Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysics Models of Pronuclear Movements in EggsKang Cheng, Changhua ZouBased on published experimental data, Newton's laws, and Coulomb's law, we investigate natural and normal pronuclear movements in wild types of eggs and develop physics models to fit the experimental data quantitatively. The difference between our modeling calculated results and the experimental data is less than 20%. Our models explain why and how pronuclei move in even or in variant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConsidering Environmental Externalities in Technology Selection: the Case of Urban Buses for AthensDimitrios A. GeorgakellosThe present study proposes a procedure for considering the environmental externalities in technology selection decision-making, based on the outcome of Life Cycle Assessments. Currently, even if there are several methods available for technology selection and purchasing, almost all of them seem to ignore the external cost associated with the candidates. The main features of the proposed model are its simplicity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 7,002 accessesView PDFCite
