Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAcoustic Echo Cancellation: Dual Architecture ImplementationB. Stark, B. D. BarkanaProblem statement: With the rise in mobile communication, it is becoming more frequent to use a communication device in an enclosed noisy environment, such as a subway or in a lobby. In this setting however, the received microphone is severely degraded by the echo from the speaker and background noise. The audio processing necessary to clarify the desired speech can … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSALIVARY CARBONIC ANHYDRASE VI, ZINC SULFATE TASTE ACUITY AND FREQUENCY OF ILLNESS: A PILOT STUDYMatthew J. Zdilla, Leah D. StarkeySalivary Carbonic Anhydrase VI (CA6) is a zinc-dependent metalloenzyme which may be important for normal taste function. Though many taste assessment methods exist, the assessment of zinc sulfate taste acuity is a method that has been suggested to have diverse relationships to human health. A double-blinded pilot study was conducted among 21 individuals to analyze the relationships between salivary CA6 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 8 Jul 2014 · 7,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesComposition-Explicit Distillation Curves of Waste Lubricant Oils and Resourced Crude Oil: A Diagnostic for Re-Refining and EvaluationLisa Starkey Ott, Beverly L. Smith, Thomas J. BrunoProblem statement: We have recently introduced several important improvements in the measurement of distillation curves for complex fluids. The modifications include a composition-explicit data channel for each distillate fraction and temperature measurements that are true thermodynamic state points that can be modeled with an equation of state. The composition-explicit information is achieved with a sampling approach that allows precise qualitative … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility (D.E.I.A.): An Imperative for Brazil's Global CompetitivenessClifford Jaylen LouimeIn Brazil, a country renowned for its cultural diversity and vibrant mix of ethnicities, the underrepresentation of Afro-Brazilians and Indigenous people stands as a stark reality.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvantage of Classical Approximate Analytical Methods for Studying Rydberg States Over the Quantum CounterpartsEugene OksIn studies of atomic and molecular systems, approximate analytical methods play a significant role. This is because they can be used for benchmarking the results of numerical methods. Besides they offer a physical insight into the phenomena under consideration an insight impossible to achieve by numerical methods. Many approximate analytical methods were developed in such a way that each method … …Physics International, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 2 Jul 2024 · 8,007 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractChoice Meaning and Context: Two Sides of the Same Coin?Saadettin Sel, Joachim Storsberg, Mark A. Brown, Christian SchmidtThe human intellect is a powerful instrument to be applied to problems. Expressed differently, sharpening one’s acumen by regular exposure to conundra can be likened to exercising a muscle or refining a tool such as creating brushes to suit certain tasks. Such applications hinge on a reasonable understanding of a given problem and the presentation of opposing viewpoints of the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 24 May 2017 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractNeutrophil Extracellular Traps as Therapeutic Targets for Inflammatory DiseaseRory R. KoenenNeutrophilic granulocytes, or neutrophils are the most abundant circulating white blood cell and constitute a first line of defense against pathogens. They are characterized by a large polymorphic lobular nucleus and the presence of many secretory granules in their cytoplasm. Neutrophils are essential for a functional host defense, as is evidenced by the occurrence of severe infections in individuals with … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Feb 2015 · 8,737 accessesView PDFCite

The Kariz system consists of underground channels that convey water from aquifers in highlands to the surface at lower levels by gravity. The problem of water shortage in arid and semi-arid regions is one of low rainfall and uneven distribution throughout the season, which … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 10,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhilosophical ProstitutionAmihud GileadProblem statement: This research was needed because some philosophers were subject to a form of blindness concerning prostitution. This blindness was caused mainly by a lack of philosophical insights. The context of the work was that valid arguments without such insights must be blind.
