Topology and geometry of nontrivial rank-one convex hulls for two-by-two matrices
Continuing earlier work by Szekelyhidi, we describe the topological and geometric structure of so-called T-4-configurations which are the most prominent examples of nontrivial rank-one convex hulls. It turns out that the...

Co-processing of common plastics with pistachio hulls via hydrothermal liquefaction
Mixed, wet, plastic streams containing food waste residues are being increasingly collected at point of use, but are extremely challenging to recycle and are therefore largely sent to landfill. While a challenging waste problem...

The Effects of ACC2 Deletion in Voluntary Wheel Running
Paige Ponzo
Jan 01, 0001
Fatty acids are an important energy source in long duration endurance exercise. From the blood, fatty acids enter cells in the skeletal muscle and enter the mitochondria to participate in metabolic pathways to regenerate...

Towards the efficient computation of effective properties of microstructured materials
An algorithm for partially relaxing multiwell energy densities, such as for materials undergoing martensitic phase transitions, is presented here. The detection of the rank-one convex hull, which describes effective properties...
Methods for Mapping Algal Blooms: Do They Produce Similar Results?
Paige Denney
Jan 01, 0001
Algal blooms occur when there is an overabundance of algae in a freshwater or saltwater body. Algal blooms often have negative effects on human health, the environment, and the economy. They increase during summer months due to...

First- and second-order analysis of resonant waves between adjacent barges
Water wave diffraction by two parallel closely spaced rectangular barges is investigated, to characterise the general problem of LNG offloading from a floating plant into a shuttle tanker. It is well known that large...
Endogenous Neurosteroid Hormone Production and Early Oligodendricyte Development
Paige Winokur
Jan 01, 0001
The field of neuroendocrinology grew immensely with the realization that steroid hormone production is not confined to the adrenal and reproductive glands but also occurs in the central nervous system (CNS). Steroids synthesized...
