Nanoparticle Bridge DNA Biosensor
(Materials Science & Engineering, 2010-07-19)
A new DNA sensing method is demonstrated in which DNA hybridization events lead to the formation of nanoparticle satellites that bridge two electrodes and are detected electrically. The hybridization events are exclusively ...
Characteristics Of Fresh Municipal Solid Waste
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2010-07-19)
The characteristics of fresh municipal solid waste (MSW) are critical in planning, designing, operating or upgrading solid waste management systems. Physical composition, moisture content, compacted unit weight, permeability ...
Effect Of Leachate Recirculation On Methane Generation Of A Bioreactor Landfill
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2010-11-01)
Municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal is of current concern due to the green-house effect and rising temperature all around the globe. Landfill gas is generated from aerobic & anaerobic biodegradation of organic materials ...
Effect Of Friction On The Zel'dovich Von Neumann Doring To Chapman Jouguet Transition
(Aerospace Engineering, 2010-11-01)
Detonation theory proposes Chapman-Jouguet state of equilibrium due to the sonic speed of the products relative to the wave. Experimental observations however indicated the existence of a sub-Chapman-Jouguet state. The ...
Integration Mechanism Of The Site Specific Non-LTR Retrotransposon, R2Bm
(Biology, 2010-07-19)
The focus of this thesis is the mechanistic study of non-LTR retrotransposon replication using the site specific transposon R2Bm. Non-LTR retrotransposons integrate into new chromosomal sites by copying their RNA back ...
Evaluation Of Ferry Based Opportunistic Message Dissemination With Deterministic Inter Contact Times
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2010-07-19)
Opportunistic Networks are characterized by intermittent connectivity and volatile topology. In such a network scenario, traditional Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) routing protocols cannot work efficiently. Hence, a novel ...
A Systematic Review Of The Literature On The Association Between Evidence-based ADHD Treatment And Later Adolescent/adult Substance Abuse
(Social Work, 2010-07-19)
Objective: There has been much controversy over prescribing stimulant medication to treat the symptoms of childhood Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This study aims to explore the relationship between ...
Web Application Integration Using Mashups
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2010-03-03)
The HTML DOM is the W3C standard data model for HTML documents. A web page may be viewed as a tree structure with data nodes at each level, according to the HTML DOM, to enable web applications to access it dynamically. ...
Integration Of Data Mining Algorithms And Control Charts For Multivariate And Autocorrelated Processes
(Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering, 2010-03-03)
The objective of this dissertation is to integrate state-of-the-art data mining algorithms with statistical process control (SPC) tools to achieve efficient monitoring in multivariate and autocorrelated process. Process ...
Investigation Of The Lower Bound Compressive And Flexural Strengths Of Conventional Concrete And Clay Masonry
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2010-07-19)
Conventional masonry is a handcrafted product in which units are placed by hand in a mortar bedding that is prepared during construction. TMS 402 Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (also referred to by the ...
