The Life Cycle Management and Intellectual Capital factors that influence sustainability integration in organisational processes
… publications on Life Cycle Management (LCM) as a business management approach to improve sustainability performance, this research explored LCM as a promising research area that could help identify the factors that influence the integration of sustainability aspects into organisational …

The effect of testing conditions on lost circulation materials' performance in simulated fractures
… incident.</p><p>Lost circulation materials (LCM) are regularly added to the drilling fluids with an expectation of plugging the flow path. Due to the difficulties of testing and monitoring LCM sealing processes in the field, LCM evaluation in the laboratory is often used to prove and assure …

DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING BY MOBILE ROBOTS: COMPUTATIONAL POWER AND ALGORITHM DESIGN
The Look-Compute-Move (LCM) model is a theoretical framework widely used to formalize and study distributed systems of mobile autonomous robots, namely swarms of robots. Generally, the LCM model assumes robots are anonymous, indistinguishable, homogeneous, and punctiform entities acting on the …

Bayesian Latent Class Models
The latent class model (LCM) is a statistical method that introduces a set of latent categorical variables. The main advantage of LCM is that conditional on latent variables, the manifest variables are mutually independent of each other. In some scenarios, the LCM makes the modeling or computation …

Real-Time Software Transactional Memory: Contention Managers, Time Bounds, and Implementations
… The contention managers are called ECM, RCM, LCM, PNF, and FBLT. RCM and ECM resolve conflicts using fixed and dynamic priorities of real-time tasks, respectively, and are naturally intended to be used with the fixed priority (e.g., G-RMA) and dynamic priority (e.g., G-EDF) multicore real-time …

ERES Methodology and Approximate Algebraic Computations
… Divisor (GCD) and the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of a set of polynomials are challenging problems that arise from several applications in applied mathematics and engineering. Several methods have been proposed for the computation of the GCD of polynomials using tools and notions either from …

Defining Gene Expression in Normal Human Epidermal Keratinocytes and Melanocytes: A Prerequisite for Understanding Hyperplastic and Neoplastic Pathology
… epidermis, and 3) laser-capture microdissected (LCM) epidermis. For melanocytes, the precursor cell of melanoma, the attempt was made to isolate a more physiologically relevant sample source than that of the forced in vitro proliferating phenotype. Our results suggested that the best definition …

Effect of vacuum level on the vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding process
Liquid composite molding (LCM) processes have become increasingly popular during the past five decades for the production of complex composite parts. Resin transfer molding (RTM) and structural reaction injection molding (SRIM) are the most widely used LCM processes. These two processes have the …

Discourse constructions in English: meaning, form and hierarchies: A study from the point of view of the Lexical Constructional Model
… of the Lexical Constructional Model (LCM), developed by professors Ruiz de Mendoza and Mairal (LCM; Ruiz de Mendoza and Mairal 2008, 2011, Mairal and Ruiz de Mendoza 2008, 2009). More specifically, this dissertation involves the development of the discourse level of the LCM from a …

Wrinkling behaviour of biaxial non-crimp fabrics during preforming
… through automated liquid composite moulding (LCM). Furthermore, the defects that occur during the initial preforming stage of LCM, notably wrinkles, are a key obstacle preventing automation and adoption of LCM, because wrinkles significantly compromise the component performance, and because …

Leadership and Ethics Analysis of Liuzhou City Museum
… ethics knowledge to analyze Liuzhou City Museum (LCM), I emphasize attention to grow ethics culture in effective stewardship and create accountability mechanism to reduce ethics risk. And I also use SILEC moral decision making model to analyze the issue about whether to deduct wage when employees …

Improvements in Liquid Composite Moulding through Assessment of Process Parameters
Liquid Composite Moulding (LCM) describes a family of manufacturing processes utilised for the manufacture of fibre reinforced plastics. With a large number of variables and process parameters requiring active measurement and control, achieving high quality simultaneously with low cost and …

Spatially mapped gene expression analysis from tissue
… In addition, laser capture microdissection (LCM) followed by RT-qPCR of the locally captured tissue has also been used to study these spatial variations at a molecular level. But, all of the above techniques are plagued with different issues such as low sensitivity in the case of ISH, low …

Passive Balancing of Switching Transients between Paralleled SiC MOSFETs
… on voltage stress. Common-source inductance (Lcm) is effective in dynamic balancing, but at the expense of higher switching loss. It is not considered in power module application because Kelvin connection is normally applied. However, wire bond inside the package of discrete MOSFETs and part …

Sex Differences in Cancer Cachexia and a Novel Mitochondrial Target for Cancer-Induced Muscle Wasting
… of OPA1 (OPA1 TG) in LLC-conditioned media (LCM) and LLC-induced CC. 72 hours of LCM intervention induced smaller myotubes, which was normalized by BGP-15 treatment and this effect appeared to be driven by suppressed inflammatory cytokine and autophagic-lysosomal pathway (ALP) activity at the …

Automatic Software Performance Optimization on Modern Architectures
… publicly available algorithms, FP_Growth, LCM and Eclat, were extensively evaluated using synthetic data sets. The results of these evaluations were used to train a support-vector machine (SVM) prediction system, which is then used at runtime to predict the best mining algorithm for …

EFFECT OF NICOTINE ON LUNG S-ADENOSYLMETHIONINE AND PNEUMOCYSTIS PNEUMONIA DEVELOPMENT
… Using laser capture microdissection (LCM), we collected samples of lung alveolar regions (site of infection) and respiratory epithelium for controls. We found nicotine to cause increased ODC activity in alveolar regions but not airway epithelium; we conclude that tissue specificity …

Inclusion of leakage into life cycle management of products involving plastic as a material choice
… limitation during the life cycle management (LCM) of products destined for regions where they are likely to be dumped or littered. This thesis investigates the feasibility and influence of using product specific leakage rates as a proxy indicator for potential marine environmental impacts, to …
