This study was undertaken to examine the influence of soluble non-starch polysaccharides on growth performance, mucin secretion, and endogenous amino acid flows in weaner pigs. Different levels (0, 4 and 7.5%) of purified corn arabinoxylan (AX) or barley β-glucan extract (BG) were substituted for cellulose in a purified diet based on starch, sucrose and enzymatically hydrolyzed casein. All diet...

this article deals with the study of the two-dimensional mixed convection magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) boundary layer of stagnation-point flow over a stretching vertical plate in porous medium filled with a nanofluid. the model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of brownian motion and thermophoresis in the presence of thermal radiation. the skin-friction coefficient, nusselt number an...

because of its kinetic nature and computational advantages, the lattice boltzmann method (lbm) has been well accepted as a useful tool to simulate micro-scale flows. the slip boundary model plays a crucial role in the accuracy of solutions for micro-channel flow simulations. the most used slip boundary condition is the maxwell slip model. the results of maxwell slip model are affected by the ac...

label switching technology is a flexible and high performance method for forwarding layer three packets that are mapped to layer two flows. each label switch router, lsr, needs a specific label for every flow, where the number of labels depends on the mapping and granularity of flows. data and control driven methods are the most significant and popular methods in label mapping policy. the above...

in recent years, artificial neural networks (anns) have been widely used for flood esti-mation. in this study, an ann model based on the geomorphologic characteristics of a watershed such as the number of possible paths and their probabilities is developed (gann model). nodes in the input layer are allocated to the surface flows, subsurface flows, excess-rainfall and infiltrated rain. the numbe...

Network traffic forecasting is essential for efficient network management and planning. Accurate long-term models are also proactive control of upcoming congestion events. Due to the complex spatial-temporal dependencies between flows, traditional time series often unable fully extract characteristics flows. To address this issue, we propose a novel dual-channel based graph convolutional (DC-ST...

Recurring Slope Lineae (RSL) are dark streaks that seasonally propagate and fade on Martian slopes. The morphology dynamics of RSL suggest they might be brine flows; however, more recent hypotheses propose dry, granular flows. To determine if consistent with flows, we investigated Mars analog wet in Wright Valley Antarctica using new chemical analyses soils waters, time-lapse photography, satel...

A vector Sd-flow is a flow whose flow values are vectors in Sd, where Sd is the set of all unit vectors in Rd+1. Jain [Open Problem Garden, http://www.openproblemgarden.org/op/unit vector flows (2007)] and Thomassen [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B., 108 (2014), pp. 81–91] proved that a graph has a vector S1-flow if it has a nowhere-zero integer 3-flow. Thomassen [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B., 108 (2014)...

It is now clear that AGN heat cooling flows, largely by driving winds. The winds may contain a relativistic component that generates powerful synchrotron radiation, but it is not clear that all winds do so. The spatial and temporal stability of the AGN/cooling flow interaction are discussed. Collimation of the winds probably provides spatial stability. Temporal stability may be possible only fo...
