This article is concerned with a dual mixed formulation of the Navier-Stokes system in a polygonal domain of the plane with Dirichlet boundary conditions and its numerical approximation. The gradient tensor, a quantity of practical interest, is introduced as a new unknown. The problem is then approximated by a mixed finite element method. Quasi-optimal a priori error estimates are obtained. The...

BACKGROUND These studies sought to investigate the relation between social desirability and self-reported health risk behaviors (e.g., alcohol use, drug use, smoking) in web-based research. METHODS Three longitudinal studies (Study 1: N = 5612, 51% women; Study 2: N = 619, 60%; Study 3: N = 846, 59%) among randomly selected members of two online panels (Dutch; German) using several social des...

The aim of this study was to analyze the degree of prediction to which the goal orientation adopted by the student and the motivational climate created by the teacher as perceived by students in physical education classes, have on the students' self-determined behaviors. The sample included 846 high school students from the Murcia region (Spain) aged 12-19 years old. The Spanish versions of the...

Most of the existing literature on CRM value chain creation has focused on the effect of customer satisfaction and customer loyalty on customer profitability. In contrast, little has been studied about the CRM value creation chain at individual customer level and the role of self-construal (i.e., independent self-construal and interdependent self-construal) in such a chain. This research aims t...

This study focuses on the biological activities of eleven chitosan products with a viscosity-average molecular weight ranging from 22 to 846 kDa in combination with the most active monoterpenes (geraniol and thymol), out of 10 tested, against four plant pathogenic bacteria, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Erwinia carotovora, Corynebacterium fascians, and Pseudomonas solanacearum. The antibacterial a...

changes observed on electron microscopy, and the mtDNA mutations. The electron microscopy study of peptic ulcer tissue showed swollen mitochondria and a loss of cristae within the mitochondrial cytoplasm. The mtDNA copy number of the peptic ulcer tissue samples was 2.5 times higher than that from the blood cells (2 180 547 vs 863 846 copies/ L). Proposed interactions among host, environment, an...

HIV transmission continues in Romania, despite decades of concerned efforts to inform the public about HIV and its consequences and reduce individual risk behaviors. This is a retrospective study carried out in 2013 in the western part of Romania, in the counties Arad, CaraşSeverin, Hunedoara and Timiş. In 2013 there are 846 patients with HIV/AIDS in active evidence, 86.4% in combined antiretro...
