Abstract:: This pocket guide highlights fire-resistant plants that thrive in Willamette Valley growing conditions. It recommends groundcovers, perennials, shrubs, woody vines, and trees. There are too many annual plants available to list them all. In general, annuals are considered fire-resistant if they are kept well irrigated.

Creator:: Mordorski, Breanne, Pelgrift, Robert, Adler, Brandon, Krausz, Aimee, da Costa Neto, Alexandre Batista, Liang, Hongying, Gunther, Leslie, Clendaniel, Alicea, Harper, Stacey, Friedman, Joel M., Nosanchuk, Joshua D., Nacharaju, Parimala, and Friedman, Adam J.
Abstract:: Nitric oxide (NO) is an essential agent of the innate immune system which exhibits multi-mechanistic antimicrobial activity. Previously, increased antimicrobial activity against E. coli with nitric oxide releasing nanoparticles (NO-np) was demonstrated when combined with glutathione, versus NO-np alone, due to formation of S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), a potent transnitrosylating agent. To...

Abstract:: Background: High birthweight is an established risk factor for childhood leukaemia. Its association with other childhood cancers is less clear, with studies hampered by low case numbers. Methods: We used two large independent datasets to explore risk associations between birthweight and all subtypes of childhood cancer. Data for 16 554...

Creator:: Seyedmahmoudi, S. H., Harper, Stacey L., Weismiller, Michael C., and Haapala, Karl R.
Abstract:: Adding nanoparticles (NPs) to metalworking fluids (MWFs) has been shown to improve performance in metal cutting. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO₂ NPs), for example, have exhibited the ability to improve lubricant performance, decrease the heat created by machining operations, reduce friction and wear, and enhance...

Abstract:: This paper presents novel data fusion methods that enable teams of vehicles to perform target search tasks without guaranteed communication. Techniques are introduced for merging estimates of a target’s position from vehicles that regain contact after long periods of time, and a fully distributed team planning algorithm is proposed that...

Creator:: Humphries, T. D. and Haynes, R. D.
Abstract:: Optimal well placement and optimal well control are two important areas of study in oilfield development. Although the two problems differ in several respects, both are important considerations in optimizing total oilfield production, and so recent work in the field has considered the problem of addressing both problems jointly. Two...

Abstract:: A detailed mechanism for the four-component RD387 gasoline surrogate developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has shown good agreement with experiments in engine-relevant conditions. However, with 1388 species and 5933 reversible reactions, this detailed mechanism is far too large to use in practical engine simulations. Therefore, reduction of the detailed...

Creator:: Dodson, Erich K. and Root, Heather T.
Abstract:: Community re-assembly following future disturbances will often occur under warmer and more moisture-limited conditions than when current communities assembled. Because the establishment stage is regularly the most sensitive to climate and competition, the trajectory of recovery from disturbance in a changing environment is uncertain, but has important consequences for future...
