Wind measurements using classical profiling lidars suffer from systematic measurement errors in complex terrain. Moreover, their ability to measure turbulence quantities is unsatisfactory for wind-energy applications. This paper presents results from a measurement campaign during which multiple WindScanners were focused on one point next to a reference mast in complex terrain. This multi-lidar ...

Wake characteristics are of great importance for wind park performance and turbine loads. While wind tunnel experiments provided a solid base for the basic understanding of the structure and dynamics of wind turbine wakes, the consequent step forward to characterize wakes is full-scale measurements in real atmospheric boundary layer conditions under different stability regimes. Scanning Doppler...

A new nonlinear sequential Monte Carlo technique is used to estimate posterior probability distributions for the location of a calling animal, the locations of acoustic receivers, sound speeds, winds, and the differences in sonic travel time between pairs of receivers from measurements of those differences, while adopting realistic prior distributions of the variables. Other algorithms in the l...

Sonic hedgehog promotes proliferation of developing cerebellar granule cells. As sonic hedgehog is expressed in the cerebellum throughout life it is not clear why proliferation occurs only in the early postnatal period and only in the external granule cell layer. We asked whether heparan sulfate proteoglycans might regulate sonic hedgehog-induced proliferation and thereby contribute to the spec...

Sonification and audification create auditory displays of datasets. Audification translates data points into digital audio samples and the auditory display’s duration is determined by the playback rate. Like audification, auditory graphs maintain the temporal relationships of data while using parameter mappings (typically data-tofrequency) to represent the ordinate values. Such direct approache...

This study investigates the effect of sonic stimulation on Bacillus endospore germination. Germinating endospores in a microtiter plate were exposed to audible sound wave generated by an array of piezoelectric transducers. In situ germination kinetics was measured by terbium-dipicolinate fluorescence assay, optical density measurement and phase contrast microscopy. Fluorescence results revealed...

A comparison of one and two dimensional models of transonic accretion discs around collapsed objects ABSTRACT: We construct models of the inner part of a transonic adiabatic accretion disc assuming constant specific angular momentum taking the vertical structure fully into account. For comparison purposes, we construct the corresponding one dimensional viscous disc models derived under vertical...

Microencapsulation is a process in which solid, liquid or gas components are covered with a septum.The present study has focused on the effect of stirring to produce ferric saccharide capsules withalginate coating applying the coacervation method so that we can obtain the best capsules forfortification of hydrated and dehydrated food products. At first, three methods, including stirrer,ultra-so...

This paper develops the idea of ‘instrumentality’ to explore how use diverse tools or instruments involved in new music have potential (re)frame our engagement with world. It will be argued that choice instrumental and they are used performance can not only enrich creative processes outcomes for artist but also alter audience’s relationship world by encouraging a conceptual one more its aspects...
