• #### Effect of transient high temperature on high-strength concrete ﻿

(1987)
The effect of transient high temperature in the uniaxial compressive strength of high strength concrete was investigated. The temperatures studied varied from 100$\sp\circ$ to 800$\sp\circ$C. The presence of loads in a ...
• #### Effect of various water-reducing admixtures on the strength and workability of concrete ﻿

(1961)
At the present time there are no ASTM specifications, and very little information in the ACI Committee 212 Report, concerning water-reducing admixtures. Therefore, the engineer must turn elsewhere for impartial information ...
• #### Effect of vibrations on the yield strength of a low carbon steel ﻿

(1957)
Experimental results show that, when a specimen is subjected to vibration in the frequency range from 15 kc to 80 kc, the steady stress necessary to cause plastic deformation is appreciably reduced. This reduction is ...
• #### Effective computation of the analytic center of the solution set in linear programming using primal-dual interior-point methods ﻿

(1995)
The centrality property satisfied by the analytic center of the solution set makes its computation very valuable for some linear programming applications. One such application coming from the economic and management sciences ...
• #### EFFECTIVE DIFFUSIVITIES IN CHAR PARTICLES (DIFFUSION, FAST FOURIER TRANSFORM, PYROLYSIS, COAL, FLUIDIZED BED) ﻿

(1985)
Illinois #6, Illinois #5, Pittsburgh #8 coal and Texas Lignite particles of size range 150-16 mesh were pyrolyzed at a heating rate of 3.8 K/min up to 900(DEGREES)C. A stainless steel annular fluidized bed reactor yielded ...
• #### Effective finite termination procedures in interior-point methods for linear programming ﻿

(1998)
Due to the structure of the solution set, an exact solution to a linear program cannot be computed by an interior-point algorithm without adding features, such as finite termination procedures, to the algorithm. Finite ...

(1979)
• #### Effective Static Debugging via Compential Set-Based Analysis ﻿

(1997)
Sophisticated software systems are inherently complex. Understanding, debugging and maintaining such systems requires inferring high-level characteristics of the system's behavior from a myriad of low-level details. For ...
• #### Effective stiffness and punching failure of flat-plate structures ﻿

(1990)
The existing equivalent frame methods for lateral displacement analysis of flat-plate structures are one-value stiffness models which do not reflect the realistic response of structures. Based on the experimental data, the ...
• #### Effectiveness and performance analysis of a class of parallel robot controllers with fault tolerance ﻿

(1996)
In the past, robots were only applied to simple repetitive tasks, such as assembly line work. However robotics research now encompasses a broad spectrum of application possibilities. Robots are being considered for use in ...
• #### EFFECTS OF ANTIPLATELET AGENTS ON PLATELETS EXPOSED TO SHEAR STRESS ﻿

(1981)
Shear stress levels of the order of those associated with artifical heart valves and extracorporeal circulatory devices are sufficient to stimulate platelets to aggregate, to release chemicals that potentiate aggregation ...
• #### Effects of association and semantic relatedness under super- and subliminal conditions in the lexical decision task ﻿

(1996)
Two experiments investigated Shelton and Martin's (1992) claim that automatic priming effects in the lexical decision task appear for associatively related items only, but not for semantically related, unassociated items. ...
• #### Effects of axial forces on drillstring lateral vibrations ﻿

(1994)
Lateral vibrations of stabilized bottomhole assemblies (BHA) of drill-strings often exhibit quite complicated patterns. Previous work has taken into account nonlinearities due to fluid damping, wall contact, eccentric ...
• #### Effects of bubble coalescence, permeability, and degassing process on the transition from explosive to effusive eruption of rhyolitic magma ﻿

(2016-04-26)
This thesis consists of two parts that address bubble coalescence and the degassing process inside the magma conduit during volcanic eruptions. The first part focuses on analog fluid experiments and resultant scalings for ...
• #### Effects of coda voicing on onset /n/ and /l/ duration in American English ﻿

(2007)
Pre-Fortis Clipping is a phenomenon in which vowels are shorter before voiced codas than before voiceless codas. This study tests the hypothesis that the voicing feature in the coda of a syllable can also affect the duration ...
• #### Effects of commitment to preinterview impressions in employment interviews ﻿

(1988)
The interview is one of the most widely used instruments of selection available, yet it has been shown to have both poor reliability and validity. Numerous models of the interview process have attempted to both explain and ...
• #### Effects of cyclic strain on the gene expression of human umbilical vein endothelial cells as determined through microarray technology ﻿

(2003)
This thesis work resulted in microarray expression data of thousands of genes in vascular endothelial cells subjected to cyclic strain; and this data revealed genes showing expression changes between strained and control ...
• #### Effects of cyclical strain on the production of vasoactive materials by cultured human and bovine endothelial cells ﻿

(1992)
Much recent emphasis in vascular biology has focused on endothelial cells which form the inner lining of blood vessels. This unique arterial location exposes these cells directly to mechanical forces resulting from blood ...

(1957)
• #### Effects of dynamic mechanical stresses on mammalian cell metabolism ﻿

(1991)
The effects of dynamic mechanical stresses on the arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism of human platelets and on the cell growth properties of murine tumor cells were studied. The cells were stressed by suspending them in ...
