In this study, we proposed a novel scheme for the implementation of the no-slip boundary condition in thelattice Boltzmann method (LBM) . In detail , we have substituted the classical bounce-back idea by the direct immersed boundary specification . In this way we construct the equilibrium density functions in such a way that it feels the no-slip boundaries . Therefore , in fact a kind of equili...

The larval community of coral reef fishes in the Red Sea was studied in coastal and offshore sites to determine the effects of the exposure to waves and currents and the distance from the shore in structuring the larval fish community. Plankton sampling from inshore and offshore sites and the exposed and sheltered sides of the reefs resulted in the collection of 2048 larvae representing 49 diff...

A key to understanding why School is what it is lies in recognizing a systematic tendency to deform ideas in specific ways in order to make them fit into a pedagogical framework. One of these deformations is described here as " disempowering ideas. " The insight leads to a new direction for innovation in education: re-empowering the disempowered ideas. Doing so is not easy: it needs a new epist...

Despite the pervasive use of electronic media for idea generation and idea sharing, the extent and quality of idea integration and use is relatively understudied. Idea integration and use depends on information saliency but little is known about how idea integration may be facilitated by user interface features that influence information saliency. This paper examines the effect of idea visibili...

Many business publications state that no idea is a bad idea, that even if the idea is, at first glance, not helpful, there are usually some aspects of this idea which are helpful Usually, this statement is based on the experience of the author, and it is given without any theoretical explanation. In this paper, we provide a theoretical explanation for this statement. 1 No Idea Is a Bad Idea Man...

Idea Communities allow their users to contribute to a company’s innovation activities by sharing their ideas with the Community. These ideas are then improved according to the Mass-Collaboration principle. Due to the high diversity among the participants, a shared understanding and a common goal is hard to develop in a mass collaboration environment. According to Bounded Ideation Theo...
