An analysis was conducted to determine the effects of nonlinearity in
the one dimensional Navier-Stokes equation describing a viscous fluid flow.
An attempt was made to numerically determine the effect of temperature
variance on the fluid, either by varying the constant viscosity factor in the
energy dissipative term in the...
Cooperative marine fisheries research—the practice of involving the expertise of fishermen and scientists in conducting studies of ocean fishes—has increased gradually over the past 50 years on the US west coast. However, few studies have systematically collected and analyzed the experiences and perceptions of numerous cooperative marine fisheries research project...
Wave energy holds great promise to be part of the alternative energy portfolio that will provide independence from fossil fuels. As wave energy converter (WEC) technologies mature, designing effective control strategies to extract maximum energy, extend device life, coordinate WEC operation within an array, or mitigate negative impacts of a...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the current status of the
implementation of Benin's new elementary science curriculum. The study
used the Concerns-Based Adoption Model (CBAM), a model designed to
evaluate the implementation of educational innovations. Specifically the
study attempted to ascertain teachers' concerns about the science curriculum,...
