Locally Adaptive Non‐Hydrostatic Shallow Water Extension for Moving Bottom‐Generated Waves

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This study proposes a locally adaptive non‐hydrostatic model, which is based on the non‐hydrostatic extension of the shallow water equations (SWE) with a quadratic pressure relation, and applies it to wave propagation generated by a moving bottom. To obtain the locally adaptive model, we investigate several potential adaptivity criteria based on the ...

Merit Pay Adoption and Labor Productivity in South Korean Firms

open access: yesHuman Resource Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Merit pay is a compensation system that raises employees' base salaries, contingent on their prior performance. Despite its widespread use, the evidence regarding its impact on organizational performance remains inconclusive. In this research, we focus on the unique semi‐permanent and cumulative features of merit pay and draw on the ...

The relationship between cellular protein content and selenium accumulation in freshwater microalgae

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Variability in the bioconcentration of selenium (Se) by primary producers at the base of the food web results in uncertainty in predictions of bioaccumulation and ecological risk to higher trophic level organisms. Water chemistry, speciation of Se, and periphyton community composition have all been suggested as factors that contribute to ...

Downconversion Master Slave OCT With a Bidirectional Sweeping Laser

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the challenges of signal processing when using optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging instruments driven by asymmetric MHz bidirectional sweeping lasers. A downconversion master–slave (DMS) method is proposed as a viable alternative to the traditional OCT protocol.

Lysosomal Delivery of Bioactive Proteins to Living Human Cells via Engineered Exosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Exosomes are naturally secreted nanovesicles derived from mammalian cells that are used for intercellular communication in vivo. As a result, they can potentially be used for intracellular delivery of therapeutics for disease treatment. We have developed
