Withdrawal from a two-layer flow field is examined in terms of
the degree of selectivity of the withdrawal flow and its dependence
on an ambient current. Selectivity is defined as the bias of withdrawing
one layer more strongly than the other; the extreme' case is
complete selective withdrawal, where one...
An experimental study was conducted to determine the hydrodynamic
forces on smooth and roughened circular cylinders as
influenced by a nearby plane boundary. The ambient flow was perpendicular
to the cylinder and parallel to the boundary. Measurements
were taken in a water channel and a wind tunnel to obtain the...
The effect of oral contraceptives on the urinary excretion of
several methionine metabolites was determined in women before and
after they had received a 3-g dose of L-methionine. Nine women
between the ages of 20-29 years served as subjects: five had been
