Data management plan for the research grant, "Collaborative Research: Using Uncertainty Quantification and Validated Computational Models to Analyze Pumping Performance of Valveless, Tubular Hearts." This project will develop a computational model of the essential features of the circulatory system: the electrical activity of the heart, muscle contractions of the tube walls, and the fluid-structure interactions of the heart walls and blood within. This computational framework aims to be faithful to that of a real, model animal (tunicate, or sea squirt). The model will then be analyzed with mathematical tools to determine the physical limits of the pumping system. Results of this project will improve the understanding of human heart development at the earliest stages. Also, it will point to how the large, multi-chambered hearts of vertebrates could have evolved from smaller structures.

Article reveals that plants can integrate different local and systemic signals generated during conditions of stress combination. Furthermore, results show that the specific part at which plants sense the two co-occurring stresses makes a significant difference in how fast and efficient they acclimate.

This article proves an explicit integral representation—involving the pullback of a suitable Siegel Eisenstein series—for the twisted standard L-function associated to a holomorphic vector-valued Siegel cusp form of degree n and arbitrary level.

This article proves the existence of an infinite number of radial solutions to Δu + K(r)ƒ(u) = 0 with a nonlinear boundary condition on the exterior of the ball of radius R centered at the origin in ℝᴺ.

This article predicts that marine-derived bacteria should inhibit Vibrio pathogens and may be a source of unique antibiotic compounds.

This article proves the existence of radial solutions of Δu + K(r)ƒ(u) = 0 on the exterior of the ball, of radius R, centered at the origin in ℝᴺ such that limᵣ→∞u(r) = 0 if R > 0 is sufficiently small.
