We consider the isentropic compressible Euler system in 2 space dimensions with pressure law p () = (2) and we show the existence of classical Riemann data, i.e. pure jump discontinuities across a line, for which there are infinitely many admissible bounde ...
Biomedical sensing applications, including breath analysis, contribute to increasing the amount of electronic waste, as the sensors are frequently disposed, due to hygienic considerations. Consequently, the development of sustainable sensor solutions is cr ...
Sublimation influences the water storage in snow covers and glaciers, which is important for water use and projections of the sea level rise. Yet, it is challenging to quantify sublimation for large areas or in conditions of snow transport. In-situ measure ...
The yield strength of random metal alloys, i.e. alloys with random occupation of the crystalline lattice sites by the elemental constituent atoms all considered as solutes, is primarily understood as controlled by solute/dislocation interactions. Solute-so ...
The discovery and optimization of phase-change and shape memory alloys remain a tedious and expensive process. Here a simple computational method is proposed to determine the ideal phase- change material for a given alloy composed of three elements. Using ...
The evaporation flux J(ev)(H2O) of H2O from HCl-doped typically 1.5 mu m or so thick vapor-deposited ice films has been measured in a combined quartz crystal microbalance (QCMB)-residual gas mass spectrometry (MS) experiment. J(ev)(H2O) has been found to s ...
Atmospheric aerosol is ubiquitous and its impact on climate and health has not been fully understood yet. Multiple diverse processes and sources lead to atmospheric aerosol formation and emission and this reflects on its heterogeneity in chemical compositi ...
In this paper we extend and complement the results in [4] on the well-posedness issue for weak solutions of the compressible isentropic Euler system in 2 space dimensions with pressure law p(ρ)=ρ\gamme,≥1. First we show that every Riemann p ...
Just noticeable differences in interaural correlation (rho-jnds) from diffuse sound field reference correlations are obtained. In a three-interval, three-alternative forced-choice procedure, rho-jnds are measured for positive and negative deviations from n ...
The combination of reaction calorimetry and supercritical fluids as reactants and/or solvent holds great potential for the optimization of chemical processes using high pressure near-critical and/or supercritical mixtures. The very specific properties of s ...
