Piano key (PK) weirs are used in a variety of flow control structure applications, including spillway crests and open channel diversion structures. However, to the best authors’ knowledge, structure-specific design guidance for scour mitigation is still needed. To fill this gap systematic experimental campaign was conducted by testing different configurations horizontal aprons with cutoff wall....

The fulfillment of irrigation water needs must take into consideration the available resources. This is undertaken to avert conflicts that may arise among users. allocation can be accomplished through an analysis balance, juxtaposing discharge with required discharge. outcomes balance serve as a reference for allocation. Within Kedunglarangan Watershed (DAS), there exist six weirs, current mana...

A pair of Mond–Weir type nondifferentiable multiobjective second order symmetric dual programs is formulated and symmetric duality theorems are established under the assumptions of second order F-pseudoconvexity/ F-pseudoconcavity. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

In this paper, Mond-Weir type duality results for a uncertain multiobjective robust optimization problem are given under generalized invexity assumptions. Also, weak vector saddle-point theorems are obtained under convexity assumptions.

Relative to a general class of nondifferentiable mathematical programming problems we consider a converse duality result with respect to a higher order Mond-Weir dual. AMS Mathematics Subject Classification: 90C29, 90C30, 90C32.

A Mond–Weir type dual for a class of nondifferentiable minimax fractional programming problem is considered. Appropriate duality results are proved involving (F,a,q,d)-pseudoconvex functions. 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

OBSERVE the title of the building we are assembled to dedicate-the Mitchell Memorial Building of the Philadelphia Orthopaedic Hospital and Infirmary for Nervous Diseases. It is not the S. Weir Mitchell or the Weir Mitchell Memorial, but simply the "Mitchell Memorial" Building.2 As there are many Franklins but only one Franklin, so there are many Mitchells but only one Mitchell. I first saw Weir...

The present paper attempts to investigate the prediction of air entrainment rate and aeration efficiency of a free overfall jets issuing from a triangular sharp crested weir by using regression based modelling. The empirical equations, Support vector machine (polynomial and radial basis function) models and the linear regression techniques were applied on the triangular sharp crested weirs rela...

1. INTRODUCTION In a previous study, Weir & Schluter [1] (hereafter WS2007) argue that smaller average genetic distances between species in cooler latitudes represent faster rates of speciation relative to tropical species. Such an interpretation assumes clades evolve at constant rates across latitudes so that a hypothetical molecular clock ticks at the same rate, regardless of climate. By cont...
