Partially isolated cortex ("undercut") is an animal model of posttraumatic epileptogenesis. The surgical procedure involves cutting through the sensorimotor cortex and the underneath white matter (undercut) so that a specific region of the cerebral cortex is largely isolated from the neighboring cortex and subcortical regions(1-3). After a latency of two or more weeks following the surgery, epi...

effect of these poems, as well as the two entitled "barbiturate ingestion," is to lessen somehow the significance that we as physicians ascribe to death while at the same time broadening our understanding of it. Equally important in creating an ironic tone is the style of the poetry with its sharp juxtaposition of medical terminology and human emotion, each serving to undercut the solemnity but...

In this paper we propose a new capital allocation method based on the idea of Sherris (2006). The proposed method explicitly accommodates the notion of limited liability of the shareholders and can further decompose the allocated capital, so that each stakeholder can have a clearer understanding of their contribution. We also challenge the no undercut principle, one of the widely accepted alloc...

Concurrent planning-working with families toward reunification while developing alternative permanency plans--was designed to fit an out-of-home care population much like that projected for the year 2000 and beyond: very young, chronically neglected children from multiproblem families. As large-scale programs begin to develop nationally, those implementing concurrent planning must be aware of t...

GaAsSb/InP type-II transistors have been fabricated with fT > 325 GHz and fMAX > 275 GHz. This work will examine the layer structure design criteria allowing the fT to improve from 244 GHz to 358 GHz and the effects this has on the corresponding fMAX. Additionally, the process improvements to control the undercut into the active region during the base contact isolation etch will be discussed. T...

Underwater wet welding (UWW) combined with the shielded metal arc (SMAW) method has proven to be an effective way of permanently joining metals that can performed in water. This research was conducted determine effect water flow rate on physical and mechanical properties (tensile, hardness, toughness, bending effect) underwater welded bead A36 steel plate. The control variables used were a spee...

Article shows shear tests results for anchorage using bent foundation bolts 16, 24 and 36 mm in diameter torque-controlled undercut anchors 12, 16 20 diameter. Load-displacement diagrams were acquired loads static dynamic cyclic uncracked cracked concrete. Cyclic loading pattern simulated seismic on anchors. Shear allowed to estimate influence of cracks strength ductility anchorage.
