulation of PBUTs is proposed to contribute to the increased morbidity and mortality of patients with end ...

Convective Initiation Proxies for Nowcasting Precipitation Severity Using the MSG-SEVIRI Rapid Scan

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
In this study, we investigate the ability of several convective initiation predictors based on satellite infrared observations to distinguish convective weak precipitation events from those leading to intense rainfall.

Two-Dimensional Structure of Flow Channels and Associated Upward Field-Aligned Currents: Model and Observations

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Flow bursts are a major component of transport within the plasma sheet and auroral oval (where they are referred to as flow channels), and lead to a variety of geomagnetic disturbances as they approach the inner plasma sheet (equatorward portion of the ...

A benchmark study on mantle convection in a 3-D spherical shell using CitcomS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
As high-performance computing facilities and sophisticated modeling software become available, modeling mantle convection in a three-dimensional (3-D) spherical shell geometry with realistic physical parameters and processes becomes increasingly feasible.

Model of smoothing roughness on GaAs wafer surface by using nonabrasive chemical-and-mechanical polishing

open access: yesSemiconductor Physics, Quantum Electronics & Optoelectronics, 2017
Studied experimentally in this work has been the process of smoothing relief roughness on the GaAs wafer surface by using the method of contactless nonabrasive chemical-and-mechanical polishing under conditions of its rotational movement relatively to ...

Role of defects in the onset of wall-induced granular convection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the onset of the wall-induced convection in vertically vibrated granular matter by means of experiments and two-dimensional computer simulations.

A Stochastic Framework for Modeling the Population Dynamics of Convective Clouds

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2018
A stochastic prognostic framework for modeling the population dynamics of convective clouds and representing them in climate models is proposed. The framework follows the nonequilibrium statistical mechanical approach to constructing a master equation ...

Stellar Fluxes as Probes of Convection in Stellar Atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Convection and turbulence in stellar atmospheres have a significant effect on the emergent flux from late-type stars. The theoretical advancements in convection modelling over recent years have proved challenging for the observers to obtain measurements ...
