River channel confluences are sites with continuous changes in the flow structure and sediment transport. A network point of view confluences operate complex interactions between material and energy, provided by the ...

River confluences are notable features in the drainage system with complex hydrodynamics, bed morphology, sediment transport, and mixing processes. Junction planform plays a pivotal role in the confluence hydrodynamics. ...

Driven by the interest of reasoning about probabilistic programming languages, we set out to study a notion of uniqueness of normal forms for them. To provide a tractable proof method for it, we define a property of ...

The relationship between the level of cell confluence near the plateau phase of growth and blastocyst yield following somatic cell cloning is not well understood. We examined the effect of distinct cell culture confluence ...

Confluence–diffluence units are key elements within many river networks, having a major impact upon the routing of flow and sediment, and hence upon channel change. Although much progress has been made in understanding ...

Mid-channel bars and their associated confluences are key morphodynamic nodes within braided rivers, with past studies having investigated the morphodynamics of small natural channels or laboratory models with relatively ...

The upper ocean circulation near the western margin of the South Atlantic Ocean is dominated by the southward flow of the warm and salty Brazil Current and the northward flow of the cold and relatively fresh Malvinas ...

An experimental characterization of the hydrodynamics of a mixing interface at an open channel confluence is presented. In the laboratory experiments, both a confluence and a cylinder set-up were studied in order to validate ...

Congenital anomalies of the inferior vena cava (IVC) call represent a difficult for abdominal surgeries, and the radiologist must be aware even of the less common of these anatomical variations. Preaortic iliac venous ...

This study examines the morphological features, suspended sediment inputs and hydraulic conditions within a large river in association with ecological patterns before and after a tributary confluence. In order to examine ...
