Biomolecule cytochrome c (Cty c), a small molecule of a chain of amino acids with extraordinary electron transport, was helically wrapped around a semiconductive single-wall carbon nanotube (s-SWCNT) to form a molecular building block for uncooled infrared detection with two uniquely designed functionalities: exciton dissociation to free charge carriers at the heterojunction formed on the s-SWC...

extended abstract 1. introduction from about the 1950s, extraordinary growth of cities and increase of urban population have led to excessive growth of settlements in cities (muhallab taha, 2001(. this growth caused an unprecedented rise in land prices (zaheri & pour- mohammadi, 2006). land is an essential element in urban expansion and development (vander molen, 2002). therefore, quality and q...

Vaccines against S. pneumoniae, one of the most prevalent bacterial infections causing severe disease, rely on isolated capsular polysaccharide (CPS) that are conjugated to proteins. Such isolates contain a heterogeneous oligosaccharide mixture of different chain lengths and frame shifts. Access to defined synthetic S. pneumoniae CPS structures is desirable. Known syntheses of S. pneumoniae ser...

The Hazardous Material Removal Program will provide all academic departments and faculty with the opportunity to dispose of unneeded hazardous chemicals and radioactive material with no EH&S recharge. The disposal program will be organized building by building and advanced notice will be given to each department. Radioactive waste and materials along with routine chemical waste will be collecte...

This paper investigates the use of inerters for vibration suppression of a multistorey building structure. The inerter was proposed as a two-terminal replacement for the mass element, with the property that the applied force is proportional to the relative acceleration across its terminals. It completes the force-current mechanical-electrical network analogy, providing the mechanical equivalent...
