Novel Finite Element Method to Predict Blast Wave Transmission Through Human Ear
(2016-08)As military weapons systems continue to become more powerful, the noise levels they generate become more dangerous to the soldiers deploying them. This has increased the need for advanced methods of evaluating the risks ... -
A Novel Framework for Optimizing Indoor Illuminance and Discovering Association of Involved Variables
(2022-06-22)The associations between various design variables affecting the visual performance of responsive facade systems are investigated in this study. First, we propose a data-driven approach to study practical aspects of illuminance ... -
Novel Inducers of Fetal Globin Identified through High Throughput Screening (HTS) Are Active In Vivo in Anemic Baboons and Transgenic Mice
(PLos One, 2015-12-29)High-level fetal (γ) globin expression ameliorates clinical severity of the beta (β) hemoglobinopathies, and safe, orally-bioavailable γ-globin inducing agents would benefit many patients. We adapted a LCR-γ-globin ... -
A Novel Method for the Characterization of Anisotropic Materials
(2018-12-14)This thesis details the successful conceptualization, development, and proof of concept testing of a novel system for the characterization of a material's electromagnetic properties. In particular, the proposed system was ... -
Novel phenomena in confined electronic systems.
(2007)Modern experimental methods have made it possible for physicists to investigate matter in extreme conditions. Two of the most extreme conditions are low temperature and low dimensionality. Fabricated semiconductor or metal ... -
Novel platinum/KL catalysts for the aromatization of N-hexane.
(2000)Finally, regeneration of Pt/KL catalysts was studied for sulfur poisoned catalysts. While air effectively burned off coke deposits, sintering of Pt resulted. An oxychlorination treatment effectively redispersed the Pt. -
A novel polysaccharide-based surface engineering strategy for nanomedicines
(2022-08-04)This dissertation presents the development and evaluation of a novel polysaccharide-based surface engineering strategy for nanomedicines. Chapter one summaries the current status of nanoparticle toxicology. Nanoparticles ... -
A NOVEL POST-HOC MATCHING PROCEDURE USING STATISTICAL LEARNING METHODS
(2016)In this thesis, a statistical learning method is leveraged to create a novel measure for conducting post-hoc matching between a treatment group and a candidate set. Post-hoc matching is a necessary element in many non-random ... -
A NOVEL SCAFFOLD FOR GENERATION OF 3D TUMOR CONSTRUCTS
(2017-06-16)Cancer is the second most common cause of death in the United States, leading to over $440 million in annual funding for research and yet anticancer drug development is an unmet need. In order to find a more effective way ... -
NOVEL TARGETED ANNEXIN V - DRUG CONJUGATE FOR CANCER CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC TREATMENT
(2019)One of the most ubiquitous biomarkers of cancer is phosphatidylserine. It is expressed exclusively on the inner membrane leaflet of healthy vasculature, but tumor endothelium externalizes phosphatidylserine, taking advantage ... -
Novel targeted annexin V–nanoparticle conjugate for cancer photophermal therapy
(2020-12-18)Triple negative breast cancer represents a strong clinical challenge due to its high invasiveness and the lack of therapeutic targets. To overcome this problem, recent combination therapeutic strategies have been implemented. ... -
Novel Techniques for the Description and Interpretation of Microbial Communities in the Modern Human Gut and Ancient Human Oral Microbiome
(2018)Studies of human–associated microbial communities are increasingly integrated into biological anthropology, allowing us to explore the role of microorganisms in aspects of human evolution, health, and disease. Despite ... -
NOVEL USER-CENTRIC ARCHITECTURES FOR FUTURE GENERATION CELLULAR NETWORKS: DESIGN, ANALYSIS AND PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION
(2019-08)Ambitious targets for aggregate throughput, energy efficiency (EE) and ubiquitous user experience are propelling the advent of ultra-dense networks. Inter-cell interference and high energy consumption in an ultra-dense ... -
Novel, low-cost aluminum (hydr)oxide based materials for fluoride-impacted drinking-water: Batch and column studies
(2016-05)Simple aluminum (hydr)oxides and layered double hydroxides were synthesized using common chemicals and equipment by varying synthesis temperature, concentrations of extra sulfate and citrate, and metal oxide amendments. ... -

The novels of Salvador Garmendia :
(1980)This study is divided into four main parts in which the five novels of Venezuelan Salvador Garmendia are analyzed on the bases of theme, characterization, structure and style. The novels are Los pequenos seres (1959), Los ... -
The novelty response of pulse-type weakly electric fish :
(1985)A series of experiments was performed to investigate various behavioral and neurophysiological aspects of the Novelty Response (NR) of pulse-type weakly electric fish. The NR is a reflexive behavior in which the fish ... -
NOW WHAT? Impact of a Self-Advocacy Strategy on Middle School Students with Disabilities
(2020-05-08)Students with disabilities do not develop self-advocacy skills on their own; however, instruction in these skills is often lacking in special education programs. This lack of self-advocacy skills negatively impacts the ... -
