Wall Modeled Large Eddy Simulation of Flow over a Wall Mounted Hump
… grid in the flow over a wall mounted hump at Reynolds number 9.36x105. The wall modeled large eddy simulation (WMLES) relaxes the grid requirement compared to a wall resolved LES (WRLES) by allowing the first off-wall grid point to be placed at a y+ of approximately 20-40. It is found …

Simulation of Railroad Hump Yard Activities With Emphasis on the Configuration of the Classification Yard
The railroad transportation system is composed of three main components of elements: the roadway of track, the vehicle, and the terminal. The "batch" nature of railroad transport increases the relative importance of the terminal as a key in the system. The railroad classification yard, the most …

Changes in morphology during the development of the horn and hump of the Chinese cavefish sinocyclocheillus furcodorsalis
… horn on the top of the skull and dorsal hump rostral under the dorsal fin. The horn and the hump are generally considered troglomorphic characteristics, although their functions are still elusive. Here, the development of these distinctive structures in the species, S. furcodorsalis, was …

Effect of humps on the stability of boundary layers over an airfoil
The effect of humps on the stability of subsonic boundary layers over an airfoil is investigated. The mean flow is calculated by using an interacting boundary-layer solver which accounts for strong viscous/inviscid interaction and separation bubbles. The code is capable of solving compressible as …

The classical theory of field evaporation
… data. A new formalism `extended image-hump formalism' is developed and is used to devise several tests of whether the image-hump mechanism is operating. The general conclusion is that in most cases the Mueller mechanism is not operating and escape takes place via Gomer-type mechanisms.

Secondary instabilities of boundary layers
… instability of incompressible flows over a 2-0 hump is studied using the Floquet model. The mean flow over the hump is calculated by using interacting boundary layers, thereby accounting for viscid/inviscid interactions. The results show that increasing the hump height results in an increase in …

Understanding the Vibrational Features of Hydrogen-Bonded Dimers
… new computational methods to reproduce the multi-hump (broad peak) vibrational features found in many hydrogen-bonded dimers. These methods utilize density functional theory to calculate the potential energy surface and a quantum variational approach to calculate vibrational spectra from these …

The Information Content of Discretionary Disaggregation
… weak fundamentals. In particular, I document a hump-shaped pattern such that both increases and decreases in discretionary disaggregation are negatively associated with measures of performance. Investors do not unravel this information at the time of filing, resulting in predictable return …

The role of inter-plane interaction in the electronic structure of high Tc cuprates
… spectra lineshape. Specifically, the peak-dip-hump lineshape can be easily understood in terms of the superposition of spectral features due to bilayer band splitting, namely the splitting of the CuO2 plane derived electronic structure in bonding and antibonding bands due to the interlayer …

Effect of roughness element on the stability of boundary layers
The instability of flows around hump and dip imperfections is investigated. The mean flow is calculated using interacting boundary layers, thereby accounting for viscous/inviscid interaction and separation bubbles. Then, the two-dimensional linear instability of this flow is analyzed, and the …

Investigations into the segregation of heaps of particulate materials with particular reference to the effects of particle size
… This behaviour increases the severity of a 'hump' pattern that is produced within the vicinity of the heap apex. An embedding mechanism has been identified and attributed to the significant appearance of this behaviour. The significance of this mechanism has not been reported in existing …

Aerodynamics and aeroacoustics of flap side-edges
… surface of the flap. A mid-frequency broadband hump was measured by an on-surface microphone at the point of reattachment of the turbulent shear layer on the flap side-edge. The third source was a low frequency instability in the off-surface vortex due to non-linear vortical interactions …

Essays on growth and development
… share of employment, which is known to follow a hump-shaped pattern as economies structurally transform. Motivated by the observation that capital intensities in manufacturing increase over the development process, this chapter examines whether such changes are important in accounting for the …

Ground reaction forces and control of centre of mass motion during gait : implications for intervention in cerebral palsy
… of the ground reaction force forms a double hump where both humps are equal in magnitude and greater than body weight. It is widely accepted that the first hump (FZ1) is associated with deceleration of the downward motion of the CoM as the foot “impacts” the ground and the second hump (FZ2) …
