Creator:: Roberts, Blaine R.
Abstract:: Oxygen derived radicals are involved in many aspects of life from aging and cell signaling to disease states as diverse as heart disease, diabetes, neurodegeneration and inflammation. Therefore, understanding the function of antioxidant defense proteins and the effects of oxygen derived radicals on protein function is essential to elucidate the...

Creator:: Lin, FuSen F.
Abstract:: In this dissertation, we investigate three numerical methods for inverting the Laplace transform. These methods are all based on the trapezoidal-type approximations to the Bromwich integral. The first method is the direct integration method: It is a straightforward application of the trapezoidal rule to the Bromwich integral, followed by convergence...

Full Text:: for a periodic and analytic function, the error of the trapezoi-dal-type rules are of exponential

Creator:: Elkins, Lori A.
Abstract:: The goal of this study was to optimize a through-boring pattern that will provide adequate preservative penetration while minimizing the reduction in overall pole bending strength. Hole spacing was developed using longitudinal and transverse chemical penetration data from previous studies. Finite element analysis was used as a preliminary assessment tool...

Creator:: Lake, Frank K.
Abstract:: The use of Native American fire regimes evolved in the Klamath-Siskiyou bioregion over millennia. A mixture of Native American and Euro-American socio-cultural management has developed from adaptations to climate, topography, ecological processes, and land use practices. This research incorporates Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) to partially examine the role of tribal...
