Comparing Depth-Integrated Models to Compute Overland Flow in Steep-Sloped Watersheds by Gergely Ámon, Katalin Bene, Richard Ray

“…Adding Large Eddy Simulation to these solutions tended to overcomplicate Shallow Water solutions but generally improved Large Eddy solutions. The Diffuse Wave Equation solutions produced erratic results, losing stability and accuracy as watershed slopes steepened and flow paths became complex.…”

Drying Process of Senna alata Medicinal Leave: Comparative Empirical and Artificial Neural Networks Modelling of Mass Transfer Kinetics with Energy Analysis by Abiola John Adeyi

“…The effect of SAL form (un-chopped and chopped) and microwave power (200, 400 and 600 W) on the drying characteristics and energy utilization with comparative semi-empirical and artificial neural network (ANN) modelling was investigated. SAL was dried at the selected drying factors (leaf form and microwave power); and moisture transport characteristics including moisture content, moisture ratio, effective moisture diffusivity, activation energy, energy consumption, specific energy consumption and energy efficiency were determined gravimetrically and empirically. …”

Intrinsic Dissolution Modeling: Interdependence Between Dissolution Rate, Solubility, and Boundary Layer Thickness by Amelie Marie Mattusch, Gerhard Schaldach, Jens Bartsch, Markus Thommes

“…The influence of the topography on the modeling was also examined. <b>Results</b>: Besides the prediction of the influence of a surface reaction limitation or the solubility of a diffusion controlled drug, the boundary layer thickness at the tablet surface is modellable in terms of a freely selectable length and as a function of the diffusion coefficient, drug solubility, and the flow velocity of the dissolution medium. …”

Optimising ice flow law parameters using borehole deformation measurements and numerical modelling by David Chandler, Bryn Hubbard, Alun Hubbard, Tavi Murray, David Rippin

“…Results suggest that a linear rheology dominated by diffusion creep (n = 1) is more appropriate for modelling ice flow in this relatively thin (generally <80 m thick) glacier than the conventional n = 3, and that ELZ is ∼2. …”

Eye Collateral Channel Characteristic Analysis and Identification Model Construction of Mild Cognitive Impairment by WU Tiecheng, CAO Lei, YIN Lianhua, HE Youze, LIU Zhizhen, YANG Minguang, XU Ying, WU Jinsong

“…By comparing the model performance, the optimal model was selected to achieve early clinical recognition.ResultsThe important eye collateral channel characteristics of the MCI group were red dots, dull brown spots, dull yellow fog diffusion, mounds, red blood veins, and tortuous blood veins (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05), their distribution frequency was higher than that of the normal cognition group (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05), but the distribution frequency of dull pink spots was lower than that of the normal cognition group (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). …”

3D modelling of a 15th century city gate of Rennes: Portes Mordelaises by Jean-Baptiste Barreau, Elen Esnault, Jérôme Foucher, Manon Six, Cécile Le Faou

“…This reconstruction was carried out under a West Digital Conservatory of Archaeological Heritage project, whose mission is to support and advise archaeologists in the production and exploration of 3D archaeological datasets using the latest digitisation, modelling, and virtual reality (VR) techniques. Through a complex but repeatable process, using the valuable data provided by various excavations, in addition to new information provided by the 3D digitalisation itself, we produced a 3D model, fully satisfactory to rigorous scientific standards, which was then incorporated into a VR space ready for diffusion to the general public. …”
