New acoustic emission applications in civil engineering

Creator:: Schumacher, Thomas
Abstract:: Non-destructive testing methods and applications have become of increasing interest due to the worldwide aging and deteriorating infrastructure network. In the field of Civil Engineering, bridges and bridge components as well as non-structural elements such as roadway pavements for example, are affected. In particular, the Acoustic Emission (AE) technique offers...

Development of an Accelerated Method for Assessing Decay of Wood Plastic Composites (WPC's)

Creator:: Silva Guzman, Jose Antonio
Abstract:: This study examined the decay resistance of the pine and maple components of wood plastic composites (WPC' s) of varying thicknesses exposed on several culture media to wood decay fungi under laboratory conditions. The ability of malt agar extract (MEA), potato dextrose agar (PDA), amended basal salts, sawdust (maple and...

Engineering analysis of a rotary dryer : drying of wood particles

Creator:: Kamke, Frederick A.
Abstract:: Rotary dryers are the most commonly used wood drying system in the particleboard industry. These dryers also play an increasingly important role in drying wood residues for fuel. Many potential benefits may be realized through an improved understanding of the rotary drying process. A rotary dryer simulation model was developed,...

Mandelalides as Potent Mitochondrial ATP Synthase Inhibitors : From Discovery of New Analogs to Function-Oriented Synthetic Studies

Creator:: Nazari, Mohamad
Abstract:: Our quest for pharmaceutically important marine natural products led to re-isolation of known mandelalides A-D and identification of new congeners E-L from re-collected South African Lissoclinum tunicate specimens. Mandelalides A, B, and L were characterized as selective cancer cell toxins, with an unusual activity profile influenced by their glycosylation /...

Crystallin proteolysis in lens during aging and cataract formation

Creator:: Ueda, Yoji
Abstract:: The major purpose of this research was to characterize partially degraded proteins appearing in the ocular lens during aging and cataract, and to identify the responsible proteolytic activities. This research is significant, because increased protein degradation is associated with lens opacification and cataract. Determining the sites where lens proteins become...

Development of Methods for Stereoselective Carbon-Carbon Bond Formation

Creator:: Wu, Zhenhua
Abstract:: Three distinct methods to achieve the stereoselective synthesis of carbon-carbon bonds were investigated, encompassing: (i) the formation of axially chiral biaryl molecules by enantioselective Suzuki cross-coupling, (ii) the synthesis of α-phenylalkylboronic esters by enantioselective chain extension, and (iii) the stereospecific synthesis of alkenes by eliminative cross-coupling of enantioenriched sp³-hybridized carbenoids....

Full Text:: the targeted alkene [(E)- or (Z)- isomer] as determined by choice of carbenoid stereochemical pairing

The influence of cognitive conflict on religious thinking in fifth and sixth grade children

Creator:: Abraham, Kitty Greene
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness of two religious education curricula in facilitating measure-able concrete-to-abstract movement in children's religious thinking. Subjects for the study were 47 fifth and sixth grade children enrolled in the Sunday School classes of four Oregon United Methodist Churches. Twenty-four children who...
