A comparison of the zone of proximal development in Anglo and Hispanic learning disabled elementary pupils
(1987)
The primary purpose of this research was to examine the differences, if any, in the zone of proximal development of learning disabled Anglo and Hispanic pupils. The zone of proximal development is defined as the difference ...
Deformation micromechanisms in polymeric matrices and carbon fibre reinforced composites
(1989)
The objective of this study is to identify the deformation micromechanisms operative in carbon fibre reinforced polymer composites and in the base polymers that act as the matrix material. The aim is to understand the ...
A simplified method for computing phase behavior of crude oil-carbon dioxide mixtures
(1988)
Phase behavior plays a fundamental role in oil recovery processes, ranging from the production of gas condensate and volatile oil reservoirs to the injection of CO2 and N2 for enhanced oil recovery processes. In phase ...
Kinetic studies of upgrading pine pyrolytic oil by hydrotreatment
(1985)
The pyrolysis of biomass refers to incomplete thermal degradation resulting in char, pyrolytic oil, and gaseous products. The pyrolytic oil is a complex mixture of many components including phenolics, anhydrosugars, and ...
An investigation of cosmic ray scintillations in muons near sea level
