Abstract—Spark Assisted Chemical Engraving (SACE) is a non-traditional micro-machining technology, with one of its unique characteristics being the physical distance relationship between the tool and workpiece during machining. Previous papers have illustrated that maintaining space between the...

A mechanistic model for understanding invasions: using the environment as a predictor of population success
Download2011-01-01
DiBacco, C., Lewis, Mark A., Strasser, C. A.
Aim We set out to develop a temperature-and salinity-dependent mechanistic population model for copepods that can be used to understand the role of environmental parameters in population growth or decline. Models are an important tool for understanding the dynamics of invasive species; our model...

A mechanistic model of intermittent gastric emptying and glucose-insulin dynamics following a meal containing milk components
Download2016
Cant, John P., Steele, Michael A., Stahel, Priska, MacPherson, Jayden A. R., Berends, Harma
To support decision-making around diet selection choices to manage glycemia following a meal, a novel mechanistic model of intermittent gastric emptying and plasma glucose-insulin dynamics was developed. Model development was guided by postprandial timecourses of plasma glucose, insulin and the...

A mêlée without Sacrifice: Nancy's Ontology of Offering against Derrida's Politics of Sacrifice
Download2006
In this paper I want to explore a certain community of writing, namely the one between Jacques Derrida and Jean-Luc Nancy. The on-going dialogue between the two on the subject of community has left in their writings only traces (with the exception of the first essay in Derrida’s Voyous): implicit...

A member of the neuronal Ca2+-sensor protein family visinin-like-protein-1 (vilip-1) is expressed in pancreatic β-cells and regulates insulin secretion and biosynthesis

Gaisano, Herbert Y., Braunewell, Karl-Heinz, Dai, Feihan F., Chan, Catherine B., Wang, Qinghua, Kang, Youhou, Wheeler, Michael B., Zhang, Yi
Visinin-like protein-1 (VILIP-1) is a member of the neuronal Ca2+ sensor protein family that modulates Ca2+-dependent cell signaling events. VILIP-1, which is expressed primarily in the brain, increases cAMP formation in neural cells by modulating adenylyl cyclase, but its functional role in...

The settlement and drainage behaviour of co-mix, or mixtures of waste rock and tailings, are examined in a column study. Three co-mix profiles were observed for settlement, drainage, and pore water pressure response. A fourth profile with waste rock and no tailings was also observed for...

A meta-analysis on the reading comprehension skills of individuals with autism spectrum disorders
Download2013
Brown, Heather, Oram-Cardy, Janis, Johnson, Andrew
This meta-analysis examined 36 studies comparing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and control groups in reading comprehension. Three moderators (semantic knowledge, decoding skill, PIQ) and two text types (high vs. low social knowledge) were examined as predictors of reading comprehension in ASD....

Subaqueous water-rock reactions that occur at the pit wall/lake water interface can affect the pH of pit lakes. Many pit lake water chemistry models neglect subaqueous reactions, which may create inaccurate predictions over time. A mineral quantification method is presented that defines the wall...

Assessment of metal mobility, acid rock drainage production, and toxic effects from weathering of mineralised materials (ie mine-waste piles and outcropping alteration/ore zones) is key in evaluating and mitigating metal mining sites. Many metal- and acid-generating materials at these sites are...

Coeppicus, S., Bauer, C., Grassmann, J., Ruhrberg, M., Peiffer, S.
Within the context of acid mine drainage (AMD) associated with mining activities worldwide there has been a tremendous research effort to determine the extent of AMD and assess the influencing factors controlling this process. However, the majority of the current approaches focus on local and...
