THE MECHANICAL STIMULUS TO CRYSTALLIZATION. 5

Estimating the Mechanical Properties of Travertine Building Stones Due to Salt Crystallization Using Multivariate Regression Analysis

     Salt crystallization is one of the most powerful weathering agents that may cause a rapid change in the mechanical properties of stones, and thus limit their durability. Consequently, determining the mechanical properties of stones due to salt crystallization is important for natural building stones used in marine environmental and mild climatic conditions, which expose excessive salt crys...

Brain Response to Non-Painful Mechanical Stimulus to Lumbar Spine

Pressure application to the lumbar spine is an important assessment and treatment method of low back pain. However, few studies have characterized brain activation patterns in response to mechanical pressure. The objective of this study was to map brain activation associated with various levels of mechanical pressure to the lumbar spine in healthy subjects. Fifteen healthy subjects underwent fu...

Crystallization Studies of 5'-deoxyadenosyl Radical Enzymes

ion from a cysteine thiol, which then catalyzes the reduction of ribonucleotides (Figure 1.3). While the overall mechanism of this reaction varies greatly from that of the isomerases, in every case, the reaction involves abstraction of a hydrogen atom by Ado*. 1.2.3. Adenosylcobalamin transport and activation For AdoCbl-dependent isomerases in the absence of substrate, the cobalamin homolysis p...

The Effects of Mechanical Stimulus Induced Osteocyte Apoptosis on Vascularization and Mechanical Properties of Bone

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
