Second-Order Modular Forms with Characters (2012)
Book Chapter

We introduce spaces of second-order modular forms for which the relevant action involves characters. We compute the dimensions of these spaces by constructing explicit bases.

Effects of manipulating hypothalamic triiodothyronine concentrations on seasonal body weight and torpor cycles in Siberian hamsters (2012)
Journal Article

Siberian hamsters display photoperiodically regulated annual cycles in body weight, appetite, and reproduction. Previous studies have revealed a profound up-regulation of type 3 deiodinase (DIO3) mRNA in the ventral ependyma of the hypothalamus assoc...

This paper presents a time-domain analysis of the intermodulation distortion (IMD) of a closed-loop Class D amplifier with either 1st-order or 2nd-order loop filter. The derived expression for the IMD indicates that there exist significant 3rd-order... Read More about Time-domain analysis of intermodulation distortion of closed-loop Class D amplifiers.

On the effects of mass and momentum transfer from droplets impacting on steady two-dimensional rimming flow in a horizontal cylinder (2012)
Journal Article
