The Adult Dispositional Hope Scale (AHS) is the first and primary measure that evaluates hope construct. However, instrument’s factorial structure still debatable. present study aims to validate evaluate psychometric properties of Indonesian version AHS. Participants were 221 adults recruited via an online survey. Confirmatory Factor Analysis results showed two-factor model best represents AHS ...

The spin Hall effect is a phenomenon of inducing spin current by an external electric field. We recently proposed that this effect can occur in p-type semiconductors without relying upon any disorder scattering [S. Murakami et al., Science 301, 1348 (2003)]. This intrinsic effect is due to the “Berry phase in momentum space”, representing topological structure of the Bloch band structure. We ex...

Carbohydrate malabsorption such as in lactose intolerance or enteric infection causes symptoms that include abdominal pain. Because this digestive disorder increases intracolonic osmolarity and acidity by accumulation of undigested carbohydrates and fermented products, we tested whether these two factors (hypertonicity and acidity) would modulate colorectal afferents in association with colorec...

Alkaline-heat-treated titanium self-forms an apatite surface layer in vivo. The aim of the present study was to materialistically characterize the surface of alkaline-heat-treated titanium immersed in simulated body fluid (AHS-TI) and to examine the differentiation behavior of osteoblasts on AHS-TI. SEM, thin-film XRD, FTIR, and XPS analyses revealed that AHS-TI contained a 1.0- micro m-thick, ...

This research seeks to provide an understanding of the functioning of a fully automated highway system (AHS). In order to do that, several detailed questions of AHS design need to be answered with a level of detail sufficient to permit the development of mathematical and computer models of the AHS. This is the modeling stage. The next stage of research is the simulation stage. Its objective is ...

The Automated Highway Systems ahs project at UC Berkeley is part of a comprehensive program initiated by the U S government under the Intermodal Surface Transportation E ciency Act of to improve safety and reduce congestion in the surface transportation system UC Berkeley s path Laboratory is part of a nine member consortium along with General Motors Bechtel Parsons Brinckerho Martin Marietta D...

Bluetongue (BT) and African horse sickness (AHS) are considered the most important orbiviral diseases in Southern Africans countries. The general endemic status makes these diseases challenging to be quanti ed in terms of their economic impact. Using country reported data from BT and AHS outbreaks and cases, as well as international trade data, the economic impact of BT and AHS is evaluated on ...
