In this paper we have studied the effect of free convection on the heat transfer and flow through variable porous medium which is bounded by two vertical parallel porous plates. In this study it is assume that free stream velocity oscillates with time about a constant mean. Periodic temperature is considered in the moving plate. Effect of different parameters on mean flow velocity, Transient ve...

Vertical transects of Doppler vertical velocity data, obtained from an airborne profiling millimeter-wave cloud radar, are composited for a large number of cumulus clouds (Cu) at various stages of their life cycle, to examine typical circulations patterns. The Cu clouds range in depth between ;500 and 6000 m and are generally nonprecipitating. They were sampled on board the University of Wyomin...

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of selected factors on horizontal-to-vertical velocity conversion in the triple jump. An understanding of this conversion is important not only for studies on the techniques of the triple jump, but also for other jumping events. Ten elite jumpers were studied. Three-dimensional kinematic data were collected for at least four complete trials in ...

A physical model of gabion overflow dams was studied to determine the velocity profile and Reynolds shear stress. Physical tests were done under two different conditions of dam crest, overflow dams with impermeable and with permeable crests. Instantaneous velocity components over dam crest were measured by an ADV (Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter) instrument. This instrument is capable of measuring...

We investigated relationships between saccadic and vergence components of gaze shifts as 10 human subjects switched visual fixation between targets aligned in the midsagittal plane that lay in different vertical directions and at different distances. When fixation was shifted between a higher distant target and a lower near target, peak convergence velocity followed peak vertical saccadic veloc...

[1] The simultaneous measurements of vertical velocity and cloud droplet size distributions in cumuli collected during the RACORO field campaign over the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program’s Southern Great Plains site near Lamont, Oklahoma, US, are analyzed to determine the effects of vertical velocity on droplet number concentration, relative dispersion (the ratio of standard deviation ...

in this research, the effect of friction between the liquid metal and the sand mould wall and the effect of passage of liquid through a vertical bend and through a ceramic filter on the fluid flow and the melt velocity has been studied by measuring the velocity of the melt and direct observation of the liquid flow through the different parts of a naturally-pressurized running system. the fricti...
