the effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends
flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...
Pitfalls in the Interpretation of Delta Wing Flow Visualisation
This paper illustrates some pitfalls in the interpretation of flow visualisation images of delta wing leading-edge vortices. Numerical simulations of tracer particle trajectories in around straight and helical vortices are presented, representing unburst and burst delta wing vortices respectively. For straight vortices, the appearance of the ‘smoke-ring’ effect in wind tunnel testing is analyse...
متن کاملInspiratory flow-volume curve evaluation for detecting upper airway disease.
BACKGROUND The 2005 American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society guidelines on spirometry emphasize examination of the inspiratory curve of the flow-volume loop for evidence of intrathoracic or extrathoracic upper airway obstruction. We sought to determine how frequently evaluations are performed for abnormal inspiratory curves. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all examinations p...
متن کاملSpirometry versus flow volume inspiratory and expiratory loop.
P SPIROMETRY VERSUS FLOW VOLUME INSPIRATORY AND EXPIRATORY LOOP To the Editor: I would like to comment on the excellent CME article, “Vocal Cord Dysfunction: An Update” by Leslie M. Gimenez, MD, and Heidi Zafra, MD (Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2011;106:267–275). I compliment the authors on the very thorough review and analysis of the literature. I am concerned by the nomenclature they used in d...
متن کاملInhabited or Uninhabited? Pitfalls in the Interpretation of Possible Chemical Signatures of Extraterrestrial Life
The "Rare Earth" hypothesis-put forward by Ward and Brownlee in their 2000 book of the same title-states that prokaryote-type organisms may be common in the universe but animals and higher plants are exceedingly rare. If this idea is correct, the search for extraterrestrial life is essentially the search for microorganisms. Various indicators may be used to detect extant or extinct microbial li...
