      Hornak, Joseph; Szumowski, J.; Bryant, Robert (Wiley: Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 1988-02)
      Homogeneous radiofrequency magnetic fields are necessary for production of high-quality magnetic images and for most forms of magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It is often convenient to map the radiofrequency homogeneity ...
    • Mainstreaming the deaf student 

      Foster, Susan; Emerton, Greg (Journal of Disability Policy Studies, 1991)
      In most areas of special eduction, Public Law 94-142 has been hailed as a breakthrough. By stipulating that children with disabilities be educated with the least restrictive environment, the law promotes schooling of these ...

      Serum triglyceride (TG) level is a well-known risk factor for cardiovascular disease, a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Western countries. Although genome-wide scans for TG have been conducted in several ...
    • Male parental care and its adaptive significance in a neotropical frog 

      Townsend, Daniel; Stewart, Margaret; Pough, F. Harvey (Elsevier: Animal Behaviour, 1984-05)
      In the Puerto Rican frog Eleutherodactylus coqui, parental care is performed exclusively by males, and consists of attending the eggs and hatchlings at a terrestrial oviposition site. The two major behavioural components ...
    • Mannityl opine accumulation and exudation by transgenic tobacco 

      Savka, Michael; Farrand, Stephen (American Society of Plant Biologists: Plant Physiology, 1992-02)
      Three genes from the TR region of pTi15955 were introduced into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) to direct the synthesis of the mannityl opines from hexose sugars and glutamine or glutamate. Opines were present in all tissue ...
    • Manufacturing a new front 

      Ramkumar, S. Manian (A Peterson's/COG Publication: Engineering Horizons Magazine, 1994)
    • Manufacturing practices: antecedents to mass customization 

      Qiang, Tu; Vonderembse, Mark; Ragu-Nathan, T.S. (Taylor and Francis. The definitive copy can be found at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/default.asp., 2004)
      Mass customization is a strategy that many firms are adopting to exploit the demand for products that meet the needs of individual customers. Mass customization capability is a firm's ability to manufacture products that ...
    • The Mass spectral analyses of deuterated and undeuterated bridged polycyclic acetates 

      Cristol, Stanley; Sanchez, Robert; Morrill, Terence (The American Chemical Society: The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 1966-09-12)
      The mass spectral analyses of exo-dehydronorbornyl (Ia) and nortricyclyl (IIa) acetates are reported. In addition, the mass spectra are reported for exo-cis-3-deuteriodehydro-2-norbornyl acetate (IIIa) and for a sample ...
    • Math thought and process 

      Gilbert, Timothy (Lulu.com, 2008)
    • A mathematical model of retinal neovascularization 

      Maggelakis, Sophia; Savakis, Andreas (Elsevier Science B.V., 1999-01)
      A mathematical model based on diffusion equations is presented, which directly relates the production of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) in the retina to oxygen concentration and consumption, the capillary density ...
    • Measurement of impulsivity in a hierarchical model of personality traits: Implications for substance use 

      Acton, G. Scott (Substance Use & Misuse; Marcel Dekker, 2003)
      This review describes how measures of a prominent three-dimensional hierarchical model of personality traits relate to substance use. H. J. Eysenck proposed a biologically based model of personality that gave rise to related ...
    • Measuring modularity-based manufacturing practices and their impact on mass customization capability: A Customer-driven perspective 

      Tu, Qiang; Vonderembse, Mark; Ragu-Nathan, T.S.; Ragu-Nathan, Bhanu (Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
      As uncertainty in markets and technology intensifies, more companies are adopting modular product and process architectures to cope with increasing demands for individually customized products. Modularity-based manufacturing ...
    • Mechanism for period-doubling bifurcation in a semiconductor laser subject to optical injection 

      Erneux, Thomas; Kovanis, Vassilios; Gavrielides, Athanasios; Alsing, Paul (American Physical Society, 1996-06)
      The single-mode rate equations for a semiconductor laser subject to optical injection are investigated analytically. We determine the first branch of periodic solutions for low values of the injection field. For larger ...
