(2018-04-25)In the medical field, there is a growing need for tissue replacements that are able to mimic the native structure and function of failing human tissues. 3D bioprinting is a manufacturing technique with the potential to ...
-
Traditional renditions of the idea of community have faced many new critiques in the face of our increasingly globalized world that has come to be organized into national communities, or nation-states. Following a ...
-
(1991)Figgis' contention that Filmer was the first to defend the divine right of kings by using the law of nature was not seriously challenged by modern historians until the publication of G. Schochet's Patriarchalism in Political ...
-
(2017-05-03)To address the growing demand for environmentally responsible plastics within and beyond the chemical manufacturing industry, this thesis will examine the synthesis and characterization of a novel class of degradable ...
-
(1979)Due to rising cost of inputs and chemical resistant insects, cotton farmers in Texas are faced with increasing economic pressure. It is imperative that new cotton production systems be developed, if Texas cotton farmers ...
-
(2009-06-09)A strong link has been established between children playing in nature and improved physical and emotional health. The intriguing biophilia hypothesis suggests that humans are hardwired with an innate love of nature and ...
-
(2011-08-04)Calculations of the nuclear response function for the Isovector Giant Dipole Resonance (IVGDR) have been carried out in the past using the discretized Hartree-Fock Random Phase Approximation (HF-DRPA). In many cases they ...
-
(2021-05-04)A problem that exists in the Nautical Archaeology Digital Library at the Texas A&M University is that there is no easy way to organize a database of images incorporating good filtering, tagging, and large cropping capabilities. ...
-
Autonomous, or self-driving, vehicles have been making headlines in recent years as new technologies develop. While they are increasingly used for human transportation, it frequently remains important for autonomous rovers ...
-
(2011-08-08)We present near-infrared (J & Ks) observations of Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The goals of these observations are to better characterize the Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation at these wavelengths, especially ...
-
(2017-05-09)This research project proposes to develop, integrate and characterize a nebulizer system for the nasal pulmonary delivery of radiopharmaceuticals in the form of aerosols containing nanoparticles for dynamic imaging studies ...
-
(1982)Network hemodynamic models of the microcirculation were formulated on the basis of a phenomenological relationship between pressure and flow for each individual vessel and specific geometries for capillary vessel connectivity. ...
-
Explosive growth of the Internet, cluster computing, and storage technology has led to generation of enormous volumes of information and the need for scalable data computing. One of the central frameworks for such analysis ...
-
(2008-08-19)A new partitioning scheme, analogous to nodal domains, for the eigenfunctions of differential operators is constructed. The new scheme produces subdomains with Neumann boundaries instead of Dirichlet boundaries and will ...
-
(2011-01-11)Sympathy has not been not fully studied in the context of neural processes. Thanks to new methods of brain imaging and recording, the emotions anger, disgust, desire, and fear have been intensely studied, and new theories ...
-
Generic expressions make statements about nonspecific entities. Characterizing generic expressions make broad statements about classes of entities, without belonging to any temporal structure, while habitual generic ...
-
(2013-09-26)Motion planning (MP) is the problem of finding a valid path (e.g., collision free) from a start to a goal state for a movable object. MP is a complex problem with a myriad of applications, ranging from robotics, to ...
-
(2006-08-16)The ultimate goal of this research is to develop an online, non-destructive, incipient fault detection system that is able to detect incipient faults in transformers and other electric equipment before the faults become ...
-
Line-based musculoskeletal simulation is important in both computer graphics and biomechanics research. Software such as OpenSim can provide simulations of musculoskeletal dynamics and neural control where it would be ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)Why animals learn and how they do so has long been a topic of inquiry and research. Recently, King, Joynes, Meagher and Grau (1996) showed that exposure to a mild aversive event (a brief shock) can enhance both learning ...
