Initial-Boundary Value Problems for Higher Order Linear PDEs with Three Independent Variables
Initial-boundary value problems for higher order linear hyperbolic equations with two independent variables were studied in [1] and [2], where necessary and sufficient conditions of solvability and unique solvability of ... -
The initial-final mass relation among white dwarfs in wide binaries
(2012-02-20)We present the initial–final mass relation derived from 10 white dwarfs in wide binaries that consist of a main-sequence star and a white dwarf. The temperature and gravity of each white dwarf were measured by fitting ... -
Initiating chromosome replication in E. coli: It makes sense to recycle
(2009-05-15)Initiating new rounds of Escherichia coli chromosome replication requires DnaA-ATP to unwind the replication origin, oriC, and load DNA helicase. In this issue of Genes & Development, Fujimitsu and colleagues (pp. 1221-1233) ... -
The initiation of lightning by runaway air breakdown
(2005-10-22)A mechanism for lightning initiation by the sustained runaway breakdown of air is presented. Unlike earlior models that rely upon large cosmic-ray air showers, this mechanism uses the runaway electrons produced by the ... -
Initiation of Streamers from Thundercloud Hydrometeors and Implications to Lightning Initiation
(2015-05)Electric field values measured inside thunderclouds have consistently been reported to be up to an order of magnitude lower than the value required for the conventional electrical breakdown of air. This result has made ... -
Instructional Approach and Mathematics Achievement: An Investigation of Traditional, Online, and Flipped Classrooms in College Algebra
(2016-05)The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship three different instructional models had with students’ mathematics achievement. The research factors included group membership (flipped, online, and traditional), ... -
An Integrated Model of Attitude Theory and Applicant Faking Behavior
(2017-07)Applicant faking behavior (AFB) on personality measures has been a longstanding challenge for both researchers and practitioners. Applicant faking behavior is widely defined as a deceptive act that is intended to create ... -
The Integrated Model of Self-Confidence: Defining and Operationalizing Self-Confidence in Organizational Settings
(2018-07)Research suggests that self-confidence is related to success, educational achievement, negotiation, and personal well-being, among other things. It is commonly asserted that employees need to have some degree of self-confidence ... -
Integrated Representation and Discrimination Models for Functional Data Classification
(2019-05)The modus operandi for machine learning is to map functional data to numerical summaries, filter the data, and/or subject it to global signature extractions with the objecive of building robust feature vectors that ... -
Integrating a Modified Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM4) Scheme with Two Spatially Multiplexed Channels in Optical Fiber Communication Systems
(2019-07)A multi-input multi-output (MIMO) based optical fiber multiplexing architecture known as Spatial Domain Multiplexing (SDM) adds a new dimension to optical fiber communication systems by spatially reusing the optical ... -
Integration of Inboard Propulsion in Shock Mitigating Membrane Hull Technology
(2019-12)Membrane Hull Technology is a strength based marine vessel design concept that seeks to utilize the in-plane properties of fiber reinforced composites to generate a lighter weight vessel with inherent shock mitigation ... -
Integration, testing and calibration of imaging systems for land & water remote sensing
(2010-10-27)Imagery is presented along with calibration and testing procedures of several airborne imaging systems. The low altitude airborne systems include a cooled hyperspectral imaging system with 1024 spectral channels and 1375 ... -
Integrodifferential diffusion equation for continuous-time random walk
(2010-01-21)In this paper, we present an integrodifferential diffusion equation for continuous-time random walk that is valid for a generic waiting time probability density function. Using this equation, we also study diffusion behaviors ... -
Intelligent routing protocol for ad hoc wireless network
(2006-05-12)A novel routing scheme for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), which combines hybrid and multi-inter-routing path properties with a distributed topology discovery route mechanism using control agents is proposed in this paper. ... -
Interaction between Fragments of Tau Protein Investigated by Force Spectroscopy Using AFM
(2017-12)Over the last couple of decades, there has been rapidly growing interest in research of natively unfolded proteins. Some proteins from this group are implicated in a number of neurodegenerative diseases. One group of ... -
Interactions of aqueous Ag+ with fulvic acids: mechanisms of silver nanoparticle formation and investigation of stability
(2012-12-13)This study investigated the possible natural formation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in Ag+ −fulvic acid (FA) solutions under various environmentally relevant conditions (temperature, pH, and UV light). Increase in ... -
Interactive Scrollbar
An array of 16-Segment LEDs are illuminated in a scrolling marquee sequence that is selected by the user. The software portion consists of a user interface in the form of a LabView application which sends digital outputs ... -
