Let f : M → M be a diffeomorphism of two dimensional manifold M. If f has a homoclinic tangency associated to a hyperbolic periodic point p then there is a diffeomorphism g : M → M with C¹ close to f such that g is not continuum-wise expansive.

Numerical and wind tunnel simulations of pollutant dispersion around rectangular obstacles with five aspect ratios have been conducted in order to identify the effects of flow patterns induced by buildings on plume dispersion in the near wake of buildings. An emission from a low source located upwind of obstacles was used in this simulation. The local flow patterns and concentrations around a cubical obstacle were initially investigated using three RANS turbulence models, (the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$, Shear Stress Transport (SST), Reynolds-Stress RSM turbulence model) and also using Large-eddy simulation (LES). The computed concentrations were compared with those measured in the wind tunnel. Among the three turbulence models, the SST model offered the best performance and thus was used in further investigations. The results show, for normal aspect ratios of width to height, that concentrations in the near wake are appreciably affected because of plume capture by the horseshoe vortex and convection by the vertical vortex pairs. These effects are less important for high aspect ratios. Vertical vortex pairs present a strong ability to exchange mass vertically and acts efficiently to reduce ground-level concentrations in the near wake.

Background: Most cases of facial asymmetry involve yaw deformity, and determination of the yaw correction level is very difficult. Methods: We use three-dimensional soft tissue simulation to determine the yaw correction level. This three-dimensional simulation is based on the addition of cephalometric prediction to gradual yaw correction. Optimal yaw correction is determined visually, and an intermediate splint is fabricated with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing. Application of positioning devices and the performance of horseshoe osteotomy are advisable. Results: With this procedure, accurate repositioning of jaws was confirmed and patients obtained fairly good facial contour. Conclusions: This procedure is a promising method for a widespread, predictable treatment of facial asymmetry.

A Pin-fin array is widely used to enhance the heat transfer in the internal cooling passage. The heat transfer distribution around the pin-fin is varied by the horseshoe vortex and flow separation. The difference of heat transfer coefficient induces the large thermal stress, which is one of the major reasons to break of hot components. So, it is required to enhance the heat transfer on the back side of pin-fin to solve the thermal stress problem. This study suggests the pin-fin with inclined jet hole and complex pin-fin/dimple array to enhance the heat transfer on the back side of pin-fin. The heat transfer coefficient is predicted by the numerical analysis, which is performed by CFX 14.0. The numerical results are obtained at Reynolds number, 10,000. The results show that the heat transfer on the back side of pin-fin is increased in both cases. Beside, the wake, which comes from dimple and jet, helps to develop the horseshoe vortex and increase the heat transfer on the next row pin-fin.

The periodic changes of testis and \ulcorner션 epididymidis in Korean hibernating bats, the oriental discoloured bats (Vesportilio superans Thomas) and the Korean greater horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum korak Kuroda) were studied in order to clarify the possibility of correlation between their histological findings and one of physiological facets, hibernation, and the results obtained were as follows: 1. The spermatogenic function of the oriental discoloured bats obtained in July and August was depressed although the spermatocytes showed a considerable cell proliferation. Few mature sperms were observed in the seminiferous tubules of the bat obtained in August. 2. The spermatogenic function of the Korean greater horeshoe bats obtained in September was not remalkable but a considerable number of sperms were stored in the excretory ducts which were characterized by existence of para-tubular spaces in the ductus epididymidis. 3. The spermatogenic epithelia of the Korean greater horseshoe bats obtained in December showed histologically atrophied figures. However, a vast number of sperm remained in extremely expaned luminae of the ductuc epididymidis which epithelial cells were maintained rectangular in shape. 4. These results suggest that there are periodic changes of the spermatogenic epithelia and the excretory ducts, and that those histological changes are closely related to their wintering.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the internal nozzle flow and cavitation characteristics numerically in both circular and elliptical nozzles. The program FLUENT 6.2 was used to perform the numerical simulation of the cavitating flow in the nozzles. A comparison was made between the cavitation shapes predicted numerically and those found experimentally in order to validate the numerical solution. This study showed that the cavitation in the circular nozzle had a cylindrical shape that was symmetrical with the nozzle axis. However, the cavitation in the elliptical nozzles had a horseshoe-like shape. In addition, the radial velocity distribution varied between the major and the minor axis planes when the working fluid was flowing into the inlet.

Horseshoe vortices generated around the juncture between the ship and her appendages often lower a performance of the ship by increasing the appendage drag and making a non-uniform wake on the propeller plane. This paper investigates numerically how the fillet around the juncture of the leading edge influences the juncture flow and the appendage drag. Computation has been made by solving Navier-Stokes equations with MAC method and the flows are at the Reynolds number of 5,000. Five fillets with different height-breath ratios and curvatures are chosen as test models to find out the effects of the shape of fillets on the appendage drag and wake. Computational results show that fillets with a smaller height-breath ratio and/or with a concave curvature has smaller appendage drag and more uniform wake.

Background: Hibernating bats exhibit ubiquitous winter activity in temperate zones, but there is considerable between- and within-species variety in their intensity and purpose. Bats may fly during winter for sustenance or travel to other hibernacula. This study compared inter-regional variation in the winter activity of the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum). We predicted that weather and hibernacula-environmental conditions would influence winter activity patterns. Results: Winter activity patterns differed between regions. In the Anseong area, we confirmed movement inside the hibernaculum, but in Hampyeong, we observed movement both inside and between hibernacula. The two regions differ by $4^{\circ}C$ in average winter temperatures. Anseong experiences 22 days during which average daily temperatures exceeded $5^{\circ}C$, whereas Hampyeong experienced 50 such days. During the hibernating period, bat body weight decreased by approximately 17-20% in both regions. Conclusions: Ambient temperatures and winter-roost environments appear to be behind regional differences in hibernating bat activity. As winter temperatures in Korea do not favor insect activity, feeding probability is low for bats. However, bats may need to access water. At Anseong, underground water flows inside the hibernaculum when the reservoir outside is frozen. At Hampyeong, the hibernaculum does not contain a water source, but the reservoir outside does not freeze during winter. In conclusion, water-source location is the most likely explanation for regional variation in the winter activity of hibernating bats.

In this paper, we introduce existing Bayesian methods for high-dimensional sparse regression models and compare their performance in various simulation scenarios. Especially, we focus on the variational Bayes approach proposed by Ray and Szabó (2021), which enables scalable and accurate Bayesian inference. Based on simulated data sets from sparse high-dimensional linear regression models, we compare the variational Bayes approach with other Bayesian and frequentist methods. To check the practical performance of the variational Bayes in logistic regression models, a real data analysis is conducted using leukemia data set.
