Conceptual Design of Biorefineries Through the Synthesis of Optimal Chemical-reaction Pathways
(2011-10-21)
Decreasing fossil fuel reserves and environmental concerns necessitate a shift toward biofuels. However, the chemistry of many biomass to fuel conversion pathways remains to be thoroughly studied. The future of biorefineries ...
Production of the Alpha-Particle Emitting Radionuclide Astatine-211 at the Texas A&M Cyclotron Institute
(2011-10-21)
The need of a stable production of At-211 is necessary to continue research in alpha-particle targeted radionuclide therapy. Our objectives were to establish the production of Astatine-211 at Texas A&M Cyclotron Institute, ...
Examing the Nonroutine Acts of Emergency Workers and How They Become Routine
(2011-10-21)
The purpose of this study is to determine how nonroutine acts performed by
iii
trained emergency workers developed into routine emergency acts and skills. I will be
specifically looking for concepts that are common throughout ...
Naturalness in F-SU(5)
(2014-08-06)
We take a tour through modern high energy theory, beginning with the Standard Model, Supersymmetry, Supergravity, and Grand Unified Theories. We then review the constraints imposed by experiments on our model parameters ...
Early Channel Evolution in the Middle Permian Brushy Canyon Formation, West Texas, USA
(2011-10-21)
Submarine channels are important conduits for sediment in deep marine environments, and understanding their formation is critical to modeling basin fill processes. Most models describing channel evolution focus on turbidity ...
Approximation Algorithms and Heuristics for a 2-depot, Heterogeneous Hamiltonian Path Problem
(2011-10-21)
Various civil and military applications of UAVs, or ground robots, require a set of vehicles to monitor a group of targets. Routing problems naturally arise in this setting where the operators of the vehicles have to plan ...
DESIGN OF THE TRANSCONDUCTANCE AMPLIFIER FOR FREQUENCY DOMAIN SAMPLING RECEIVER
(2010-01-16)
In this work, the circuit implementation of the front-end for Frequency Domain
(FD) Sampling Receiver is presented. Shooting for two different applications, two
transconductance amplifiers are designed.
A high linear ...
Petroleum Service Projects in the Gulf of Guinea
(2011-10-21)
The goal of this record of study is to examine the major facets involved in managing several petroleum service projects located in three different countries in the Gulf of Guinea simultaneously, while effectively engaging ...
Northern Fur Seals (Callorhinus ursinus) of the Commander Islands: Summer Feeding Trips, Winter Migrations and Interactions with Killer Whales (Orcinus orca)
(2011-10-21)
The northern fur seal (NFS) population on the Pribilof Islands (PI) is currently declining while the population on the Commander Islands (CI which includes Bering and Medny Islands) is stable. The reasons for the different ...
Influence of Nutrition during the Juvenile Period on Gene Expression Within the Hypothalamic Arcuate Nucleus and on Age at Puberty in Heifers
(2011-10-21)
Developmental changes within the hypothalamus are necessary for maturation of
the reproductive neuroendocrine axis. Recent reports have implicated several neuronal
networks in this process, but genes involved in their ...
