Numerical simulation of flow over a rough bed [PDF]
, 2007 This paper presents results of a direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent flow over the rough bed of an open channel. We consider a hexagonal arrangement of spheres on the channel bed.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Integrated clinical and mechanistic analyses identify GALNT7 as a ferroptosis‐suppressive regulator associated with immunotherapy resistance in non‐small cell lung cancer. GALNT7 depletion promotes lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and ferroptosis, enhances CD8+ T‐cell activation and IFN‐γ production, and sensitizes tumors to PD‐1 blockade,

A Skills Gap Analysis of Farmer Directors of US Farmer Cooperatives
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Boards of directors are vital to firm performance and are an integral part of the decision‐making process of any business. Several studies have been conducted that observe corporate or nonprofit board characteristics, skills, and the board's connection to firm performance.

A comparative study of immersed-boundary interpolation methods for a flow around a stationary cylinder at low Reynolds number [PDF]
, 2013 The accuracy and computational efficiency of various interpolation methods for the implementation of non grid-confirming boundaries is assessed. The aim of the research is to select an interpolation method that is both efficient and sufficiently accurate

The Power of Unity: Collective Action and Smallholder Agricultural Performance in West Africa
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We analyze the impact of collective action through farmer‐based organizations (FBOs) on smallholders' farm performance and income inequality in Ghana, Benin, The Gambia, and Mali. We find that FBO membership increases cereal yield in Ghana and The Gambia, legume yield in Mali, ruminant numbers in Benin and The Gambia, and total farm income in ...

Prandtl number effect on near wall temperature profile in high-Reynolds number channel flows
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014 Prandtl number (Pr) effects on characteristics of the thermal boundary layer were investigated by means of Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) in high-Reynolds number turbulent channel flows. The molecular Pr conditions were changed from 0.71 to 25.0, and

CFD modeling and sensitivity‐guided design of silicon filament CVD reactors
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Filament‐based chemical vapor deposition (CVD) for silicon (Si) coatings is often treated as an adaptation of planar deposition. But this overlooks fundamental shifts in transport phenomena and reaction kinetics. In filament CVD, the filament acts as a substrate, heat source, and flow disruptor simultaneously. In this work, we ask: What really
