Border Hispanics’ Physical Activity Improvement In A Chronic Disease Prevention Program, Lu Xu
Border Hispanics’ Physical Activity Improvement In A Chronic Disease Prevention Program, Lu Xu
Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA
In seeking of effective prevention programs to improve physical activities, we want to examine the factors related to physical activities improvement in Alliance for a Healthy Border, a chronic disease prevention program with pre-post-post evaluations through 12 federally qualified community health centers serving primarily Hispanics in communities along the U.S.- Mexico border. Logistic regression was performed to examine the association between physical activity and twenty predictors at baseline. Multinomial regression was used to examine the determinants of physical activities improvement at two time points: program end and post six-months. Socio-demographic, baseline health condition factors, and determination of doing physical activity …
Pointwise Schauder Estimates Of Parabolic Equations In Carnot Groups, Heather Arielle Griffin
Pointwise Schauder Estimates Of Parabolic Equations In Carnot Groups, Heather Arielle Griffin
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Schauder estimates were a historical stepping stone for establishing uniqueness and smoothness of solutions for certain classes of partial differential equations. Since that time, they have remained an essential tool in the field. Roughly speaking, the estimates state that the Holder continuity of the coefficient functions and inhomogeneous term implies the Holder continuity of the solution and its derivatives. This document establishes pointwise Schauder estimates for second order parabolic equations where the traditional role of derivatives are played by vector fields generated by the first layer of the Lie algebra stratification for a Carnot group. The Schauder estimates are shown …
