Physically speaking, the coalescence process consists of three regimes, called the viscous, visco-inertia, and inertial coalescence regimes [1].

With the continuous improvement of test devices and methods, high-precision instruments have been employed to capture the crack coalescence process. For example, high-speed video cameras were used to study the failure process of precracked specimens and obtained the footage on the whole process from crack initiation and crack propagation to final failure [6, 7, 9-13].

Other strategies have been developed to examine the effect of emulsification process, oil and salt on the particle size distribution, creaming/sedimentation and coalescence process with respect to coalescence time [16, 17].

The light nuclei production in general might be a more complicated coalescence process, for example, coalescence of nucleons in the local rest frame of the fluid cell.

The number density N of bubbles retained upon termination of their coalescence process can be estimated using the following formula [23]:

However, in this case, the parameters do not provide any direct information about the coalescence process. The geometrical characteristics of the aggregates could probably be deduced from a systematic study of [[sigma].sub.keff] .

Above this layer there might be warm air without ice, but you must refer to atmospheric data or a weather briefer to be certain--the droplets might have formed only in a collision and coalescence process and there might not be a warm layer of safety.
Icing weather basics: basics--yes. Same ol' stuff--no. Safely flying in winter's ice requires a lot more than knowing rime vs. clear, and trace vs. moderate. Here's some real depth you can use
The Si nuclei with the intermediate state of merging were pointed out by arrows in Figure 3(c), which means that the coalescence process of the nuclei was progressively undergoing with the growth of the nuclei.
