The yields of chemical reactions are highly dependent on the mixing pattern between reactants. Herein, we report modification a meso-micromixing interaction reaction model which is applied in batch reactors by leveraging flow characteristics continuous reactors. Both experimental and model-predicted were compared using classical Villermaux–Dushman method self-designed split recombination reacto...

This paper provides an appropriate method for predicting strong winds acting on tall buildings erected in close proximity to one another at the center of a city. We first check the accuracy of strong winds estimated using the meso-meteorological model (MM5) without an urban-canopy model above and inside an urban canopy, in comparison with the observational data taken at the rooftop of a high-ri...

Environmental sounds present a difficult problem for sound modeling because spectral and temporal cues are tightly correlated. These sounds form classes that cannot be handled by traditional synthesis methods. Micro-level representations provide ways to control spectral and spatial cues in sound synthesis and meso-level representations determine the temporal structure of sound events. By constr...

The meso-salicylaldehyde substituted BODIPY was synthesized over a sequence of steps and characterized by X-ray crystallography, mass, NMR, absorption, fluorescence and electrochemical techniques. The crystal structure showed the presence of strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding between hydroxyl and formyl groups, which induces rigidity in the BODIPY core and makes the BODIPY relatively more f...

Entrepreneurial action is embedded within a variety of complex social structures, not all of which can be as easily defined or measured as macro-institutional or micro-individual characteristics, but collectively hold rich insights into the actual causal mechanisms influencing action. To address this problem, we call upon researchers to broaden their levels of analysis and direct their focus to...

Prediction of mechanical properties of carbon nanotube-based composite is one of the important issues which should be addressed reasonably. A proper modeling approach is a multi-scale technique starting from nano scale and lasting to macro scale passing in-between scales of micro and meso. The main goal of this research is to develop a multi-scale modeling approach to extract mechanical propert...

We propose a three-scale hierarchical representation of scenes and objects and show how this representation is suitable for both computer vision capture of models from images and efficient photo-realistic graphics rendering. The model consists of: (1) a conventional triangulated geometry on the macro-scale; (2) a displacement map, introducing pixel-wise depth with respect to each planar model f...

Serratia marcescens strain ATCC 14041 was found to be an efficient meso-2,3-butanediol (meso-2,3-BD) producer from glucose and sucrose. Here we present a 5.0-Mb assembly of its genome. We have annotated 4 coding sequences (CDSs) for meso-2,3-BD fermentation and 2 complete operons including 6 CDSs for sucrose utilization.

Outdoor sound prediction is both a societal concern and a scientific issue. This paper deals with numerical simulations of micrometeorological (temperature and wind) fields for environmental acoustics. These simulations are carried out using the reference meso-scale meteorological model at the Meteo-France weather agency (Meso-NH). Meso-NH predictions at very fine scales (up to 3 m), including ...
