In this thesis we take a close look at the paper CMC Capillary Surfaces at Reentrant Corners [33] a central feature of which is the question of when does the "central fan" of radial limits exist for a capillary graph in a ...

A combination of theoretical chemistry and “action” spectroscopy has become the most used tool for the exploration of gas-phase molecular ions. In this study, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to ...

In the current dissertation, the relationship between police officer selection procedures and officer performance during the first year of employment was investigated within a metropolitan law enforcement agency. Ninety-two ...

The increasing production of low-cost natural gas, with methane (CH4) as its major component, provides a clear motivation for CH4 upgrading to value-added liquids. Single-step catalytic approaches have long been studied ...

Pathogenesis of anthrax is due primarily to the secretion of the anthrax toxin, a tripartite set of proteins that include protective antigen (PA), edema factor (EF), and lethal factor (LF). PA binds to the Von-Willebrand ...

Clean drinking water is one of the most important issues in the world and will be one of the most studied subjects together with food in the near future. Some freshwater sources are contaminated with sulfur, nitrogen, ...

In the late 1800’s and early 1900’s lead and zinc mining became prominent in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri. With no knowledge of the effects that would impact the future, the mining companies continued to strip the land. ...

Advancements in display technology made it easier for manufacturers to develop and sell high-resolution displays (HRDs) to consumers, and HRDs are frequently marketed as beneficial for graphically intense tasks. Therefore, ...

With an increase in the amount of information being exchanged every day, there is a need for storage repositories and faster networks to retrieve data with a minimum amount of time delay. Keeping this in mind, inroads have ...
