Urban Residents' Perceptions About The City of Austin's Wildlands
(2011-10-21)
Increasing resettlement in and around Austin, decrease in water discharge rates
and loss of endangered species habitat led to the creation of the City of Austin wildlands.
The study consisted of a mail survey of 1,000 ...
Energy Restriction Effects on Estrogen Status and the Skeletal Response to Loading
(2011-10-21)
Moderate energy restriction in young, exercising women attenuates the positive
effects of exercise on bone density. Studies have shown that in the absence of adequate
levels of circulating estrogen, there may not be ...
Second Level Cluster Dependencies: A Comparison of Modeling Software and Missing Data Techniques
(2011-10-21)
Dependencies in multilevel models at the second level have never been thoroughly examined. For certain designs first-level subjects are independent over time, but the second level subjects may exhibit nonzero covariances ...
Bouquet: a Satellite Constellation Visualization Program for Walkers and Lattice Flower Constellations
(2011-10-21)
The development of the Flower Constellation theory offers an expanded framework to utilize constellations of satellites for tangible interests. To realize the full potential of this theory, the beta version of Bouquet was ...
Interfacial Properties of Ultrathin- Film Metal Electrodes: Studies by Combined Electron Spectroscopy and Electrochemistry
(2012-07-16)
A pair of studies investigating the deposition and surface chemical properties of ultrathin metal films were pursued: (i) Pt-Co alloys on Mo(110); and (ii) Pd on Pt(111). Experimental measurement was based on a combination ...
Forces on laboratory model dredge cutterhead
(2010-07-14)
Dredge cutting forces produced by the movement of the cutterhead through the sediment have been measured with the laboratory dredge carriage located at the Haynes Coastal Engineering Laboratory. The sediment bed that was ...
Use of a Thermodynamic Engine Cycle Simulation to Study a Turbocharged Spark-ignition Engine
(2010-07-14)
The second law analysis is a powerful tool for assessing the performance of engines
and has been employed for few decades now. Turbocharged diesel engines have been
explored in much detail with the help of second law ...
Increasing Well Productivity in Gas Condensate Wells in Qatar's North Field
(2010-07-14)
Condensate blockage negatively impacts large natural gas condensate reservoirs all over the world; examples include Arun Field in Indonesia, Karachaganak Field in Kazakhstan, Cupiagua Field in Colombia,Shtokmanovskoye Field ...
SAR Endolysin Regulation in dsDNA Phage Lysis of Gram-Negative Hosts
(2012-02-14)
SAR endolysins are a recently discovered class of muralytic enzymes that are regulated by dynamic membrane topology. They are synthesized as enzymatically inactive integral membrane proteins during the phage infection cycle ...
Measurements of Drag Torque and Lift Off Speed and Identification of Stiffness and Damping in a Metal Mesh Foil Bearing
(2010-07-14)
Metal mesh foil bearings (MMFBs) are a promising low cost gas bearing technology
for support of high speed oil-free microturbomachinery. Elimination of complex oil
lubrication and sealing system by installing MMFBs in oil ...
