Much oil spilled on the surface of calm water spreads in the form of a thin continuous layer with a circular pattern, as a result of gravity and net surface tension. The net surface tension, also known as thespreading coefficient, is the difference between the air-water surface tension and ...
The spreading coefficient (S*) is a measure of the tendency of a non-reacting liquid to spread across a solid surface. From:Fundamentals of Metallurgy,2005 Discover other topics Chapters and Articles You might find these chapters and articles relevant to this topic. ...
(See the Method section). According to the definition of Kendall’s tau coefficient, −1 ≤ τ ≤ 1. In the most ideal case whereτ = 1, for each pair of two nodesiandj, ifiis ranked higher thanjby the method, the spreading originated fromiwill cover more targets than...

where n(x, t) is the population density, D(x) is the diffusion coefficient, u(x) is the advection velocity which is assumed to be proportional to the gradient of the favorability of environment f(x), i.e., \(u(x) \propto df(x)/dx\), and R(x, n) is the per capita growth...
a uniform total heat transfer coefficienthwas assumed for an ambient temperatureTA. The simplest of these models presumes a circular source centered on the surface of a circular substrate, a model that is accurate for many applications. Ellison published design curves and formulae for the maximum...
To improve the model accuracy, it is suggested to take into account the temperature-dependent thermoelectric material properties, including the Seebeck coefficient, thermal conductivity, and electrical resistivity. In detail, the thermal resistance model widely adopts the average temperature to evaluate the...
This paper describes experimental work on the equilibrium spreading coefficient of one liquid on another, S, at elevated temperatures and pressures, and also an attempt to provide a universal correlation for S as a function of temperature T. The new data together with those obtained in the ...
The G in each sub-figure indicates the Gini coefficient of the strength distribution of the corresponding network and it is used to quantify the heterogeneity of each network. Finally, we notice a drop in the attack rate for large values of ϵ: an effect due to the slowing down of the ...
A spreading-resistance silicon thermistor having high-precision values of resistance and temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) is produced by a high-volume, low-cost, photolithographic technique, wherein multiple thin-film contacts are tested and selectively trimmed to permit computerized control of...
