Utilization of ground peanut husk as an alternative fiber material for particleboard

Creator:: Newton, Jacob A.
Abstract:: This research examined the potential for using peanut husk as a fiber alternative to wood in the production of melamine-formaldehyde (MF) particleboard. MF resin was used to produce panels with one, three, six, nine or 12 percent resin contents. Modulus of Rupture (MOR), Modulus of Elasticity (MOE), Internal Bond (IB)...

A taxonomy of biomolecular features

Creator:: North, Jacob L.
Abstract:: The scientific method applies hypothesis testing to material samples through experimentation, measurement, and data analysis, which produce representations—or features—that describe phenomena of interest. Biomolecular features come in numerous forms such as values, matrices, graphs, three-dimensional structures, trajectories, and molecular surfaces. Researchers have tested thousands of features related to protein molecules...

Evidence of age-related improvement in the foraging efficiency of Adelie penguins

Creator:: Lescroel, Amelie, Ballard, Grant, Massaro, Melanie, Dugger, Katie, Jennings, Scott, Pollard, Annie, Porzig, Elizabeth, Schmidt, Annie, Varsani, Arvind, Gremillet, David, and Ainley, David
Abstract:: Age variation in reproductive performance is well-documented but the mechanisms underlying this variation remain unclear. Foraging efficiency is likely to be a key source of demographic variation as it determines the amount of energy that can be invested in fitness-related activities. Evidence of age related changes in the foraging efficiency...
