Solutions for the flow of a micropolar fluid in a porous channel

How various additives can increase some cardio-vascular diseases and effects of transport for albumin and glucose through permeable membranes are some important studies in biomechanics. The rolling phenomena of the leucocytes gives rise to an inflammatory reaction along a vascular wall. Initiated by Eringen [5], a micropolar fluid is a satisfactory model for flows of fluids which contain micro-constituents which can undergo rotation.

The resources listed in this document describe the design and construction opportunities available to building owners who wish to re-Life their properties. They do not yet examine management opportunities, which may also help owners improve the efficiency of their existing stock.

Variations in MIMO-OFDM channel capacity due to random human movement in an indoor environment

Channel measurements and simulations have been carried out to observe the effects of pedestrian movement on multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) channel capacity. An in-house built MIMO-OFDM packet transmission demonstrator equipped with four transmitters and four receivers has been utilized to perform channel measurements at 5.2 GHz. Variations in the channel capacity dynamic range have been analysed for 1 to 10 pedestrians and different antenna arrays (2 × 2, 3 × 3 and 4 × 4). Results show a predicted 5.5 bits/s/Hz and a measured 1.5 bits/s/Hz increment in the capacity dynamic range with the number of pedestrian and the number of antennas in the transmitter and receiver array.
