The methods of differential geometry are used with the assumption that rays of light follow geodesic trajectories in a space whose metric is determined by the refraction index. Keeping this in mind, we show that these hypotheses are equivalent to…

The thesis examines the utility of a pre-developed conceptual framework for learning about the human resource development (HRD) needs in a national context. The literature review focuses on knowledge-building within the main development theories and paradigms, two mainstream approaches to…

To calculate retinal magnification and visual acuity in highly myopic phakic eyes corrected with anterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs) versus correction by other methods.
Relative retinal magnification (RRM) was used to study changes in retinal image size induced by different…

This study examined the prevalence of information epidemics in the physics literature. The primary interest was to find out whether outliers observed on time series charts of literatures are due to information epidemics, whether these epidemics are widespread occurrences in…

When aberrations are small, it is possible to use wave aberration variance to obtain the position of the best image plane in both conventional and holographic optical systems. However, when aberrations increase, this measurement is not sufficient and it does…

Previously we described a large collection of cloned human DNAs that encode chemically defined missense mutations
within the ribosomal protein S14 sequence. We determined that biologically inactive (i.e. null) alleles resulted primarily
from point mutations targeted to two internal segments…

Este trabalho teve por objetivo desenvolver novas formulações de snacks de terceira geração por extrusão termoplástica de misturas de farinhas de pupunha e mandioca e averiguar o potencial do novo produto. A farinha de pupunha foi incorporada à farinha de…

The genus Bradyrhizobium encompasses a variety of bacteria that can live in symbiotic and endophytic associations with legumes and non-legumes, and are characterized by physiological and symbiotic versatility and broad geographical distribution. However, despite indications of great genetic variability within…
