    Description: Neuronal responses in the caudomedial neostriatum (NCM) of adult zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata) decreased upon repeated, unreinforced presentations of conspecific song, calls, or other complex sounds. This "stimulus-specific habituation" is a form of learning, and its spontaneous loss, a form of "forgetting." Spontaneous forgetting occurred only at narrowly defined times (2 to 3, 6 to 7, 14 to 15, 17 to 18.5, 46 to 48, or 85 to 89 hours after first exposure to a stimulus), determined by stimulus class, number of presentations, and interval between presentations. The first five forgetting times coincided with periods when gene expression and protein synthesis in NCM were required for maintenance of the longer lasting (85 to 89 hours) habituation. The number of successive episodes of gene expression induced by a stimulus, but occurring long after stimulus presentation, appears to determine the quantal duration of auditory memories.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chew, S J -- Vicario, D S -- Nottebohm, F -- MH18343/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH40900/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 13;274(5294):1909-14.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Animal Behavior, Rockefeller University, 1230 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8943204" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Notes: In many popular solution algorithms for the incompressible Navier-Stoke equations the coupling between the momentum equations is neglected when the linearized momentum equations are solved to update the velocities. This is known to lead to poor convergence in highly swirling flows where coupling between the radial and tangential momentum equations is strong. Here we propose a coupled solution algorithm in which the linearized momentum and continuity equations are solved simultaneously. Comparisons between the new method and the well-known SIMPLEC method are presented.

    Notes: A computer program has been developed to predict laminar source-sink flow in a rotating cylindrical cavity. Although the program is based on a standard finite difference technique for recirculating flow, it incorporates two novel features. Step changes in grid size are employed to obtain sufficient resolution in the boundary layers and special treatment is given to the solution of the pressure correction equations, in the ‘SIMPLE’ algorithm, in order to improve the convergence properties of the method. Results are presented both for the flow in an infinite rotating cylindrical annulus and a finite rotating cylindrical cavity, with the inner cylindrical surface acting as a uniform source and the outer cylinder as a sink. These show good agreement with existing analytical solutions and illustrate some of the problems associated with the computation of rapidly rotating flows.
