Vicinal dithioethers and alkenyl thioethers were synthesized under environmentally
friendly conditions using alkyne and thiol in water. Alkynes were also used to develop a
multibond-fonning reaction that fonned cyclic ketones or ketoesters through...
Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are devices to convert wind energy into electricity. Unlike horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) where the main rotor shaft is set horizontally, VAWTs use vertical rotor shaft. Unlike HAWTs, VAWTs can be...
Vascular injury and chronic arterial diseases such as atherosclerosis and restenosis result in exposure of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) to increased concentrations of growth factors triggering a change from a contractile to a synthetic...
Various vision tasks are usually confronted by appearance variations due to changes of illumination. For instance, in a recognition system, it has been shown that the variability in human face appearance is owed to changes to lighting conditions...
Various groupings of silver-plated compact cases with different shapes and designs. Some of open to reveal the interior contents. Title supplied by cataloger.
Gardeners--Kentucky--Louisville--Social conditions; Community gardens--Kentucky--Louisville
Using four surveys, two created by this researcher, another created by Walizcek, Mattson, and Zajicek, and a fourth created by Herbach, the researcher compared the characteristics of community gardeners, their motivations for gardening, and the...
Urbanization disrupts natural soil profiles and as watersheds are
urbanized, their surfaces become impervious and this will result in
reduction of infiltration. For this reason, many cities are facing problems
with treating runoff water. Best...
Unrepaired DNA damage poses a serious threat to the genetic stability of a replicating cell. One mechanism of tolerating this damage is translesion DNA synthesis (TLS), in which an accessory polymerase synthesizes DNA directly across from a damaged...
Bartending--Technological innovations; Block diagrams; Quadratic assignment problem
Typically bartenders will arrange liquor bottles in a bar based on their own preferences. This research project describes an alternative way to arrange the bottles on the speed rail more efficiently. This will allow bartenders to make drinks...
Two young men, both wearing white long-sleeve shirts and dark pants, stand outside a barn. One of them is playing guitar. Jean Thomas' notes identify two of the four images of these men as Wheelwright Boys, but other images also identified as...
Two tables comparing the weights of steel reinforcing bars of different sizes. The one on the left is dated 11-17-1926. The one on the right was revised April 29, 1935.
Two men, one with guitar, sit on a log fence on a mountain. Jean Thomas' notes identify two of the four images of these men as Wheelwright Boys, but other images also identified as Wheelwright Boys include different musicians. Wheelwright may refer...
Two men stand, and two men and a woman sit on horses in front of a log cabin with a shingle roof and stone chimney. The dirt yard is enclosed by different types of fence and includes a few large trees and two more horses, one a foal. In the...
Two men stand on a mountain. One smokes a cigarette and holds the neck of a guitar. Jean Thomas' notes identify two of the four images of these men as Wheelwright Boys, but other images also identified as Wheelwright Boys include different...
Two men stand on a mountain next to a cabin or barn. One plays a guitar. Jean Thomas' notes identify two of the four images of these men as Wheelwright Boys, but other images also identified as Wheelwright Boys include different musicians....
Two men sit outside a frame house playing guitar and banjo. The man playing guitar wears a hat, suit jacket, and two-tone shoes. The man playing banjo wears suspenders and boots. This is one of four different groups of musicians identified by Jean...
Neuropsychology; Motor ability; Eye-hand coordination
Two major theoretical models, Direct Mapping and Functional Equivalence, suggest that the observation of action and imagery of action, respectively, involve activation of similar motor related areas. Despite the wealth of evidence that supports...
