Synthesis And Characterization Of Ferromagnetic Nanoparticles
(Materials Science & Engineering, 2008-04-22)
Ferromagnetic nanoparticles and their bimagnetic nanoparticles with uniform size distribution have drawn great attention in the past decades because of their unique magnetic properties and potential applications in high ...
Microfluidic Flow Cytometer For High Throughput Label Free Cell Analysis
(Biomedical Engineering, 2008-09-17)
Microfluidic flow cytometer for high throughput label free cell analysis is proposed. Detection of cell morphology plays an important role in determination of state of health and diagnosis of many diseases such as sickle ...
Localization In Noisy Environment Using Extended Kalman Filter
(Electrical Engineering, 2008-04-22)
Localization is an important aspect of Wireless Sensor Networks. Information regarding the position of the sensor nodes is not always known. Without the position information of the sensors, the data reported by the sensors ...
The Contribution Of The Dorsal Root Reflex And The Sympathetic Nervous System In Formalin-evoked Neurogenic Inflammation
(Psychology, 2008-09-17)
The present study investigated the role of dorsal root reflex (DRR), which is characterized as antidromic firing via primary afferent fibers towards the periphery, and the sympathetic nervous system in neurogenic inflammation. ...
Equine Assisted Therapy And Exercise With Eating Disorders: A Retrospective Chart Reveiw And Mixed Method Analysis
(Social Work, 2008-09-17)
Eating disorders are a group of devastating mental illnesses that chronically affect millions of young women and men of all ages and ethnicities in industrialized nations. Mainstream treatment approaches thus far have ...
Study Of NIRS Based Motor Cortex Activation Patterns In Cerebral Palsy Affected Kids Using Image Based Metrics
(Biomedical Engineering, 2008-09-17)
In recent years the National Institutes of Health has placed great emphasis on addressing the emergent need to accelerate translation of laboratory discoveries into clinical practice. The proposed study is very much aligned ...
Impact Of Lateral Swell Pressure On Retaining Structure Design Using Expansive Cohesive Backfill
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2008-08-08)
Since cohesive soils are difficult to drain once becoming saturated, in order to reduce lateral earth pressures exerted by saturated cohesive soils on retaining structures, retaining wall designs most always specify use ...
An Ecological Systems Theory Approach In Looking at Mental Health Care Barriers in the Latino Community
(Social Work, 2008-08-08)
This study is an analysis of the association between mental healthcare barriers at the microsystem level using an ecological systems theory and key demographic variables among Latinos 18 years of age and older residing in ...
Localization Of Biliary Tree Structures By Use Of Photon Diffusion Models
(Biomedical Engineering, 2008-08-08)
A novel computational methodology is proposed for the intraoperative localization of biliary tree structures by means of spectrally resolved near-infrared reflectance measurements. As these structures are embedded in fatty ...
Thermal Stresses Of Composite Beams With Rectangular And Tubular Cross-sections
(Mechanical Engineering, 2008-04-22)
Closed-form analytical solutions for laminated composite beams with tubular and rectangular cross-sections are developed for evaluating the thermal induced stresses. The derivations are based on modified lamination theory ...
