The kinetics and solvent effects on the thermal decomposition of isopropyl peroxide and 1, 2-dioxane
(Brock University, 1975-10-02)Rates of H2 formation have been determined for the thermal decomposition of isopropyl peroxide at l30o-l50oC in toluene and methanol and at l400C in isopropyl alcohol and water. Product studies have been carried out at ... -
Knowledge and attitudes of Registered Nurses toward pain /
(Brock University, 1999-05-21)This research provided relevant data to support pain research literature that finds nurses do not have the knowledge base that they require to sufficiently provide effective pain management. The data demonstrated that ... -
Kr-Ar laser Raman spectrometer for low temperature measurements /
(Brock University, 2004-06-29)A Czerny Mount double monochromator is used to measure Raman scattered radiation near 90" from a crystalline, Silicon sample. Incident light is provided by a mixed gas Kr-Ar laser, operating at 5145 A. The double ... -
L-Fuzzy Relations in Coq
(Brock University, 2014-09-05)Heyting categories, a variant of Dedekind categories, and Arrow categories provide a convenient framework for expressing and reasoning about fuzzy relations and programs based on those methods. In this thesis we present ... -
L-Fuzzy Structured Query Language
Lattice valued fuzziness is more general than crispness or fuzziness based on the unit interval. In this work, we present a query language for a lattice based fuzzy database. We define a Lattice Fuzzy Structured Query ... -
L-Glutamate uptake, decarboxylation to -aminobutyric acid and GABA efflux in isolated Asparagus sprengeri mesophyll cells
(Brock University, 1989-07-09)Addition of L-glutamate caused alkalinization of the medium surrounding Asparagus spreng.ri mesophyll cells. This suggests a H+/L-glutmate symport uptake system for L-glutamate. However stoichiometries of H+/L-glutamate ... -
