Exact Solution for Non-Self-Similar Wave-Interaction Problem during Two-Phase Four-Component Flow in Porous Media

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
Analytical solutions for one-dimensional two-phase multicomponent flows in porous media describe processes of enhanced oil recovery, environmental flows of waste disposal, and contaminant propagation in subterranean reservoirs and water management in ...

A nonlinear functional for general scalar hyperbolic conservation laws

open access: yes, 2007
A generalized entropy functional was introduced in [T.-P. Liu, T. Yang, A new entropy functional for scalar conservation laws, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 52 (1999) 1427–1442] for the scalar hyperbolic conservation laws with convex flux function.

Two Shades of Green? Gender Differences in Environmental Concern and Activism

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines gender differences in environmental concern and activism using data from the World Values Survey. The results indicate that women are more likely than men to be concerned about the environment, but are less likely to engage in environmental activism.

Nonlinear Hyperbolic Conservation Laws. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Abstract : The focus of this research project has been the study of systems of conservation laws that lose strict hyperbolicity. Two areas of application, namely isentropic gas dynamics for a van der Waals gas, and multiphase flow in a porous medium were considered.

Numerical schemes for networks of hyperbolic conservation laws [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we propose a procedure to extend classical numerical schemes for hyperbolic conservation laws to networks of hyperbolic conservation laws.

Burrow‐Based Monitoring of Chinese Pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) Reveals Importance of Core Natural Habitat in Hong Kong 中華穿山甲 (Manis pentadactyla)洞穴監測揭示香港內陸郊野地帶的重要性

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, EarlyView.
Relatively little is known about the distribution or habitat requirements of Hong Kong's population of the Chinese pangolin. Between 2018 and 2021 we searched for pangolin burrows and deployed camera traps on the burrows. We then analyzed habitat suitability at multiple scales to determine the factors that are key in driving pangolin distributions in ...

The structure and regularity of admissible BV solutions to hyperbolic conservation laws in one space dimension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis is devoted to the study of the qualitative properties of admissible BV solutions to the strictly hyperbolic conservation laws in one space dimension by using wave-front tracking approximation.

The Non‐Professional Virtues of the Hospice Volunteer

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Volunteers have long played a significant role in hospice care. Much of the care volunteers provide consists of weekly hour‐long in‐home visits. Home‐visiting hospice volunteers are not professionals, nor are they strangers or intimates. Hospice volunteers will not typically face moral dilemmas, nor be called upon to make dramatic decisions ...

On Lie Symmetries of Hyperbolic Model Metric of SL(n, R) Geometry

open access: yesپژوهش‌های ریاضی, 2020
Introduction ‎  Symmetries of an equation are closely related to conservation‎ laws‎. ‎Noether's theorem provides a method for finding conservation laws of differential‎ equations arising from a known Lagrangian and having a known Lie symmetry‎.
