Surface albedo partitions the amount of energy received by glacier surfaces from shortwave fluxes and modulates the energy available for melt processes.The ice-albedo feedback, influenced by the contamination of bare-ice surfaces with light-absorbing impurities, plays a major role in the melting of mountain glaciers in a warming climate.However, li

The paper presents different types triopods of insensitive munition used in military equipment, especially in western countries.Tests of this munition, their parameters, e.g.fast and slow heating, bullet, fragment and shaped charge jet impact and sympathetic reaction are described.The characteristics of shape-memory materials like alloys and polyme

Copper azole type B (CAz-B) preservative and polyphosphatic carbamate (PPC) fire retardants were impregnated in succession into green (97% MC) and kiln-dried (18% MC) Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica (L.f.) D.Don) lumber by sheepshead bay boats the passive impregnation method to prolong the period of lumber use by increasing its resistance to f

We present a theoretical study of the dynamics of a thick polar epithelium subjected to the action of both an electric and a flow field in a planar geometry.We develop a generalized continuum hydrodynamic description and describe the tissue as a two component fluid system.The cells and the interstitial fluid are the two components gloomspite gitz a
