Abstract:
There are numerous applications for airborne imaging systems in remote sensing, and this thesis deals with a new microwave polarimetric radiometer technique for inferring ocean surface wind direction [3, 5, 7]. This technique is based upon the anisotropy of the polarized ocean blackbody emissions at microwave frequencies relative to the azimuth angle between the microwave radiometer antenna "look" direction and the direction of the wind. Because of the weak wind direction signature, it is important that all systematic brightness temperature (Tb) errors be eliminated, especially those that vary

Abstract:
The main purpose of this study was to determine the impact of depression and anxiety on mortality, CHD incidence, and quality-of-life in patients hospitalised for an acute myocardial infarction (MI). Questionnaires, including the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory were completed during hospitalisation by 288 MI patients, and four months and 12 months after discharge among survivors. Quality-of-life was assessed at both follow-up points using the Dartmouth COOP charts. Twenty-five (8.7%) patients died, 22 of cardiac causes, during the four month follow-up. Six

Abstract:
Highway bridges provide a critical lifeline during extreme seismic events and must maintain serviceability under a large range of earthquake intensities. Consequently, the advent of more computational power has allowed more advanced analysis approaches for predicting performance and vulnerability of highway bridges under these seismic loads. In traditional two-dimensional finite element analyses, it has been demonstrated that the incidence angle of the ground motion can play a significant role in structural response. As three-dimensional nonlinear time history analyses are used more frequently

The first orbiting X-ray observatory, HEAO-1 was launched in 1977, a mere twenty-eight (28) years ago.

Patient safety in healthcare has become a national objective. Healthcare organizations are striving to improve patient safety and have turned to high reliability organizations as those in which to model. One initiative taken on by healthcare is improving patient safety culture--shifting from one of a 'no harm, no foul' to a culture of learning that encourages the reporting of errors, even those in which patient harm does not occur. Lacking from the literature, however, is an understanding of how safety culture impacts outcomes. While there has been some research done in this area, and safety c

In some ways, it facilitates our recognizing the ideological lens through which Americans perceived China affairs.
