this study proposed a new discharge estimation method using a mean velocity formula derived from chiu’s 2d velocity formula of probabilistic entropy concept and the river bed shear stress of channel. in particular, we could calculate the mean velocity, which is hardly measurable in flooding natural rivers, in consideration of several factors reflecting basic hydraulic characteristics such as ri...

In this paper we compare two different models that can be used to describe velocity profiles of a handwritten stroke. The theoretical analysis and performance comparison on the fitting data figures and the mean square error clearly reflects the superiority of the delta lognormal model over the minimum jerk model to describe the velocity profile characterizing rapid movements.

Differential semblance velocity analysis flattens image gathers automatically by minimizing the mean square difference of neighboring traces in an image volume. Implementations based on normal moveout correction as “imaging” method are relatively fast, can accomodate arbitrary acquisition geometry, and can be organized to output 1D, 2D, or 3D interval velocity models. Within the limits of its i...

An axisymmetric jet issued from a sharp edged circular convergent nozzle has been studied experimentally in the near field at Reynolds number 5.3x104  to search the saddle shape behavior of mean velocity and the role of mean static pressure in the jet flow. Due to the vena contracta effect the centerline mean velocity of the jet increases about 4.2% of its exit value and corresponding decrease ...
