The Role of Business and Engineering Decisions in the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill
On April 20th, 2010, the semi-submersible oil rig Deepwater Horizon exploded in the Gulf of Mexico, killing 11 crew members and allowing crude oil to spill continuously from the seabed. Despite numerous attempts to cap the leak...

How Do Magnetic Field Models Affect Astrophysical Limits on Light Axion-like Particles? An X-Ray Case Study with NGC 1275
Axion-like particles (ALPs) are a well-motivated extension to the standard model of particle physics, and X-ray observations of cluster-hosted AGN currently place the most stringent constraints on the ALP coupling...

Infant Mortality and Working-Class Child Care, 1850-1899. By Melanie Reynolds
A Reid
Mar 07, 2017
This book sets out to prove that nineteenth-century working class women were not always bad mothers. For the volume, Reynolds scoured an enormous volume of contemporary reports, newspaper and journal articles, and other sources...
Aerodynamics of biplane and tandem wings at low Reynolds numbers
Experiments were performed to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of two-wing configurations at a low Reynolds number of 100,000. The wing models were rectangular flat plates with a semi-aspect ratio of two. The stagger...

Site-Specific Cleavage by Topoisomerase 2
In addition to its roles in transcription and replication, topoisomerase 2 (topo 2) is crucial in shaping mitotic chromosomes and in ensuring the orderly separation of sister chromatids. As well as its recruitment throughout the...

Communicating evidence about the environment's role in obesity and support for government policies to tackle obesity
Public support for many policies that tackle obesity by changing environments is low. This may reflect commonly held causal beliefs about obesity, namely that it is due to failures of self-control rather than environmental...
Asymptotically cylindrical Calabi-Yau manifolds

Let M be a complete Ricci-flat Kähler manifold with one end and assume that this end converges at an exponential rate to [0, ∞) x X for some compact connected Ricci-flat manifold X. We begin by proving general structure...

Numerical modelling of unsteady turbulent flow in tubes, including the effects of roughness and large changes in Reynolds number
David Nigel Johnston
Aug 01, 2011
A method has been developed for predicting unsteady turbulent friction in smooth, transitional and rough pipe flow. For transitional and rough pipe flow the effective viscosity at the wall is varied depending on Reynolds number...
Lift enhancement by means of small-amplitude airfoil oscillations at low Reynolds numbers
Force and particle image velocimetry measurements were conducted on a NACA 0012 airfoil undergoing small-amplitude sinusoidal plunge oscillations at a poststall angle of attack and Reynolds number of 10,000. With increasing...
