A study was made on the effect of CCC (2-chloroethyl)-trimethyl-ammonium
chloride), a plant growth retardant, on the RNA (ribonucleic
acid) content of wheat plants, It was found that the RNA content of
wheat leaves generally decreased with increasing levels of CCC up to
1x10⁻⁵M. Thereafter, the RNA content again increased...
This thesis presents a general model for the location problem
based on integer linear programming with fixed charges. The location
problem is concerned with choosing locations for facilities
throughout a particular region or area in such a way that total costs
and expenses incurred are minimized. Although the location problem...
Certain fluids exhibit an increase in flow resistance when subjected to an electric field. This electroviscous response, known as the
Winslow effect, has been the basis for development of a unique control
medium. Applying a strong potential across the fluid causes it to
"stiffen", even to the point of ceasing...
This paper presents a theoretical study of real-time bandwidth
compression systems using the Hilbert transform and associated analytic
signal concept. An analytic signal is defined as
u(t) = s(t) + [superscript ¯]js(t) , where [superscript ¯]s(t) is the Hilbert transform of the signal
s(t). A complete discussion of the properties...
