(2006-05-15)
Autism is a lifelong neurological developmental disability that results (to varying degrees) in social, communication, and behavior impairments. Autism is primarily diagnosed in childhood, therefore, a preponderance of ...
Static Friction and Junction Growth of Contacting Three-dimensional Sinusoidal Asperities and Rough surfaces
(2017-11-30)
It is reported that about one third of the world's primary energy per year was consumed by friction, and about 55% of the machine parts failed due to wear and tear. Therefore, it is important to understand the process ...
Static Load Testing of a Damaged, Continuous Prestressed Concrete Bridge
(2009-05-15)
Shortly after the completion of interstate highway I-565 in Huntsville, Alabama, cracks were discovered in the continuous end of many of the prestressed concrete bulb-tee girders. Alabama Department of Transportation ...
Static Program Analysis In Presence Of Multiple Configurations
(2014-07-11)
C programs make heavy use of the C preprocessor, which makes them highly configurable. C programming IDEs ignore multiple configurations of C preprocessor because of its complexity. However, program analyses and transformations ...
Static Resistance Functions for Unbonded Retrofit Unreinforced Concrete Masonry Walls with Plate Connection for Blast Design Applications
(2013-07-10)
Over the past two decades the use of explosives to attack both commercial and government buildings has increased. A substantial amount of research has been conducted to be able to protect not only the occupants but the ...
Static, Dynamic and Acoustical Properties of Sandwich Composite Materials
(2007-05-15)
Sandwich composite materials have been widely used in recent years for the construction of spacecraft, aircraft, and ships, mainly because of their high stiffness-to-weight ratios and the introduction of a viscoelastic ...
A Statistical Analysis of Alcohol Availability and Violent Crimes in the State of Alabama
(2008-05-15)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the availability of alcohol at the county level and show its effects on violent crime rates in the state of Alabama. The sample for this study consisted of 66 Alabama counties, ...
A Statistical Analysis of Georgia's HMA Quality Assurance Proccess
(2005-12-15)
In the recent years, there has been a push towards allowing contractors to use their own test results in the quality assurance process of Departments of Transportation (DOTs). While this movement saves the states money ...
Statistical Analysis of Time Delays in USB Type Sensor Interfaces on Windows-based Low Cost Controllers
(2008-12-15)
Real-time control systems need sensor data at periodic and predictable time intervals- this is one aspect of what is commonly called ""determinism"". Common forces that present
challenges to determinism in Windows-based ...
Statistical and Visual Analysis of Solder Joint Reliability in extreme Environments
(2019-04-26)
Over the last several decades, surface mount technology has advanced and become the most profitable industry worldwide. Cell phones or some type of hand held technology have become prominent throughout multiple age groups. ...
Statistical Human Body Form Classification: Methodology Development and Application
(2012-05-01)
The focus of this exploratory study was statistical human body form classification. Prior studies have explored human body size and shape but few have explored human body form. The actual human body is a three-dimensional ...
Statistical Inference for High-Dimensional Regularized Huber Regression
(2023-04-18)
With the rapid advancement of technology, the amount of available data for extracting interesting insights and meaningful patterns has grown exponentially, resulting in a significant increase in the dimensionality of ...
Statistical methods for identification of NF-κB related genes and their expression profiles in channel catfish after bacterial infection
(2017-04-16)
Interactions of NF-κB family, IκB family and IKK complex are key components of NF-κB pathway that is essential for many biological processes including innate and adaptive immunity, and inflammation and stress responses. ...
