(2021-05-03)Signature plays an important role in geometry and topology. In the space with singularity, Goresky and MacPherson extend the signatures to oriented pseudomanifolds with only even codimensional stratums by using generalized ...
-
(2012-02-14)With new radioactive isotope accelerators coming online in the next decade, the problem of extracting reliable nuclear structure information from reactions with unstable nuclei deserves considerable attention. A method has ...
-
(2015-01-22)The importance of organoboron compounds in chemical synthesis is apparent from the Nobel Prizes awarded to Herbert C. Brown (1979) and Akira Suzuki (2010) for their contribution to the development of new synthetic methodologies ...
-
(2017-08-16)Due to the utility of organoboron reagents in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other industrially relevant compounds, the transition metal-catalyzed C-H borylation of organic molecules has become a very popular area ...
-
(2012-11-20)Methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins MCPs can bind one or more receptor- specific ligands. In the case of the Tar MCP of Escherichia coli (TarEc), a primary attractant ligand is aspartate. Its binding to the periplasmic ...
-
(2013-08-01)Radiation induced bystander effects have changed our understanding of the biological effects of ionizing radiations. The original assumption was that biological effects require direct damage to DNA. The bystander effect ...
-
(2019-05-28)Teacher-student relationships lie at the heart of the learning process. The culture of care created by positive teacher-student rapport has been associated with student outcomes, suggesting that putting relationship and ...
-
(2009-06-02)Over the years, the Burgess group has been focusing on the preparation and testing of small molecules that mimic protein secondary structures for protein-protein interactions. The most successful compounds made are C10 ...
-
(2018-08-16)Information Centric Networks (ICN) is an infrastructure that focuses on information retrieval rather than end to end connections. ICN uses 2 features - name based routing and in-network caching in order to attain better ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)Excavations conducted in A.D. 1894 and 1895 by French archaeologist Jean- Jacques de Morgan at the funerary complex of the ancient Egyptian Middle Kingdom pharaoh Senwosret III on the plain of Dahshur revealed some ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)The objective of my research is to create a visualization of a place based on personal experiences. My research addresses this issue through a case study: the visualization of a womenÂs political prison located in Punta ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Sedimentary basins can contain close to 20% by volume pore fluids that are commonly classified as brines. These fluids can become undersaturated with respect to calcite as a result of processes such as migration, dispersive ...
-
(2012-02-14)The effect of ionic strength (I), pCO2, and temperature on the reaction kinetics of calcite was investigated in magnesium-free, phosphate-free, low calcium (mCa^2 ≈ 0.01 – 0.02 molal) simple KCl and NaCl solutions from ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Studies in other species indicate high protein diets increase urinary calcium (Ca) excretion and may lead to negative calcium balance and reduced bone density. As overfeeding of protein is commonplace in the horse ...
-
(2017-06-05)The calcium carbonate saturation state is decreasing globally in the surface waters due to the increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and dissolved carbon dioxide in the oceans. Recent evidence suggests that the ...
-
(2014-08-06)Clays have been used for centuries as ‘ancient medicine’ for their therapeutic benefits. One particular clay, calcium montmorillonite, has historically been used as an anti-caking agent in animal feeds, but has also ...
-
(2010-10-12)The hypothalamus is an integral part of the brain's regulation of mammalian physiology and behavior. Among many functions, this regulatory center activates the sympathetic nervous system, maintains appropriate body ...
-
(2012-02-14)It has been a practice to use seawater for preparing acid in offshore operations where fresh water is relatively expensive or logistically impossible to use. However, hydrochloric acid will release calcium ion into solution, ...
-
(2010-01-14)Coastal bridges are exposed to severe wave, current and wind forces during a hurricane. Most coastal bridges are not designed to resist wave loads in such extreme situations, and there are no existing analytical methods ...
-
(2014-12-15)In the past few decades, many researchers have studied evaporation from soil columns in the presence of a water table. Several water retention functions have been developed to describe the water flow behavior in the field ...
