Direct numerical simulations are used to study mixing and dispersion in decaying stably stratified turbulence from a Lagrangian perspective. The change in density of fluid particles owing to small-scale mixing is extracted from the simulations to provide insight into the mixing process. These changes are driven by temporally and spatially intermittent events that are strongly suppressed as the ...

abstract to resist lateral loads in concrete buildings, usually systems such as flexural frame, shear wall or their combinations are used. using x form of cable bracing in order to strengthen concrete buildings is a new method. this system is more economical compared with the other systems due to cables low weight, high tensile resistance, easy performance and less maintenance problems. in this...
