Two phase flow splitting in piping branches
The objectives of this research are to evaluate the performance of a flow-splitting tripod, discover the factors which most affect the flow distribution; and quantify the effects of geometry, quality and flow rate on the distribution. Knowing all this allows one to predict the distribution for …

Benefits of branches in sparsely connected networks
Artificial neural networks are most commonly implemented in computer software; however, real time processing and energy efficiency demands require faster and lower power alternatives. Neuromorphic engineering promises speed and energy efficiency, yet these devices can have unique constraints making …

Critical Branches and Lucky Loads in Control-Independence Architectures
I perform a thorough analysis of the performance sensitivity of CI processors to disambiguation and forwarding. The insights from this analysis are used to drive the design of hardware mechanisms to perform these two functions that are low in complexity and yet attain high performance. The basic …

Penetrating injuries of the thoracic aorta and its branches
… with involvem_ent of the thoracic aorta and its branches among American soldiers. Furthermore, no injuries to the thoracic aorta and its branches were recorded in Korean war soldiers undergoing vascular surgery by both Jahnke and Hughes. Rich reported 3 survivors of aortic injuries in the Vietnam …

Exploiting Instruction Level Parallelism in the Presence of Conditional Branches
… speculation only removes dependences between branches and other instructions. The branches themselves remain in the code, which causes difficult problems. This motivates the second technique investigated in this dissertation, predicated execution, which is an architectural capability that …

Studies on the factors influencing inhibition of lateral buds and branches
The roles of light, nitrogen and I.A.A. in particular, have been investigated and evaluated in terms of their relative importance in the outgrowth of lateral buds. Both nitrogen and light are shown to be major factors in tillering of ryegrass and in addition that high nitrogen levels alone induce …

LLC Resonant Converter Based Single-stage Inverter with Multi-resonant Branches
This paper presents a single-stage inverter with variable frequency modulation (VFM) based on LLC resonant converter. And LLC converter is a common topology of dc/dc conversion. LLC resonant converter can achieve high efficiency and soft-switching performance. Since the dc gain curve of the …

Enchantment, treasures and the otherworld in the Four Branches of the mabinogi.
… and types of enchantments found in the Four Branches of the Mabinogi. The synchronic use of enchantment within the landscape, animal transformation and the use of natural magic is analysed – in particular, the role of natural magic to aid conjuring in Math. Alongside the discussion on …

Perceptions of Annwn : the otherworld in the four branches of the Mabinogi.
… information about the realm of Annwn in the Four Branches, and relatively few publications have explored the Otherworld in the Mabinogi in any depth. The redactor presumably did not deem such detail necessary since in his time the Otherworld was a place familiar to his audience from many other …

New insights on measuring bank branches efficiency through DEA:transactional, operational, and profit assessments
… application to measuring the efficiency of bank branches. The advent of internet banking and phone banking is changing the role of bank branches from a predominantly transaction-based one to a sales-oriented role. This fact requires the development of new forms of assessing and comparing branches …

Handedness and the geometry and hemodynamics of the branches of the aortic arch
Asymmetry in the vasculature arising from the human aortic arch seems the obvious place to look for an anatomical basis for lateralized cerebral functions, but this relationship has never systematically been investigated. This study explored the relationship between handedness and the anatomical …

Dynamic modeling of branches and knot formation in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) trees
… diameter growth, death and self-pruning of branches in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) trees was developed. A data set was obtained from a destructive sampling of whorl sections from 34 trees growing under different initial spacing. Data from dissected branches were used to develop a model …

Modeling the diameter and locational distributions of branches within the crowns of loblolly pine trees
… used to describe the diameter distribution of branches. Circular statistics were used to examine branching patterns around the bole. A recursive system of 2 equations was developed in order to predict the total number of branches within a crown. A series of 3 equations was used to describe the …

Effects of the geometric modifications on the shear layer excitation source in co-axial side branches
This comprehensive study delves into the interaction between shear layer oscillations and the acoustic field within co-axial cavities, spotlighting the efficacy of the sound source model as a reliable semi-empirical modeling methodology. The focus is on how the downstream acoustic boundary …

The demographic impacts of browsing on woody plants in savannas : from individual branches to whole populations
Browsing ungulates can potentially have drastic impacts on vegetation patterns. This is particularly true in African savannas where many large browsers persist at high densities. Most of the theory and models outlining mechanisms of impact on plants and predicting responses are framed in terms of …
