purpose: to assess parameters that had a capability of influencing the rate of big bubble formation during deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (dalk) in keratoconus. methods: a total of 290 consecutive eyes from 257 patients with keratoconus that underwent dalk using the big-bubble technique were enrolled. the influence of patient age and sex, family history of keratoconus, history of contact l...

today one of the major questions in the iranian economy is that do liquidity injected into the economy more effected productive activities or speculative activities .this study was conducted to compare the effects of liquidity growth on real sector and assets market bubbles in iranian economy during the period 1994(2)-2012(1). for this purpose, price index of four major assets in iranian econom...

The study of bubble dynamics, especially the interaction of bubbles, has drawn considerable attention due to its various applications in engineering and science. Meanwhile, the study of the oscillation effect of a bubble on the emitted pressure wave of another bubble in an acoustic field which has less been investigated. This issue is investigated in the present study using the coupling of Kell...

purpose: to investigate the results of deep lamellar keratoplasty (dlk) by big bubble method with using shifting bubble sign in patients suffering from keratoconus or corneal opacity methods: in this prospective interventional clinical trial, 20 eyes of 18 patients (10 males and 8 females) who underwent dlk by big bubble method using shifting bubble sign were investigated. mean age of cases wer...

In present paper acombination of three-dimensional isothermal and two-dimensional non-isothermal Lattice Boltzmann Method have been used to simulate the motion of bubble and effect of wetting properties of the surface on bubble separation. By combining these models, three-dimensional model has been used in two-dimension for decreasing the computational cost. Firstly, it has been ensured that th...

In this paper, a CFD model of syngas flow in slurry bubble column was developed. The model is based on an Eulerian-Eulerian approach and includes three phases: slurry of solid particles suspended in paraffin oil and syngas bubbles. Numerical calculations carried out for catalyst particles, bubble coalescence and breakup included bubble-fluid drag force and interfacial area effects. Also, the ef...

Bubble columns are gas- liquid contactors that are widely used in chemical and bio- chemical industries. High mixing that result in high heat and mass transfer rates are amongst their advantages. Heat transfer in a bubble column having a bundle of heaters investigated and the variation of heat transfer coefficient with variation in heaters pitch to diameter ratios in a bundle of heaters reporte...
