Chachas, Mary | In Keith Barney's territory, it's what you can do that counts | One of eight children, Barney remembers that he was very lonely and somewhat sad during his hospital stay. "Nobody sat me down and told me I was paralyzed," he recalled. "They were ambiguous with the information they gave me and sort of let me figure it out by myself. At 14, I wanted to believe one ... | Rehabilitation Therapy; Wheelchairs; Sports | 2001-09 |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Fall speed measurement and high-resolution multi-angle photography of hydrometeors in free fall | We describe here a new instrument for imaging hydrometeors in free fall. The Multi-Angle Snowflake Camera (MASC) captures high-resolution photographs of hydrometeors from three angles while simultaneously measuring their fall speed. Based on the stereoscopic photographs captured over the two months ... | 2012-01-01 | |

Lohse, Keith R. | Modeling Longitudinal Outcomes: A Contrast of Two Methods | Background: Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) is frequently used to model longitudinal data but does not appropriately account for within-person correlations over time, does not explicitly model time, and cannot flexibly handle missing data. In contrast, mixed-effects regression address... | mixed-effects regression; ANOVA; learning; development | |

Kriesel, John D.; Spruance, Spotswood L. | Treatment of herpes simplex labialis. | Recurrent herpes simplex labialis is associated with mild morbidity, but remains a significant problem for people with frequent and/or severe recurrences. Both topical and peroral episodic antiviral treatments of recurrences are modestly effective at reducing the duration of signs and symptoms. Rece... | Randomized Controlled Trials; Steroids; Drug Administration Routes | 2002 |

Aldous, Jay A.; Engar, Richard C. | Do dentists prescribe narcotics excessively? | Dealing with pain is an inevitable sequela to dental treatment. Although several drug regimens primarily involving narcotics have been used in the past, availability of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has increased recently. A study was conducted to analyze dental prescribing patterns ... | Analgesics, Opioid; Anti-Inflammatory Agents; Dentist's Practice Patterns; Pain, Postoperative | 1996-07-01 |

Horch, Kenneth W.; Normann, Richard A. | Simulation of a phosphene field based visual prosthesis | A visual prosthesis for the blind based upon electrical stimulation of the visual cortex requires the development of an array of electrodes. To establish design specifications for such an electrode array, we have conducted psychophysical experiments with normally sighted subjects wearing a portable... | Visual prosthesis; Phosphene simulator | 1990 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Combinator evaluation of functional programs with logical variables | A technique is presented that brings logical variables into the scope of the well known Turner method for evaluating normal order functioned programs by S, K, I combinator graph reduction. This extension is illustrated by SASL+LV, an extension of Turner's language SASL in which general expressions s... | Functional programs; Logical variables; SASL+LV; Turner's language | 1987 |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Observed influence of riming, temperature, and turbulence on the fallspeed of solid precipitation | Forecasts of the amount and geographic distribution of snow are highly sensitive to a model's parameterization of hydrometeor fallspeed. Riming is generally thought to lead to particles with a higher mass and terminal velocity. Yet models commonly assume that heavily rimed particles such as graupel ... | 2014-01-01 | |

Henderson, Thomas C. | Multisensor methods to estimate thermal diffusivity | Several methods for the estimation of thermal diffusivity are studied in this work. In many application scenarios, the thermal diffusivity is unknown and must be estimated in order to perform other estimation functions (e.g., tracking of the physical phenomenon, or solving other inverse problems lik... | 2012-01-01 | |

Liu, Feng | Self-organized replication of 3D coherent island size and shape in multilayer heteroepitaxial films | A model is proposed to elucidate the evolution of the morphology of strained 3D islands in multilayer heteroepitaxial films. The model explains the experimental observation that islands grown in successive layers not only replicate, forming individual island columns, but self-organize to reach a com... | Coherent island size; Island shape; Heteroepitaxial films; Strained 3D islands; Heteroepitaxial films | 1999-03 |

Miller, Jan D. | Air-sparged hydrocyclone (ASH) technology for cyanide recovery | An air-sparged hydrocyclone (ASH) mobile system was evaluated for continuous stripping and recovery of cyanide (the AVR process) from process water at a gold plant site. The ASH unit performed exceptionally well as an absorber. HCN was absorbed from the gas phase in a single pass with an efficiency... | Cyanide recovery; Air-sparged hydrocyclone; Gold processing; Process water | 2005 |
