(TCP/IP) to serve billions of users worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks, of local to global scope, that are linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext documents of the World Wide Web (WWW) and the infrastructure to support…
I. Science Fair Question What is the speed of light in gelatin? II. Background Research Did you ever wonder how the speed of light is measured? This paper will discuss how the speed of light is measured. The terms that will discussed in this paper are the law of refraction, trajectory, Snell’s Law, and the index of refraction. Snell’s Law gives the relationship between angles of incidence and refraction for a wave impinging on an interface between two media with…
Gold Mine Report Main Themes Summary The first theme that is evident from the novel is the identification of the main business challenge before embarking on implementing lean business methods. In any organization that faces some problems in the business processes or operations, the issues usually point out to a more serious problem. For instance, in the novel, the problem that Phil talks about is his company’s inability to access loans and stay liquid, but the core business challenge is more…
story of becoming the first blind active-duty officer in the military. In 2005, Scotty was involved in a bombing accident that resulted in a piece of shrapnel dissecting his left retina, penetrating his frontal bone, and shredding his right optical nerves and fibers (Smiley & Crandall, 2010, p. 67). As a result of this incident, Scotty was diagnosed with blindness in both eyes, temporary paralysis of the right side of his body, and bruising of his frontal lobe. Within Scotty’s story, he…
5.2.2.2 Interpretation of Regression Model The above equation can be written as D ∝ P^0.058/(V^(-0.117) 〖D_b〗^(-0.133) ) By observing the above equation we can say that the LAZ Depth is directly proportional to the Laser Power and inversely proportional to the Scan Velocity and Beam diameter. The observations of the model can be summarized as below: As Laser Power increases the LAZ Depth of workpiece surface will also increase. This is because the heat input to the workpiece is increasing…
Introduction Temporal lobe epilepsy is the most common type of epilepsy in adults, affecting approximately 1% of the general population. It is formally classified as neuronal misfiring in the mesial temporal lobes causing spontaneous, recurring seizures. In this review, I will investigate how the use of optogenetics in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) reduces seizures and how it can help us understand the cell types and neuronal circuits that underlie seizure generation. The significance of the…
crystallinity, degree of polymerization, specific surface area, and significantly higher mechanical properties compared to the plant-based cellulose [3,4]. It has some other unique properties, such as low density, low thermal expansion as well as high optical transparency [1,5]. As a…
Project Summary Hypothesis Statement: The Atypical Protein Kinase C Zeta (PKMz) is the molecular mechanism underlying Long Term Potentiation (LTP) maintenance at the synaptic membrane. Furthermore, this process is regulated at the level of translation of a locally available pool of PKMz mRNA, and can be sustained in part by active PKMz itself, or inhibited via an activity-dependent translation block. Significance: If the effects of a true PKMz conditional knockout result in memory impairments…

take its total fibre consumption to 14.0 million tonnes by 2005 and its per capita fibre consumption from the 2001 level of 6.0 kg to 8.0 kg. In India, as yet there is no effort to quantify the overall environment impact of wet processing of man-made fibers, especially with respect to chemical components, processing formulations and the effluent produced from the process. It is known that pretreatment of cellulosic textiles is characterized by high consumption of chemicals, water, and energy…
