Characteristics of heat transfer and fluid flow in microchannel heat sinks with rectangular grooves and different shaped ribs
Microchannels are effective heat sinks for microelectronic systems.However, it remains unclear what form of channels will be most effective in improving the overall performance of microchannel heat sinks.The effect of channel geometry was studied using computational fluid dynamics to understand the heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of mi
Eigen decomposition expedites longitudinal genome-wide association studies for milk production traits in Chinese Holstein
Abstract Background Pseudo-phenotypes, such as 305-day yields, estimated breeding values or deregressed proofs, are usually used as response variables for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of milk production traits in dairy cattle.Computational inefficiency challenges ngetikin the direct use of test-day records for longitudinal GWAS with large
Evaluation of CO2 Capture Using Aqueous Ammonia Solution in a Flexible Operation Scenario
Carbon dioxide has the largest contribution to the greenhouse effect among all of the greenhouse gases and its emission levels have become a big concern in the last decades.Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies aim to curb CO2 emissions not only from the power generation but also from other energy-intensive sectors.Among the various approac
