1D model for the energy yield calculation of natural convection solar air collectors
(2018)A one dimensional model has been developed and presented to calculate the seasonal energy yield of solar air collectors. This model takes into account local meteorological conditions, the effects of geometrical configuration, ...

Adsorption of hexavalent chromium on dunite
(2011)The paper presents and discusses the effect of various physicochemical parameters (e.g. pH, ionic strength, Cr(VI) initial concentration, amount of the adsorbent, temperature and contact time between metal ion and adsorbent) ...

Are any growth theories robust?
(2008)This article investigates the strength of empirical evidence for various growth theories when there is model uncertainty with respect to the correct growth model. Using model averaging methods, we find little evidence that ...

A consistent velocity approximation for variable-density flow and transport in porous media
(2013)Using a finite-volume nodal-based code, we introduce a new consistent numerical scheme for approximating the seepage velocity in variable-density flow in porous media. It has been known from previous works that the lack ...

Controlling illegal immigration: ON the scope for cooperation with a transit country
(2014)We consider the implications of cooperation with respect to immigration control between a final-destination country (D) and its poorer neighbor (T). Assuming that the latter serves as a transit country for undocumented ...

Core of the magnetic obstacle
(2010)Rich recirculation patterns have been recently discovered in the electrically conducting flow subject to a local external magnetic termed "the magnetic obstacle" (E.V. Votyakov, Y. Kolesnikov, O. Andreev, E. Zienicke, and ...

Dispersed-phase structure in sheared MHD turbulence
(2012)Direct numerical simulations are performed to examine particle dispersion in homogeneous turbulence subjected to mean shear and an externally applied magnetic field. We employ the Brucker et al. algorithm for simulating ...

Filling in missing sea-surface temperature satellite data over the Eastern Mediterranean sea using the DINEOF algorithm
(2014)The Data Interpolating Empirical Orthogonal Functions method is a special technique based on Empirical Orthogonal Functions and developed to reconstruct missing data from satellite images, which is especially useful for ...

Spectral density ratio based clustering methods for the binary segmentation of protein sequences: A comparative study
(2010)We compare several spectral domain based clustering methods for partitioning protein sequence data. The main instrument for this exercise is the spectral density ratio model, which specifies that the logarithmic ratio of ...

Wave energy potential in the Eastern Mediterranean Levantine Basin. An integrated 10-year study
(2014)The main characteristics of wave energy potential over Eastern Mediterranean Levantine Basin, an area of increased interest for energy resources exploration/exploitation, is presented in this work. In particular, an ...
