The swim-and-sink behaviour of copepods: a revisit to mechanical power requirement and a new hypothesis on function

Many copepods display a swim-and-sink behaviour, which is not energetically efficient but probably aids in perceiving and capturing diatom chains.Here, computational fluid dynamics was employed to calculate the mechanical power required by a negatively buoyant, self-propelled copepod in swim-and-sink versus hovering.The results Garlic Grater show t

Performance estimation for concretes made with recycled aggregates of construction and demolition waste of some Brazilian cities

The aim of this paper is to verify the influence of composition variability of recycled aggregates (RA) of construction and demolition wastes (CDW) on the performance of concretes.Performance was evaluated building mathematical models for compressive strength, modulus of elasticity and drying shrinkage.To obtain such models, an Fan Shop - NFL - Jer
