Stably stratified turbulence presents particular challenges both from an experimental and a modeling perspective. The damping of the turbulence due to flow stratification and the presence of features such as gravity waves, and Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities complicate the the application of turbulence similarity theories and the formulation of turbulence models. From an LES perspective, the mai...

Most of the existing methods for measuring melodic similarity use one-dimensional textual representations of music notation, so that melodic similarity can be measured by calculating editing distances. We view notes as weighted points in a two-dimensional space, with the coordinates of the points reflecting the pitch and onset time of notes and the weights of points depending on the correspondi...

The International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM) approved, in its Recommendation 1 of 2005, preparative steps towards new definitions of the kilogram, the ampere, the kelvin, and the mole in terms of fundamental constants. Within the Consultative Committee for Thermometry (CCT), a task group (TG-SI) H. Ugur is the President, Consultative Committee for Thermometry (CCT). J. Fischer (B...
