Waves a heavy, viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting fluid of variable density, in the presence of a magnetic field
The equilibrium of a horizontal layer of a heavy incompressible fluid of variable density p 0 in the vertical direction is stable or unstable according as d p o /dz (z being the...
Non-LTE model atmospheres for central stars of planetary nebulae
A grid of hot non-LTE model atmospheres with H and He opacity sources has been calculated. The emergent fluxes, together with integrals required for Zanstra and Energy-Balance m...
Spring arrival patterns of the Cuckoo<i>Cuculus canorus</i>, Nightingale<i>Luscinia megarhynchos</i>and Spotted Flycatcher<i>Musciapa striata</i>in Britain
Data on the arrival dates of Cuckoo, Nightingale and Spotted Flycatcher published in the Royal Meteorological Society phenological reports are presented. From these records, con...
Textile Masks and Surface Covers—A Spray Simulation Method and a “Universal Droplet Reduction Model” Against Respiratory Pandemics
The main form of COVID-19 transmission is via "oral-respiratory droplet contamination" (droplet: very small drop of liquid) produced when individuals talk, sneeze, or cough. In ...
Experiments on the stability of viscous flow between rotating cylinders II. Visual observations
Measurements of the hydrodynamic stability of viscous flow between rotating cylinders have been made with an apparatus similar to that used by Taylor in his original experiments...
Clinical Experience with Goal Attainment Scaling in Geriatric Care
Objectives: This article presents a qualitative evaluation of the utility of Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) in geriatric care. GASis an individualized outcome measure particularl...
