Variation Characteristics of Mass-Loss Rate in Dynamic Seepage System of the Broken Rocks
When the collapse column and its adjacent rocks in complex geological structures are disturbed by mining, concomitant fine particle migration, mass loss, and porous structure variation during the water seepage process in broken rocks are the inherent ...

Evaluation of Loss Coefficient For Stand Alone Radiator [PDF]
In the UK, domestic heating contributes to about 40% of annual energy consumption. Effective and efficient heating systems are essential to drive the cost of heating down.

Study of the mass-loss rate from the Sun [PDF]
We investigate the temporal evolution of the yearly total mass-loss rate (YTMLR) from the Sun through coronal mass ejections (CMEs) over solar cycles 23 and 24. The mass determination of CMEs can be subject to significant uncertainty.

Modelling of heat and mass transfer processes in neonatology [PDF]
This paper reviews some of our recent applications of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to model heat and mass transfer problems in neonatology and investigates the major heat and mass transfer mechanisms taking place in medical devices such as ...

Explaining individual variation in patterns of mass loss in breeding birds [PDF]
Background Studies of birds have a disproportionate representation in the literature on life-history evolution, because of the (apparent) ease with which the costs and benefits can be quantified and manipulated. During reproduction, birds frequently show

The calculation of Afρ and mass loss rate for comets [PDF]
Ab initio calculations of Afρ are presented using Mie scattering theory and a Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) dust outflow model in support of the Rosetta mission and its target 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (CG).

Uncertain Demand, Consumer Loss Aversion, and Flat-Rate Tariffs [PDF]
The so called flat-rate bias is a well documented phenomenon caused by consumers' desire to be insured against fluctuations in their billing amounts. This paper shows that expectation-based loss aversion provides a formal explanation for this bias.

An in-situ method for assessing soil aggregate stability in burned landscapes
Due to soil repellency in burned areas, slope runoff and soil erodibility escalates following forest fires, increasing the vulnerability to post-fire debris flows.

Rate Equation and Scaling for Fragmentation with Mass Loss [PDF]
A linear rate equation describes fragmentation with continuous and discrete mass loss typified by consumption of porous reactive solids and two-phase heterogeneous solids. For a mass-dependent fragmentation rate xα and a continuous-mass-loss rate εxγ,σ=γ-

High mass-loss asymptotic giant branch stars detected by the Midcourse Space Experiment in the 'intermediate' and 'outer' Galactic bulge [PDF]
We present a study of Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) point sources in the Galactic bulge (|l| < 3°, 1° < |b| < 5°), observed in the A, C, D and E bands (8–21μm), with a total area ∼48 deg2 and more than 7000 detected sources in the MSXD band ...
