2D models based on the shallow water equations are widely used in river hydraulics. However, these models can present deficiencies in those cases in which their intrinsic hypotheses are not fulfilled. One of these cases is in the presence of weirs. In this work we present an experimental dataset including 194 experiments in nine different weirs. The experimental data are compared to the numerical results obtained with a 2D shallow water model in order to quantify the discrepancies that exist due to the non-fulfillment of the hydrostatic pressure hypotheses. The experimental dataset presented can be used for the validation of other modelling approaches.

The reflectivity, loss function, refractive index, extinction coefficient and dielectric function of the LaNi5and LaNi4.5Sn0.5intermetallic compounds are investigated through the plane-wave pseudo-potential method based on the density functional theory. The effects of Sn impurity are discussed and some interesting features are found in the low frequency region. Some important optical properties such as static dielectric constant and static refractive index are obtained. The equation [n (0)]2=ε1(0)is satisfied according to our calculation, which indicates that our results are correct and reasonable. Nevertheless, the calculated results need to be testified in the future due to the lack of experimental data.

The present paper illustrates an evaluation method developed by the authors to quantify the index of motion sickness incidence (MSI) in railways motion conditions. This index is formerly defined in literature to quantify diseases coming from low frequency motions (kinetosis). The proposed method, suggested as alternative to the only one existing in reference norm, involves PCT index, well known in railways context, and weighting curves for accelerometric signals, which are also specified in railways regulations. The approach of the method, consistent with the theoretical model, developed by the authors themselves in previous works, allows to obtain MSI index versus time and/or track progressive distance. The model is validated through comparison with experimental data available in literature and with measures recorded and obtained on regular trains during tests performed in Slovenia (EU).

AbstractThe interaction of point detects in ice has been neglected for a long time. Experimental data obtained from dielectric measurements on HF-doped crystals stimulated a new evaluation of the possibility of an interaction between Bjerrum defects and ions. In a previous paper it has been shown that this leads us to assume the existence of aggregates of Bjerrum defects and ions. In this paper these aggregates and Bjerrum defects are used to explain the dielectric properties of ice, especially the temperature dependence of the product of the high and low frequency conductivity σ0σ∞.The interaction of Bjerrum defects and impurity molecules leads to a dependence of the concentration of frenkel pairs on Bjerrum-defect concentration. At HF concentrations above the native Bjerrum-defect concentration the formation of a Frenkel pair is enhanced. This leads to the fast out-diffusion which has been studied in highly doped crystals by means of NMR techniques.

Experimental data obtained by measuring the tangential component of the force affecting radial baffles in a flat-bottomed cylindrical mixing vessel stirred with a Rushton turbine impeller is analysed. Spectral analysis of the experimental data demonstrated the presence of its macro-instability (MI) related low-frequency component embedded in the total force. Two distinct dimensionless frequencies (both directly proportional to the impeller speed of rotation N) of the occurence of the MI component were detected: a lower frequency of approximately 0.025N and a higher frequency of about 0.085N. The relative magnitude QMI of the MI-related component of the total tangential force was evaluated by a combination of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and spectral analysis. The values of magnitude QMI varied in the interval [rom approximately 0.05 to 0.30. The magnitude QMI takes maximum values at low Reynolds number values (in laminar and transitional regions). In the turbulent region (ReM >20000) the QMI value is low and practically constant. The dependence oj the QMI values on vertical position in the vessel is only marginal. The results suggest that the magnitude of the MI component of the force is significantly influenced by the liquid viscosity and density.
