This is the final technical report for NASA Grant No. NGR 11-002-133. The research under this grant consisted of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (ehd) studies and pressure-viscosity studies. Existing equipment was modified to more closely simulate practical ehd conditions. Analyses of ehd and pressure-viscosity data on eleven fluids previously investigated for NASA were also conducted. Near the ...

Embryonic expression of the murine homologue of SALL1, the gene mutated in Townes±Brocks syndrome 143 Xenopus Smad3 is speci®cally expressed in the chordoneural hinge, notochord and in the endocardium of the developing heart 147 Cloning and expression pattern of a novel PEBP2b-binding protein (charged amino acid rich leucine zipper-1 [Crl-1]) in the mouse 151

Call-by-name can be simulated in a call-by-value setting using \thunks" (i.e., parameterless procedures) or continuation-passing-style (CPS). In this paper we uncover a relationship between the two simulations. We prove that the call-by-value CPS transformation Cv, when applied to a term T (t) which simulates call-by-name using thunks, yields a term identical to the call-by-name CPS transformat...

carob moth, ectomyelois ceratoniae zeller (lep.: pyralidae) is considered as the most important pest of pomegranate in iran causing serious damages up to 80% at pre and post harvesting stages. in this study larval parasitoids of carob moth were collected from three regions of production sites of pomegrante namely: varamin, qom, and saveh during 2007. eight species were collected from varamin, 7...

The deficiency of calcium, magnesium, potassium, and iron leads to severe disorders in human body organs. This study introduces Dooshab as a food source of these useful elements. The Dooshab which translates to grape syrup is widely used in Iran. In the traditional method of the Dooshab production, the white soil is added to the grape juice and the mixture is boiled. After cooling, it is fi...
