101 Eddings, EricModified CPD Model for Coal Devolatilization at UCTT ConditionsTo study coal pyrolysis behavior at underground coal thermal treatment (UCTT) conditions, a modified CPD (M-CPD) model was developed and evaluated using two scales of experiments as well as two different coals, Utah Sufco and Illinois #6. Compared with the original CPD model, three major aspects wer...Coal; pyrolysis; modeling; underground heating2019
102 Farmer, Colleen G.; Carrier, David R.Integration of ventilation and locomotion in archosaursMovements of the pelvis have recently been found to contribute to ventilation in both crocodilians and birds. Alligators have a kinetic pelvis in which the ischiopubic and ischiotruncus muscles rotate the pubic bones ventrally to increase abdominal volume and thereby facilitate inspiration. In birds...Archosaurs; Theropods; Integration; Ventilation; Pelvic aspiration; Cuirassal breathing2000

107 Brunvand, Erik L.Low latency self-timed flow-through FIFOsSelf-timed flow-through FIFOs are constructed easily using only a single C-element as control for each stage of the FIFO. Throughput can be very high in this type of FIFO as the communication required to send new data to the FIFO is local to only the first element of the FIFO. Circuit density can ...1995
108 Tiwari, AshutoshFerromagnetism in Cu-doped ZnO films: role of charge carriersWe report the observation of room temperature ferromagnetism in Cu-doped (5%) ZnO films grown on c-plane sapphire substrates.

110 Mishchenko, EugeneGeneration of spin current by Coulomb dragCoulomb drag between two quantum wires is exponentially sensitive to the mismatch of their electronic densities. The application of a magnetic field can compensate this mismatch for electrons of opposite spin directions in different wires. The resulting enhanced momentum transfer leads to the conv...Spin current; Coulomb drag; Quantum wires2006-12
111 Capecchi, Mario R.Establishment of mammalian cell lines containing multiple nonsense mutations and functional suppressor tRNA genes.We describe the generation of mammalian cell lines carrying amber suppressor genes. Nonsense mutants in the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV tk) gene, the Escherichia coli xanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (Eco-gpt) gene and the aminoglycoside 3' phosphotransferase gene of the Tn...Cercopithecus aethiops; Escherichia coli; Xenopus1982-11-30
112 Whitty, Kevin J.Physical phenomena of char-slag transition in pulverized coal gasificationPerformance of entrained-flow coal gasifiers is in large part dictated by the burnout behavior of coal particles. In particular, the transition from porous, reactive char to molten, low reactive slag affects overall coal conversion. In this work, the physical phenomena associated with char?slag tran...2012
113 Blair, David F.Metal centers of cytochrome c oxidase: structures and interactionsStudies directed toward the elucidation of the structures of the metal centers in cytochrome c oxidase are reviewed. Progress towards an understanding of the interactions between these centers and their spatial distributions within the protein will also be presented. Our studies are based primarily...1983
