Alternatives to the Calculus: Nonstandard Analysis and Smooth Infinitesimal Analysis
… thesis—the thesis that nonstandard analysis (NSA) and smooth infinitesimal analysis (SIA) are alternatives to the standard approach to the calculus. In doing so, we outline the historical approaches to the calculus, the standard approach to the calculus, and two nonstandard approaches, namely …

Internal Set Theory and Euler's Introductio in Analysin Infinitorum
… Robinson's celebrated Nonstandard Analysis (NSA); in particular, we will use Internal Set Theory, Edward Nelson's distinctive version of NSA. We will specifically examine Euler's proofs of the Euler formula, the Euler product, the Wallis product and the divergence of the harmonic series. All …

An uncertainty model of a non-ideal open area test site for electromagnetic measurement
… In this research a normalized site attenuation (NSA) measurement uncertainty model was derived. A 3-m non-ideal OATS has been designed and built. The suitability of the location to build the OATS has been evaluated. To evaluate the measurement uncertainty in the site and the closeness of the site …

Investigation of a trapezoidal microchannel for hydrodynamic detachment of cells or biomolecules.
Fluid-based non-specific adsorption (NSA) methods and cell adhesion studies both use hydrodynamic forces to detach biomolecules or cells. To address the limitations in current microfluidic detachment assays and NSA removal methods, a trapezoidal microchannel was investigated as a hydrodynamic …

Thioredoxin-1 Inhibition Promotes MLKL Activation: Biochemical Insights Into a Suppressor of the Necroptotic Pathway
… of the specific MLKL inhibitor Necrosulfonamide (NSA) was exploited as a strategy for identifying novel MLKL interacting proteins. Immunoprecipitation of NSA crosslinked MLKL complexes followed by mass spectrometric analysis revealed Thioredoxin-1, an essential cytosolic thiol oxidoreductase, to …
