  • The nonlinear wavemaker problem

    Creator:
    Owen, Amy M.
    Abstract:
    The two dimensional wavemaker problem on a finite domain is derived for nonlinear waves. A numerical method based on the method of lines is developed and applied to two test problems, the nonlinear surface pressure distribution problem and the nonlinear full-flap wavemaker problem. The solutions yield information about the fluid...

  • Factors contributing to the formation of CC-->TT tandem mutations

    Creator:
    Skinner, Amy M.
    Abstract:
    The multistage model of carcinogenesis states that an accumulation of mutations in genes that are important for maintaining cellular homeostasis may lead to cancer. A specific type of mutation observed in particular types of cancer is the CC-->TT mutation found in the TP53 gene of patients with basal or squamous...
