Abstract The buffet flow field around supercritical airfoils is dominated by self-sustained shock wave oscillations on the suction side of wing. Theories assume that this unsteadiness driven a feedback loop disturbances in downstream whose upstream propagating part generated acoustic waves. High-speed particle-image velocimetry measurements are performed to investigate transonic over DRA 2303 a...

Purpose: The aim of this study is to predict perceived risk and consumer willingness in recommending takeaway food from restaurant served buffet style. Methodology/Approach: This used an online survey 170 consumers who were selected based on purposive sampling method. research questionnaire was adapted previous research. data analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), with Smart PLS. F...

Buffeting is an aeroelastic phenomenon which plagues high performance aircraft at high angles of attack. For the F/A-18 at high angles of attack, vortices emanating from wing/fuselage leading edge extensions burst, immersing the vertical tails in their turbulent wake. The resulting buffeting of the vertical tails is a concern from fatigue and inspection points of view. Previous flight and wind-...

Thirteen physically active, eumenorrheic, normal-weight (BMI < 25 kg/m2) females, aged 18-30 years, completed 4 experimental conditions, with the order based on a Latin Square Design: (a). CHO/Ex: moderate-intensity exercise (65% VO2peak) with a net energy cost of approximately 500 kcals, during which time the subject consumed a carbohydrate beverage (45 g CHO) at specific time intervals; (b). ...

BACKGROUND Central nervous system histaminergic tone is thought to play a role in appetite regulation. In animal models, histamine receptor 1 (HRH1) agonists and histamine receptor 3 (HRH3) antagonists decrease food intake. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to examine the acute effects of betahistine hydrochloride (an HRH1 agonist and HRH3 antagonist) on food intakes and appetites. ...

Latent feature models are attractive for image modeling, since images generally contain multiple objects. However, many latent feature models ignore that objects can appear at different locations or require pre-segmentation of images. While the transformed Indian buffet process (tIBP) provides a method for modeling transformation-invariant features in unsegmented binary images, its current form...

The Indian Buffet Process (IBP) is a nonparametric prior for latent feature models in which observations are influenced by a combination of hidden features. For example, images may be composed of several objects and sounds may consist of several notes. Latent feature models seek to infer these unobserved features from a set of observations; the IBP provides a principled prior in situations wher...
