Interfacial Engineering of MicroStructured Materials
(2010-05-06)
The tribological behavior of octadecyltrichlorosilane self assembled monolayers (OTS SAMs) has been successfully exploited to reduce energy losses and to produce adequate adhesion barrier properties on many MEMS surfaces. ...
Development of Phage/Antibody Immobilized Magnetostrictive Biosensors
(2010-05-03)
There is an urgent need for biosensors that are able to detect and quantify the presence of a small amount of pathogens in a real-time manner accurately and quickly to guide prevention efforts and assay food and water ...
Evolution of Flowering Time in Native North American Grapevines
(2010-05-03)
Native North American grapevines represent a significant portion of the biodiversity within the genus Vitis (Vitaceae). Previous studies of taxonomy and natural history suggested patterns of biogeography, phenology and ...
Activated carbon fiber filter media for proton exchange membrane fuel cell
(2010-05-03)
Sulfur dioxide, a major air pollutant, has been found to be poisonous to proton exchange membrane fuel cells and causes degradation of fuel cell systems. Currently used industrial desulfurization systems, such as wet ...
Development of MEMS Piezoelectric Energy Harvesters
(2010-05-06)
The research of powering devices in a microwatt range has been activated and developed by the emergence of low-power Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technology in the past few years. The powering devices require a size ...
Performance Analysis of Attitude Determination Algorithms for Low Cost Attitude Heading Reference Systems
(2010-05-03)
Development of micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) and micro-electro optical
mechanical system (MEOMS) inertial sensors has been driven by the need for inexpensive
sensing solutions in military and commercial applications. ...
"Reeled in and Warmly Socketed": Mass Mediated Identity of the Contemporary Literary Figure
(2010-05-05)
In the literature of a globalized twenty and twenty-first century world, mass media
help to shape characters’ perceptions of selfhood and agency. As media forms are
incorporated into the daily lives of characters, important ...
An Examination of Metamorphic Uranium Occurrences in Coosa County, Alabama
(2010-07-06)
Coosa County, Alabama, is host to one or more presumably metamorphosed uranium occurrences of unknown size or grade. The exact location, size and mode of emplacement of each uranium occurrence is currently unknown. This ...
The Impact of Perceived Price Fairness of Dynamic Pricing on Customer Satisfaction and Behavioral Intentions: The Moderating Role of Customer Loyalty
(2010-07-12)
Applying theories and principles rooted in consumer behavior including equity theory and distributive justice, the current research presents a conceptual framework to explain the formation of price fairness perceptions ...
Thermotolerance of Hemlock (Tsuga spp.) and Investigation of a Foliar Disorder in Crapemyrtle (Lagerstroemia indica ×fauriei)
(2010-07-19)
Foliar thermotolerance of six Tsuga species to direct heat injury was evaluated using electrolyte leakage. Species evaluated included: T. canadensis, T. caroliniana, T. chinensis, T. diversifolia, T. heterophylla, and T. ...
