Effect of Viscous Dissipation, Soret and Dufour Effect on Free Convection Heat and Mass Transfer from Vertical Surface in a Porous Medium
AbstractIn the present approach, a two dimensional steady free convection flow of heat and mass transfer from a vertical surface in porous media with viscous dissipation has been analyzed numerically considering Soret and Dufour effects. The governing non linear partial differential equations have been transformed by a similar transformation in to a system of ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically by using implicit finite difference scheme. The dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are displayed graphically showing the effects for the different values of the Lewis number, soret number and viscous dissipation parameter
AN EFFICIENT METHOD-LEVEL CODE CLONE DETECTION SCHEME THROUGH TEXTUAL ANALYSIS USING METRICS
ABSTRACT Code cloning or the act of copying code fragments and making minor, non-functional alterations, is a well known problem for evolving software systems which leads to duplicated code fragments known as code clones. A Clone Detection approach is to find out the reused fragment of code in any application to maintain different types of clones that are being identified by the clone detection techniques. Ever since clone detection evolved, it has been providing better results by reducing the complexity. A different clone detection tool makes the detection process easier and produces efficient results. In many existing systems, main focus is on line by line detection or token based detection to find out the clones in the system. So, it makes the system to take long time to process the entire source code. If the fragment of code is not an exact copy but the functionalities make it similar to each other, then existing system doesn't figure out that type of clones in it. This paper proposes combination of textual and metric analysis of a source code for the detection of all types of clones in a given set of fragment of java source code. Various semantics have been formulated and their values are used during the detection process. This metrics with textual analysis provides less complexity in finding the clones and giving accurate results
Role of water in Protein Aggregation and Amyloid Polymorphism
A variety of neurodegenerative diseases are associated with the formation of
amyloid plaques. Our incomplete understanding of this process underscores the
need to decipher the principles governing protein aggregation. Most
experimental and simulation studies have been interpreted largely from the
perspective of proteins: the role of solvent has been relatively overlooked.
In this Account, we provide a perspective on how interactions with water
affect folding landscapes of A monomers, A oligomer
formation, and protofilament formation in a Sup35 peptide. Simulations show
that the formation of aggregation-prone structures (N) similar to the
structure in the fibril requires overcoming high desolvation barrier. The
mechanism of protofilament formation in a polar Sup35 peptide fragment
illustrates that water dramatically slows down self-assembly. Release of water
trapped in the pores as water wires creates protofilament with a dry interface.
Similarly, one of the main driving force for addition of a solvated monomer to
a preformed fibril is the entropy gain of released water.
We conclude by postulating that two-step model for protein crystallization
must also hold for higher order amyloid structure formation starting from
N. Multiple N structures with varying water content results in a number
of distinct water-laden polymorphic structures. In predominantly hydrophobic
sequences, water accelerates fibril formation. In contrast, water-stabilized
metastable intermediates dramatically slow down fibril growth rates in
hydrophilic sequences.Comment: 27 pages, 4 figures; Accounts of Chemical Research, 201
Synthesis of some novel isoxazolyl pyrimido[4,5-<i style="">d</i>][1,3]-thiazol-7-ones, isoxazolyl-2-(4-oxo-4<i style="">H</i>-1,3-benzothiazin-2-yl)acetamides and isoxazolyl thiazolidinones from isoxazolyl cyanoacetamide synthon
