Optical investigation of a long throated Venturi conveying inert spherical particulate with size range similar to pulverised coal
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2011 , Article)
This experimental and numerical calculation work demonstrates the behaviour of a two-phase gas-solid Venturi. The type of two-phase flow studied is that encountered in conveying coal to the furnaces in power stations - a ...
Characterisation of multiphase fluid-structure interaction using non-intrusive optical techniques
(2011 , Article)
The purpose of this study is to determine experimentally the effectiveness of passive drag reduction techniques (which involve adjusting surface geometry) within a chaotic multiphase flow system. To quantify the intrusion ...

On the boundedness of rough oscillatory singular integrals on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces
(
springer link
, 2011 , Article)
We obtain appropriate sharp bounds on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces for rough oscillatory integrals with polynomial phase. By using these bounds and using an extrapolation argument we obtain some new and previously known results ...
On certain estimates of rough oscillatory singular integrals
(2011 , Article)
We obtain appropriate sharp estimates for rough oscillatory integrals with polynomial phase. Our results represent significant improvements as well as natural extensions of what was known previously.

(
Elsevier
, 2011 , Article)
The present article reports the formation of arsenic sulfide films on GaAs by the potentiodynamic polarization in acidified thiourea (TU) electrolytes under photo-illumination. Oxidation of TU competes with the oxidation ...
A modal logic for information system security
