(2022-04-21)Texas is often a neglected region when it comes to scholarly examinations of American Jewry. In reality, the Lone Star State has a history of Jewish settlement dating back to before the Texas Revolution and organized ...
-
(2012-10-19)The prevalence of multicore architectures has accentuated the need for scalable on-chip communication media. Various parallel applications and programming paradigms use a mix of unicast (one-to-one) and multicast (one-to-many) ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)The finite element method since its development in the 1950âÂÂs has been used extensively in solving complex problems involving partial differential equations. The conventional finite element methods use piecewise ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Babesia species have a worldwide distribution, affecting a wide range of mammalian hosts. The major route of transmission is inoculation by an infected Ixodid tick. Babesia species of major economic concern are those that ...
-
(2011-02-22)Babesiosis is caused by a genus of tick-transmitted apicomplexan parasites with considerable economic, medical, and veterinary impact. Bovine babesiosis is an important impediment to livestock production throughout the ...

(2021-06-04)Bachata is a genre of music and dance which originated in the Dominican Republic and became globally popular in the 1990s and early 2000s. As a social dance form, bachata provides a framework for dancers to enjoy human-to-human ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)Engineering directly impacts current and future regulatory policy decisions. The foundation of air pollution control and air pollution dispersion modeling lies in the math, chemistry, and physics of the environment. ...
-
(2011-10-21)Labels are one source of our judgments. By assigning labels to objects, we not only create references but we also group prior and current experiences together. The goal of this research is to investigate how labels influence ...
-
(2015-04-17)The Theta neuron model is a spiking neuron model which, unlike traditional Leaky-Integrate-and-Fire neurons, can model spike latencies, threshold adaptation, bistability of resting and tonic firing states, and more. Previous ...
-
(2011-10-21)The present work investigates the phenomena of whip and whirl for a rigid rotor contacting at two bearing locations. The idea originated from an anemometer consisting of a rotor with an elastically supported stator undergoing ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)We study behavior for negative times t of the 2D periodic Navier-Stokes equations and Burgers' original model for turbulence. Both systems are proved to have rich sets of solutions that exist for all t - R and increase ...
-
(2010-10-12)The transportation of organisms in the ballast water of cargo ships has been recognized as a source of invasive species despite current control measures. Pathogenic bacteria in the ballast tank have been studied but the ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Bacterial and fungal culturing was conducted on samples taken from the vaginal fornix of 106 cows, of which 42 had vaginitis and 64 had normal vaginas. The diagnosis of vaginitis and non-vaginitis samples was determined ...
-
(2021-08-04)Lyme disease and Human Granulocytic Anaplasmosis (HGA) are the two most reported tick-borne diseases in the US. Nevertheless, what happens locally at the skin during transmission of Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the causative ...
-
(2018-11-16)6:2 Fluorotelomer sulfonate (6:2 FTS) is an emerging environmental contaminant. As a transformation product from the degradation of formulant in the aqueous film-forming foams (AFFF), 6:2 FTS has been frequently found with ...
-
(2013-07-19)Pseudomonas syringae delivers a plethora of effector proteins into host cells to sabotage host immune responses and physiology to favor infection. We have previously shown that P. syringae pv. tomato DC3000 effector HopF2 ...
-
(2019-11-05)Recent work has shown that the bacterial flagellar motor is able to regulate its structure in order to adapt to long-lived perturbations in the cell’s thermal, chemical, electrical, and mechanical environments. These ...
-
(2017-05-03)Nutritional ecology provides a novel framework linking biotic factors, such as life-history traits of an animal, to abiotic factors, such as nutrients. Carrion serves as a nutrient-rich and ephemeral environment attracting ...
-
(2013-05-02)Bacterial contamination due to excessive levels of bacteria is a confounding problem and remediation of impaired watersheds relies on the detection of fecal indicator bacteria and then assessing the source of said bacteria. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Under the Clean Water Act (CWA) program the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) listed 110 stream segments with pathogenic bacteria impairment in 2000. The current study was conducted to characterize the ...
