Confined jet impingement boiling in a chamber with staggered pillars by Qiu, Lu, Dubey, Swapnil, Choo, Fook Hoong, Duan, Fei

“…In the simulation, the boiling heat transfer is predicted with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) boiling model, in which the wall heat flux is composed of three parts. The predicted boiling curve is compared with the measured one, and the calculated distributions of the vapor volume fraction adjacent to the boiling wall are compared with the captured images. …”

Common visual pattern discovery and analysis by Wang, Zhenzhen

“…On the one hand, patterns are frequently occurring visual primitives, and they are present in various forms, such as local features, semantic visual parts or visual objects. On the other hand, there exhibit large variations in visual appearances and structures even within the same kind of visual patterns which are exacerbated by prevalence of mobile-captured images. …”
