We investigate several aspects of the numerical solution of the radiative transfer
equation in the context of coal combustion: the parallel efficiency of two commonly used
opacity models, the sensitivity of turbulent radiation interaction (TRI) effects
to the presence of coal particulate, and an improvement of the order of temporal...
Having excess weight carries a negative social stigma in the U.S. Previous research has shown that experiencing stigma has negative physical and mental health consequences. Few studies have examined how experiencing weight stigma might act as a barrier to engaging in healthy behaviors among older adults. The purpose of this...
Your 4-H dairy calf will provide you with a wonderful and worthwhile experience. You will gain new knowledge and skills through real life experiences and will realize the satisfaction and dignity of work. As you care for your calf daily, you will learn the true meaning of responsibility. The calf...
As you progress in this more advanced area of your dairy project, you should find many interesting and challenging experiences.
How you develop this phase of your project depends somewhat on your home situation. If you live on a dairy farm and have a commercial market for milk, you will...
The intent of this work is to extend Implicit Monte Carlo Diffusion (IMD)[Gen.
2001] to account for frequency dependence and to incorporate the difference formulation[Szo. 2005] as a source manipulation variance reduction technique. This
work shows the derivation of the probabilities and the associated proofs which
govern the frequency dependent...
Systemic hypertension, a persistent elevation in systemic arterial blood pressure (BP), is a well-recognized disorder in cats. Failing to diagnose it accurately could lead to organ damage or unnecessary lifelong therapy. Doppler ultrasonic flow detectors are commonly used for indirect BP measurements in cats. However, whether the audible static from...
