Lacunary statistical convergence of sequences of fuzzy numbers
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 1998)The sequence X = {X-k} of fuzzy numbers is statistically convergent to the fuzzy number X-0 provided that for each epsilon > 0 lim 1/n{the number of k less than or equal to n:(d) over bar(X-k, X-0) greater than or equal ... -
Laminar Mixed-Convection Heat Transfer in a Lid-Driven Cavity with Modified Heated Wall
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2015)In this numerical study, steady laminar mixed-convection heat transfer in a two-dimensional square lid-driven cavity with a modified heated wall is investigated over a range of Richardson numbers, including 0.01, 1, and ... -
Laminarization of internal flows under the combined effect of strong curvature and rotation
(ASME, 2008)The laminarization phenomenon for the flow under the combined effect of strong curvature and rotation is discussed based on numerical predictions of large-eddy simulation (LES). Initially, the laminarization process is ... -
The lamp effect of laser Doppler flowmetry on teeth
(WILEY, 2005)The aim of this study is to analyse the intra and extracoronal scattering of laser light. Twelve vital teeth from 12 volunteer individuals (aged 22-29 years) were used. The camera removing the charge coupled device's ... -
Landslide hazard and risk assessment: a case study from the Hlohovec-Sered' landslide area in south-west Slovakia
(SPRINGER, 2012)Landslide hazard or susceptibility assessment is based on the selection of relevant factors which play a role on the slope instability, and it is assumed that landslides will occur at similar conditions to those in the ... -
