Based on the importance analysis with independent random variables, an ordering importance measure is proposed to evaluate the effects of variables on the uncertainty of output response first, in which not only independent random variables but also correlated ones are included, and it provides a...

<Para ID="Par1">Change in pan evaporation (E<Subscript>pan</Subscript>) has evoked general scientific interest because it involves both climatic and hydrological effects. The enhanced greenhouse effect may be the casual factor, although the mechanism still needs to be further confirmed. Based on meteorological data (Pan evaporation,...</subscript></para>

In the present study, a double-deck filament setup is proposed for the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) method and an optimization method is presented to determine its optimal geometry that is able to produce a highly uniform temperature field on the whole flute surface of...

In the present study, the fluid field in a process of fabricating diamond coated cutting tools using the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) method is investigated using the finite volume method (FVM), in which the effects of the inlet height, gas initial velocity, inlet radius and...
