  • Effect of moderate alcohol consumption on biochemical markers of bone turnover in postmenopausal women

    Creator:
    Marrone, Jill
    Abstract:
    Epidemiological studies have reported that postmenopausal women who consume moderate quantities of alcohol have higher bone mass than non-drinkers. However, the mechanism for the putative bone-sparing effect of alcohol is unknown. Postmenopausal bone loss is due, in part, to increased bone turnover. This study investigated the hypotheses that alcohol slows...

  • Detection of actinides via nuclear isomer de-excitation

    Francy, Christopher J.
    Abstract:
    The detection of illicit weapons-grade nuclear material is a significant technical challenge receiving a great deal of attention in the nuclear community. A proposed solution is to actively bombard the material under investigation with neutrons, populating nuclear isomers in any potential fissile material. These isomers decay quickly, releasing gamma rays...

  • A resource-constrained scheduling scheme that considers resources operating at multiple voltages and register assignment

    Creator:
    Lee, Chee
    Abstract:
    Power and timing requirements are becoming more and more stringent as applications move from less mobile devices to more mobile ones. As such, it is important to optimize these applications as much as possible in order to provide the best solution that is low power and low latency. Although there...
