Recent experiments by Suzuki et al. (Chem. Phys. Lett. 2007, 445, 37−41) and Gurganus et al. (J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2011, 2, 1449−1454) on liquid−solid nucleation arrived at conflicting results regarding a preferred status of the triple line between water, air, and an ice-catalyzing substrate. Temperature nonuniformity within drops and substratedependent contact angles have been suggested as cul...

Triple Bottom Line accounting is widely advanced as a way in which firms can realise broader societal objectives in addition to increasing shareholder value. In our analysis of the Australian economy, we integrate financial input-output tables that describe the inter-dependencies between economic sectors, with national social and environmental accounts to construct numerate 'triple bottom line'...

BACKGROUND Many Helicobacter pylori eradication regimens have been described. There are little data reporting their efficacy or integration in routine clinical practice. The overall results of eradication therapy in a cohort of patients are described and an algorithm for management outlined. METHODS 469 patients receiving eradication therapy in routine clinical practice were evaluated. The su...

The stability of a dynamic meniscus depends upon its macroscopic curvature. In particular, the critical velocity for wetting transition is affected by curvature which, as such, emerges thickness selection mechanism liquid film deposition. These ideas have been demonstrated experimentally flowing water in tubes at high velocities and rationalized numerical modeling.

Abstract A more circular economy aims to reduce global material consumption, make the most out of our resources, and create a sustainable economic system. In this paper, we analyze how different actions in Norway affect indicators three pillars development: prosperity (measured by value added), social equity employment opportunities), environmental protection greenhouse gas emissions). Based on...

We present numerical solutions of the steady and unsteady transonic small disturbance equations that describe the Mach reflection of weak shock waves. The solutions contain a complex structure consisting of a sequence of triple points and tiny supersonic patches directly behind the leading triple point, formed by the reflection of weak shocks and expansion waves between the sonic line and the M...
