Glacier mass balance is estimated for South Cascade Glacier and Maclure Glacier using a one-dimensional regression of mass balance with altitude as an alternative to the traditional approach of contouring mass balance values. One attractive feature of regression is that it can be applied to sparse data sets where contouring is not possible and can provide an objective error of the resulting est...

The mass balance of surface-adsorbing additives in a microvia filling bath is modeled. The model considers the additives’ mass balance between both the solution and the surface-adsorbed layer of additives, as well as on a shapechanging cathode surface, where mass balance of the additives is affected by the surface shape changes. The model is implemented as a finite element model, which applies ...

Thermal modeling of an automotive cabin was performed in this paper to predict the inside cabin air temperature. To implement this task, thermal and ventilation loads were estimated and the mass and energy balance conservation equations for dry air and water vapor with considering a new parameter (air circulation ratio) as well as the balance equations of internal components of a cabin were de...

CONTEXT Virtual reality environments may allow researchers to investigate functional balance performance without risks associated with testing in the real world. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of the mass of a head-mounted display (HMD) on balance performance. DESIGN Counterbalanced pretest-posttest. SETTING Virtual reality laboratory. PARTICIPANTS 20 healthy college students. I...

Fenton process, as one of the most conventional advanced oxidation processes, is widely used in the treatment of specific wastewaters, especially landfill leachate. In current study, the main target was to evaluate some neglected aspects of Fenton process in operational applications. Thus, three novel responses were introduced. Mass removal efficiency evaluates overall recalcitrant destruction ...
