Decay of the Kinetic and the Thermal Energy of Compressible Micropolar Fluids. We consider a heat conducting compressible micropolar fluid at rest and filling a closed stationary rigid container. We show that tim energy of arbitrary disturbances of the fluid eventually decays. Abnahme der kinetischcn und der thermischen Energie kompressibler mikropolarcr Fliissigkeiten. Betrachtet wird eine ruh...

In this paper we show how a fundamental result from information theory can be used to calculate the aggregate channel capacity in the uplink of an access point or a base station. The fundamental limits for this cell capacity provide an upper bound for any practically implementable multiple-access scheme. The capacity loss due to various implementation constraints is evaluated and a method for a...

we introduce a new concept of general $g$-$eta$-monotone operator generalizing the general $(h,eta)$-monotone operator cite{arvar2, arvar1}, general $h-$ monotone operator cite{xiahuang} in banach spaces, and also generalizing $g$-$eta$-monotone operator cite{zhang}, $(a, eta)$-monotone operator cite{verma2}, $a$-monotone operator cite{verma0}, $(h, eta)$-monotone operator cite{fanghuang}, $h$-...

abstract drought is one the most complicated and unknown natural disasters and rainfed agriculture is often the first sector to be affected by drought. in this research, we consider the drought monitoring from both meteorological and agricultural points of view. we have selected standardized precipitation index (spi) among the meteorological indices, with a one month time scale for the synoptic...

The availability of refuelling locations for alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) is an important factor that drivers consider before adopting an AFV; thus, the layout of initial filling stations for AFVs will influence the adoption of AFVs. This paper presents a training system for optimising the layout of initial filling stations for AFVs by linking an agent-based model of the adoption of AFVs wi...

Purpose A clinical augmented reality guidance system was developed for MR imaging guided musculoskeletal and spine interventions (Magnetic Resonance Image Overlay System, MR-IOS) [1]. The MR-IOS was used in conjunction with a laboratory system “Perk Station Platform, PSP”; a training platform for percutaneous needle based interventions [2]. The purpose of this study was to assess the MR environ...

A station closure is an abnormal operational situation in which the entrances or exits of a rail transit station have to be closed for some time due to an unexpected incident. A novel approach is developed to estimate the impacts of the alternative station closure scenarios on both passenger behavioral choices at the individual level and passenger demand at the disaggregate level in a rail tran...
