Supplementary mathematical analysis and comparison with the results of tests. This report is one of a series issued in cooperation with the Army-Navy-Civil Committee on Aircraft Design Criteria under the supervision of the Aeronautical Board.
A global solution is presented that accurately accounts for the
singular behavior at all irregular points. The linearized boundary
value problem in a semi-infinite strip in the physical plane is
transformed into a smooth unit disk by two successive conformal
mappings. The global solution results from a Fredholm integral
equation...

Burial Lake sediments from the Noatak Basin in the northwest Brooks Range of Arctic Alaska (68.43°N, 159.17°W, 21.5 m water depth) provide the oldest continuous lacustrine record of paleo-environmental change and paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in eastern Beringia. A precise radiocarbon chronology, determined through accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) allows us...
The understanding of critical heat flux is crucial for the safety of nuclear reactors. To this end, many studies have been carried out to understand various aspects of the boiling crisis phenomenon. Power transient critical heat flux trigger mechanisms is a small category that is relatively under-studied and not well...
The paper concerns itself with the problem of heat transport
in a homogeneous, incompressible, isotropic, semi-infinite solid
whose boundary is nonstationary. The methods of solution in the one
dimensional case are discussed. Numerical examples and a method
for arriving at the solutions published by Bailey and Lakin in their
paper...
Shrimp farming has been developing fast in Vietnam recently and is facing a number of challenges. These include environmental and socio-economic impacts, volatile international markets and current anti-dumping issues. This paper provides and analytical overview of major problems faced by the industry in Vietnam based on a literature review and...
Random waves are often expressed as a mathematical superposition
of an infinite number of sinusoidal components. The mean square spectral
density of the water surface elevation is often called the wave spectrum.
The zero upcrossing wave heights usually have a Rayleigh probability
distribution. However, the design wave concept is still...
