Otoferlin is a C2-domain, transmembrane protein whose mutated form is responsible for the DFNB9 subtype of prelingual hearing impairment. Mutations in otoferlin cause an autosomal recessive, non-syndromic form of deafness that is characterized by auditory neuropathy/ auditory dissynchrony (AN/AD), meaning that the outer hair cells (OHCs) are normal, and the...
Expansive soils in Eugene, Oregon present a problem to
residents, consultants, contractors, and the city government. During
the years 1977 to 1979, the nature and extent of the problem was
identified, including an outline of the local occurrence of expansive
soils and possible engineering solutions to the most often encountered...
A generalized modeling system was developed for digital computer
simulation of the pharmacodynamic response of selected chemicals
introduced into mammalian systems. The modeling system is based on
the compartmental approach used extensively in pharmacodynamic studies
in which the mammal is assumed to be subdivided into compartments
which interact by means...
Analysis, visualization, and design of vector fields on surfaces have a wide variety of major applications in both scientific visualization and computer graphics. On the one hand, analysis and visualization of vector fields provide critical insights to the flow data produced from simulation or experiments of various engineering processes. On...
Many applications in computer graphics and geometry processing rely on the ability to
locally orient 2D and 3D entities on a surface, or inside a volume, such as the sinusoidal
kernels in Gabor noise, the color and geometry textures in pattern synthesis, and the
finite elements in remeshing. In these...
