The physical and mathematical model of the planetary heat balance is developed to establish the influence of the atmospheric transmission for the solar radiation in the shortwave spectrum range and for the surface IR radiation in the longwave spectrum range on the Earth’s climate. It is shown the possibility of the decreasing of the atmospheric and surface temperatures with the decreasing of th...

The surfaces of strained mild steel sheet specimens were examined with scanning laser confocal microscopy. Rigorous assessments were employed to establish the form of the roughness data. The small deviations from the ideal conditions observed in these assessments indicated that the stochastic process responsible for surface roughening does not conform to stationary, Gaussian, Markov statistics....

The intent of this analysis is to explore the influence of thermal radiation paired with variable thermal conductivity on MHD micropolar fluid flow over an upper surface. The novelty of the present model is to consider the fluid flow along an upper horizontal surface of a paraboloid of revolution (uhspr) with the porous medium.  This physical phenomenon is described by a set of coupled...

The relatlon between the bonding eMcacy ef the dentin adhesive and the physical change of the dentin after treatment with various dentin cleansers was investigated, The dentin surface was cleaned with one of the seven experimental dentin cleansers, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40% of the phosphoric acid, neutralized O,5M EDTA solution (pH7.4) and 9.1% pyruvic acid containing 9,1% glycin, prior to the comb...

Recent advances in atomic force microscopy (AFM) are revolutionizing our views of microbial surfaces. While AFM imaging is very useful for visualizing the surface of hydrated cells and membranes on the nanoscale, force spectroscopy enables researchers to locally probe biomolecular forces and physical properties. These unique capabilities allow us to address a number of questions that were inacc...

Gigahertz acoustic waves propagating on the surface of a metal halfspace are detected using different all-optical detection schemes, namely, deflectometry and beam distortion detection techniques. Both techniques are implemented by slightly modifying a conventional reflectometric setup. They are then based on the measurement of the reflectivity change but unlike reflectometric measurements, the...

The relation between the bonding efficacy of the dentin adhesive and the physical change of the dentin after treatment with various dentin cleansers was investigated. The dentin surface was cleaned with one of the seven experimental dentin cleansers, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40% of the phosphoric acid, neutralized 0.5 M EDTA solution (pH 7.4) and 9.1% pyruvic acid containing 9.1% glycine, prior to the...

In this work we introduce a new user interface design that maps sensed emotions to an abstract device. This abstract display allows the exploring of emotional expressions avoiding anthropomorphisms caused by human or animal like designs. The presented interface senses emotions by facial video analysis. The device is implemented as an actuated surface that expresses emotions by changing its phys...
