Mallon, Ronald | 'Race': normative, not metaphysical or semantic | In recent years, there has been a flurry of work on the metaphysics of race. While it is now widely accepted that races do not share robust, biobehavioral essences, opinions differ over what, if anything, race is. Recent work has been divided between three apparently quite different answers. A varie... | 2006 | |

Johnston, Susan S. | 20 ways to maximize the use of single switch technology with students with severe disabilites | Students with severe physical and/or cognitive disabilities may find it very difficult to engage in activities in their environment. Single switch technology can provide the means for adapting activities to meet student's diverse needs (Brett, 1995). Single switches can be used as tools for promoti... | Single switch; Severe disabilities; Assistive technology; Disabled students | 2006 |

Mathews, V. John | A stable adaptive Hammerstein filter employing partial orthogonalization of the input signals | Abstract-This paper presents an algorithm that adapts the parameters of a Hammerstein system model. Hammerstein systems are nonlinear systems that contain a static nonlinearity cascaded with a linear system. In this paper, the static nonlinearity is modeled using a polynomial system, and the linear ... | 2006 | |

Symko, Orest George | Acoustic approach to thermal management: miniature thermoacoustic engines | An acoustic approach to thermal management in electronics can be efficient and it can be directly interfaced with electronic devices. It is based on two types of thermoacoustic heat engines, which are being developed for microcircuit applications. One type of device, the prime mover, converts heat t... | Thermoacoustic engines; Thermal management | 2006 |

Armentrout, Peter B. | Activation of methane by gold cations: guided ion beam and theoretical studies | The potential energy surface for activation of methane by the third-row transition metal cation, Au+, is studied experimentally by examining the kinetic energy dependence of this reaction using guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometry. A flow tube ion source produces Au+ primarily in its 1S0 (5d10) ... | 2006 | |

Dailey, Andrew T. | Agreement between orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons regarding a new algorithm for the treatment of thoracolumbar injuries: a multicenter reliability study | Introduction: Considerable variability exists in the management of thoracolumbar (TL) spine injuries. Although there are many influences, one significant factor may be the treating surgeon's specialty and training (ie, orthopedic surgery vs. neurosurgery). Our objective was to assess the agreement ... | Thoracolumbar injuries; Rating; Classification; TLISS; Neurosurgery; Interspeciality reliability | 2006 |

Stevens, Kenneth | Algorithms for MIS vector generation and pruning | Ignoring the effect of simultaneous switching for logic gates causes silicon failures for high performance microprocessor designs. The main reason to omit this effect is the run time penalty and potential over-conservatism. Run times are directly proportional to the vector sizes. Efficient algorithm... | 2006 | |

Coley, Phyllis D.; Lokvam, John; Kursar, Thomas A. | Allelochemic function for a primary metabolite: the case of L-tyrosine hyper-production in Inga umbellifera (Fabaceae) | Young leaves of tropical forest trees experience far higher herbivory pressure than mature leaves of the same species. Selection on young leaves has led to diverse forms of defense chemical expression. Though most allelochemicals are secondary metabolites, allelochemic function for a primary metabol... | 5-amino-4-hydroxy-pentanoic acid; Panama; Barro Colorado Island; Fabaceae; Inga umbellifera; Primary metabolite; Heliothis virescens | 2006 |

Miller, Jan D. | Anisotropic character of talc surfaces as revealed by streaming potential measurements, atomic force microscopy, and molecular dynamics simulations | A study of the interfacial properties of the basal plane and the edge surfaces of talc is described in this paper. The isoelectric-point measured at the two different crystallographic planes by the streaming potential method was found to be similar and exists at about pH 3.0. In the case of the edg... | Streaming potential; Scanning electron microscope; Atomic force microscope | 2006 |

Dailey, Andrew T.; Brodke, Darrel S.; Bachus, Kent N. | Anterior cervical fixation: analysis of load-sharing and stability with use of static and dynamic plates | Background: Anterior plates provide stability following decompression and fusion of the cervical spine. Various plate designs have emerged, and they include static plates with fixed-angle screws, rotationally dynamic plates that allow the screws to toggle in the plate, and translationally dynamic pl... | Anterior cervical fixation; Load-sharing; Stability; Static plates; Dynamic plates | 2006 |

Hunt, Steven C.; Adams, Ted; Hopkins, Paul N.; Hunt, Steven C. | ATGL gene is associated with free fatty acids, triglycerides, and type 2 diabetes | Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) was recently described to predominantly perform the initial step in triglyceride hydrolysis and therefore seems to play a pivotal role in the lipolytic catabolism of stored fat in adipose tissue. In the first study investigating genetic variations within the ATGL g... | Diabete, Type 2; ATGL; Fat; Triglycerides | 2006 |

Miller, Jan D. | Atomic force microscopy investigation of interaction forces between polyethylene and asphaltene surfaces | Many petroleum-derived asphalts used for road construction exhibit poor rheological properties. These properties of asphalt can be improved by addition of various polymer fillers to the asphalt blend. Recycled polyolefines, especially polyethylene and polypropylene have been used as the asphalt mo... | Asphalt; Rheology; Polyolefins | 2006 |

Yaffe, Joanne | Behaviorism, social learning, and exchange theory | Behaviorism focuses on learning and the way in which behavior is shaped by its antecedent conditions and consequences. In rejecting mentalistic constructs such as mind, consciousness, and other internal processes, behaviorism stresses the importance of studying observable behavior rather than pheno... | 2006 | |

Diamond, Lisa | Careful what you ask for: reconsidering feminist epistemology and autobiographical narrative in research on sexual identity development | Feminist theory has had an undoubtable but inconsistent influence on developmental psychology. Although feminist perspectives have productively challenged developmental models centered on male experiences (Gilligan 1982) and have called attention to socialization practices that reproduce systemati... | Feminism; Epistemology; Autobiography | 2006 |
