13. Extracellular diffusion quantified by magnetic resonance imaging during rat C6 glioma cell progression
Solution reflux and edema hamper the convection-enhanced delivery of the standard treatment for glioma. Therefore, a real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method was developed to monitor the dosing process, but a quantitative analysis of local diffusion and clearance parameters has not been assessed. The objective of this study was to compare diffusion

14. The impact of convective drying on the color, phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of noni (Morinda citrifolia L.)
Abstract The effect of thin-layer drying temperature on color, phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of noni slices was investigated. Noni slices were air-dried at 50, 60 and 70 °C under natural convection conditions. Drying curves were fitted to thin-layer drying models in order to evaluate the drying characteristics of the product. In addition, an uns

15. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulating heated air from wood burning inside a poultries barn
ABSTRACT Animal welfare is essential for livestock yield gains, which has been ethically justifiable and socially acceptable. Thus, our research aimed to test computational fluid dynamics model (CFD) to simulate heated air within a poultry barn. Data were simulated in CFD software based on Navier-Stokes equations (geometry of 3 m x 6 m, considering a symmetr

16. Effects of drying air temperature and grain initial moisture content on soybean quality (Glycine Max (L.) Merrill)
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effect of air-drying temperature and initial moisture content on volume shrinkage, physical quality and oil extraction yield of soybean grains. The grains used in this experiment were harvested at two distinct moisture levels of 19 and 25%. Then, these grains were taken to dryness at three different air temperatures

17. LINEAR STABILITY ANALYSIS AND CFD SIMULATION OF DOUBLE-LAYER RAYLEIGH-BÉNARD CONVECTION
Abstract Natural convection in superimposed layers of fluids heated from below is commonly observed in many industrial and natural situations, such as crystal growth, co-extrusion processes and atmospheric flow. The stability analysis of this system reveals a complex dynamic behavior, including the potential multiplicity of stationary states and occurrence o

18. NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE INCOMPRESSIBLE TURBULENT FLOW OF A BINARY MIXTURE OF AIR-WATER VAPOR: APPLICATIONS IN DRYING PROCESS
Abstract The present work deals with numerical simulation of the incompressible turbulent flow of a binary mixture air-water vapor inside channels. Calculations are performed using the RANS (Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes Equations) formulation in addition to the standart k-ε turbulence model. The mathematical model is discretized by a finite difference sch

19. CHOOSING THE OPTIMAL GEL MORPHOLOGY IN ELECTROPHORESIS SEPARATION BY A DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION APPROACH (DEA)
Abstract This paper introduces an effective optimization approach to investigate the morphological effects of nanocomposite gel electrophoresis and operational parameters (see below) by integrating the numerical simulations based on finite element method and population-based search algorithm such as differential evolution. Simulations are performed to study

20. NUMERICAL MODELING OF HEAVY HYDROCARBON LIQUID HEATING
Abstract The results of two-dimensional mathematical modeling of heat and mass transfer in a highly viscous hydrocarbon liquid by inductive and radio-frequency (RF) electromagnetic (EM) heating are presented. The model takes into account the dependence of the liquid's viscosity and thermal conductivity on the temperature and also the presence of thermal conv

22. On the Natural Convection in the Columnar to Equiaxed Transition in Directionally Solidified Aluminum-based Binary and Multicomponent Alloys
In order to investigate the effect of natural convection in columnar to equiaxed transition (CET), Al-3.0wt.%Cu and Al-3.0wt.%Cu-5.5wt.%Si alloys ingots were obtained during the transient horizontal directional solidification (THDS). Aiming to analyze the effect of superheat in the formation of the macrostructure in ternary Al-Cu-Si alloy, the experiments we

23. Interannual Variability of Precipitation for the Centro de Lançamento de Alcântara in ENSO-Neutral Years
ABSTRACT: The interannual variability of precipitation in El Niño/Southern Oscillation-neutral years was studied for the Centro de Lançamento de Alcântara region. Monthly precipitation, sea surface temperature, wind at 925 hPa and outgoing longwave radiation data from various gridded datasets for the 1951-2010 period (60 years) were used. The data groupin
