Regular null curves in Regular null curves in L³ always have a time component parametrization. This fact puts the Frenet equations for regular null curves in L³ in a simple form. A fundamental existence and uniqueness theorem for regular null curves in L³ is proved, and applications to geometry are...
This study deals with the histochemistry of the
changing patterns of glycogen in the uterus and extra-embryonic membranes of the golden hamster (Mesocricetus
auratus Waterhouse). The uterus and extra-embryonic
membranes of the golden hamster representing days of
gestation from six to term were stained with periodic
acid-Schiff and Best's carmine....
Human settlement patterns are the ways in which people locate themselves over the terrain in their area of occupation. Settlement pattern prediction attempts to define and understand the factors in culture, technology, and environment that shape the spatial distribution of habitation sites for a given group of people. A systematic...
In many geotechnical design situations involving tight right-of-way constraints, Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls are often the most cost-effective and reliable earth retention technology among available alternatives. However, few well-documented case histories with detailed material testing, instrumentation programs and construction observation of performance are available in the literature. Despite the...
The objective of this work was to determine and optimize the resolution of a neutron sensitive Multi-Channel Plate (MCP) detector in order to determine its capabilities in radiography and tomography. The Oregon State University, Neutron Radiography Facility added an MCP Detector in 2012 in order to analyze these capabilities. The...
State water bottom acreage leased by the Louisiana oyster industry has increased sharply over the past 50 years. Because of the property rights associated with these leases, there has been increasing conflict
between the oyster industry and other coastal resource users, in particular oil-and-gas companies and entities engaged in coastal...
An interdisciplinary study, USGS Columbia River Contaminants and Habitat Characterization (ConHab) project, is underway to investigate transport pathways, chemical fate and effects of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in aquatic media and the foodweb in the lower Columbia River. Polar organic chemical integrative samplers (POCIS) and...
