Augmented Expression of Apelin/APJ in the Paraventricular Nuclei of Rats after Myocardial Infarction
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Heart failure (HF) is a disease condition in which insufficient blood is pumped through the body. The pathophysiology of HF is multisystematic and includes a collection of different responses to compensate for the inability ...
Stereoselective Carbon-Carbon Bond Construction Using Indium and Bismuth: New Methods in Green Chemistry
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Selective chemical reactions that can be accomplished with minimal waste using non-toxic catalysts and reagents will allow for new greener chemical processes for future environmentally sustainable technologies. This work ...
Enhancement of Dispersibility of Zero-Valent Iron Nanoparticles for Environmental Remediation: Entrapment and Surface Modification with Polymers
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) particles have been surface modified and used for contaminant remediation. NZVI tend to agglomerate due to magnetic and van der Waals forces and form larger particles that settle down in ...
Clay Fluid Interactions in Montmorillonite Swelling Clays: A Molecular Dynamics and Experimental Study
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Swelling clays cause tremendous amounts of damage to infrastructure. For the effective prevention of detrimental effects of these clays, and to optimize the beneficial properties for industrial applications it is necessary ...
Influence of Molecular Interactions on Elastic Properties and Oxygen Diffusion in PolyButylene Terephthalate Polymer: A Molecular Dynamics Study
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
In most barrier applications, both mechanical and diffusion properties of the material are important. In this thesis the evaluation of molecular mechanisms responsible for the enhanced elastic properties of Polymer Clay ...
Initial Swelling Mechanism of Expansive Clays: A Molecular Dynamics Study
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Expansive soils are widely found in many parts of the world. Highly active smectite clay mineral Montmorillonite is the major constituent in these clays and can expand or contract up to 15 times of their original volume. ...
An Investigation of Integration and Performance Issues Related to the Use of Extended Page Sizes in Computationally Intensive Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
The combination of increasing fabrication density and corresponding decrease in price has resulted in the ability of commodity platforms to support large memory capacities. Processor designers have introduced support for ...
Capacitated Transshipment Models for Predicting Signaling Pathways
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Signal transduction is a process of transmitting signals for controlling biological responses. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) data, containing signal transduction proteins, can be considered as a bi-directional, ...
