Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMultivariate Option Pricing with Gaussian Mixture Distributions and Mixed CopulasJimbo Henri Claver, Tatanfack Emerson, Shu FelixRecently, it has been reported that the hypothesis proposed by the classical black scholes model to price multivariate options in finance were unrealistic, as such, several other methods have been introduced over the last decades including the copulas methods which uses copulas functions to model the dependence structure of underlying assets. However, the previous work did not take into account … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2023 · 6,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUsing Permeable Reactive Barriers to Remediate Heavy Metal-Contaminated Groundwater through a Laboratory Column ExperimentSomean Yin, Gemunu Herath, Sokchhay Heng, Senajith KalpageRecently, groundwater sources are being polluted by various activities such as agriculture, livestock, decentralized wastewater treatment systems and acid rain. Groundwater can also be polluted by landfill leachate, sewage, mine tailings, non-engineered deep well disposal of liquid waste and seepage from industrial waste lagoons. There are many studies reported contaminated groundwater remediation using Permeable Reactive Barrier systems (PRBs) and many … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 Mar 2017 · 8,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGeobody Architecture and Petroleum Potential of the Yowi Field, Offshore Eastern Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, Minapuye Isaac OdigiA study on geobody architecture and petroleum potential of the Yowi Field has been carried out by integrating well logs and 3D seismic data. The objectives of this study include: The determination of the lateral continuity of key horizons; identification of gross geobody distribution and architecture; and the petroleum potential of the field. Well log correlation shows that key horizons … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,669 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHOMOLOGY MODELING AND MOLECULAR DYNAMICS STUDIES OF EC1 DOMAIN OF VE-CADHERIN TO ELUCIDATE DOCKING INTERACTION WITH CADHERIN-DERIVED PEPTIDEVivitri Dewi Prasasty, Usman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Teruna Jaya SiahaanVE-cadherin is a protein in the cadherin family that is found at the adherens junctions of the microvessel endothelial cells of the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB). It is recognized as the homotypic cell adhesion molecules and there is limited structural information on how VE-cadherins mediate cell-cell adhesion. It has been shown that the EC1 domain of cadherins is important for the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2014 · 7,530 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Quercetin Encapsulated Liposomes via Nasal Administration: A Novel Cognitive EnhancerTerdthai Tong-un, Supaporn Muchimapura, Wathita Phachonpai, Jintanaporn WattanathornProblem statement: Demand for cognitive-enhancing drugs is growing. Numerous medicinal plants possessing antioxidant activity have received much attention as food supplement to improve cognitive function. Quercetin is a potent free radical scavenger and antioxidant. However, the limitations of quercetin: Rapidly metabolized is an obstacle to its use for a cognitive enhancer. In addition, the burden of blood brain barrier can … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNeuroprotective Effect of Quercetin Encapsulated Liposomes: A Novel Therapeutic Strategy against Alzheimer’s DiseaseW. Phachonpai, J. Wattanathorn, S. Muchimapura et al.Problem statement: The prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease is increasing but the efficacy of treatment is still very limited due to various factors including the blood brain barrier. Recent findings demonstrated the crucial role of oxidative stress on the pathophysiology of disease. In addition the burden of blood brain barrier can be overcome by nasal administration and vesicle-carrier mediated delivery system. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 9,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPreliminary Tests Concerning Zero-Valent Iron Efficiency in Inorganic Pollutants RemediationSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiProblem statement: This study was aimed to a preliminary evaluation of the applicability of granular Zero-Valent Iron (ZVI) to the on site remediation of groundwater polluted by inorganic contaminants by means of a Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB). A particular interest was devoted to groundwater impacted by Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) that was caused by the oxidation of metal sulphide minerals … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,789 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparative Permeation Studies between Scale Region of Shed Snake Skin and Human Skin In vitroAroonsri Priprem, Chidchanok Khamlert, Thaned Pongjanyakul et al.Scales of shed king cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) skin from the dorsal portions, (SSS) and human breast epidermis (HE) were used as barrier membranes for comparison in an in vitro drug permeation study of nine active compounds (MW range 150-300 g mol-1, pKa 3-10). Each compound, saturated in a donor solution at pH 4.0 or 5.6, permeated through the barrier membrane, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Pathology of Alzheimer Disease Elicits an In Vivo Immunological ResponseDavid J. Bonda, Kate M. Webber, Sandra L. Siedlak et al.The mechanism(s) responsible for the loss of neurons that characterizes Alzheimer disease is incompletely understood. Nonetheless, there is considerable evidence suggestive of immune abnormalities coupled to alterations in blood-brain barrier permeability that likely play a key role in both the etiology and progression of the disease. To examine these issues further, this study was designed to examine the presence of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFlow of Dividends under a Constant Force of InterestJuma Kasozi, Jostein PaulsenThis study addresses the issue of maximization of dividends of an insurer whose portfolio is exposed to insurance risk.
