We review the current state of Cepheid modeling and discuss its dominant deficiency, namely the use of time dependent mixing length. Notwithstanding, Cepheid modeling has achieved some excellent successes, and we mention some of the most recent ones. Discrepancies between observations and modeling appear not so much in the gross properties of single mode Cepheids, but rather when more subtle no...

a new three-dimensional unit cell model has been developed for modeling three constituent phases including inclusion, interphase and matrix. the total elastic modulus of nano-composite is evaluated.  numerical results are in good agreement with the previous proposed theoretical modeling. higher matrix and inclusion elastic modulus both can dramatically influence the total elastic modulus.

pH-Sensitive micelles are usually made from double-hydrophilic block copolymers which can dissolve molecularly in water in a certain pH range and aggregate spontaneously upon an appropriate change in the pH value. Significant advances in this field have been achieved in recent years.[1] Polymeric hollow spheres have great potential for the encapsulation of large quantities of guest molecules. D...

Cellular fibronectin is deposited on tissue culture polystyrene during the adhesion and spreading of cultured human endothelial cells (HEC). Following the seeding of HEC upon this polymer, larger amounts of fibronectin are deposited as both cell density and incubation time increase. Our results indicate that the ability to deposit cellular fibronectin onto a polymeric surface is a condition for...

The hydrodynamic/water quality model is an important tool in water environment management. It used to gain a deeper understanding of physical, chemical, and biological processes develop models capable represent surface waters with realism. A hydrodynamic can give essential data sediment, noxious, eutrophication modelling. Models enable decision-makers select alternatives for management that are...

this paper presents developing an analytical model for flux switching motors. the motor is a class of variable reluctance motors that has two windings on stator; a field winding and an armature winding. due to saliency of both stator and rotor poles, accurate modeling is difficult which arises from the nonlinear behavior of the machine. this paper presents a simple model which is able to predic...

As cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) regulate cell cycle progression and RNA transcription, CDKs are attractive targets for creating cancer cell treatments. In this study we investigated the effects of the small molecular agent NU6140 (inhibits CDK2 and cyclin A interaction) on human embryonic stem (hES) cells and embryonal carcinoma-derived (hEC) cells via the expression of transcription factors...

This study aims to validate the HEC-HMS model in Karnali river basin of Nepal, while also physically verifying parameters for area. The is a semi-distributed based that requires site-specific information about weather, as well spatial on soil and land use. Using Arc-GIS, HEC-HMS, HEC DSS, hydrological rainfall runoff was developed River at Asaraghat (DHM station 240) period 1998-2005. Calibrati...

Analytical approximations to Einstein integrals are proposed. The approximations represented by two fast-converging series are valid for all values of their arguments. Accordingly, the algorithm can be easily incorporated into professional software like HEC-RAS or HEC-6 with minimum computational effort.
