(2013-12-04)
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is an important gas-to-liquids technology in the modern energy industry. The current trend is to carry it out in liquid reaction media in order to take advantage of good heat transfer, high ...
Manufacturing and Microstructural Modeling of Geometrically Complex Composite Components Produced by Bladder Assisted Composite Manufacturing (BACM)
(2013-12)
In the first part of the dissertation a new manufacturing method, Bladder Assisted Composite Manufacturing (BACM), to fabricate geometrically complex, hollow polymeric composite parts is presented. The BACM process utilizes ...
Hexavalent Chromium Reduction under Fermentative Conditions with Lactate Stimulated Native Microbial Communities
(PLos One, 2013-12-23)
Microbial reduction of toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) in-situ is a plausible bioremediation strategy in electron-acceptor limited environments. However, higher Cr(VI) may impose stress on syntrophic communities and ...
Channel detection on two-dimensional magnetic recording
(2013)
Two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) coupled with shingled-magnetic recording (SMR) is one of next generation techniques for increasing the hard disk drive (HDD) capacity up to 10 Tbit/in2 in order to meet the growing ...
HOW MEMORABLE SOCIALIZATION MESSAGES FROM WITHIN CULTURAL COMMUNITIES SHAPE ADULT MEANING ATTRIBUTIONS ABOUT WORK: THE CASE OF LEBANESE-AMERICANS
(2013)
This dissertation describes the process by which community messaging obligates members to perform work behaviors in order to achieve full membership status--labeled here the Obligation-based Culturing of Work (OCW). The ...
Online Detection of Outliers for Data Streams
(2013)
In applications, such as Web clicks and environmental monitoring, data are in the form of a stream, each of which is an infinite sequence of data points with explicit or implicit timestamps and has special characteristics, ...
Role of ATP binding and hydrolysis in assembly of MacAB-TolC macrolide transporter
(2013)
In Gram-negative bacteria, intrinsic antibiotic resistance is provided by three component efflux transporters. In Escherichia coli, MacAB-TolC is the first experimentally described ATP-driven tripartite efflux pump responsible ...
From Novice Low to Advanced High: Five Decades of Paradigmatic Shifts in Foreign Language Pedagogy
