3-Hydroxykynurenine And 3-Hydroxyanthranilic Acid Generate Hydrogen Peroxide And Promote Α-Crystallin Cross Linking By Metal Ion Reduction, Lee E. Goldstein, Michael C. Leopold, Xudong Huang, Craig S. Atwood, Aleister J. Saunders, Mariana Hartshorn, James T. Lim, Et Al.

Chemistry Faculty Publications

The kynurenine pathway catabolite 3-hydroxykynurenine (3HK) and redox-active metals such as copper and iron are implicated in cataractogenesis. Here we investigate the reaction of kynurenine pathway catabolites with copper and iron, as well as interactions with the major lenticular structural proteins, the R-crystallins. The o-aminophenol kynurenine catabolites 3HK and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3HAA) reduced Cu(II)>Fe(III) to Cu(I) and Fe(II), respectively, whereas quinolinic acid and the nonphenolic kynurenine catabolites kynurenine and anthranilic acid did not reduce either metal. Both 3HK and 3HAA generated superoxide and hydrogen peroxide in a copper-dependent manner. In addition, 3HK and 3HAA fostered copper-dependent R-crystallin cross-linking. 3HK- …

Evolutionary Multi-Objective Decision Support Systems For Conceptual Design, Dragan Cvetkovic

School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Theses

In this thesis the problem of conceptual engineering design and the possible use of adaptive search techniques and other machine based methods therein are explored. For the multi-objective optimisation (MOO) within conceptual design problem, genetic algorithms (GA) adapted to MOO are used and various techniques explored: weighted sums, lexicographic order, Pareto method with and without ranking, VEGA-like approaches etc. Large number of runs are performed for findingZ Dth e optimal configuration and setting of the GA parameters. A novel method, weighted Pareto method is introduced and applied to a real-world optimisation problem. Decision support methods within conceptual engineering design framework …

Data Points Or Cultural Entities: A Gis-Based Archaeological Predictive Model In A Post-Positivist Framework., Linwood Jesse Rouse

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

Archaeological predictive models have been used in conjunction with sampling strategies, in large scale archaeological surveys, for over thirty years. During this time, these models have undergone many conceptual and theoretical changes. Archaeological predictive models stemmed from the positivist Processual Archaeology, but the shift from positivism has precipitated the need to reconsider the ideas from which they are based. There is a general trend within the current spectrum of ideologies to support the importance of cultural information in archaeological research. The following research contends that cultural information has not been utilized to its full extent in archaeological models and that …

Development Of System Parameters For Enhanced Cutting And Finishing Of Handglass Using A Carbon Dioxide Laser., Christopher Edward Thompson

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

In handglass manufacturing, a need has been identified for a more efficient method to crack off glassware. Extended cutting and finishing times and high rates of breakage in the glassware hinder current methods. For example, due to the physical nature of thermal cracking, crack-off is not easily controlled and after separation is achieved, further finishing of the glassware is required. Depending on the glass properties and worker skill level, losses due to breakage can be as high as 80 percent in some product lines. The Laser Glass Cutting Machine (LGCM) is a joint project among the National Energy Technology Laboratory …

An Electromagnetic Field Model For The Design Of Rf Reed Relays, Robert Anthony Harrison

School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Theses

A model of the electromechanical characteristics, electrostatic characteristics and coil eddy current losses of a reed relay was developed. These characteristics were returned from reed and coil dimensions. The model was intended as an aid to the design of reed relays for Radio Frequency (RF) and high voltage applications. An electromechanical model of a reed switch and coil was developed using a combination of an axisymmetric finite element model and analytical methods. The characteristics returned from this model were operate, release and differential amp turns, contact gap and contact force. Inclusion of results for contact resistance against contact force yielded …

(2000.4) Discovering Our Voice: Instructional Manual To Accompany 'Geraldo', Ann Margaret Sharp, Laurance J. Splitter

Collected Papers of Ann Margaret Sharp

Geraldo is a story about what an immigrant undergoes when he leaves one culture and tries to 'join' another culture. An immigrant suffers a triple disruption: he loses his sense of place, he enters into an alien language, and he finds himself surrounded by beings whose social behavior, norms and traditions are very unlike, and sometimes even offensive to his own. The explanation of the leading ideas in this manual help students and teachers explore the philosophical themes in Geraldo. The discussion plans, exercises, and activities are designed to foster and cultivate the process of philosophical dialogue in the classroom.

(2000) Concepts, Communities And The Tools Of Good Thinking, Laurance J. Splitter

Collected Papers of Laurance J. Splitter

There is a strong connection, both pedagogic and conceptual, between the discipline of philosophy and the practice of thinking – or more precisely, the normative practice of good thinking. An understanding of this connection lends weight to the argument that philosophy needs to be a regular part of the educational landscape, not just for a tiny minority of college students, but for the overwhelming majority of school students – younger the better. Philosophical inquiry has three dimensions: an appropriate classroom environment (patterns of interaction), appropriate tools and strategies (specific cognitive and meta-cognitive moves), and content which is intriguing and accessible …

Thickness Dependence Of C/A Polytwin Structures Observed In Epitaxial Oxide Ferroelectric Thin Films, S. Pami̇r Alpay, Alexander L. Roytburd

Turkish Journal of Physics

Ferroelectric or ferroelastic epitaxial films undergoing a cubic-to-tetragonal phase transformation usually relax the resultant strain energy due to lattice misfit by forming a polytwin (polydomain) structure. Polydomain formation occurs at the expense of building interdomain interfaces and microstresses which develop at the film-substrate interface due to the periodic deviation of the strain. The interplay between these components results in a critical thickness for domain formation below which the polydomain structure is not stable. In this article, we investigate the film thickness dependence of a polydomain structure using a thermodynamical approach.

Interaction Between Cesium Chloride Molecules And Metal Atoms Under Coadsorption On A Single Graphite Layer On Iridium, N. M. Nasrullaev

Turkish Journal of Physics

Using the method of continuos flow to investigate the kinetics of reaction between atoms and molecules, the efficiency of substitution reactions (K, Na, Li)+ CsCl is shown to decrease. The efficiency is found to strongly depend on temperature tending to saturation with decreasing temperature. This fact is in accordance with Bonzel's concept.

Thermal Stability Of Fe_{85.5}B_{14.5} Metallic Glass, Asghari Maqsood, Ashfaq Ahmad

Turkish Journal of Physics

The thermal stability and crystallization behaviour of metallic glass Fe\( _{85.5} \)B\( _{14.5} \) were investigated by Dynamic Temperature Resistivity Measurement (DTRM) technique from room temperature to 1050K in forward and reverse mode at a heating rate of 40 K/hr. The slope of Resistivity-Temperature-Curve (RTC) changes sign and magnitude at the temperature where the transition takes place. Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) was carried out at the heating rates of 10, 20, 30 \& 40 K/min. A comparison of the results of DTRM and DTA measurements shows that crystallization in this alloy is two-stage process. Activation energy for two crystallization steps …

K-Vacancy Production In The Collision Of Highly Charged Relativistic Ions With Heavy Atoms, P. K. Khabibullaev, V. I. Matveev, D. U. Matrasulov

Turkish Journal of Physics

A general expression for the cross section of the inelastic collision of relativistic highly charged ion with heavy (relativistic) atoms is obtained using the generalized eikonal approximation. In the ultrarelativistic limit, the obtained formula coincides with a known exact one. As an application of the obtained result, probability and cross section of the K-vacany production in the $U^{92+} - U^{91+}$ collision are calculated.
