Multifrequency Scintillation in the Polar Caps
<p>In the ionosphere, plasma density structures with scales sizes ranging from a few centimeters to hundreds of kilometers are capable of modifying the phase and amplitude of a radio signal in a rapid random manner in a process called scintillation. The Coherent Electromagnetic Radio Tomography …

Edge caps for reinforcing composite laminates
… from 24% to 8% with the addition of edge caps. The predicted failure load which is calculated with the finite element results is 10%. lower than the actual failure load. For both the capped and the uncapped laminates, actual failure loads are much lower than those predicted using classical …

Funktionelle Analyse von Isoformen der CAPS-Proteinfamilie
… die Freisetzung vermitteln und regulieren. CAPS ist ein solches Protein, welches als putativer Regulator der Transmittersekretion aus PC12-Zellen identifiziert wurde. Neben der Pleckstrin-homologen Domäne besitzt CAPS (145 kDa) eine Domäne mit Homologie zu dem Primingfaktor Munc13-1 (MHD1). …

Emission trading with absolute and intensity caps
… for the Annex B countries that have absolute caps. However, we need to expand the emission trading to cover developing countries in order to achieve the maximum benefits from both higher environment quality and lower abatement cost. In this sense, the emission trading scheme at a global level …

Development of internally redundant steel box straddle caps
Steel box straddle caps are an efficient solution for bridges located in congested urban environments when using a conventional pier is not possible due to the presence of intersecting roads beneath the bridge. Using steel box girders offers fabrication and erection advantages and high structural …

Clinical Assessment of Pragmatics (CAPs): A Validation Study
… ages 14 to 16 years old, were administered the CAPs to comparatively analyze their receptive and expressive pragmatic language performance. Study results revealed that this instrument provides a valid and reliable comprehensive measure of pragmatic language skills. Both test-retest and …

Break-even volatility for caps, floors and swaptions
… break-even volatility. It is found that several caps and swaptions are trading at volatilities that differ significantly from their break-even volatility estimates. Furthermore, through an investigation into the calibration of the Lognormal Forward-LIBOR Market Model to break-even volatilities, …

Energy Use Caps under Scrutiny: An Ecological Economics Perspective
… easily reachable through implementing energy caps for the residential sectors, I scrutinized more deeply the third goal: reaching just distribution. I aimed to reveal the interlinkages between residential energy use and social justice as well as how a potential residential energy capping …

THE SHEAR BEHAVIOUR OF THE REINFORCED CONCRETE FOUR-PILE CAPS
… of 2-way spanning reinforced concrete pile caps from bending theory-based empirical design formulae. This causes designers difficulty to predict an accurate shear capacity of the pile cap. The inherently empirical character of the formulae is due to the fact that the formulae have been …

Investigation of the Resistance of Pile Caps to Lateral Loading
… of piles coupled together by concrete pile caps. These pile caps, which are often massive and deeply buried, would be expected to provide significant resistance to lateral loads. However, practical procedures for computing the resistance of pile caps to lateral loads have not been developed, …

Towards structural characterisation of ciliary rootlets, ciliary caps and intraflagellar transport
… densities, IFT-turnaround and the ciliary caps. In interphase cells, centriole-pairs are connected by striated fibrils composed of the coiled-coil protein rootletin along with CEP68, CCDC102B and potentially other proteins. Upon ciliogenesis, the centriole-pairs template the ciliary …

Seismic Performance of Prestressed Concrete Piles In Cip Reinforced Concrete Pile Caps
… in cast-in-place (CIP) reinforced concrete bent caps subjected to seismic loading is not well understood. Current standard SCDOT connection details require the plain embedment of the pile into the bent cap one pile diameter with a construction tolerance of ± 6 inches. To better understand the …

Volatility transformation in a multi-curve setting applied to caps and swaptions
… framework. The market quotes available for caps/floors and swaptions often assume a particular payment tenor, for example swaption volatilities are typically quoted assuming payment legs of six months. As such, if one wanted to price an identical swaption based on payment legs of three …

Accounting for roll-over risk in the pricing of caps and floors
… objective of this work is to price XIBOR-based caps and floors under a framework which accounts for roll-over risk. This reformulation of interest-rate derivatives is achieved using Fourier Transform methods as well as Monte Carlo simulations for comparison. We found that the results obtained …

The Connection Behavior of Precast Prestressed Piles to Cast-In-Place Bent Caps
… precast prestressed piles to cast in place bent caps. This detail is constructed by plainly embedding piles to a specified depth into bent caps. Typically in regions of high seismicity such as South Carolina connections between these two elements require special detailing which increases both the …

Small-signal Analysis and Design of Constant-on-time V2 Control for Ceramic Caps
… devices, low-ESR capacitors such as ceramic caps are preferred due to small size and small output voltage ripple requirement. However, for the converters with ceramic caps, the conventional V2 control suffers from the sub-harmonic oscillation due to the lagging phase of the capacitor voltage …
