MHD Maxwell Hybrid Nanofluid Transport Featuring Solar Radiation and Thermo‐Diffusive Impacts Over a Permeable Slanted Stretching Sheet

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hybrid nanofluids have emerged as next‐generation working fluids for advanced engineering application due to their superior heat transport capability in relation to the conventional nanofluids. Motivated by the rising demand for accurate prediction of transport phenomena under realistic operating situations, the present study examines the ...

Gas‐Phase Residence Time Distribution Characteristics in a Gas–Liquid Stirred Tank With Multiple Impellers

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Residence time distribution (RTD) is a standard tool for characterizing the hydrodynamic performance of stirred tanks. In this work, gas‐phase RTD was experimentally investigated in a gas–liquid stirred tank equipped with six multiple‐impeller configurations using four impeller types (WH, HEDT, CBY, and PDT). The effects of impeller speed, gas

Lateral displacements of commonly found gravity retaining walls in Sri Lanka due to seismic action

, 2013
Gravity type retaining walls have been widely used to retain soil in Sri Lanka. However, it was reported that the performance of gravity type retaining walls during earthquake is poor.

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

Male reproductive system in stenopodidean shrimps: Unveiling basal reproductive traits in shrimp‐like Pleocyemata (Stenopodidae and Spongicolidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Stenopodidea represents one of the basal lineages within Pleocyemata, yet the male reproductive system (MRS) of this group remains poorly understood, with limited information available regarding its morphology and function. This study provides the first detailed description of the MRS in four stenopodidean shrimp species from two families ...

Cortical bone geometry and static gravitational loads in neosauropod dinosaurs: Implications for biomechanical constraints on terrestrial gigantism

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sauropod dinosaurs achieved unprecedented terrestrial gigantism, raising questions about the biomechanical limits of bone under extreme gravitational loads. We estimated static gravitational pressures (Pg) on appendicular cortical bone in neosauropods, including diplodocoids, brachiosaurids, and titanosaurs.

Evolution of the male reproductive system in Penaeoidea (Dendrobranchiata): Integrating morphological and molecular data

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Penaeoidea shrimps exhibit substantial diversity in reproductive morphology, but the evolutionary history of the male reproductive system (MRS) and its congruence with molecular phylogenies remain poorly understood. This study characterized MRS morphology across Penaeoidea and used these morphological data, together with a molecular phylogeny ...

Deciphering the Palimpsest: Chronological Uncertainty and the Interpretation of Mining Landscapes at Písečný vrch (Czech Republic)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigated the Písečný vrch (Czech Republic), a site exploited for quartz mining in both prehistoric times and the 20th century. Due to their morphological similarity across all mining periods, the differentiation between pits with archaeological potential and recent ones is challenging.
