Multi-endpoint, High-Throughput Study of Nanomaterial Toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans
(2015)The booming nanotechnology industry has raised public concerns about the environmental health and safety impact of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs). High-throughput assays are needed to obtain toxicity data for the rapidly ... -
Nonlinear elastic buckling and postbuckling analysis of cylindrical panels
(2015)This paper revisits the buckling analysis of a benchmark cylindrical panel undergoing snap-through when subjected to transverse loads. We show that previous studies either overestimated the buckling load and identified a ... -
Study of a piecewise linear dynamic system with negative and positive stiffness
(2014)The present paper mainly focuses on numerical and analytical study of a piecewise linear dynamic oscillator with negative stiffness followed by positive stiffness which has not been studied to date. The dynamic system of ... -
An analytical method for analyzing symmetry-breaking bifurcation and period-doubling bifurcation
(2014)A new modification of homotopy analysis method (HAM) is proposed in this paper. The auxiliary differential operator is specifically chosen so that more than one secular term must be eliminated. The proposed method can ... -
Modeled and observed fine particulate matter reductions from state attainment demonstrations
(2014)States rely upon photochemical models to predict the impacts of air quality attainment strategies, but the performance of those predictions is rarely evaluated retrospectively. State implementation plans (SIPs) developed ...
