R.E.D. Rover
The purpose of this project is to build a next generation vehicle for space exploration. We plan to participate in the 2016 University Rover Challenge. The rover will be tele-operated by astronauts to assist with surface ... -
Radar ornithology in the River Lakes Conservation area
The River Lakes Conservation Area also known as St. Johns River (Upper Area) is a known habitat for migratory birds. The NEXRAD Radar was used to observe a population of migratory birds during the spring of 2015. A daily ... -
Radio emissions from terrestrial gamma-ray flashes
(2013-06-20)The theory of radio frequency (RF) emissions by terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) is developed. These radio emissions, which are separate from the emission caused by lightning, are produced by the electric currents ... -
Radio signals from electron beams in terrestrial gamma ray flashes
(2013-05)We show that the rate of association between terrestrial gamma ray flashes (TGFs) observed by the Fermi gamma ray burst monitor and VLF discharges detected by the World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) depends ... -
Raising Eaters Part II: Generational Effects of Parenting Styles on Females Eating Behaviors in Childhood
(2017-04)Over the past four decades pediatric obesity rates have more than tripled and child eating disorders are on the rise, suggesting a significant health concern in children’s eating habits (US Department of Health and Human ... -
RanBP9 aggravates synaptic damage in the mouse brain and is inversely correlated to spinophilin levels in Alzheimer's brain synaptosomes
(2013-06)We previously demonstrated that over expression of RanBP9 led to enhanced Ab generation in a variety of cell lines and primary neuronal cultures, and subsequently, we confirmed increased amyloid plaque burden in a mouse ... -
RanBP9 overexpression accelerates loss of pre and postsynaptic proteins in the APΔE9 transgenic mouse brain
(2014-01-14)There is now compelling evidence that the neurodegenerative process in Alzheimer's disease (AD) begins in synapses. Loss of synaptic proteins and functional synapses in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) transgenic mouse ... -
Random Fixed Point Theorems for Nonexpansive and Contractive-Type Random Operators on Banach Spaces
(1994)The existence of random fixed points for nonexpansive and pseudocontractive random multivalued operators defined on unbounded subsets of a Banach space is proved. A random coincidence point theorem for a pair of compatible ... -
Random fixed point theory in spaces with two metrics
(2003)We present new random fixed point theorems in spaces with two metrics. Our results extend recent results of Tan and Yuan [10] and Xu [11]. -
Random Walks on Random Lattices and Their Applications
(2015-05)This work studies a class of continuous-time, multidimensional random walk processes with mutually dependent random step sizes and their exits from hyperrectangles. Fluctuations of the process about the critical boundary ... -
Rapid Generation of 3D Microchannels Using a Multiphoton Laser System in Blended Hydrogels to Serve as Templates for Microvascular Generation
(2016-09)Lack of scaffold microvascularization is one of the biggest problems facing graft survival and success within current tissue engineering applications. Fortunately, techniques aiming to form microchannels within ... -
Rapidity distributions in exclusive Z+jet and γ+jet events in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV
(2013-12-23)Rapidity distributions are presented for events containing either a Z boson or a photon with a single jet in proton-proton collisions produced at the CERN LHC. The data, collected with the CMS detector at ffiffiffis p ¼ ... -
The rapidly pulsating subdwarf B star PG 1325+101 I. Oscillation modes from multisite observations
(2006-11)In this article we present the results of 215 h of time-series photometry on the rapidly pulsating subdwarf B star PG 1325+101 (Teff - 35 000 K, log g = 5.8, log N(Hs)/N(H) = -1.7), obtained during 25 days of observation ... -
The rapidly pulsating subdwarf B star PG 1325+101 II. Structural parameters from asteroseismology
(2006-11)We present a detailed analysis of the rapidly pulsating subdwarf B star (or EC14026 star) PG 1325+101. This analysis exploits the outcome of dedicated multisite observations using time-series photometry that revealed the ... -
The Rapidly Reconfigurable Research Cockpit
(2015-09-01)The goal of the Rapidly Reconfigurable Research Cockpit (R3C) project is to create and evaluate a novel approach for aviation simulators. Our concept combines a virtual reality visual environment with the tactile feedback ... -
RapidScat Backscatter Measurements Calibration
(2019-05)Scatterometers are microwave radars deployed to estimate global wind speeds and directions over sea surface by measuring Normalized Radar Cross Section (σᵒ) of the sea. Measured is determined by the sea surface roughness ... -
The rarity of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes
(2011-04-22)We report on the first search for Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) from altitudes where they are thought to be produced. The Airborne Detector for Energetic Lightning Emissions (ADELE), an array of gamma-ray detectors, ... -
Ras Labs-CASIS-ISS NL experiment for synthetic muscle returned to Earth: Resistance to ionizing radiation
