DSpace is a joint development project of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Libraries and Hewlett-Packard Company. Its mission is to establish a library service to capture, distribute, and preserve the digital, intellectual output of the MIT community. We are developing…

Thin wires are attached on the outer surface and parallel to the axis of a smooth
circular cylinder in a steady cross-stream, modelling the effect of protrusions and
attachments. The impact of the wires on wake properties, and vortex-induced loads

This thesis traces the development of American bacteriology during the first quarter of the twentieth century. While bacteriology experienced a period of rapid growth, an enduring disciplinary anxiety equally characterized the field. In particular, bacteriologists feared increasing specialization and conceptual…

The MIT Libraries'€™ proposed to the Mellon Foundation to plan a preservation archive for
dynamic electronic journals (DEJA : a€“ Dynamic E-Journal Archive) that would be reliable, secure,
enduring, and sustainable over the long term. The Foundation'€™s own request for…

Current modeling of endothelial cell mechanics does not account for the network of F-actin that permeates the
cytoplasm. This network, the distributed cytoplasmic structural actin (DCSA), extends from apical to basal membranes, with
frequent attachments. Stress fibers are intercalated within…

A continuum model describing the steady-state actin dynamics of the cytoskeleton of living cells Has been
developed to aid in the interpretation of photoactivated fluorescence experiments. In a simplified cell geometry, the model
assumes uniform concentrations of cytosolic and cytoskeletal…

We have studied nine laser transitions in Ba vapor at wavelengths
between 1.13 and 3.05 micrometer. Three of these laser lines have not
been reported previously. The relative intensities of the four strongest
transitions (1.13, 1.50, 2.55, and 2.92 micrometer)…
