a water distribution network is subjected to various abnormal conditions such as pipe breaks, pump failures, excessive demands etc. in the design period. under such conditions, the network may not be able to meet required demands at desired pressures, and becomes deficient. traditional network analysis assumes nodal demands to be satisfied and available nodal pressures are calculated. however, ...

A water distribution network is subjected to various abnormal conditions such as pipe breaks, pump failures, excessive demands etc. in the design period. Under such conditions, the network may not be able to meet required demands at desired pressures, and becomes deficient. Traditional network analysis assumes nodal demands to be satisfied and available nodal pressures are calculated. However, ...

The paper presents analysis of two-dimensional non-Newtonian incompressible viscous flow between parallel plates. The governing problem of momentum equations are reduced to NODE using similarity transformations. The resulting equation is solved using series solution and homotopy analysis method. These methods have advantages over pure numerical methods for obtaining the derived quantities accur...

Measures of network structural integrity useful in the analysis and synthesis of power systems are discussed. Signal flow methodology is applied to derive an expression for the paths between sources and sinks in a power network. Connectivity and reach ability properties of the network are obtained using the minors of a modified connectivity matrix. Node-connectivity, branch connectivity and mix...

background: to evaluate the efficacy of color doppler ultrasound (cdus) in differentiating benign and malignant cervical lymph nodes by detecting differences in blood flow patterns. materials and methods: in this cross‑sectional prospective study, 25 untreated patients with clinical evidence of cervical lymphadenopathy were evaluated. cdus was performed for 80 cervical lymph nodes. the gray sca...

introduction: the ablation technique is one of the important therapeutic interventions for treatment of av nodal tachyarrhythmia. different animal models have been developed to study the effects of ablation on the functional interanodal structure. the aim of the present study was to develop a new model of computer analysis to produce lesions by using direct voltage in isolated perfused rabbit a...

the paper presents the semi-numerical solution for the magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) viscous flow due to a stretching sheet caused by boundary layer of an incompressible viscous flow. the governing partial differential equations of momentum equations are reduced into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (node) by using a classical similarity transformation along with appropriate boundary cond...

introduction: intranodal pathways of atrioventricular (av) node play a vital role in the delay of conduction time in response to various atrial inputs. the present study was aimed to determine the frequency-dependent electrophysiological properties of concealed slow pathway according to a functional model of isolated rabbit atrioventricular node preparation after fast pathway ablation. methods:...
