flow-rate measurement in rivers under different conditions is required for river management purposes including water resources planning, pollution prevention, and flood control. this study proposed a new discharge estimation method by using a mean velocity derived from a 2d velocity distribution formula based on tsallis entropy concept. this procedure is done based on several factors which refl...

stress waves contain useful information about the properties of porous materials; they can be recovered through different non-destructive testing methods such as crosswell, vertical seismic profile, borehole logging as well as sonic tests. in all these methods, it is crucial to assess the effects of frequency on wave attributes including velocity and intrinsic attenuation. the dependency of per...

background:growth is one of the most important indices in child health. the best and most effective way to investigate child health is measuring the physical growth indices such as weight, height and head circumference. among these measures, weight growth is the simplest and the most effective way to determine child growth status. weight trend at a given age is the result of cumulative growth e...

in this paper, nonlinear dynamic behaviours of carbon nanotube conveying fluidwith slip boundary conditions is studied using variation iteration method. the developed solutions are used to investigate the effects of various parameters on the nonlinear vibration of the nanotube. from the result, it is observed that increase in the slip parameter leads to decrease in the frequency of vibration an...

iran is located between two lithospheric plates (euroasia, arabian) and these two plates converge toward each other with a velocity of 25 mm/yr rate. shortening that produced from this convergence with makran subductin shows faulting and folding in zagros orogenic belt, alborz and kopedagh in north and sliding in sum strike slip faults with north-south trend in central iran. the nw-se trending ...

shear and compressional wave velocities along with other petrophysical logs, are considered as upmost important data for hydrocarbon reservoirs characterization. shear wave velocity (vs) in well logging is commonly measured by some sort of dipole logging tools, which are able to acquire shear waves as well as compressional waves such as sonic scanner, dsi (dipole shear sonic imager) by schlumbe...

background: the traditional cyclone has been developed for the removal of airborne silica particles from local exhaust ventilation (lev). the objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of velocity and particles load on efficiency of cyclone in the stone crushing units at azendarian area. methods: after the designing and installing the traditional cyclone, downstream and upstream sam...

Time-migration velocity analysis can be performed by velocity continuation, an incremental process that transforms migrated seismic sections according to changes in the migration velocity. Velocity continuation enhances residual normal moveout correction by properly taking into account both vertical and lateral movements of events on seismic images. Finite-difference and spectral algorithms pro...

Velocity continuation can be applied to migration velocity analysis. It enhances residual NMO correction by properly taking into account both vertical and lateral movements of reflectors caused by the change in migration velocity. I exemplify this fact with simple data tests.

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...
