description: A proof of concept is provided by computational fluid dynamic simulations of a new recirculating type casing treatment. This treatment aims at extending the stable operating range of highly loaded axial compressors, so to improve the safety of sorties of high-speed, high-performance aircraft powered by high specific thrust engines. This casing treatment, featuring an axisymmetric recirculation channel, is evaluated on the NASA rotor 37 test case by steady and unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) simulations, using the realizable k-ε model. Flow blockage at the recirculation channel outlet was mitigated by chamfering the exit of the recirculation channel inner wall. The channel axial location from the rotor blade tip leading edge was optimized parametrically over the range −4.6% to 47.6% of the rotor tip axial chord cz. Locating the channel at 18.2% cz provided the best stall margin gain of approximately 5.5% compared to the untreated rotor. No rotor adiabatic efficiency was lost by the application of this casing treatment. The investigation into the flow structure with the recirculating channel gave a good insight into how the new casing treatment generates this benefit. The combination of stall margin gain at no rotor adiabatic efficiency loss makes this design attractive for applications to high-speed gas turbine engines.
Process of adaptation: Prose to stage as applied to Stephen Crane's "Maggie: Girl of the Streets"
Creators: name: Cree, Marcia Ann
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1996

description: Adaptation of literature to the stage has proven to be a steady and popular form of writing. Stephen Crane's novella, Maggie: Girl of the Streets, was adapted to the stage as a musical during my Master's program in Theater. This thesis intends to instruct other writers on the eight step process of adaptation; this process is prior to the actual writing of the play. This preliminary process is to guide other writers who would like to adapt material to the stage. The eight step process is explained and shown as applied to the adaptation experience of Maggie. This thesis discusses the need for adaptations; the popularity and feasibility; the eight steps; and the second draft of the musical adaptation of Maggie. It is suggested that the novella by Crane and the musical adaptation be read prior to the reading of this thesis.

Acoustic breakout from fiberglass ducts
Creators: name: Degner, Keith M
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1996

description: Acoustical breakout is the transmission of sound through the walls of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning ducts. Equations for predicting the breakout from rectangular, circular, and oval sheet metal ducts have been published by the American Society of Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE); Recent advances in manufacturing techniques have led to the development of fiberglass lined sheet metal ducts, and ducts made from fiberglass ductboard. The equations presented by ASHRAE do not accurately predict the transmission loss from fiberglass ducts; This project involved testing of rectangular and circular sheet metal, lined fiberglass, and fiberboard ducts. The breakout transmission loss was determined experimentally. Regression equations based on the empirical data were derived for each of the duct categories tested. Included are the equations to determine the ring frequency of circular ducts, and the transition frequency for each region of breakout transmission loss presented.

description: Wissenschaftspropädeutik gehört laut KMK (1972/2021) neben vertiefter Allgemeinbildung und allgemeiner Studierfähigkeit zu den Zieldimensionen der gymnasialen Oberstufe. Die Ausgestaltung dieser Zieldimension ist dabei die vorrangige Aufgabe der Fächer Deutsch, der Fremdsprachen und Mathematik. Dabei soll der Unterricht in der gymnasialen Oberstufe „exemplarisch in wissenschaftliche Fragstellungen, Kategorien und Methoden“ (KMK, 1972/2021, S. 5) einführen. Dementsprechend kann Wissenschaftspropädeutik als ein Lernangebot – im Sinne eines „Vor-Unterrichts“ zum wissenschaftlichen Denken und Arbeiten – verstanden werden. Die Literatur liefert bisher wenig konkrete Ansatzpunkte, wie der Mathematikunterricht der gymnasialen Oberstufe bezüglich dieser Zieldimension gestaltet werden kann. Zwar gibt es Vorschläge zur Ausgestaltung besonderer Organisationsformen, wie z. B. Facharbeiten (Krause, 2014) oder W-Seminare (Frank, 2020), aber der reguläre Mathematikunterricht bleibt bei diesen Überlegungen weitestgehend unberücksichtigt. Da Lehrkräfte den Unterricht gestalten, ist es in diesem Kontext relevant zu untersuchen, ob und wie Lehrkräfte bei der Unterrichtsgestaltung Wissenschaftspropädeutik als Zieldimension einbeziehen. Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich daher mit der Frage, was Mathematiklehrkräfte unter Wissenschaftspropädeutik verstehen und wie aus ihrer Sicht diese Zieldimension im Unterricht umsetzbar ist.
Logical rings in the mutual exclusion problem of distributed memory systems
Creators: name: Dell, John Evan
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1996

description: In this thesis, we investigate distributed mutual exclusion algorithms and delineate the features of a new distributed mutual exclusion algorithm. The basis of the algorithm is the logical ring structure employed in token-based mutual exclusion algorithms. Specifically, there exists dynamic properties of the logical ring that, given certain restrictions regarding message traffic flow, passively give useful information about the location of the token. Effectively, the algorithm demonstrates a type of "intelligent routing" that identifies useful shortcuts to in the routing of the token. The result is a reduction in the total number of messages exchanged prior to the execution of the critical section as compared to the algorithm proposed by Fu and Tzeng (7). Furthermore, the algorithm allows for an increased degree of fairness in a lightly loaded system than that allowed by Fu and Tzeng's algorithm.

description: Egg freezing has evolved over the last decades, becoming an accepted and recognized technique for fertility preservation. This technique has various medical and non-medical indications and besides this, is becoming an important step in overcoming age-related declines in fertility. Nonetheless, since it remains inadequately understood by the general public and medical professionals, raising its awareness is of vital importance. There are numerous factors that influence the technique’s success, particularly the number of matured eggs retrieved and the woman’s age, which affects the quantity and quality of oocytes. Women were prompted to more seriously contemplate social egg freezing throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, given that social isolation complicated their search for an ideal male partner and allowed for more time to consider and research this topic.

description: Full-house immunofluorescence pattern is most commonly a presentation of Lupus Nephritis. In the absence of characteristic serologic markers, determines a rare diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. A fourteen-year-old female adolescent with sickle cell disease presented with nephrotic syndrome, pneumonia, empyema and arterial hypertension. The histopathology examination of kidney biopsy revealed a proliferative glomerulonephritis with a full-house pattern. Autoantibodies were negative, no complement consumption was detected and direct Coombs’ test was unremarkable. Other possible etiologies were ruled out. Remission was achieved with high dose corticosteroids and mycophenolate mofetil. All other Systemic Lupus Erythematosus clinical and laboratory criteria remained negative during the follow-up. This case report aims to contribute to the awareness of a rare clinical entity, emphasizing the necessity of a correct treatment and a regular long-term follow-up.

Readdressing Chloramphenicol: Data From a Pediatric Tertiary Care Center

Year: 2022

description: Introduction and Objectives: The use of chloramphenicol in developing countries is widely supported by the World Health Organization to treat bacterial infections, especially those caused by gram-negative bacteria. Wealthier regions favor other antibiotics, since there are concerns regarding chloramphenicol’s adverse effects, such as aplastic anemia. Nevertheless, the rise of multidrug resistant-bacteria has brought a growing interest on chloramphenicol as a new strategy to fight antimicrobial resistance, since the recent reports of its toxicity are very uncommon. This retrospective study intends to characterize the use of chloramphenicol in a tertiary care hospital in Brazil and report any adverse reactions. Methods: Retrospective analysis of clinical records of pediatric patients admitted to the Pediatric Department of Instituto de Medicina Integral Professor Fernando Figueira, between May 2017 and April 2018, and treated with chloramphenicol. Results: One hundred and twenty-four patients were included, with a median age of 4.5 years (one month-14 years) and male predominance (54%). Chloramphenicol was mostly used to treat respiratory infections (85%), skin and soft tissue infections (6%), or diseases of ear, nose and throat (6%). It was the first-choice antibiotic in 42% of the patients, who presented a shorter length of stay (7.4 versus 11.1 days, p=0,02). Parenteral treatment was the choice for 91% of patients, for an average of 5.3 days. No adverse reactions were reported, either hematologic or another, and no late side effects were reported on the 13 patients evaluated after one year after hospital discharge. Conclusion: No early or late side effects to the use of chloramphenicol were reported in this study. The alarming spread of antimicrobial resistance, especially in nosocomial agents, prompts the rational use of older antibiotics, such as chloramphenicol, particularly in severe infections. Chloramphenicol appears to be an effective antibiotic when used in specific situations. With the widely known potentially severe adverse side effects rarely being described in centers which have the adequate experience for routine usage, and the ongoing increase in antimicrobial resistance to currently available antibiotics, the interest in using chloramphenicol may grow in the future.

description: Significant fraction of matter in supercritical (or super-Eddington) accretion flow is blown away by radiation force, thus forming outflows, however, the properties of such radiation-driven outflows have been poorly understood. We have performed global two-dimensional radiaion-magnetohydrodynamic simulations of supercritical accretion flow onto a black hole with 10 or 10^8 solar masses in a large simulation box of 514 r_S x 514 r_S (with r_S being the Schwarzschild radius). We confirm that uncollimated outflows with velocities of 10 percents of the speed of light emerge from the innermost part of the accretion flow over wide angles of 10 - 50 degree from the disk rotation axis. Importantly, the outflows exhibit clumpy structure above heights of ~ 250 r_S. The typical size of the clumps is ~ 10 r_S, which corresponds to one optical depth, and their shapes are slightly elongated along the outflow direction. Since clumps start to form in the layer above which (upward) radiation force overcomes (downward) gravity force, Rayleigh-Taylor instability seems to be of primary cause. In addition, a radiation hydrodynamic instability, which arises when radiation funnels through radiation-pressure supported atmosphere, may also help forming clumps of one optical depth. Magnetic photon bubble instability seems not to be essential, since similar clumpy outflow structure is obtained in non-magnetic radiation-hydrodynamic simulations. Since the spatial covering factor of the clumps is estimated to be ~ 0.3 and since they are marginally optically thick, they will explain at least some of rapid light variations of active galactic nuclei. We further discuss a possibility of producing broad-line clouds by the clumpy outflow.

A Resilience-Oriented Extra-Terrestrial Habitat Design Process

Subjects: Aerospace engineering not elsewhere classified

description: In the wake of the first Artemis launch, humanity is more focused on space exploration and travel than it has been in the half a century since the Space Race. This time, it’s not enough just to touch down on the Moon; we want to build sustainable homes on the Moon and on Mars. The goal of long-term extra-terrestrial habitation begs the question: how do we design habitats that can protect human life so far from Earth?
 The Resilient Extra-Terrestrial Habitat Institute (RETHi) has been operating for four years now building a foundation of ideologies and tools to help answer that question. The institute has developed a control-theoretic approach to habitat resilience based on a state-trigger analysis, a database of potential hazards to a habitat, metrics for resilience quantification, and simulation platforms for design verification.
 The combination of these developments allows for the proposition of a resilience-oriented habitat design process. The process takes the shape of a typical systems vee and is tailored to the needs of an extra-terrestrial habitat and the tools available through RETHi. The process proposes a way to build resilience into the requirements development and design verification of extra-terrestrial habitats at three system levels. The result of this study is a discussion on how we design, evaluate, and select safety mechanisms for extra-terrestrial habitats.
 Safety mechanisms are selected by simulating the habitat’s response to a disruption when equipped with one safety mechanism at a time and quantifying the habitat’s resilience. Then, the resilience of the habitats with different mechanisms are compared, illuminating the best option. Simulations for each mechanism are performed under a variety of circumstances, changing the time of day and intensity of the disruption as well as the type of repair agent carrying out the mechanism to capture the habitat’s behavior as totally as possible.
 This analysis shows how different safety mechanisms performances compare and provides a basis for making design decisions.
Effect of a recirculating type casing treatment on a highly loaded axial compressor rotor

description: The tip leakage flow over the blades of an axial compressor rotor adversely affects the axial rotor efficiency and can determine the onset of tip leakage stall. The performance of a new casing treatment concept in the shape of an axisymmetric recirculation channel is explored by steady Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) realizable k-ε modelling on the NASA Rotor 37 test case. The modelling exposed a number of attractive features. The casing treatment increased the stall margin at no penalty to the rotor isentropic efficiency over the rotor operating line. A recirculation in the casing channel self-activated and self-adjusted with the rotor loading to provide more passive flow control at higher rotor loading conditions. The nozzle-shaped recirculation channel outflow opposed the tip leakage jet, re-located the casing surface flow interface further downstream, and reduced the rotor blade tip incidence angle. This combination of features makes the new casing treatment particularly attractive for applications to high thrust-to-weight ratio engines, typical of high-performance jet aircraft.

description: It has been shown that the comparative static results of two-period behavior-based pricing models hold in laboratory experiments, while point predictions do not. This study aims to check whether these findings replicate and to evaluate why observed prices deviate from point predictions. We report observed prices in conformity with point predictions through: (1.) a uniform pricing benchmark, (2.) a replication of a behavior-based pricing experiment, and (3.) a follow-up experiment in which we consider the second period disjointed from the first period. By disjoining the two periods, we show that reference dependence toward first-period prices shifts the second-period pricing behavior of participants upwards. In a post hoc analysis, we show that considering consumers' myopic instead of strategic explains a downward shift in first-period prices and rationalizes prior experimental findings. Volatile price levels affect price-based welfare measures – such as seller profits and total customer costs. We show that transport costs are a robust welfare measure that alleviates the impact of distorted prices. Ultimately, our findings are relevant for the design and assessment of multi-period pricing experiments.

description: The single-spin asymmetry of unpolarized leptons scattering deep-inelastically off transversely polarized nucleons is discussed. This observable is generated by a two-photon exchange between lepton and nucleon. In a partonic description of the asymmetry the non-perturbative part is given in terms of multiparton correlations: quark-gluon correlation functions and quark-photon correlation functions. Recently, a model for quark-gluon correlation functions was presented where these objects were expressed through non-valence light cone wave functions. Using this model, estimates for the single-spin asymmetries for a proton and a neutron are presented.

Investigation of regional flow patterns in the Ash Meadows groundwater basin of Southern Nevada using uranium isotope ratios

description: Uranium concentrations and {dollar}\rm\sp{234}U/\sp{238}U{dollar} isotope ratios were determined for over 100 springs, wells and surface waters in areas on and surrounding the historical nuclear weapons testing range in southern Nevada, the Nevada Test Site (NTS). Uranium concentrations were less than 2 {dollar}\mu{dollar}g/liter in the Spring Mountains, where ground water enters the system, and between 2.5 and 5 {dollar}\mu{dollar}g/liter in waters discharging from the major springs at Ash Meadows, Nevada and the Death Valley-Furnace Creek area of southeastern California. Slightly higher levels of dissolved uranium (6-15 {dollar}\mu{dollar}g/liter) were associated with the weathering of susceptible rocks and the concentration of ground water by evaporation. The average concentration of uranium in ground water was 3.03 {dollar}\mu{dollar}g/liter (s.d. 2.1) and the highest measurement recorded was 69 {dollar}\pm{dollar} 5.8 {dollar}\mu{dollar}g/liter in water collected from Lower Pahranagat Lake in Lincoln County, Nevada. Uranium isotope ratios, ({dollar}\rm\sp{234}U/\sp{238}U{dollar}), ranged from close to one at NTS Well UE-6E (1.04 {dollar}\pm{dollar} 0.21) to more than seven at NTS Well J-13 (7.58 {dollar}\pm{dollar} 0.24). Isotope mixing diagrams suggest that about 70 percent of the water discharging from the regional springs at Ash Meadows in the southern Amargosa Desert may come from the nearby Spring Mountains, with the remainder possibly coming from the Hiko-Pahranagat region, northeast of the NTS. This is in agreement with earlier findings. Spring discharge in southern Death Valley is also related to regional ground water movement. Using data collected in this study, it is estimated that 80 percent of the water in southern Death Valley is a result of underflow from the Ash Meadows region to the east, while as much as 20 percent may originate from other areas.

A novel, remote cleaning, electromagnetic air filter
Creators: name: Gu, Zhongyi
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas

description: When the enamel-like top layer of the desert soil is compromised, natural and man-made forces result in airborne dust particulates. This is of specific concern in plutonium contaminated soil excavation. Conventional water spraying techniques are effective in preventing large airborne dust particles but are ineffective for dust particles on the order of a few micrometers in diameter and smaller. One means of extracting these fine radio nuclide particulates from the air is with a quasi-electrostatic air filter which charges, traps, transports, and collects them with the aid of electrostatic and quasi-electrostatic fields. Human intervention is virtually eliminated. The air filter is divided into four sections: the charging region, the electrostatic trapping region, the transport region, and the collection region. This work focuses on the first three regions of the air filter. The charging region employs a photo-ionization mechanism to ionize the sand particles just below the breakdown of air. Large electrostatic fields have been tailored to extract the particles from the charging region and direct them into the transport region. The dynamic fields in this region guide the particulate to a collection region. By combining a finite element method with an analytical theory to characterize the fields in the air filter, single particle dynamics in the charging, electrostatic and the transport regions of the air filter are examined. Design constraints and limitations are studied. Air flow velocities and air viscosity contributions are incorporated into the simulation. Normalized expressions allow for a large host of upscale or downscale designs. The electrostatic and quasi-electrostatic forces always counteract the usually dominant viscous forces of air.
Bioinspired neuromorphic motion control for robots and animated characters
Creators: name: Polykretis, Ioannis
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: In nature, living organisms exhibit a remarkable abundance of diverse motion skills. Visualizing such motion behaviors in animation and replicating them with robots has been a long-standing goal for artificial agents. Even when animated characters or robots can match the performance of biological agents, they require extensive training, which is computationally demanding. This is in stark contrast to the effortless emergence of motion in biological agents. While the mechanisms that evolution has tuned over millennia to drive biological motion are now well characterized, they are still overlooked by control algorithms. In this thesis, we aim to mitigate the required computational burden by translating the architectures of evolutionarily-trained neuronal networks that drive motion generation into algorithms for realistic character animation and effective robot control. In the first part of this thesis, we demonstrate how inspiration from biological agents can result in efficient and realistic motion generation. We first present a set of biologically plausible controllers that draw inspiration from networks of spiking neurons (SNN) found in insects and fishes to control periodic motions. We use our SNN controllers to drive the locomotion of a hexapod and the crawling and swimming behaviors of an amphibious salamander while incorporating closed-loop control for speed adaptation and dynamic obstacle avoidance. Then, we present an SNN that draws from the topology of the human oculomotor system and drives eye movements. We then use the controller for the input-driven tracking of a visual target with a robotic head comprising two eyes and a neck to demonstrate its effective and realistic control. In the second part of the thesis, we aim to minimize the need for expert neuroscientific knowledge to design SNN controllers that drive motions with desired dynamics. We introduce a framework based on inverse generative modeling to automatically capture joint dynamics from motion sequence samples. Our framework uses an abstract genetic code for the SNN controller architectures and an evolutionary algorithm that trains the SNNs to capture the motion dynamics. The captured motion dynamics can be transferred to previously unknown motion sequences and allow for interactive modification of the emergent behaviors. The biological plausibility of our methods allows for their deployment on dedicated neuromorphic hardware, which we demonstrate where possible to provide resource efficiency in addition to generating effective and realistic behavior. Our work positions biologically inspired neuromorphic methods as a potential complement to established learning methods for replicating challenging, biologically realistic behaviors with animated characters and robots.

description: About seventy percent of intermediate-age star clusters in the Large Magellanic Clouds have been confirmed to have broad main sequence, multiple or extended turn-offs and dual red giant clumps. The observed result seems against the classical idea that such clusters are simple stellar populations. Although many models have been used for explaining the results via factors such as prolonged star formation history, metallicity spread, differential redenning, selection effect, observational uncertainty, stellar rotation, and binary interaction, the reason for the special color-magnitude diagrams is still uncertain. We revisit this question via the combination of stellar rotation and binary effects. As a result, it shows "golf club" color-magnitude diagrams with broad or multiple turn-offs, dual red clump, blue stragglers, red stragglers, and extended main sequences. Because both binaries and massive rotators are common, our result suggests that most color-magnitude diagrams including extended turn-off or multiple turn-offs can be explained using simple stellar populations including both binary and stellar rotation effects, or composite populations with two components.

description: Time-bin encoding is a robust form of optical quantum information, especially for transmission in optical fibers. To read out the information, the separation of the time bins must be larger than the detector time resolution, typically on the order of nanoseconds for photon counters. In the present work, we demonstrate a technique using a nonlinear interaction between chirped entangled time-bin photons and shaped laser pulses to perform projective measurements on arbitrary time-bin states with picosecond-scale separations. We demonstrate a tomographically-complete set of time-bin qubit projective measurements and show the fidelity of operations is sufficiently high to violate the CHSH-Bell inequality by more than 6 standard deviations.

description: Let $ρ$ be a finite-dimensional faithful representation of a semisimple algebraic group $G$. By means of a deformation argument, we show that there exists a family of Abelian varieties over a smooth and projective curve over the algebraic closure of a prime field of positive characteristic, such that its $\ell$-adic monodromy group covers $G$ and its $\ell$-adic monodromy representation contains $ρ$.

description: We present a new deterministic approach for the solution of the Boltzmann kinetic equation based on nodal discontinuous Galerkin (DG) discretizations in velocity space. In the new approach the collision operator has the form of a bilinear operator with pre-computed kernel; its evaluation requires $O(n^5)$ operations at every point of the phase space where $n$ is the number of degrees of freedom in one velocity dimension. The method is generalized to any molecular potential. Results of numerical simulations are presented for the problem of spatially homogeneous relaxation for the hard spheres potential. Comparison with the method of Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) showed excellent agreement.

Risk features and relationship between financial variables and beta: An analysis of the casino industry
Creators: name: Kim, Hyunjoon
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 1996

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the key financial variables of casino firms and their common stocks, and to examine the risk features and the diversifiability of casino stocks; The financial and stock return data for the period 1992-1994 in this study were obtained from the CD-ROM database of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and the Center for Research in Security Prices (CRSP File) of the Graduate School of Business, University of Chicago. The relationship between four financial variables (current ratio, leverage ratio, asset turnover ratio, and profit margin ratio) and the casino beta was tested by using a cross-sectional multiple regression analysis; The study found that asset turnover ratio was negatively correlated with beta (i.e., a firm with high efficiency has a low beta), but current ratio, leverage ratio, and profit margin ratio were not significantly correlated with casino betas. The study also found that 92% of the total risk of casino firms between 1992 and 1994 was due to the unsystematic risk which is determined by firm-specific factors. Therefore, the volatility of casino stocks was primarily explained by each casino's unique factors; The findings of the study suggest that the systematic risk of casino firms is related to the efficient management of casino assets. High efficiency leads to lower systematic risk and hence the value of casino firms may be enhanced.

description: This repository is associated with the manuscript "Fully automatic segmentation of glottis and vocal folds in endoscopic laryngeal high-speed videos using a deep Convolutional LSTM Network", where we used a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) approach for the first time to fully automatically segment not only the time-varying glottal area but also the vocal fold tissue directly from laryngeal HS video. The approach was developed and intensely evaluated on a dataset comprising 130 HS-sequences (13,000 HS video frames in total) obtained from healthy as well as pathologic subjects. Here, we provide the used dataset, the code along with the best performing Neural Network, and scripts to evaluate the segmentation performance. This work was supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG), LO-1413/2-2. Computational resources were provided by the High Performance Compute Cluster 'Elwetritsch' at the University of Kaiserslautern, which is part of the 'Alliance of High Performance Computing Rheinland-Pfalz' (AHRP).

description: We present a theoretical study of the impact of an electrostatic field combined with nonresonant linearly polarized laser pulses on the rotational dynamics of a thermal ensemble of linear molecules. We solve the time-dependent Schrödinger equation within the rigid rotor approximation for several rotational states. Using the carbonyl sulfide (OCS) molecule as a prototype, the mixed-field orientation of a thermal sample is analyzed in detail for experimentally accessible static field strengths and laser pulses. We demonstrate that for the characteristic field configuration used in current mixed-field orientation experiments, a significant orientation is obtained for rotational temperatures below 0.7K or using stronger dc fields.

description: Marangoni propulsion is a form of locomotion wherein an asymmetric release of surfactant by a body located at the surface of a liquid leads to its directed motion. We present in this paper a mathematical model for Marangoni propulsion in the viscous regime. We consider the case of a thin rigid circular disk placed at the surface of a viscous fluid and whose perimeter has a prescribed concentration of an insoluble surfactant, to which the rest of its surface is impenetrable. Assuming a linearized equation of state between surface tension and surfactant concentration, we derive analytically the surfactant, velocity and pressure fields in the asymptotic limit of low Capillary, Peclet and Reynolds numbers. We then exploit these results to calculate the Marangoni propulsion speed of the disk. Neglecting the stress contribution from Marangoni flows is seen to over-predict the propulsion speed by 50%.
