Length correction of 2D discontinuities or perforations at large wavelengths and for linear acoustics [PDF]
This work focuses on the length correction due to radiation effect of a duct discontinuity or at the surface of a perforated plate in the linear acoustic domain and at large wavelengths. Two results are obtained from the comparison of models used in the literature for different geometries of duct discontinuities or perforations.

Deep Learning for Classifying and Characterizing Atmospheric Ducting within the Maritime Setting [PDF]
Real-time characterization of refractivity within the marine atmospheric boundary layer can provide valuable information that can potentially be used to mitigate the effects of atmospheric ducting on radar performance. Many duct characterization models are successful at predicting parameters from a specific refractivity profile associated with a given ...

Dependence of radioactive iodine-131 capture by the lacrimal ducts on the tear production level
Purpose: Secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) is one of the complications of radioiodine therapy. SALDO is formed a few months after therapy if there is a sufficient uptake of radioactive iodine by the nasolacrimal duct.

Utilizing bifurcations to separate particles in spiral inertial microfluidics [PDF]
Particles suspended in fluid flow through a closed duct can focus to specific stable locations in the duct cross-section due to hydrodynamic forces arising from the inertia of the disturbed fluid. Such particle focusing is exploited in biomedical and industrial technologies to separate particles by size.

Nasolacrimal Duct Neoplasm in a Bitch [PDF]
Background: Nasolacrimal duct tumors are divided into primary and secondary, with primary tumors being rare in all species. Secondary involvement of the lacrimal sac and duct can occur from any skin lesion involving the eyelid and/or conjunctiva and from

On turbulent friction in straight ducts with complex cross section: the wall law and the hydraulic diameter [PDF]
We develop predictive formulas for friction resistance in ducts with complex cross-sectional shape based on the use of the log law and neglect of wall shear stress nonuniformities. The traditional hydraulic diameter naturally emerges from the analysis as the controlling length scale for common duct shapes as triangles and regular polygons. The analysis
