Hydrocarbon occurrences within the La Popa Basin: Potential source rocks, thermal maturation, and hydrocarbon migration along the La Popa salt weld, La Popa Basin, Ne Mexico
… the presence of hydrocarbons along the La Popa salt weld, reinforcing the idea that salt welds significantly affect the migration pathways of hydrocarbons. Geochemical testing of samples collected along the length of the weld indicate that at least some of this material is not in situ, but …

Occurrenceand distribution of fish parasites of potential threat to the acquaculture sector along the okavango river, Namibia
… infested fish were found in zones 3 (Mbambi to Popa Falls) and 4 (Popa Falls to Kwetze). This study could be a useful management tool for fisheries researchers in the aquaculture industry. In conclusion some protozoans and parasitic crustaceans, if found in high abundance, may cause a threat to …

Liquid fuel transport into the cylinder in spark ignition engines
… engine a Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer (POPA) and a Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) technique were used to analyze in-cylinder liquid fuel droplets. From the measurements four major mechanisms of liquid fuel transport into the cylinder were identified using open and closed valve …

Investigation of conventional and unconventional protein secretion using galectin-3
Protein secretion is an essential process in cell biology. The conventional secretion pathway is well known, and involves proteins with a signal sequence being directed into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Once in the lumen of the ER, proteins are trafficked through the Golgi and remain separate …

Cultural Stereotypes: From Dracula's Myth to Contemporary Diasporic Productions
This study is focused on a highly topical theme, which belongs to the pluralist practice of cultural studies, and aims at investigating a remarkable phenomenon of identity-shaping and cross-cultural exchange. Starting from an analysis of Dracula as the epitomized image of the Balkans (and of …

Computational studies of cerebellar cortical circuitry
This thesis includes two directions of research regarding the function and physiology of the cerebellum. One direction was concentrated on the cerebellum involvement in motor control during a visually guided tracking task performed by non-human primates. The second effort aimed to characterize the …

On Completely Bounded Multipliers of the Fourier Algebra A(G)
In the last chapter of this exposition, we introduce the uniformly complete quotient space UCQ(G) of a locally compact group G, which is the analogous object of UCB( G&d14; ) in the non-amenable case. It is shown that the operator space dual UCQ(G)* is a completely contractive Banach algebra and we …

Provable and practical location privacy for vehicular and mobile systems
In recent years, there has been a rapid evolution of location-based vehicular and mobile services (e.g., electronic tolling, congestion pricing, traffic statistics, insurance pricing, location-based social applications), which promise tremendous benefits to users. Unfortunately, most such systems …

Building practical systems that compute on encrypted data
Theft of confidential data is prevalent. In most applications, confidential data is stored at servers. Thus, existing systems naturally try to prevent adversaries from compromising these servers. However, experience has shown that adversaries still find a way to break in and steal the data. This …

Gallium nitride MEMS resonators
As a wide band-gap semiconductor, with large breakdown fields and saturation velocities, Gallium Nitride (GaN) has been increasingly used in high-power, high-frequency electronics and monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs). At the same time, GaN also has excellent electromechanical …

The Carbon Density and Species Diversity of Myanmar's Tropical Forests
… on forest inventory data I collected at the Popa Mountain Park, I evaluate biophysical influences on ACD on tree species composition and carbon. Elevation positively correlates with ACD, but species richness does not. Non-Metric Multidimensional Scaling analysis reveals that elevation is the …

"Ceausescu's Orphans": Narrating the Crisis of Romanian International Child Adoption
<p>Taking a constructivist approach, this study employs content and narrative analysis methods to study the politics of Romanian International Adoption policy. The study focuses on the crisis period of 2001-2004 which ended with a ban on Romanian International Adoption. Policy discourse is examined …
