Parquet theory of finite temperature boson systems
(1992)
In this dissertation, we use the parquet summation for the two-body vertex as the framework for a perturbation theory of finite-temperature homogeneous boson systems. Our present formalism is a first step toward a full ...
America's back door : indirect international immigration via Mexico to the United States from 1875 to 1940
(1992)
Mexico provided many opportunities for indirect international immigration to the United States between the years 1876 and 1940. The immigrants traveled from their countries of birth, for example China, Japan, Eastern Europe, ...
Immunotoxic effects of polychlorinated diphenyl ethers, biphenyls and dibenzofurans : quantitative structure-activity relationships and role of the Ah receptor
(1992)
The role of the aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor in mediating the immunotoxic effects of several polychlorinated diphenyl ethers (PCDEs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and alkyl-substituted polychlorinated dibenzofurans ...
The role of organic matter alteration in sediment diagenesis : the Delaware Mountain Group of west Texas and southeast New Mexico
(1992)
Aqueous species derived from first-order degradative reaction of organic matter can modify Eh and pH conditions in the burial environment and regulate solubility characteristics of other aqueous species and minerals in the ...
Failure prediction of beryllium cross-rolled sheets by incorporating closure of cubic polynomial tensor
(1992)
Thin beryllium sheets are known to fail catastrophically when deformed by out-of-plane loadings. Primary objective of this study is to approach the overall problem of failure prediction from a macroscopic point of view. ...
In vitro studies of coronary venular endothelial cells during growth and stress
(1992)
An endothelial cell line obtained from bovine coronary venules (CVEC) was used to study the in vitro effects of pathophysiologic modulators such as second messengers, receptor-mediated agonists, and stress. One series of ...
In situ studies of adsorption of inorganic anions on metallic electrodes
(1992)
The adsorption of HSO4-, Cl- and I- from aqueous solutions was examined using radiotracer, FTIR spectroscopy and ellipsometry techniques. Adsorption dependence was measured as a function of time, concentration and potential. ...
Molecular systematics of the tree bats (genus L̲a̲s̲i̲u̲r̲u̲s̲)
(1992)
Phylogenetic relationships among some members of the bat genus Lasiurus were investigated using a restriction enzyme analysis of the ribosomal genes of the mitochondrial molecule. A new restriction site mapping strategy ...
Cultural conflicts in urban patterns : the case of the Muslim city
(1992)
This study attempts to identify the religious norms that governed and continue to govern the development of spatial form in Muslim cities, as a precept to formulating, anew. Islamic urban principles and determining their ...
HB2 : a hyperbase management system for open, distributed hypermedia system architectures
(1992)
The complexities of providing data management support for advanced hypermedia computing environments make it clear that effectiveness requires more than simple extensions to existing database technology. This dissertation ...
