AMD&ART: performativity and participation in ecological remediation
In this study, I examine and theorize AMD&ART, an artwork devoted to treating polluted water in Vintondale, PA. AMD&ART is much more than simply a water treatment facility, however. Each chapter of this document examines AMD&ART through the lens of a different body of scholarly literature: the …

AMD, analysis of mood dysregulation : a machine learning approach
… pipeline, called Analysis of Mood Dysregulation (AMD), which is used to assess mood or emotional dysregulation caused by underlying psychological disorders, environmental factors, and daily activities. The data is collected by unobtrusive wearable sensors, without pre-calibration, worn by subjects …

Spatial variation of AMD related CO₂ emissions on reclaimed mine spoil
<p>"Carbon dioxide (CO₂) from acid mine drainage (AMD)-carbonate neutralization reactions in reclaimed mine spoils, can intermittently invade homes and structures constructed on or adjacent to these spoils in hazardous and even lethal concentrations (>15%) and rendering them uninhabitable. This …

An integrated approach to AMD mitigation through sulfide removal from tailings
The formation of acid mine drainage (AMD) from the microbial oxidation of sulfides in mineral waste deposits is one of the major challenges facing the mining industry worldwide. Growing environmental awareness and subsequent changes in legislation has focused research in addressing the prevention …

Analytical amd experimental aspects of nonlinear normal modes and nonlinear mode localization
In this work, several aspects of nonlinear normal modes (NNMs) and free and forced nonlinear mode localization are investigated. In the first phase of the work, new asymptotic methodologies based on the concept of NNM are developed in order to compute synchronous responses for two classes of …

Genotypes of SNPs of Key Genes Regulate Susceptibility and Drug Sensitivity to Neovascular AMD
<p>Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), particularly its neovascular form, stands as a leading cause of blindness globally, with its prevalence in our country on a steady rise. This underscores the critical impact of neovascular AMD (nAMD) management on patient quality of life and societal …

The Low Temperature Surface Geochemistry And Kinetics Of Pyrrhotite Weathering: Influences On Acid Mine Drainage (amd)
Investigations were conducted into the mechanisms of pyrrhotite oxidation and dissolution. Analysis of pyrrhotite (Fe{dollar}rmsb7Ssb8{dollar}) near surfaces (50A) identifies 32% Fe(III) and 68% Fe(II), both bonded to sulphide. These results show pyrrhotite has the stoichiometry …

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of an Active Magnetic Damper (AMD) in Damping Subsynchronous Vibrations in a Flexible Rotor
… the effectiveness of an Active Magnetic Damper (AMD) in damping subsynchronous vibrations. An AMD was used to inject a signal simulating a subsynchronous vibration in the rotor, as another AMD was used to perform active control. Two locations of the AMD were considered for each rotor. For the …

In vitro evaluation of Ultraviolet Radiation (UVR) exposure of the Retinal Pigmented Epithelium (RPE) and its relevance to Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
BACKGROUND: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative disease of the retina and is a leading cause of legal blindness in the UK, effecting around 200 million individuals globally in 2020. The role of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure in the pathology of AMD has been debated for …

Systematic analysis of genes expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and identification of candidates for genetic susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
Age related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of visual impairment in the elderly and the major cause of blindness in the developed world. To date, the molecular mechanisms underlying the disease are not well understood although in recent years a primary involvement of the retinal …

Development of an acid mine drainage treatment technology and recovery of minerals
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is known to have negative environmental impacts due to low pH, high concentrations of toxic metals which can pollute freshwater sources. There is need for development of a technology which treats and recover beneficial minerals from AMD. Samples of AMD, water, sediments …
