Open water disposal of barged sediment by Er, Jenn Wei

“…Upon impact on the seabed, the intrusion of the collapsed cloud was then investigated as a gravity current, and a modified Box-Model was developed to simulate the motion. The last part of the study investigated the formation of a new regime, within which sediments descend through the water column as sediment clumps.…”

Computational fluid dynamics simulation of jet in crossflow by Ahmad Anwar

“…It can be concluded that a higher drain mast height and smaller jet exit diameter would produce the least amount of stains on the aircraft belly. The configuration with the greater height of 60 mm and jet exit diameter of 2.5 mm produced the least amount of acetone mass on the ground of the test domain at a value of 7.451x10-6. …”

Stem Life: A Framework for Understanding the Prebiotic-Biotic Transition by Fournier, Gregory P.

“…In this new paradigm, extant life’s ancestral lineage emerged alongside and was dependent upon many other complex prebiotic chemical systems, as part of a diverse and fecund prebiosphere. Drawing from several natural history analogies, I show how this shift in perspective enriches our understanding of Origins and directly informs debates on defining Life, the emergence of the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA), and the implications of prebiotic chemical experiments.…”

Oxford-IIIT TRECVID 2010 – notebook paper by Juneja, M, Chandra, S, Parkhi, OM, Jawahar, CV, Vedaldi, A, Marszalek, M, Zisserman, A

“…All runs used a combination of an image-level dense visual words classifier and an object-level part based detector. For each of the ten features, these two methods were ranked based on their performance on a validation set and associated to successive runs by decreasing performance (we also used a number of different techniques to recombine the scores). …”
