An Empirical Model for Estimating Remediation Costs at Contaminated Sites
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science + Business Media, Inc., 2005-10)
A model for estimating the remediation costs at contaminated sites is developed, in which the predictor variable is a composite of surface, subsurface, and contaminant risk factors. Calibration of the model is performed ...
Fourth-order compact schemes of a heat conduction problem with Neumann boundary conditions AMS subject classification: 65M06, 65M12
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2007-09)
In this article, a set of fourth-order compact finite difference schemes is developed to solve a heat conduction problem with Neumann boundary conditions. It is derived through the compact difference schemes at all interior ...
Fourth-order compact schemes for solving multidimensional heat problems with Neumann boundary conditions
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2008-01)
In this article, two sets of fourth-order compact finite difference schemes are constructed for solving heat-conducting problems of two or three dimensions, respectively. Both problems are with Neumann boundary conditions. ...
Axisymmetric slosh frequencies of a liquid mass in a circular cylinder
(The American Institute of Physics, 2003-12)
Spectral eigenvalue methods along with some lower-dimensional techniques are used to determine the natural frequencies of a liquid slug in a circular tube. The contact lines are either pinned or governed by a slip coefficient ...
Exploring the Public Understanding of Basic Genetic Concepts
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; National Society of Genetic Counselors, Inc. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-08)
It is predicted that the rapid acquisition of new genetic knowledge and related applications during the next decade will have significant implications for virtually all members of society. Currently, most people get exposed ...
Raman spectral signatures of mouse mammary tissue and associated lymph nodes: normal, tumor and mastitis
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-02)
Raman spectroscopy involves the interaction of light with the molecular vibrations and therefore can provide information about molecular structure, tissue composition and changes in its environment. We explored whether ...
Room temperature ferromagnetism in spin-coated anatase- and rutile-Ti0.95Fe0.05O2 films
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2005-02-02)
Thin films of Ti1−xFexO2 (x = 0 and 0.05) have been prepared on sapphire substrates by the spin-on technique starting from metal–organic precursors. When heat treated in air at 550 and 700 °C respectively, these films ...
Raman spectroscopy can differentiate malignant tumors from normal breast tissue and detect early neoplastic changes in a mouse model
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2008-03)
Raman spectroscopy shows potential in differentiating tumors from normal tissue. We used Raman spectroscopy with near-infrared light excitation to study normal breast tissue and tumors from 11 mice injected with a cancer ...
A robust method for automated background subtraction of tissue fluorescence
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-09)
This paper introduces a new robust method for the removal of background tissue fluorescence from Raman spectra. Raman spectra consist of noise, fluorescence and Raman scattering. In order to extract the Raman scattering, ...
