To improve power production and structural reliability of wind turbines, there is a pressing
need to understand how turbines interact with the atmospheric boundary layer. However, …

Animals use both pendular and elastic mechanisms to minimize energy expenditure during
terrestrial locomotion. Elastic gaits can be either bilaterally symmetric (eg run and trot) or …

purpose. Topical steroids are frequently used to control corneal inflammation and uveitis or
is administered after surgery, to prevent corneal graft rejection. This study was undertaken to …

The spatial evolution of a turbine wake downwind of a three-dimensional sinusoidal hill is
studied using large-eddy simulations and wind tunnel measurements. The computed flow …

Measurements of the instantaneous wake flow from a model wind turbine placed in a turbulent
boundary layer were obtained by wall-parallel oriented particle image velocimetry (PIV) in …

Purpose. Exposure to Acanthamoeba species appears to be ubiquitous, as 50% to 100% of
healthy human subjects display anti-Acanthamoeba antibodies. However, the presence of …

Kidney stones increase after menopause, suggesting a role for estrogen deficiency. ArKO
mice have hypercalciuria and lower levels of calcium transport proteins, whereas levels of the …

Neutrophils are thought to be involved in many infectious diseases and have been found in
high numbers in the corneas of patients withAcanthamoeba keratitis. Using a Chinese …

Metal alkoxide complexeshave received renewed attention as precursors for metal oxides.
1 A recent application toward ceramic materials,“sol-gel” processing, uses the tendency of …

The structure of flow turbulence, measured experimentally, in the wake of a model wind
turbine is investigated here through higher order scale-dependent statistics of the velocity …
