Static and dynamic behavior of multiphase porous media: Governing equations and finite element implementation.
(2001)
The mechanical behavior of porous media such as geomaterials is largely governed by the interactions of the solid skeleton (or grains) with the fluids existing in the pores. These interactions occur through the interfaces ...
Understanding and managing others: The impact of discriminative facility upon social influence.
(2001)
The results of two studies provided support for the importance of being sensitive to situational nuances (i.e., discriminative facility), especially when interpreting others' negative behaviors. Study 1 empirically clarified ...
When and Why Do Controllers Mark Flight Progress Strips? a Look at Live Traffic
(Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2001-10-01)
Subject matter experts were employed to record observations of flight progress strip marking across 5 en route ATC facilities. Approximately 220 hours of ATC observations were recorded establishing a group of high ...
Unexpected participants in democracy: Refuge, community, and activism in a congregation of the Metropolitan Community Church.
(2001)
The findings indicate that this denomination offers a unique contribution by empowering certain individuals who would otherwise not participate in the gay liberation movement. The ethnographic study suggests that in more ...
Heat integration across plants in the total site.
(2001)
As a step forward in closing this gap, the purpose of this thesis is to discuss heat integration across plants in the "total site". This integration can be accomplished either directly using process streams or indirectly ...
The effect of spatial heterogeneity and environmental gradients on vegetation in a semi-arid environment: Black Mesa, Cimarron County, Oklahoma.
(2001)
This research focuses on landscape level patterns in a semi-arid environment, which consists of mesas and canyons in northwest Oklahoma. Among the state's most botanically unique and topographically complex areas, it lies ...
The relationship among language, classroom discourse, cognitive development, achievement, and vocabulary of developmental mathematics students.
(2001)
The purpose of this research was to examine how focusing on language and classroom discourse impacts the cognitive development, achievement, and vocabulary development of college developmental mathematics students. Two ...
Estimation of Doppler and polarimetric variables for weather radars.
(2001)
A method for estimation of Doppler spectrum and its moments as well as several polarimetric variables on pulsed weather radars is presented. This scheme operates on oversampled echoes in range, that is samples of in-phase ...
The concept of brand identity in relation to students' intent-to-persist.
(2001)
The partial correlation findings revealed that all the six brand identity attributes had a positive correlation with students' ratings of their academic and social integration. Amongst the student characteristics, gender, ...
The structure and function of YPD1, a histidine-containing phosphotransfer protein from yeast.
(2001)
Finally, through molecular modeling and structural comparisons, a general model of how YPD1 and response regulator domains might interact was proposed. It seems likely that YPD1 binds to response regulator domains through ...
