Overpressure in the Eastern Bengal Basin, Bangladesh, and Its Relation to Compressional Tectonics
(2009-08-11)
Proximity to the Indian craton, the Himalayas, and the Indo–Burman ranges and rapid orogenic sedimentation have resulted in the generation of overpressure in the Bengal basin. In eastern Bengal basin, overpressure zones ...
Overseeded TifEagle Bermudagrass Putting Greens: Effects of Nitrogen (N) Rate and Traffic
(2013-07-30)
Hybrid bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon x C. transvaalensis Burtt-Davy) putting greens are often overseeded with a cool season species at the onset of fall dormancy. Intended to provide winter color for the putting surface ...
Overseeding Eastern gamagrass with cool-season grasses or grass-legume mixtures
(2017-07-07)
The first year and a half of a 2-yr study was conducted at Black Belt Research and Extension Center in Marion Junction, AL to evaluate the effects of overseeding early- vs. late-maturing cool-season forages on forage ...
Overstory management to regenerate longleaf pine and control invasive Chinese tallow in fire ecosystems
(2017-04-17)
The native longleaf pine ecosystem is one of the most important, and depleted, ecosystems in the southeastern United States. Restoring this habitat is of major importance to land managers and conservationists alike. ...
Overwhelmed and Under Pressure: The Influence of Extracurricular Over-Involvement on Academic Success and Student-Faculty Relationships
(2014-07-02)
Involvement in extracurricular activities is an oft-studied element of the college experience, especially as it has been linked to positive academic and non-academic measures. Yet, the possible limits of involvement’s ...
Oxidation behavior of Ferritic Alloys as Interconnect of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC)
(2012-05-04)
In planar solid oxide fuel cell SOFCs, interconnects separate adjacent single cells, and Cr-containing ferritic stainless steel alloys can be used for interconnects. Oxidation resistance under the SOFC high temperature ...
Oxidation of Glutathione, Cysteinesulfinic Acid and N,N-dimethylhydroxylamine Hydrochloride by Transition Metals
(2013-07-25)
The aqueous oxidations of glutathione (GSH) by the substitutionally inert outer-sphere oxidants [IrCl6]2–, [Fe(bpy)2(CN)2]+ and [Fe(bpy)(CN)4]– have been investigated at 25 °C and ionic strength (μ) = 0.1 M between pH 1 ...
Oxidative and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Response to Reproduction in the Female Mouse Brain
(2019-04-16)
Reproduction is associated with a significant increase in energetic demand, particularly among small female mammals. When these demands are high, or an animal is under stress, the cost of reproduction can reduce future ...
Oxidative Stress and Antioxidant Defenses in Lymphocytes Following High Intensity Interval Training
(2009-12-16)
A substantial body of evidence suggests strenuous exercise causes perturbations to the immune system and increases the formation of reactive oxygen species. Performing routine moderate exercise stimulates the immune system, ...
Oxidative Stress and Heart Rate Variability Following an Accute Bout of CrossFit
(2014-05-01)
The purpose of this Dissertation was to provide a better understanding of the physiological stress involved in the newly popular style of exercise named CrossFit, and compare these findings to a more ‘traditional’ mode of ...
Ozonation and Photodegradation of Oil Compounds by Surface Level Ozone and Engineered Catalysts in Marine Ecosystem
(2018-11-27)
Marine oil spill has been an environmental challenge for many decades. As the use of oil dispersants has become one of the main approaches to clean up spilled oil, the environmental behavior of dispersed oil remains poorly ...
Ozone Removal at Microsecond Contact Time using Microfibrous Entrapped Catalysts
(2015-04-29)
Microfibrous Entrapped Catalysts (MFEC) manufactured from 8μm diameter nickel fibers were engineered into pleated heterogeneous catalytic reactors to improve catalytic performance from conventional packed bed and monolith ...
P2Y2 Receptor Biased Signaling in Control of Vascular Inflammation
(2016-12-09)
Vascular inflammation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of endotoxic shock and sepsis. Bacterial endotoxins like lipopolysaccharide (LPS) are biologically active substances that initiate the inflammatory response ...
The P2Y2 Receptor Control of Hyperglycemia-induced Insulin Resistance in Human Hepatocytes: A Unified Mechanism for Metformin
(2022-05-01)
According to the International Diabetes Federation, in 2021, 537 million adults were living with diabetes, and another 541 million adults were at increased risk of developing T2D (Facts & Figures, 2021.) Obesity, the most ...
Packaging of Silicon Carbide High Temperature, High Power Devices - Processes and Materials
(2006-05-15)
Silicon carbide (SiC) has unique electrical, thermal and physical properties compared to the Si and GaAs conventionally used in microelectronics as it can operate in the temperature range from 350ºC to 500ºC. However, there ...
Paired Pulse Basis Functions and Triangular Patch Modeling for the Method of Moments Calculation of Electromagnetic Scattering from Three-Dimensional, Arbitrarily-Shaped Bodies
