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 ... -
NUCLEAR FACTOR Y Transcription Factors Have Both Opposing and Additive Roles in ABA-Mediated Seed Germination
(PLos One, 2013-03-19)In the model organism Arabidopsis thaliana the heterotrimeric transcription factor NUCLEAR FACTOR Y (NF-Y) has been shown to play multiple roles in facilitating plant growth and development. Although NF-Y itself represents ... -
NUCLEAR FACTOR Y, subunit A (NF-YA) proteins positively regulate flowering and act through FLOWERING LOCUS T
(2016-12-15)Photoperiod dependent flowering is one of several mechanisms used by plants to initiate the developmental transition from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. The NUCLEAR FACTOR Y (NF-Y) transcription factors are ... -
NUCLEAR FACTOR Y, Subunit C (NF-YC) Transcription Factors Are Positive Regulators of Photomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana
(PLos Genetics, 2016-09-29)Author Summary Light perception is critically important for the fitness of plants in both natural and agricultural settings. Plants not only use light for photosynthesis, but also as a cue for proper development. As a ... -
Nurturing the Rural Teacher Experience: Lessons from the United States
(2009)Rural places and schools are diverse, presenting challenges for teaching and for understanding the needs of rural teachers. The recent NCES Report on Status of Education in Rural America indicates "no measurable differences" ... -
Nutritional Basis for Colonization Resistance by Human Commensal Escherichia coli Strains HS and Nissle 1917 against E. coli O157:H7 in the Mouse Intestine
(PLos One, 2013-01-17)Escherichia coli is a single species consisting of many biotypes, some of which are commensal colonizers of mammals and others that cause disease. Humans are colonized on average with five commensal biotypes, and it is ... -

Observations on Infrared Radiation at the Workplace
(Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 1980-10-01)A discussion of the use of radiant heating in sedentary workplaces is presented. The advantages of the approach with respect to energy conservation are emphasized along with accompanying effects on worker comfort and ... -

The Oklahoma PetaStore: A Business Model for Big Data on a Small Budget
(2014-05-28)ABSTRACT In the era of Big Data, research productivity can be highly sensitive to the availability of large scale, long term archival storage. Unfortunately, many mass storage systems are prohibitively expensive at ... -

On reflected and transmitted stress waves at an elastic-plastic boundary
(The Journal of Strain Analysis for Engineering Design, 1980-01-01)A theoretical analysis for the reflected and transmitted waves at an elastic-plastic boundary is presented. The basis of this analysis is the linear elastic wave theory in a hard load-bar and the one-dimensional, ... -
On Rehumanizing Pleistocene People of the Western Hemisphere
(2021)Since the emergence of the niche in Folsom, New Mexico, in the late 1920s, peopling archaeology has sought to understand the earliest human occupants of the Western Hemisphere. Three generations of practitioners have made ... -
On the Choice of Shear Correction Factor in Sandwich Structures
(Journal of Sandwich Structures and Materials, 2002-01-01)The first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is a relatively simple tool that has been found to yield accurate results in the non-local problems of sandwich structures, such as buckling and free vibration. However, a ... -
On the geography of activity: productivity but not temperature constrains discovery rates by ectotherm consumers
(2019)Consumer activity—the rate that individuals move through and discover items in their environment—can constrain population interactions and ecosystem services. We introduce a model that assumes consumer activity is co‐limited ... -
