By using convenient modified multipliers we obtain an observability inequality provided suitable geometric condition on the domain is valid and the speed velocity of the models are related.展开更多

Of the 10 crosses, cross K603 x K560 was most promising as it yielded highest number of recombinants (21 in irrigated and 36 in rainfed conditions); the cultivar K506 was considered as drought resistant (drought susceptibility index 〈 1). A total of 22 out of 64 and 18 out of 59 most promising F2 recombinants in irrigated and rainfed conditions, respectively from 6 crosses were evaluated for yield, harvest index as well as proline content. All the recombinants selected under rainfed condition (including a few from irrigated condition) showed enhanced level of proline content coupled with high grain yield and harvest index. Further, a total of twenty-nine segregants (12 rainfed and 17 irrigated derived cultures) showing significantly higher values of proline content and grain yield were grown during 2007-2008 under both the environments, rainfed and irrigated to determine the geometric mean (GM) and drought susceptibility index (S). The segregants (Culture No. 8, 10 & 13) derived from cross K 603 × K 560 and culture No. 5 from K 560 × RD 2508 gave maximum mean yield under rainfed and geometric mean coupled with lower drought susceptibility index (S). Also, it has been observed that the transgressive segregants selected from limited water environment (rainfed) performed better than those selected from irrigated environment for higher grain yield and drought tolerance.展开更多

It was clearly pointed out through a meticulous experimental research on the batch crystallization of CAM (citric acid monohydrate) carried out in the years 1997-1998 by the author at the historic laboratories of"La Sapienza" University of Rome. Such pioneering M.Sc. thesis, supervised by Prof. Barbara Mazzarotta (Department of Chemical Engineering), was already summarized in an informative essay but, since the crystallization operating conditions to optimize were illustrated "collectively", it seemed necessary a further paper expounding uniquely the geometry effect. Our aim is to use all the data, collected and simulated, in order to show why the round-bottomed crystallizer performed better than the conical-bottomed one with the CAM from aqueous solutions, and why we should discard the flat-bottomed crystallizers.展开更多

Over the past few years due to multifunetion, shrinking package size and high power dissipation, the heat flux per unit area has increased significantly. Microchannels, with their large heat transfer surface to volume ratio and their small volumes, have shown a good thermal performance. Microchannels have been proven to be a high per- formaace cooling technique which is able to dissipate heat flux effectively from localized hot spots over small surface area. A good amount of heat transfer augmentation techniques have been reported on flow disruption through microchannel. These techniques promote free stream separation at the leading edge which results in boundary layer development and enhanced mixing leading to increased heat transfer. Flow disruption can be achieved through passive surface modifications, such as, shape of channel, dimple surfaces, ribs, cavities, groove structures, porous medium, etc. Combined effects of these geometrical configurations in heat transfer augmenta- tion are also reported in the literature. In this paper recent developments in experimental and numerical simula- tions of single-phase liquid cooled microchannel have been discussed to analyze the pressure drop, friction and heat transfer characteristics due to different flow conditions, roughness structure and passive surface modifica- tions. It has been observed that the flow disruption techniques are effective for heat transfer enhancement with lower penalties of increased pressure drop. The review concludes with suggestions for future research in this area.展开更多

Hong and Mok have developed Cartan-Fubini extension for non-equidimensional holomorphic immersions from a connected open subset of a Pano manifold of Picard number 1 into a uniruled projective manifold, under the assumptions that the map sends VMRT's onto linear sections of VMRT's and it satisfies a mild geometric condition formulated in terms of second fundamental forms on VMRT's. In the current paper, we give a generalization of Hong and Mok's result, under the same condition on second fundamental forms, assuming only that the holomorphic immersions send VMRT's to VMRT's. Our argument is different from Hong and Mok's and is based on the study of natural foliations on the total family of VMRT's. This gives a substantially simpler proof than Hong and Mok's argument.展开更多

Computational formula for a 9-node NMM based on quadratic B-splines is derived. In order to exactly represent some common free-form shapes such as circles, arcs, and ellipsoids, quadratic non-uniform rational B-splines(NURBS) are introduced into NMM. The coordinate transformation based on the basis function of NURBS is established to enable exact integration for the manifold elements containing those shapes. For the case of crack propagation problems where singular fields around crack tips exist, local refinement technique by the application of T-spline discretizations is incorporated into NMM, which facilitates a truly local refinement without extending the entire row of control points. A local refinement strategy for the 4-node mathematical cover mesh based on T-splines and Lagrange interpolation polynomial is proposed. Results from numerical examples show that the 9-node NMM based on NURBS has higher accuracies. The coordinate transformation based on the NURBS basis function improves the accuracy of NMM by exact integration. The local mesh refinement using T-splines reduces the number of degrees of freedom while maintaining calculation accuracy at the same time.展开更多

The objective function is the sum of a global dissipative function and the power of the fluid. The control variables are the geometry of the boundary and the state equations are the Navier-Stokes equations. The Euler-Lagrange equations of the optimal control problem are derived, which are an elliptic boundary value system of fourth order, coupled with the Navier-Stokes equations. The authors also prove the existence of the solution of the optimal control problem, the existence of the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations with mixed boundary conditions, the weak continuity of the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations with respect to the geometry shape of the blade's surface and the existence of solutions of the equations for the Gateaux derivative of the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations with respect to the geometry of the boundary.展开更多
