ANALYSIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A PROGRAMMABLE LOW-DROPOUT REGULATOR
(2007-09-17)
As portable electronic devices become a part of daily life, it creates a huge market for electronic components for those battery driven devices. Low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator is an important part that provides steady ...
A NEW ANALYTICAL MODEL FOR STRESS CONCENTRATION AROUND HARD SPHERICAL PARTICLES IN METAL MATRIX COMPOSITES
(2007-09-17)
This analytical model predicts the stress concentration around an elastic, spherical particle in an elastic-plastic metal matrix using strain gradient plasticity theory and a finite unit cell. The model reduces to the ...
The Infection of Freshwater Cyanobacteria by Their Phages
(2007-09-17)
Phage lysis of cyanobacteria could significantly influence nutrient availability in aquatic systems. We examined the requirements of phage infection in freshwater cyanobacteria
and identified several factors that affected ...
Probing the Vibrational Relaxation of N2 and O2 by Use of CARS Spectroscopy to Model NTE-Turbulence
(2009-06-09)
The thermochemical dynamics associated with hypersonic flight and turbulent flow is vital to understanding the effects that hypersonic turbulence has on objects or vehicles traveling at speeds above Mach 5 (~ 1708 m/s). ...
JOINT INVOVLEMENT AND MOVEMENT AMPLITUDE IN TWO-SEGEMENT MOVEMENTS
(2007-09-17)
The purpose of this research is to identify the effect of varying constraints on the planning and organization of multijoint movements, specifically how amplitude and movement direction affect the planning and organization ...
U.S. Minority and Women Owned Small Businesses
(2007-09-17)
The purpose of this research is to explore the effects of certain factors on the success of globalization of U.S. minority and women owned small businesses. Research in this area to date has addressed minorities and women ...
CHARACTERIZATION OF MYCOSIN FAMILY PROTEASES, NOVEL DRUG TARGETS OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS
(2007-09-17)
Tuberculosis is the world’s leading cause of death by infectious disease. Antibiotic resistance and HIV co-infection is increasing at an alarming rate. Mycosins-1-5 are subtilisin-like serine proteases within the periplasmic ...
Passivation Polymer Bulking Versus Sucrose Impregnation: A Cross-Methodological Approach to the Conservation of Leather
(2008-08-19)
Archaeological leather, especially that which comes from wet excavation sites, has long challenged conservators who wish to preserve it so that it will be long lasting, stable, and informative for cultural analysis. Both ...
SYMBOLS OF CONSERVATISM AT A TIME OF UNCERTAINTY
(2007-09-17)
Traditional research on political parties suggests that there are certain routes that each
party should take to secure support for their policies. Republicans have found success by
campaigning on symbols and more abstract ...
Effects of Pinealectomy on Metabolic Activity and Clock Gene Expression in Passer domesticus
(2008-08-19)
The biological clock and the biological rhythms it controls are anticipatory mechanisms found ubiquitously across a wide variety of taxa, ranging from prokaryotes to eukaryotes, from bacteria to animals. Avian species, ...
