Entomotoxicological and Thermal Factors Affecting the Development of Forensically Important Flies
Studies were conducted on the effects of alcohol and opioids on the development of forensically important flies. In addition different methods of degree-day calculations and development thresholds were used to determine the effects on PMI estimates. The first study determined the effects of ethanol …

Stress response and habituation as influenced by nutritional and thermal factors in dwarf and normal chickens
Experiments were conducted to explore physiological, pathological, and immunological aspects of stress in chickens. Mechanisms of habituation and their association with adrenal steroids were also studied. Degree of stress experienced during perinatal and neonatal stages was evaluated. In both …

Negative Thermal Expansion in Zincblende Structure: an EXAFS study of CdTe
… In this work an accurate evaluation of the bond thermal expansion, parallel and perpendicular MSRDs and distribution asymmetry of the first shell of CdTe has been made, obtaining a good agreement between two different procedures of the data analysis (i) ratio method (ii) FEFF6-FEFFIT method. The …

Development of a high power density rotor
… rotordynamics. Similarly, the design creates thermal challenges, of which extracting heat from a small geometry, and the difficulty of estimating windage losses because of the high speed and large diameter, are two. These challenges have been addressed through analytical design and a hardware …
