Modelling the dispersion of flashing jets using CFD
(2008-06-15)Risk assessments related to industrial environments where gas is kept in liquid form under high pressure rely on the results from predictive tools. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is one such predictive tool and it is ... -
A hybrid shared memory execution model for a data parallel language with I/O
(2008)We propose a novel execution model for the implicitly parallel execution of data parallel programs in the presence of general I/O operations. This model is called hybrid because it combines the advantages of the standard ... -
Discriminating coding, non-coding and regulatory regions using rescaled range and detrended fluctuation analysis
(2008-01)In this paper we analyse the efficiency of two methods, rescaled range analysis and detrended fluctuation analysis, in distinguishing between coding DNA, regulatory DNA and non-coding non-regulatory DNA of Drosophila ... -
Is duloxetine safe and effective for the treatment of overactive bladder?
