Hover performance of a twin-rotor test model in terms of rotor overlap sweep, blade collective pitch, and blade tip speedwasexaminedexperimentally.The experimental setup consisted of two three-bladed rotors (tandem rotor configuration) with a diameter of1,220 mm and constant chord of 38 mm, giving a blade aspect ratio of 16.05. The blades were of a rectangular planform with NACA 0012 cross-sect...

using qcd factorization for the hadronic matrix elements, we show that existing data, inparticular the branching ratios br ( b →j/ψk) and br ( b →j/ψπ), can be accounted for in this approach.we analyze the decay b j /k( ) within the framework of qcd factorization. the calculation of therelevant hard-scattering kernels for twist-2 and twist-3 is completed. we calculate this decay in a special...

Vortex extrusion (VE) is a severe plastic deformation technique which is based on the synergies between high strain accumulation and high hydrostatic pressure. Such a high amount of pressure, places a mandate to seek the method for investigation of the load under processing conditions. For this, kinematically admissible velocity field and upper bound terms based on Bezier formulation are develo...

Twist extrusion process is a rather new route to produce highly strained materials. In this process, severe plastic deformation is applied by large shear strains. In current article, required energy for twist extrusion by use of admissible velocity field together with the upper bound technique is predicted. The proposed model is capable of considering the effect of various parameters such as di...

The elastic properties of a molecule of duplex DNA are strongly dependent on nucleotide sequence. In the theory developed here the contribution c of the nth base-pair step to the elastic energy is assumed to be given by a function c̃ of six kinematical variables, called tilt, roll, twist, shift, slide, and rise, that describe the relative orientation and displacement of the nth and (n11)th base ...

Strikingly, this is not true when E has a single rational point of order two. In this case E has a degree two isogeny φ : E → E ′ and an associated Selmer group Selφ(E/Q). Work of Xiong shows that if E does not have a cyclic 4-isogeny de ned over Q(E[2]), then the distribution of the ranks of Selφ(E /Q) as d varies among the squarefree integers less than X tends to the distribution Max{0,N (0, ...

In the present work an attempt has been made to study the effect of the twisted tapes as bed internals, on the performance of the gas-solid fluidized beds. Experimental investigation has been carried out in cylindrical column with and without twisted tapes. Twelve numbers of twisted tapes of three different widths with four values of the twist ratios for each width were studied at different...

Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate how left ventricular twist and torsion are associated with sex between sex groups of the same age.Materials and Methods: In this analytical study, twenty one healthy subjects were scanned in left ventricle basal and apical short axis views to run the block matching algorithm; instantaneous changes in the base and apex rotation angel...

Here x is a periodic configuration variable (usually computed modulo 1), y ∈R is the momentum variable, and the parameter k represents the strength of a nonlinear kick. This map was first proposed in 1968 by Bryan Taylor and then independently obtained by Boris Chirikov to describe the dynamics of magnetic field lines. The standard map and Hénon’s area-preserving quadratic map are extensively s...
