Bound antioxidants in elastomers
… free phenols will react to give high yields of bound antioxidant. The concentration of the bound antioxidants are estimated by I.R. spectroscopy after complete extraction. Monsanto rheometer studies show that in many cases the crosslinking reaction of CR and ECH rubbers which take place through …

Downwinders and Edge/Bound poems
… Kodak Park. Additionally, I have included "edge/bound" poems, which refers to a poetic form I invented in August 2006. The form of these poems is dictated by a strict constraint: the last letter of the first word, and each subsequent word, must be the same as the first letter of the next word. …

Soliton interactions and bound states
… is concerned with soliton interactions and bound states. We consider a on-topological soliton in (1 + 1) dimensions and topological models in (2 + 1) and (3 + 1) dimensions. In chapter 2 we consider Qballs, which are non-topological solitons, in (1 + 1) dimensions. Here we note the …

Resource Bound Guarantees via Programming Languages
… its input and, more importantly, in which upper bounds on resource requirements can be inferred with certainty. Ensuring that software meets its resource constraints is important in a number of domains, most prominently in hard real-time systems and safety critical systems where failing to meet …

Biosensor design utilizing particle-bound enzymes
… approach, this supports the use of particle-bound reagents in the development of point-of-care tests. To make use of the particle-bound reagents, a novel falling particle biosensor design was explored in this thesis, where the sedimentation of the silica particles was used to drive mixing in …

Lower bound techniques for data structures
We describe new techniques for proving lower bounds on data-structure problems, with the following broad consequences: * the first [omega](lg n) lower bound for any dynamic problem, improving on a bound that had been standing since 1989; * for static data structures, the first separation between …

An Analysis of the Leader Behaviors of Career-Bound and Place-Bound Public School Superintendents in Iowa
… are defined in the literature. Place-bound superintendents are promoted from within their present systems; career-bound superintendents are elected from outside. This study was made to determine whether the two career types exhibit different leader behaviors. The problem. The problem …

Examining Japanese tourists' U.S.-Bound Travel Constraints
… such as Japan, are facing different outbound travel constraints from their western partners, and if constraint research in the Asian context will generate results inconsistent with findings from previous research. This study aims to explore the constraint attributes that prevent Japanese …

Biogenesis of Membrane-Bound and Secreted Immunoglobulins
<p>The specificity of the immune response to antigen was first appreciated by the study of serum immunoglobulins (Igs). The subpopulation of lymphoid cells that synthesize these molecules are so defined as members of the B lineage; the end-stage cell type of this lineage is the plasma cell. The …

Lower bound resource requirements for machine intelligence
… effort is to provide an estimate on the lower bound resource requirements for machine intelligence. A working definition of machine intelligence for purposes of this research is provided, along with definitions of an abstract architecture, workflow, and performance model. Combined together, …

Theoretical models of many-quark bound states
… to calculate the properties of many-fermion bound states. The quark implementation of MFD (MFDq) was extensively tested on the 2-body problem against the established nucleon implementation of MFD (MFDn). We were able to perform a limited set of self-consistency checks of MFDq in the 4-body …

Synthesis and Evaluation of Bound Thiol Antioxidants
… (TEPA). The concentrations of bound antioxidants were estimated by an infra-red technique after exhaustive extraction. The reactions of 4-mercaptoacetamidodiphenyl amine (MADPA) and 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl mercaptan (BHBM) with natural and styrene-butadiene rubbers …

High Molecular Weight and Polymer-Bound Antioxidants
Studies in model system and in polypropylene, of a series of sulphur antioxidants of increasing molecular weight and containing the phenolic moiety have furnished evidence for the importance of both the intrinsic antioxidant activity of the additives as well as those of their physical attributes. …

Microwave Spectroscopy of Weakly Bound Molecular Complexes
… high resolution microwave spectra of weakly bound molecular complexes are discussed. These complexes, consisting of a polar linear molecule and a rare gas atom or other molecule as the bound partner, have binding energies ranging from 0.2 to 6.0 kcal/mole. Formation of the complexes is …

New methods for branch-and-bound algorithms
Branch-and-bound (B&B) algorithms, and extensions such as branch-and-price (B&P) are powerful tools for optimization. These algorithms are used in a wide variety of settings, and thus it is beneficial to develop new techniques to improve the performance of B&B algorithms that are independent of the …
