We present a compilation of predictions for the amplitudes of D 0 ?D 0 mixing. We are not aware of any exhaustive compilation of predictions for the amplitudes for D 0 !D 0. We have therefore found it helpful to compile, here, those predictions that we have found in a rudimentary search of the literature. We keep an annotated table of all of the references that we have found, hyperlinked where ...

A database of functional sites for proteins with known structures, SITE, is constructed and used in conjunction with a simple pattern matching program SiteMatch to evaluate possible function conservation in a recently constructed database of fold predictions for Escherichia coli proteins (Rychlewski L et al., 1999, Protein Sci 8:614-624). In this and other prediction databases, fold predictions...

Human perception and memory are often explained as optimal statistical inferences, informed by accurate prior probabilities. In contrast, cognitive judgments are usually viewed as following error-prone heuristics, insensitive to priors. We examined the optimality of human cognition in a more realistic context than typical laboratory studies, asking people to make predictions about the duration ...

the design and optimization of hydrocyclones using cfd techniques are gaining popularity and the key to a successful simulation lies with the accurate description of the high turbulent swirling behavior of the flow. this paper presents a detailed comparison between the omega rsm and the rng k–e turbulence model, which are both derived specially for modeling swirling or rotational flow, in the s...

the present paper deals with the prediction of three-dimensional fluid flow and heat transfer in rib-roughened ducts of square cross-section. such flows are of direct relevance to the internal cooling system of modern gas turbine blades. the main objective is to assess how a recently developed variant of a cubic non-linear model (proposed by craft et al. (1999)), that has been shown to produce ...
