differences among SAD, S-SAD (subsyndromal SAD), ...
Modeling and identification of an axially-moving cantilever beam
(2002)
An axially-moving cantilever beam is used to study identification o f time-varying
systems. A circuitry for DC motor current control and sensor conditioning is built. The
circuitry meets the design requirement of controlling ...
Characterization of the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2)rDNA region among the Elaphostrongylinae (Nematoda:Protostrongylidae)
(2002)
Four species of elaphostrongyline nematodes are known to infect cervids in North
America. One species, Parelaphostrongylus tenuis, can cause neurologic disease
(parelaphostrongylosis) in cervid hosts other than white ...

Determinants of incidents in a forensic psychiatric program
(2002)
Nursing staff in forensic psychiatric contexts are
significantly more likely to be the victims of assault-related
incidents than patients. Evidence in the scientific
literature warrants the consideration of interpersonal ...
Optically-excited excitonic states in semiconductor superlattices
(2002)
An efficient method for calculation of the exciton states in type-I superlattices is developed and
demonstrated. The model, based on the work of Dignam & Sipe [Phys. Rev. B 43,4097 (1991)],
includes bound and quasi-continuous ...
Strength and risk in incarcerated youth
(2002)
Assessment of delinquent youth typically centers around deficits and pathologies. There is an

programs that adequately address ...
Magnetic fabrics from sheeted dikes reveal regional magma flow patterns, and the spacing and dimensions of ophiolite magma-chambers, Troodos ophiolite, Cyprus
(2002)
Orientation-distributions of crystals were determined for 1289 specimens of the
Sheeted Dike Complex of the Troodos ophiolite, located on the island of Cyprus. These
were inferred from anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility ...
