In this article, the authors investigate whether coolant temperature affects soil cooling curves of soil with otherwise identical properties. The coolant temperature is representative of environmental temperature, and the authors hypothesized that differences in this temperature would not affect the freezing temperature of soil. Their findings validated their hypothesis providing helpful information relevant to understanding how frost heaves happen and how to predict their occurrence more accurately.

This study hypothesized that sodium chloride was taken up through plant root structures to facilitate water transportation, and that sodium chloride accumulation was directly proportional to the soil salinity. Results showed that most cells within the “bulb” structures were isotonic at a concentration approximately twice as high as that of root tissue and ambient soil salinity, therefore supporting the presented hypothesis.

The authors looked at which measurements from the NFL combine were the most predictive of success for defensemen in the NFL.

The authors looked at how activation of the sympathetic nervous system impacts short-term memory.

High school and university students have various motivations for participating in research, ranging from strengthening their applications for university to building skills for a research career. Jubair and Islam survey Bangladeshi high school and university students to uncover their motivations and inspirations for participating in research.

The authors investigated the shedding characteristics of polygons at a Reynolds number of 200.

In this study the authors develop an app for faster chess game entry method to help chess learners improve their game. This culminated in the Augmented Reality Chess Analyzer (ARChessAnalyzer) which uses traditional image and vision techniques for chess board recognition and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for chess piece recognition.

The authors investigate various methods to decrease heart rate after drinking caffeine.

The authors studied hippocampal gene expression in Alzheimer's disease.

This paper discusses how the conditions at the center of stars affects the nuclear reactions that happen inside these stars. We focused on the effect of temperature and density and found that these two properties interacted to create a greater effect when combined than when separate.
