A novel DNA damage detection technique based on the characteristic fluorescence lifetimes exhibited by Pico-Green-single-stranded DNA and -double-stranded DNA complexes is employed to establish the damage produced on DNA isolated from sheep white blood cells following gamma radiation. This technique, which incorporates key concepts such as alkaline unwinding buffers and higher unwinding rates o...

This paper is devoted to the investigation of a quasistatic evolution model for a continuum which undergoes damage and possibly fracture. In both cases, the model appears to be ill posed so that it is necessary to introduce a relaxed variational evolution preserving the irreversibility of the process, the minimality at each time, and the energy balance. From a mechanical point of view, it turns...

concrete bridge deck damage detection by measurement and monitoring variables related to vibration signatures is one of the main tasks of any bridge health monitoring system (bhms). generally damage puts some detectable/discoverable signs in the parameters of bridge vibration behavior. however, differences between frequency and mode shape before and after damage are not remarkable as vibration ...

Wind damage is one of the dominant natural disasters that have greatest impact on growth plantations. However, little attention has been paid to wind grade model. Based eucalyptus plantations from national forest inventory data and field investigations in Guangxi, ten significant factors are susceptible were selected perform multiple linear regression analysis Through assessing level based char...

Table 6: The best orders of the S-boxes (p = 2 ?48). 6 Appendix This appendix describes 136 orders of DES S-boxes for which the maximal probability of two-round iterative characteristics is as in DES or smaller. Table 6 describes the orders whose best characteristics have probability 2 ?48 , which is lower than the best characteristic of DES. Table 7 describes the orders whose best characterist...
