We have studied sidebranching induced by fluctuations in dendritic growth. The amplitude of sidebranching induced by internal (equilibrium) concentration fluctuations in the case of solidification with solutal diffusion is computed. This amplitude turns out to be significantly smaller than values reported in previous experiments. The effects of other possible sources of fluctuations (of an exte...

Railways are an environmentally friendly means of transport that offer many advantages for sustainable development. However, noise and vibration remain a major reason for objections to new lines or network expansions. Railways will never be silent but, it is nevertheless important to reduce their noise and vibration as much as possible while not adding unnecessary cost or complication to their ...

Objective(s):In this study the effect of oral administration of honey on serum glucose, lipids, stress oxidative markers, and morphology of langerhans islets in noise induced hyperglycemic rats was investigated. Materials and Methods: Male Wistar rats were divided into control, hyperglycemic, honey treated control, and honey treated hyperglycemic groups. For induction of hyperglycemia, noise s...
