Abstract This article describes the mixed-methods approach used by Gender and Adolescence: Global Evidence (GAGE) research programme. It discusses how qualitative quantitative methods can be both in isolation combined to learn about lives of adolescents low- middle-income countries (LMICs), focusing on methodological ethical approaches reach socially marginalised (including with disabilities, n...

in this paper, we study some ring theoretic properties of the amalgamated duplication ring $rbowtie i$ of a commutative noetherian ring $r$ along an ideal $i$ of $r$ which was introduced by d'anna and fontana. indeed, it is determined that when $rbowtie i$ satisfies serre's conditions $(r_n)$ and $(s_n)$, and when is a normal ring, a generalized cohen-macaulay ring and finally a filter ring.

Experimental heat flux measurements are made using both thermocouple and thin film gages in high-temperature, hypersonic flows. Thermocouple and thin film gages have individually been extensively used in relatively high and low enthalpy conditions respectively. In this study, three test conditions with varying (intermediate) stagnation enthalpies, Mach and Reynolds numbers are created in an exp...

in this paper, we introduce a class of $j$-quasipolar rings. let $r$ be a ring with identity. an element $a$ of a ring $r$ is called {it weakly $j$-quasipolar} if there exists $p^2 = pin comm^2(a)$ such that $a + p$ or $a-p$ are contained in $j(r)$ and the ring $r$ is called {it weakly $j$-quasipolar} if every element of $r$ is weakly $j$-quasipolar. we give many characterizations and investiga...

We have developed a computer-based screening strategy to search the dbEST database to find differentiation antigens that are expressed by cancers arising in nonessential normal tissues such as prostate, breast, and ovary (G. Vasmatzis et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 95: 300-304, 1998). Here, we report the identification of three new members of the GAGE/ PAGE family, termed XAGEs. XAGE-1 and...

The use of strain gages for low temperature thermal expansion measurements is increasing, due to it's convenience, and relative accuracy. The determination of thermal expansion with strain gages is complicated by "thermal output strain", a phenomena caused by the temperature dependence of the gage. If thermal output strain is properly compensated , strain gages may be used to measure thermal ex...

Cement composites with hybrid conductive fillers carbon nanotubes (CNT) and graphite products (GP), have been tested as strain sensors under varying temperatures (0 °C–60 °C), moisture conditions (0%–100% saturation degree (SD)). pastes 1% CNT 5% GP (purified expanded graphite) presented resistivity values between 50 75 Ohm·cm, their sensing response was observed to be independent of the loadin...

In the continuing series of interviews with famous Neuroscientists, I had the pleasure of meeting with Fred (Rusty) Gage at the last SfN meeting in Washington, DC. I was accompanied by a former student of mine, Anne Fagan, who had also been a graduate student in Rusty’s lab when he was at UCSD. Again, my main question was: “How did you become a famous neuroscientist?” I gave Rusty the choice of...
