Under laboratory conditions, elevated temperatures accelerated production of gametes. However, when conditioning for spawning at elevated temperatures was
initiated early in the season (January-March), larval survival and number of spat collected were significantly lower than when conditioning was initiated in may or June. At elevated temperatures, broodstock oysters were fed...
There is a growing need for individualized instructional designs in 4-year institutions due to: 1) growing undergraduate enrollment trends across the U.S., 2) broader diversity in students backgrounds, and 3) the growing prevalence of asynchronous remote learning. With the growth in computer technology in education, tools such as adaptive intelligent...
The matrix compression behavior is assumed similar to tension, and many material's elastic and damage parameters are considered equal in tension and compression but experimentally not explored. This assumption leads to unrealistic or very far from the actual behavior of the matrix under compression. Moreover, the pre-existing implemented Abaqus models...
