South Sea Daggers and the Dead Man’s Eye: Foreign Invasion in Fin-de-Siècle Optogram Fiction by Andrea Goulet

“…This study looks at four fin-de-siècle texts that revolve around the central conceit of the ‘optogram,’ the photograph of a retinal image in a cadaver’s eye: Villiers de l’Isle-Adam’s Claire Lenoir (1867–87), Rudyard Kipling’s ‘At the End of the Passage’ (1891), Jules Claretie’s L’Accusateur (1897), and Jules Verne’s Les Frères Kip (1902). …”

A Characteristic Analysis of One-Dimensional Two-Fluid Model with Interfacial Area Transport Equation by Xia Wang, Xiaodong Sun

“…The momentum flux parameters, which take into account the coupling of the volumetric fraction of phase and velocity distributions over the cross-section of a flow passage, are employed. A necessary condition for the system to achieve hyperbolicity under an adiabatic flow condition is identified. …”

A structure of persuasion in Galatians: epistolary and rhetorical appeal in an aural setting by D. Mitternacht

“…The different readings reveal a structure of persuasion with a realistic prospect to succeed as a mnemonic device in an aural setting on a macro-structural level. Situational passages (1:6-10; 3:1-5; 4:8-20; 5:2-12 and 6:12-13), together with recurring affirmations of Christ and Paul as embodiments of faithfulness and commitment in suffering, imprint on the aural memory of the first listeners a concern for an imitatio Christi crucifixi. …”

Simulation of a Centrifugal Pump by Using the Harmonic Balance Method by Franco Magagnato, Jinfeng Zhang

“…At 0.6Qd, some vortices begin to appear in the impeller, and at 0.4Qd some vortices have blocked the flow passage. The flow fields at different positions at 0.6Qd and 0.4Qd show how the complicated flow phenomena are forming, developing, and even disappearing. …”

Posttranslational Modifications and the Immunogenicity of Biotherapeutics by Roy Jefferis

“…Whilst the amino acid sequence of a protein is determined by its gene sequence, the final structure and function are determined by posttranslational modifications (PTMs), including quality control (QC) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and during passage through the Golgi apparatus. These processes are species and cell specific and challenge the biopharmaceutical industry when developing a production platform for the generation of recombinant biologic therapeutics. …”

The Ubiquity of Strange Frontiers: Minor Eschatology in Richard Powers’s The Echo Maker by Zachary Tavlin

“…Here, unknown space is re-encountered as ubiquitous and diffusive, so that one can cross such a frontier into strange, unfamiliar space and time virtually anywhere. In the novel, the passage into an unfamiliar here and now, where governing epistemic paradigms break down, can occur in the middle of “nowhere,” or even in the supposedly happy confines of the middle-class home.…”

CFD Prediction and Experimental Measurement of Blade Water Coverage in a Diesel Turbocharger by Jun Yao, Yufeng Yao

“…Experiments are focussed on blade surface temperature measurements, while CFD modelling with a coupled Eulerian/Lagrangian method is used for capturing the complex gas/liquid two-phase flow behaviours inside the induction duct and the blade passage. It was found that numerical predictions are in a good agreement with experimental data in terms of temperature distributions of the blade leading edge region and water coverage over the blade ring. …”
