Analysis of the optimal time to withdraw investments from hedge funds with alternative fee structures
(Oxford Academic, 2022-04)We study the optimal stopping problem arising from an investor determining the optimal time to withdraw from a hedge fund investment with a shared loss fee structure and a positive fee for assets under management. The ... -
Analytical Approach for Modeling of Multi Well CO2 Injection
(Elsevier, 2016-11-14)Disposal of carbon dioxide (CO2) into underground geological formations is considered a viable strategy for the mitigation of global warming. It aims to reduce greenhouse gases emitted from point sources such as power ... -
Analytical approach for modeling of multi well CO2 injection
(Elsevier, 2017-07-01)Disposal of carbon dioxide (CO2) into underground geological formations is considered a viable strategy for the mitigation of global warming. It aims to reduce greenhouse gases emitted from point sources such as power ... -
Analytical Study of Coupling Effects for Vibrations of Cable-Harnessed Beam Structures
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2019-01-22)This paper presents a distributed parameter model to study the effects of the harnessing cables on the dynamics of a host structure motivated by space structures applications. The structure is modeled using both Euler-Bernoulli ... -
Analyzing linearizability violations in the presence of read-modify-write operations
(Elsevier, 2018-10-01)We consider an algorithmic problem related to analyzing consistency anomalies in distributed storage systems. Specifically, given a history of read, write, and read-modify-write operations applied by clients, we quantify ... -
Anatexis of former arc magmatic rocks during oceanic subduction: A case study from the North Wulan gneiss complex
(Elsevier, 2018-09-01)Migmatites are widespread in the North Wulan gneiss complex from the South Qilian–North Qaidam orogenic belt, but their petrogenesis and ages are poorly constrained. Here, an integrated study of petrography, whole-rock ... -
An Anisotropic Subgrid-Scale Parameterization for Large-Eddy Simulations of Stratified Turbulence
(AMS, 2020-10-01)Subgrid-scale (SGS) parameterizations in atmosphere and ocean models are often defined independently in the horizontal and vertical directions because the grid spacing is not the same in these directions (anisotropic ... -
Anisotropy in the quasi-static and cyclic behavior of ZK60 extrusion: Characterization and fatigue modeling
(Elsevier, 2018-12-15)The quasi-static and strain-controlled fatigue characteristics of ZK60 extrusion have been investigated along three different directions: the extrusion direction (ED), the radial direction (RD), and 45° to the extrusion ... -
Annual carbon balance of a peatland 10 yr following restoration
(Copernicus Publications, 2013-05-02)Undisturbed peatlands represent long-term net sinks of carbon; however, peat extraction converts these systems into large and persistent sources of greenhouse gases. Although rewetting and restoration following peat ... -
Antibacterial Porous Polymeric Monolith Columns with Amphiphilic and Polycationic Character on Cross-linked PMMA Substrates for Cell Lysis Applications
(The Royal Society of Chemistry: RSC Advances, 2013-10-09)The application of porous polymeric monolith (PPM) columns as an effective tool for bacterial cell lysi within microfluidic chips is demonstrated. By taking advantage of the large surface area and controllable pore size ... -
An Antibiotic Protocol To Minimize Emergence Of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis
(Elsevier, 2014-04-15)A within-host model of the spread of tuberculosis is proposed here where the emergence of drug resistance and bacterial dormancy are simultaneously combined. We consider both sensitive and resistant strains of tuberculosis ... -
Appendix to "Characteristics, predictors, and reasons for regulatory body disciplinary action in health care: A scoping review"
(Journal of Medical Regulation, 2022-01)In this appendix to the manuscript "Characteristics, predictors, and reasons for regulatory body disciplinary action in health care: A scoping review”, the studies included in the scoping review are summarized. -
APPENDIX to DRAMbulism: Balancing Performance and Predictability through Dynamic Pipelining
(2020-03-02)Worst-case execution bounds for real-time programs are highly impacted by the latency of accessing hardware shared resources, such as off-chip DRAM. While many different memory controller designs have been proposed in the ... -

Application of a constant hole volume Sanchez–Lacombe equation of state to mixtures relevant to polymeric foaming
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)A variant of the Sanchez–Lacombe equation of state is applied to several polymers, blowing agents, and saturated mixtures of interest to the polymer foaming industry. These are low-density polyethylene– carbon dioxide and ... -
Application of a new grading scale for tear ferning in non-dry eye and dry eye subjects
(Elsevier, 2014-09-14)Purpose: To apply the Masmali tear ferning (TF) grading scale on non-dry eye (NDE) and dry eye (DE) subjects to test the validity of the grading scale in practice, and to describe the grading scale range for NDE and DE. ... -
Application of hardwood biochar as a reactive capping mat to stabilize mercury derived from contaminated floodplain soil and riverbank sediments
(Elsevier, 2019-02-20)Hardwood biochar (pyrolyzed at 700 °C), a potential candidate for Hg removal, has been proposed for use as reactive capping mats along groundwater discharge zones or riverbanks to control release of Hg from contaminated ... -
