MARTHARAPTOR GREENRIVERENSIS, A NEW THEROPOD DINOSAUR FROM THE LOWER CRETACEOUS OF UTAH.


Cartilaginous epiphyses in extant archosaurs and their implications for reconstructing limb function in dinosaurs.

Extinct archosaurs, including many non-avian dinosaurs, exhibit relatively simply shaped condylar regions in their appendicular bones, suggesting potentially large amounts of unpreserved epiphyseal (articular) cartilage.This "lost anatomy" is often underappreciated such that the ends of bones are typically considered to be the joint surfaces, poten

The Effects of Anthropogenic Heat Release on Urban Meteorology and Implication for Haze Pollution in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region

In this study, the Electronics effect of anthropogenic heat release (AHR) on meteorological variables and atmospheric diffusion capability and implication for haze pollution in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region in January 2013 were investigated by using Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model with an urban canopy model (UCM) and an AHR scheme.T

Thrust Prediction of an Active Flapping Foil in Waves Using CFD

A horizontally submerged passive flapping foil can generate thrust force against the wave propagation using wave energy.This renewable method has been used for the design of propulsion and maneuvering systems of ships and other floating Utensils structures.Recently, the passive flapping foils were applied to design the station-keeping system of dee
