BACKGROUND: Rhers, reservoirs, and estuaries have been modeled for a number of years using the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers TABS numerical modeling system. TABS is a family of numerical models that can simulate hydrodynamic, sediment, and constituent transport processes in these water bodies. One of the most attractive features of the TABS system is the ability to simulate wetting and drying of...

Experimental observations show that the presence of small tabs on the edge of a hot, compressible jet exiting into a slower moving, colder ambient ow can increase the rate of spreading of the jet. This suggests that the rate of mixing of the jet and the ambient uid is also increased. In order to elucidate the physical mechanism responsible for the increased spreading rate a set of calculations ...

In this study, we investigate tabs applied to turbulent flow over a circular cylinder for the reductions of mean drag and lift fluctuations. Tabs are small thin passive devices attached upper lower surfaces near separation. The Reynolds number considered is Re= 3900, based on free-stream velocity diameter. Large eddy simulations performed using dynamic global subgrid-scale eddy-viscosity model....

Background Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), which is characterized by an increased presence of thyroid autoantibodies (TAbs), such as antibodies against thyroid peroxidase (TPOAbs) and antibodies against thyroglobulin (TgAbs), has been reported to be associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) because AITD and RA both involve autoimmunity. However, few data are available on the incidence of TAb...

Li-ion cells of the industrially relevant 21700 format are investigated experimentally by systematic variation their tab design. To observe effects design only, built on pilot scale using same electrodes, electrolyte, and separator. Tabs varied regarding 1) conventionally welded tabs 2) made from electrodes’ foils (“foil tabs”), as well number. Conclusions drawn cell impedances, rate capability...

With over 4.5 million tablatures and chord sequences (collectively known as tabs), the web holds vast quantities of hand annotated scores in non-standardised text files. These scores are typically error-prone and incomplete, and tab collections contain many duplicates, making retrieval of high quality tabs difficult. Despite this, tabs are by far the most popular means of sharing musical instru...

Performance-based tests of functional capacity are important to utilize in schizophrenia where global measures may underestimate community functioning in the context of impoverished environments and disincentives to return to work. The Test of Adaptive Behavior in Schizophrenia (TABS) is a performance-based measure of adaptive functioning designed to address limitations of other available measu...

Testing of a 3D bluff body with and without end plate tabs was performed in the California Polytechnic State University 3x4 ft low speed wind tunnel. The CP values were obtained for the test case with no end plate tabs for speeds of 10, 15, 20, and 30 m/s. It was observed that stronger vortex shedding ocured at the higher speed test cases. The model was shimmed to be at approximately 5° angle o...
