The influence of temperature, mean nanoparticle size and the nanoparticle concentration on the dynamic viscosities of nanofluids are investigated in an analytical method followed by introduction of modified equations for calculating the nanofluids’ viscosities. A new correlation is developed for effective viscosity based on the previous model where the Brownian movement of the nanoparticles is co...

Rehabiliating Bushehr historic fabric and paying to it as an important urban fabric through increasing capabilities and facilities is main concern. Bushehr historical fabric can be the consequence of several factors the most important of which is the Persian Gulf and its past history as a national one. This fabric, is organic, dense, compact, having its own characteristics. One of its main prio...

Coarse Particles and Dust Storm Mortality In a paper titled "Episodes of High Coarse Partide Concentrations Are Not Associated with Increased Mortality," Schwartz et al. (1) concluded that "coarse particles from windblown dust are not associated with mortality risk." The authors seem to have overlooked the medical literature on the health effects of the historic U.S. dust storms of the dust bow...

We show that strictly abnormal geodesics arise in graded nilpotent Lie groups. We construct such a group, for which some Carnot geodesics are strictly abnormal and, in fact, not normal in any subgroup. In the 2-step case we also prove that these geodesics are always smooth. Our main technique is based on the equations for the normal and abnormal curves, that we derive (for any Lie group) explic...

Fuzzy linear regression (FLR) model can be thought of as a fuzzy variation of classical linear regression model. It has been widely studied and applied in diverse fields. When noise exists in data, it is a very meaningful topic to reveal the dependency between the parameter h (i.e. the threshold value used to measure degree of fit) in FLR model and the input noise. In this paper, the FLR model ...

Veech groups uniformize Teichmüller geodesics in Riemann moduli space. We gave examples of infinitely generated Veech groups; see Duke Math. J. 123 (2004), 49–69. Here we show that the associated Teichmüller geodesics can even have both infinitely many cusps and infinitely many infinite ends.

In this note we exhibit a condition under which a sequence of elements a19 , an in a commutative noetherian local ring A form an Asequence, and derive a number of corollaries. Recall that if M is an A-module, then a19 , an is an M-sequence if 1) ai+1 is a nonzerodivisor on M/(a19 9a1)M for i = 0, 9n — 1,. and 2) M Φ (al9 . . . , α n ) M . If a19 , an is an A-sequence and / is the ideal generate...
