Development of engineering design tools to help reduce apple bruising [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A large percentage of apples are wasted each year due to damage such as bruising. The apple journey from orchard to supermarket is very complex and apples are subjected to a variety of static and dynamic loads that could result in this damage occurring ...

Numerical modelling of wave penetration in Ostend Harbour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The initial Ostend harbour entrance at the North Sea coast of Belgium is being modified and extended with two new rubble-mound breakwaters. Through an integrated study of the wave penetration in Ostend harbour, the waves are being acquired by prototype ...

A DRP‐4DVar‐Based Coupled Data Assimilation System With a Simplified Off‐Line Localization Technique for Decadal Predictions

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
A new weakly coupled data assimilation (CDA) system based on the dimension‐reduced projection four‐dimensional variational data assimilation (DRP‐4DVar) with a simplified off‐line localization technique and a fully coupled model, i.e., the Grid‐point ...

A boundary element regularised Stokeslet method applied to cilia and flagella-driven flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A boundary element implementation of the regularised Stokeslet method of Cortez is applied to cilia and flagella-driven flows in biology. Previously-published approaches implicitly combine the force discretisation and the numerical quadrature used to ...

ESPC-BCS-Net: A network-based CS method for underwater image compression and reconstruction

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) is a typical energy-limited and bandwidth-limited system where the technical bottleneck is the asymmetry between the massive demand for information access and the limited communication bandwidth.

Numerical Modelling of Optical Trapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Optical trapping is a widely used technique, with many important applications in biology and metrology. Complete modelling of trapping requires calculation of optical forces, primarily a scattering problem, and non-optical forces.

COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE USE OF ZEOLITE AND PRECIPITATION AGENTS TO RETARD SCALE FORMATION IN THE SEAWATER PRETREATMENT PROCESS

open access: yesJournal of Fundamental and Applied Sciences, 2018
The scale formation in heat transfer surfaces in seawater desalination plants by multi stage flash processes (MSF). This scale is formed during the precipitation of salts containing in seawater such as calcium and magnesium carbonates.

Southwestern Atlantic ocean fronts detected from the fusion of multi-source remote sensing data by a deep learning model

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
In the Southwestern Atlantic, the Falkland Current intrudes onto the South American shelf, resulting in the meeting of two water masses which are completely different in temperature and dynamic characteristics, thus generating the Southwestern Atlantic ...
