cash flow forecasting is an indispensable tool for construction companies, and is essential for the survivalof any contractor at all stages of the work. the time available for a detailed pre-tender cash flow forecast is oftenlimited. therefore, contractors require simpler and quicker techniques which would enable them to forecast cash flowwith reasonable accuracy. forecasting s-curves in constr...

the performance of water flooding can be investigated by using either detail numerical modeling or simulation, or simply through the analytical buckley-leverett (bl) model. the buckley-leverett analytical technique can be applied to one-dimensional homogeneous systems. in this paper, the impact of heterogeneity on water flooding performance and fractional flow curve is investigated. first, a ba...

introduction hydrograph of springs represents clearly all physical processes that control ground water flows inside aquifer (kuto et al., 2012: 41). study of the curve can reveal information about structure and function of aquifer, particularly hydrodynamic parameters including permeability and storage (troch et al., 1993: 228). analysis of recession curve has the advantage to calculate paramet...

METHODS of shortening a curve in a manifold have been used to establish the existence of closed geodesics, and in particular of simple closed geodesics on 2-spheres. For this purpose, a curve evolution process should (a) not increase the number of self-intersections of a curve, (b) exist for all time or until a curve collapses to a point, (c) shorten curves sufficiently fast so that curves whic...

Data on pulmonary function, with particular reference to flow-volumes, were obtained in 760 normal healthy Indians in Bombay, who had never smoked and who had no symptom or history of cardiorespiratory disease. Prediction equations were derived for spirometric parameters and for maximal expiratory flows. The maximal expiratory flow-volume curves showed considerable intersubject variability. Bot...
