We present a new parameterisation for shear-driven, stratified, turbulent mixing which is pertinent to climate models, in particular the shear-driven mixing in overflows and the Equatorial Undercurrent. Critically for climate applications this parameterisation is simple enough to be implemented implicitly, which allows the parameterisation to be used with timesteps that are long compared to bot...

The paper presents a method for finding out the weakest bus based on reactive power sensitivity index for a multibus real system. The Voltage Stability Margin (VSM) and change in voltage has also been calculated for the verification for with and without compensation. These techniques are tested on the 400 KV WBSEB system proposed in the 9th plan and results are given to prove the effectiveness ...

This study is focused on the development of a systematic computational approach which implements Genetic Algorithm (GA) to find the optimal rigorous kinetic models.A general Kinetic model for hydrogenolysis of dibenzothiophene (DBT) based on Langmuir-Hinshelwood type has been obtained from open literature. This model consists of eight continuous parameters(e.g., Arrhenus  and Van't...

In this work, removal of C. I. Acid Red 14 was investigated by Pumice stone as a low cost adsorbent. Various parameters such as initial dye solution, contact time and pH were studied. Removal of dye were increased by increasing of contact time and initial dye solution and deceased by increasing of pH. Three isotherm models were studied. Linear and non-linear regression analyses were used fo...

The paper shows the results of the convective heat transfer prediction in turbulent axisymmetric jets impinging onto a flat plate using the newest version (2006) of the k-ω turbulence model of Wilcox [1]. Improvements to the heat transfer predictions are obtained in the strongly strained flow regions with the impingement invariant proposed by Manceau [2] together with the F1 function proposed b...

One of the most fundamental properties of the Radon (projection) transform is that shifting of the image results in shifted projections. This useful property relates translational motion in the image to simple displacement in the projections. It is far from clear, however, how more general types of motion in the image domain will be manifested in the projections. In this paper, we present a mod...

An extension of the synchronous parallel kinetic Monte Carlo (pkMC) algorithm developed by Martinez et al [J. Comp. Phys. 227 (2008) 3804] to discrete lattices is presented. The method solves the master equation synchronously by recourse to null events that keep all processors time clocks current in a global sense. Boundary conflicts are rigorously solved by adopting a chessboard decomposition ...
