Porosity Reduction in the High-Speed Processing of Glass-Fiber Composites by Resin Transfer Molding (RTM)
(Journal of Composite Materials, 2004-02-01)
High-speed processing is essential to achieve lower production cost in the fabrication of fiber-reinforced composites with the current liquid molding practices. A major consequence of increasing the resin injection velocity ...
Plasticity in the Olfactory System: Lessons for the Neurobiology of Memory
(The Neuroscientist, 2004-12-01)
We are rapidly advancing toward an understanding of the molecular events underlying odor transduction, mechanisms of spatiotemporal central odor processing, and neural correlates of olfactory perception and cognition. A ...
“Monotonous Tale”: Legitimacy, Public Relations, and the Shooting of a Public Enemy
(Journal of Communication Inquiry, 2004-04-01)
On April 6, 1939, FBI agents shot and killed America’s “Public Enemy Number One” as he exited a St. Louis hamburger shop. Agents on the scene claimed the man, Ben Dickson, refused to surrender and threatened agents with ...
Effect of Preform Thickness and Volume Fraction on Injection Pressure and Mechanical Properties of Resin Transfer Molded Composites
(Journal of Composite Materials, 2004-06-01)
An experimental study is performed to characterize the effect of the thickness of random preforms on injection pressure and mechanical properties of resin transfer molded (RTM) parts. Center-gated, disk-shaped parts are ...

The Use of Flight Progress Strips While Working Live Traffic: Frequencies, Importance, and Perceived Benefits
(Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 2004-03-01)
The Federal Aviation Administration's effort to automate air traffic control (ATC) requires that the functionality provided today be captured in future systems. We report the first quantitative naturalistic observation of ...
Deliver us from Evil: The Effects of Mortality Salience and Reminders of 9/11 on Support for President George W. Bush
(Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, 2004-09-01)
According to terror management theory, heightened concerns about mortality should intensify the appeal of charismatic leaders. To assess this idea, we investigated how thoughts about death and the 9/11 terrorist attacks ...
Self-Regulated Learning in Web-Based Environments: Instructional Tools Designed to Facilitate Cognitive Strategy Use, Metacognitive Processing, and Motivational Beliefs
(Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2004-01-01)
This study investigated strategies teachers can use to improve students' use of self-regulated learning strategies in a Web-based setting. SRL is defined as a learner's intentional efforts to manage and direct complex ...
Quasi-Experimental Analysis of Targeted Economic Development Programs: Lessons from Florida
(Economic Development Quarterly, 2004-08-01)
The authors highlight three sources of endogeneity bias that typically haunt analyses of local government policies, and offer an empirical methodology for estimating program impacts given such concerns. They investigate ...
Improving Supervisor Evaluations Through the Use of Self Determination Contracts
(Career Development for Exceptional Individuals, 2004-10-01)
Supervisor perceptions of employee competence in areas of work, social, and personal demands of the job often determine success or failure for the supported employee. This study involved three workers with disabilities who ...
