FUNDAMENTALS OF THE THEORY OF VENTILLATION PROCESSES IN THE STEAM TURBINES TPP by V. M. Neuimin

“…Seven ordinary formulae obtained on its basis provide a separate stage ventilation-losses immediate evaluation (with rotation blades of the finale stage not unwinding from the turning, with rotation blades of the finale and intermediate stages unwinding from the turning), in the turbine altogether-vapor-evacuated including by readings of the regular instruments located at the connecters of the exhaust part of the lowpressure cylinder.As the cornerstone of the new ventilation heating-up evaluation system the author lays two experimentally established facts: the ventilating capacity losses are practically constant at working steam negligible volumetric flow rates; symmetrical ventilating flows in the blade channel mingle entirely to the moment of their split up at the periphery. …”

River System Style Frameworks, New Approach to Management of rivers (Case Study: Karaj Arangeh basin) by shila hajehforosh, amir karam

“…Arangeh River basin were identified in 1and 3 styles, including: Headwater, Gorge style in confined valley setting, planform controlled, floodplain bed, low sinuosity cobble, low sinuosity gravel, bedrock controlled sand, meandering gravel, unconfined low sinuosity cobble with Side stabilized, partly-confined low sinuosity cobble with Side stabilized, partly confined Asymmetric valley with cobble, , partly confined symmetric valley with cobble  ,Artificial bed.Geomorphic conditions of each of the styles were evaluated in the two stage of river style framework. at this stage of adjustment of Each style is determined to the confusion of peak flow by using criteria such as channel characteristics (size, shape, morphology Bank and plants channels), channel plan form (sinuosity, lateral stability, geomorphic units into the channel and River flood plain and plants) and features bed . …”

Learning under label noise through few-shot human-in-the-loop refinement by Aaqib Saeed, Dimitris Spathis, Jungwoo Oh, Edward Choi, Ali Etemad

“…We show that FHLR achieves significantly better performance when learning from noisy labels and achieves state-of-the-art by a large margin, with up to $$19\%$$ accuracy improvement under symmetric and asymmetric noise. Notably, we find that FHLR is particularly robust to increased label noise, unlike prior works that suffer from severe performance degradation. …”

Experimental Behavior of the Curved Continuous Twin I-Girder Composite Bridge with a Precast Concrete Slab Subjected to Bending, Shear, and Torsion by Chuandong Shen, Yifan Song, Lei Yan, Yuan Li, Xueli Wang, Shuanhai He

“…In order to investigate the mechanical behavior, ultimate load carrying capacity, and failure mode of the intact curved continuous twin I-girder composite bridge (TGCB) with a precast concrete slab, one curved continuous composite bridge model with a scale ratio of 1 : 5 of a prototype bridge was designed and manufactured considering the influence of the construction sequence. Four symmetric point loads’ test was carried out. In this paper, load-deflection relationship and strain development of steel girders, concrete slab, and reinforcement at key sections were tested and analyzed. …”

Molecular Structure and Electronic Properties of Porphyrin-Thiophene-Perylene Using Quantum Chemical Calculation by Tatiya Chokbunpiam, Patchanita Thamyongkit, Oraphan Saengsawang, Supot Hannongbua

“…The results from the B3LYP/6–31G(d) approach indicated that significant changes of the torsion angle between the molecular planes of the porphyrin and perylene rings, compared to that of the unsubstituted derivatives, were found in the di-substituted systems bearing R = R′ = −OCH3 and −NH2, and in a mono-substituted system having R = −H and R′=−NH2. The symmetric di-substitution does not provide a significantly lower HOMO-LUMO energy gap (ΔEg). …”
