Arginine vasopressin influences male reproductive and social behaviours in several
vertebrate taxa 1 through its actions at the V 1a receptor in the brain. The neuroanatomical …

A procedure for solving compositional model equations is described. The procedure is based
on the Newton-Raphson iteration method. The equations and unknowns in the algorithm …

Several previous studies have applied finite-element methods to reservoir simulation
problems. Accurate solutions have been demonstrated with these methods; however, …

Spatial discretizations are studied for a series of fluid displacement problems. These problems
vary in complexity from the miscible and immiscible displacement problems to a multiple-…

For transcription to initiate, RNA polymerase must recognize and melt promoters. Selective
binding to the nontemplate strand of the −10 region of the promoter is central to this process. …

A class of difference methods that rigorously treat distorted grids and full 3D tensor
permeabilities is described. The approximations are based on conventional nodal Galerkin finite …

Studies in monogamous rodents have begun to elucidate the neural circuitry underlying the
formation and maintenance of selective pair bonds between mates. This research suggests …

Over the past 50 years, a great deal of behavioral endocrinological research has established
a central role for gonadal steroid hormones in the control of sexual behaviors in a wide …

Pharmacological studies in prairie voles have suggested that the neuropeptides oxytocin
and vasopressin play important roles in behaviors associated with monogamy, including …

Using a kinetic energy conservation approach, a number of simple analytic expressions are
derived for estimating the core size of tip vortices in the near-wake of rotors in hover and …
