The kinetics of the global thermal decomposition of a PET fibre cloth have been studied in three different atmospheres with nitrogen, 20 and 10% oxygen, using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) between room temperature and 1050 K. Three different heating rates were…

NFAT (nuclear factors of activated T cells) proteins constitute a family of transcription factors involved in mediating signal transduction. The presence of NFAT isoforms has been described in all cell types of the immune system, with the exception of neutrophils.…

We study stability properties of a proximal point algorithm for solving the inclusion 0 ∈ T (x) when T
is a set-valued mapping that is not necessarily monotone. More precisely we show that the convergence of
our algorithm is uniform,…

If robotic companions are to be used in the near future by aging adults, they have to be accepted by them. In the process of developing a methodology to measure, predict and explain acceptance of robotic companions, we researched the…

A Discrete Event System (DES) is a discrete state space dynamic system that evolves in accordance with the instantaneous occurrence, at possibly unkown times, of physical events. Given a DES, its behavior (the sequence of displayed events) may not satisfy…

While most scholars and researchers recognize that entrepreneurship occurs differently in other countries, there are relatively few undergraduate courses that focus on International Entrepreneurship. Further, of those with an International focus, few provide students with an opportunity to interact with…

Prediction capacity of three main shoot population dynamics methods (age structure, net shoot recruitment per plagiotropic rhizome and shoot census) have been tested for a period of four years (2002–2006) on a Posidonia oceanica meadow. Accuracy of each method was…

A detailed study about the synthesis, characterization and properties of poly(o-methylaniline)(PoMea)/maghnite nanocomposites
has been performed. Changes in the characteristics of the nanocomposites, depending on the intercalated cation
between the clay layers before the synthesis, have been observed. Intercalated morphology has…
