In this paper we present some test results of our newly developed Multi-Phase Chemo-Dynamical Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (MP-CD-SPH) code for galaxy evolution. At first, we present a test of the “pure” hydro SPH part of the code. Then we describe and test the multi-phase description of the gaseous components of the interstellar matter. In this second part we also compare our condensation a...

are maintained. If the etching depth is equal to an integral number of half-wavelengths, uniformly high reflectivity across the active L. Fan, M.C. Wu, H.C. Lee and P. Grodzinski . mesa is achieved. The top electrodes which simultaneously pump the phase-shifted and non-phase-shifted region are then deposited by evaporation and lift-off processes. Fig. 2 shows the scanning electron micrograph (S...

The exchange kinetics of liquid water, which are of fundamental interest and have potential applications, remain unclear. A fantastic and extraordinary phenomenon was observed during the evaporation of a water droplet doped with manganese chloride. As observed from the evolution of this type of droplet, a thin film was formed on the surface with an exothermic phase transition, resulting in self...

Silica/diblock films with various mesostructures of large characteristic length scales were synthesized through evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA). The structure-directing agents used were amphiphilic polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PS-b-PEO) diblock copolymers of high molecular weights. The synthesis process began with a dilute homogeneous solution of a silica precursor and the d...

This paper studies the liquid to vapor phase transition in a cone shaped nozzle. Using the geometric method presented in [32, 34], we further develop results on subsonic and supersonic evaporation waves in [14] to transonic waves. It is known that transonic waves do not exist if restricted solely to the slow system on the slow manifolds [14]. Thus we consider the existence of transonic waves th...

reverse redistribution pattern is defined as decreased activity in the myocardium in the rest phase of the myocardial perfusion scan in comparison with the stress images. there are many studies concerning the etiology and clinical significant of this phenomenon in nuclear medicine literature. the dominant idea about etiology of reverse redistribution is early wash out of the radiotracer from th...

An existing numerical model of cumulus growth, treating condensation but not precipitation, is modified by the incorporation of a parameterized treatment of liquid phase microphysics. This modification improves the realism of the results in several important respects; among them are maximum height of cloud growth, maximum liquid content, amount and distribution of temperature departure, cloud s...
