(1978)The resistivity of canine blood was measured at 37°C over a hematocrit range of 0 to 81 percent, with a variable-length conductivity cell similar to one developed by Dr. L. A. Geddes of Purdue University and his associates. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)The purpose of this project was to perform micro-simulation analyses on intersections near Highway-Railroad Grade Crossings to determine if controlling mean train speed and train speed variability would improve safety and ...
-
(1982)Concern for the environment has prompted this study of the overt immediate behaviors of two environmental occur ring programs: recreation and nature programs. Naturalis tic Observation through time lapse photography is the ...
-
(2011-08-08)The theory of sensori-computational circuits provides a capable framework for the description and optimization of robotic systems, including on-line optimizations. This theory, however, is inadequate in that it does not ...
-
(1982)It now has become necessary to educate the architect in the skill of computer acquisition. In a market such as the computer industry’s, where information three months old is considered ancient or obsolete, it is very ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)In 1998, pork prices fell to an all time low. Across the industry, concern was expressed for research as to what led to this price crash. Capacity constraints at the packer level have been a key area of concern. This study ...
-
(1982)The validity of simple equations for the penetration of diesel fuel sprays in engine cylinders was investigated. Several forms of these simple equations obtained from the Literature were compared to engine data, both with ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)The goal of PERL MRI in its most basic form is single shot imaging without the need to rapidly switch gradients to encode spatial information into the signal. PERL MRI incorporates the application of the PERL field into ...
-
(1977)The effect of random mixing of marked and unmarked fish on the accuracy of a Petersen population size estmate was investigated. By comparing the ratio of marked and unmarked fish in a sample catch at different points in ...
-
(2012-04-20)Size dependent properties of Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) in micro and nano scales have gained an increasing attention due to the existing and potential applications of SMAs in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and small ...
-
(1994)F pilus filaments extend from the surface of bacteria carrying plasmid F and initiate intercellular contacts that allow conjugative DNA transfer to other cells. Secretion of the subunits in this filament depends on a small ...
-
(2012-07-11)The effect of partial gravity (G) (as on the Lunar surface) on weightbearing bone remains undefined; a new model (the partial G mouse) provides for graded reductions in weightbearing. It was hypothesized that mice exposed ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)Anglo-Israelism created a national history for the British people that justified and explained the Empire they had created. This movement stated that the British people were the literal descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes ...
-
(2012-04-30)Since the early 1970’s, religious violence and terrorism have become salient topics in American political and social discourse. The growing prominence of religious violence underscores the need to understand these acts ...
-
(1984)All of these linguists have missed the boat, however, by not Following up the suggestion that Mencken gave. The clearest evidence for the influence or one language or dialect on another lies in the grammatical systems of ...
-
(1996)To design and develop an animated character from within the pre-written musical, The Dancing Princesses by Michael Weiner and Alan Zachary. The end character design should be able to function in a brief animation in the ...
-
(1983)Many researchers conclude that one of the major obstacles to overcome in the widespread acceptance of plant oils as a fuel source in diesel engines is the elimination of residues that wear engine parts, contaminate engine ...
-
(1990)The increase in size and complexity of scientific and engineering datasets has dictated the need for efficient Computer Graphics systems for visualization. Such graphics systems require high speed transformation of vertices ...
-
(1997)In the area of underwater vehicle design, the development of highly maneuverable vehicles is presently of interest with their design being based on the swimming techniques and anatomic structures of fish; primarily the ...
-
(1997)Americans now live in a world of convenience. The emergence of dual income families has resulted in a population that relies heavily on prepackaged/preprepared foods. The quality of commercially prepared foods is definitely ...
