Gut Bacteria of Water Monitor Lizard (Varanus salvator) Are a Potential Source of Antibacterial Compound(s)
(MDPI, 2019)
For the past few decades, there has been limited progress in the development of novel antibacterials. Previously, we postulated that the gut microbiota of animals residing in polluted environments are a forthcoming supply ...
Investigations of the Co-Pt alloy phase diagram with neutron diffuse scattering, inverse cluster variation method, and Monte Carlo simulations
(American Physical Society, 2020)
The short-range order in a CoPt alloy was determined at 1203 and 1423 K using neutron diffuse scattering measurements. The effective pair interactions provided by data analysis reproduce well the experimental order-disorder ...
Joshi’s Split Tree for Option Pricing
(MDPI, 2020)
In a thorough study of binomial trees, Joshi introduced the split tree as a two-phase binomial tree designed to minimize oscillations, and demonstrated empirically its outstanding performance when applied to pricing American ...
Japanese Millennials and Intersex Awareness
(Springer, 2017)
This paper investigates the awareness, attitudes, and opinions of Japanese millennials about intersex people. This research attempts to fill a gap in extant literature concerning the intersex in Asia via an exploratory ...
Path Independence of Exotic Options and Convergence of Binomial Approximations
(Infopro Digital Risk (IP), 2019)
The analysis of the convergence of tree methods for pricing barrier and lookback options has been the subject of numerous publications aiming at describing, quantifying, and improving the slow and oscillatory convergence ...
Fractional Integrodifferentiation and Toeplitz Operators with Vertical Symbols
(Birkhäuser, 2020)
We consider the so-called vertical Toeplitz operators on the weighted Bergman space over the half plane. The terminology “vertical” is motivated by the fact that if a is a symbol of such Toeplitz operator, then a(z) depends ...
Saving Which Children How? The Importance of Cultural Capital in Youth-Focused International Aid and Development
(Routledge, 2022)
This review discusses the book Saving the Children: Humanitarianism, Internationalism, and Empire by Emily Baughan. In the book, Baughan documents and discusses the first 100 years of the Save the Children Fund, which was ...
Minimizing The State Of Health Degradation Of Li-Ion Battery For Low Earth Orbit Satellites
(2018-04)
Satellites have a tangible impact on our daily lives; they provide us with many services like communication, global positioning etc. Satellites may be sent to space for prolonged periods of time. There are several mission ...
Design of Robust Controllers for a Rotary Wing Helicopter
(2013-06)
Due to inherent instability, parametric variations, changing properties during flight, and uncertainties in predicting aerodynamic coefficients, helicopter flight control requires strategies with enough robustness to cope ...
Framework for a Decision Matrix in Green Project Management Processes
(2015-01)
The purpose of this study is to develop a decision matrix for green project management processes (GPMPs) in commercial construction projects. A decision matrix for GPMPs can assist in decoding all the information required ...
