Molecular Approaches to the Genetics of Obesity: Mapping and Characterization of the Murine Diabetes (db) Gene
Nathan Bahary
Jan 01, 0001
Studies of twins, adopted children, and some human populations indicate that there is a substantial genetic influence on body composition in both children and adults. However, in no single instance in either man or animals is...

The extrudate swell singularity of Phan-Thien-Tanner and Giesekus fluids

The stress singularity for Phan-Thien-Tanner (PTT) and Giesekus viscoelastic fluids is determined for extrudate swell (commonly termed die swell). In the presence of a Newtonian solvent viscosity, the solvent stress dominates...

Numerical study of the stress singularity in stick-slip flow of the Phan-Thien Tanner and Giesekus fluids

Stick-slip flow is a challenging viscoelastic benchmark problem due to the presence of a separation or transition point at the die exit where a sudden change in flow boundary conditions occurs. We present numerical...

Litter removal in a tropical rain forest reduces fine root biomass and production but litter addition has few effects.
C Rodtassana, EVJ Tanner
Nov 01, 2018
Many old-growth lowland tropical rain forests are potentially nutrient limited, and it has long been thought that many such forests maintain growth by recycling nutrients from decomposing litter. We investigated this by...
Polymer Microarrays for the Discovery and Optimization of Robust Optical-Fiber-Based pH Sensors

Polymer microarrays were utilized for the high-throughput screening and discovery of optimal polymeric substrates capable of trapping functional ratiometric fluorescence-based pH sensors. This led to the identification of...

Hurricane disturbance accelerated the thermophilization of a Jamaican montane forest
Thermophilization – changes in community composition towards greater relative abundances of species associated with warmer environments – has been described for plants and animals in many locations around the world. Disturbances...
Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in the Assessment of Dysfunctional Breathing.
Dysfunctional breathing (DB) is a disabling condition which affects the biomechanical breathing pattern and is challenging to diagnose. It affects individuals in many circumstances, including those without underlying disease who...
Compressive sensing method to leverage prior information for submerged target echoes

Reducing data volume and improving signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is of great importance for echoes from submerged targets, affected by serious marine environment noise. The echo from a target is made of its response to the...

Ultrafast laser inscription of an integrated photonic lantern
We used ultrafast laser inscription to fabricate three-dimensional integrated optical transitions that efficiently couple light from a multimode waveguide to a two-dimensional array of single mode waveguides and back. Although...
