A theoretical investigation of factors affecting the gas phase transport of evaporating organic liquids in the unsaturated zone is presented. Estimates of density-dfiven advective gas flow using a simple analytic expression indicate that significant advective gas flow will result from the evaporation of volatile liquids in soils having a high permeability. Numerical simulations using a two-dime...

An analytical solution is developed for three-dimensional flow towards a partially penetrating largediameter well in an unconfined aquifer bounded below by a leaky aquitard of finite or semi-infinite extent. The analytical solution is derived using Laplace and Hankel transforms, then inverted numerically. Existing solutions for flow in leaky unconfined aquifers neglect the unsaturated zone foll...

We describe a 63-year-old man with severe bilateral internal carotid artery disease who presented with repeated, brief attacks of left limb shaking precipitated by his standing up. Cerebral blood flow measured by xenon-133 inhalation showed reduced resting flows and a focal perfusion deficit in the right dorsofrontal and upper rolandic regions. Blood flow velocity and pulsatility index of the r...

Objective: To investigate the influence of infarct zone viability on remodelling after late recanalisation of an occluded infarct related artery. Methods: A subgroup of 26 volunteers from TOAT (the open artery trial) underwent dobutamine stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance at baseline to assess the amount of viable myocardium present with follow up to assess remodelling at one year. TOAT s...

Decommissioning of a retired Training, Research, Isotope production, General Atomics (TRIGA) research reactor facility has been performed for the reuse of the decommissioned site. The residents adjacent to the decommissioned site should be safe from radiation exposure. Radionuclides around the decommissioned site were first distributed on the site surface, and then later moved from the surface ...

With the urbanization process of the hot summer and cold winter (HSCW) zone in China, the energy consumption of space and water heating in urban residential buildings of the HSCW zone has increased rapidly. This study presents the energy efficiency and sustainability evaluation of various ways of space and water heating taking 10 typical cities in the HSCW zone as research cases. Two indicators...

Information technology has been widely used in the enterprise in airport economic zone and the daily management of government. The use of information technology construction of airport economic zone electronic port information platform helps to promote financial electronic, trade electronic, customs clearance electronic and tax electronic development and integration. This paper firstly analyzes...

We compare away-side hadron correlations with respect to tagged heavy quark jets computed within a weakly coupled pQCD and a strongly coupled AdS/CFT model. While both models feature similar far zone Mach and diffusion wakes, the far zone stress features are shown to be too weak to survive thermal broadening at hadron freeze-out. Observable away-side conical correlations are dominated by the je...
