Summary The uniqueness of some helical flows of a second grade fluid, between two infinite circular cylinders, is proved. Initially, the fluid is at rest and flow is produced by the motion of the cylinders. Finally, the special case of a flow in a circular cylinder is considered. 相似文献
This paper presents the mass transfer results from an impinging liquid jet to a rotating disk. The mass transfer coefficients were measured using the electrochemical limiting diffusion current technique (ELDCT). Rotational Reynolds number (Rer) in the range of 3.4 × 104–1.2 × 105, jet Reynolds number (Rej) 1.7 × 104–5.3 × 104 and non-dimensional jet-to-disk spacing (H/d) 2–8 were taken into consideration as parameters. It was found that the jet impingement resulted in a substantial enhancement in the mass transfer compared to the case of the rotating disk without jet. 相似文献
Excess body fat is a major risk factor for disease primarily due to its endocrine activity. In recent years several criteria
have been introduced to evaluate this factor. Nevertheless, treatment need is currently assessed only on the basis of an individual's
Body Mass Index (BMI), calculated as body weight (in kg) divided by height in m2. The aim of our study was to determine whether application of the BMI, compared to adiposity-based criteria, results in underestimation
of the number of subjects needing lifestyle intervention. 相似文献
After a series of earthquakes in 1999, Turkish Red Crescent (TRC) has engaged in a restructuring for all of its activities, including the blood services. Our study on the blood management system had been started as part of this initiative to restructure the blood services and improve both their effectiveness and efficiency. In the current system of TRC, not much consideration has been given to how the locational decisions affect the performance of blood centers, stations and mobile units. In recent years, however, there has been much discussion regarding the regionalization of the blood management system in Turkey. In this study, we develop several mathematical models to solve the location–allocation decision problems in regionalization of blood services. We report our computational results, obtained by using real data, for TRC blood services. 相似文献
The detection of software vulnerabilities is considered a vital problem in the software security area for a long time. Nowadays, it is challenging to manage software security due to its increased complexity and diversity. So, vulnerability detection applications play a significant part in software development and maintenance. The ability of the forecasting techniques in vulnerability detection is still weak. Thus, one of the efficient defining features methods that have been used to determine the software vulnerabilities is the metaheuristic optimization methods. This paper proposes a novel software vulnerability prediction model based on using a deep learning method and SYMbiotic Genetic algorithm. We are first to apply Diploid Genetic algorithms with deep learning networks on software vulnerability prediction to the best of our knowledge. In this proposed method, a deep SYMbiotic-based genetic algorithm model (DNN-SYMbiotic GAs) is used by learning the phenotyping of dominant-features for software vulnerability prediction problems. The proposed method aimed at increasing the detection abilities of vulnerability patterns with vulnerable components in the software. Comprehensive experiments are conducted on several benchmark datasets; these datasets are taken from Drupal, Moodle, and PHPMyAdmin projects. The obtained results revealed that the proposed method (DNN-SYMbiotic GAs) enhanced vulnerability prediction, which reflects improving software quality prediction.

Summary A mathematical model for the solidification process of a melted film coating a spherical particle plunged in an immobile fluid is presented. This model may be used in order to determine temperature distribution in the vicinity of the particle. The results obtained using a melted sulphur thin film cooled with air are consistent with the data available in literature. 相似文献
The past decade revealed that cell identity changes, such as dedifferentiation or transdifferentiation, accompany the insulin-producing β-cell decay in most diabetes conditions. Mapping and controlling the mechanisms governing these processes is, thus, extremely valuable for managing the disease progression. Extracellular glucose is known to influence cell identity by impacting the redox balance. Here, we use global proteomics and pathway analysis to map the response of differentiating human pancreatic progenitors to chronically increased in vitro glucose levels. We show that exogenous high glucose levels impact different protein subsets in a concentration-dependent manner. In contrast, regardless of concentration, glucose elicits an antipodal effect on the proteome landscape, inducing both beneficial and detrimental changes in regard to achieving the desired islet cell fingerprint. Furthermore, we identified that only a subgroup of these effects and pathways are regulated by changes in redox balance. Our study highlights a complex effect of exogenous glucose on differentiating pancreas progenitors characterized by a distinct proteome signature. 相似文献
This paper is the first one of the two papers entitled “modeling and solving mixed-model assembly line balancing problem with setups”, which has the aim of developing the mathematical programming formulation of the problem and solving it with a hybrid meta-heuristic approach. In this current part, a mixed-integer linear mathematical programming (MILP) model for mixed-model assembly line balancing problem with setups is developed. The proposed MILP model considers some particular features of the real world problems such as parallel workstations, zoning constraints, and sequence dependent setup times between tasks, which is an actual framework in assembly line balancing problems. The main endeavor of Part-I is to formulate the sequence dependent setup times between tasks in type-I mixed-model assembly line balancing problem. The proposed model considers the setups between the tasks of the same model and the setups because of the model switches in any workstation. The capability of our MILP is tested through a set of computational experiments. Part-II tackles the problem with a multiple colony hybrid bees algorithm. A set of computational experiments is also carried out for the proposed approach in Part-II. 相似文献
