Impact of Mesoscale Motions on Monin-Obukhov Similarity and Surface Energy Balance over a Homogeneous Surface by Yang Guo, Hongchao Zuo

“…In order to understand the effect of mesoscale motions on turbulent fluxes more clearly, this study analyzes the impact of mesoscale motions on MOST and surface energy balance using the multiresolution decomposition method and the observational data over a homogeneous bare soil surface. Two conclusions are obtained: (1) When mesoscale motions are excluded, the scatter of similarity relations is evidently reduced; the observed values of the dimensionless velocity gradient and dimensionless temperature gradient in stable conditions become less than the values estimated using the universal functions, and the flux-variance relationship for temperature clearly deviates from the −1/3 power law. (2) When mesoscale motions are excluded, the number of energy balance closure outliers at night is dramatically reduced, and the energy balance ratio (EBR) is increased. …”

Assessing structural integrity of non-homogeneous systems by means of Acoustic Emissions and Non-Extensive Statistical Mechanics by Stavros K Kourkoulis, Ermioni Pasiou, Ilias Stavrakas, Dimos Triantis

“…The results were considered in juxtaposition to the re­spective ones from experimental protocols with specimens of macroscopically homo­geneous nature. It was concluded that the temporal evolution of the entropic index provides very good insight into the level of damage ac­cumu­lated in the loaded structure, independently of whether the structure is homogeneous or not, providing an interesting pre-failure indicator. …”

Application of HPLC Combined with Laser Induced Fluorescence for Protein Profile Analysis of Tissue Homogenates in Cervical Cancer by Sujatha Bhat, Ajeetkumar Patil, Lavanya Rai, V. B. Kartha, Santhosh Chidangil

“…A highly objective method, High Performance Liquid Chromatography with Laser Induced Fluorescence (HPLC-LIF) technique was used to study the protein profiles of normal and cervical cancer tissue homogenates. A total of 44 samples including normal cervical biopsy samples from the hysterectomy patients and the patients suffering from different stages of the cervical cancer were recorded by HPLC-LIF and analysed by Principle Component Analysis (PCA) to get statistical information on different tissue components. …”
