(2009-05-15)Variations in characteristics of tropical deep convection are examined for an association with the stratospheric quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO). Eight years (1998-2005) of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1999)Considerable work has been done in devising mechanisms for providing service guarantees within a network. These schemes can be broadly classified into two categories, schemes that require maintaining state for each flow ...
-
(2009-05-15)Quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees will play a critically important role in future mobile wireless networks. In this dissertation, we study a set of QoS-driven resource allocation problems for mobile wireless communications ...
-
(2016-07-20)Support Vector Machines (SVMs) is a popular method to solve standard machine learning tasks like classification, regression or clustering. There are many algorithms to solve the linear SVM classification problem. However, ...
-
(2021-12-09)Understanding genetic architectures of yield and yield components of dryland and irrigated wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is pivotal to developing modern high-yielding germplasm and cultivars, while maintaining end-use quality ...
-
(2020-06-09)Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeders strive to develop high-yielding varieties with outstanding end-use quality attributes and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Wheat end-use quality, particularly bread making, ...
-
(2016-04-26)Cotton is the world’s leading natural textile fiber and oilseed crop, with a global economic impact of over $600 billion. However, few QTLs have been identified and linked with yield traits. In this study, a large number ...
-
(2009-05-15)As compared with other cereal grains, Sorghum bicolor shows very low levels ofprotein digestibility when exposed to proteolytic enzymes. Protein digestibility furtherdecreases when sorghum is cooked. It is speculated that ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Sorghum downy mildew (SDM) of maize is caused by the oomycete Peronosclerospora sorghi (Weston and Uppal) C. G. Shaw. The disease can cause devastating yield losses in maize (Zea mays L.). Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) ...
-
(2017-12-08)Mechanical characterization is an important and now frequently used tool for phenotyping plants for crop improvement, e.g. lodging resistance. Mechanics of materials and structures in response to various external stimuli ...
-
(2019-03-04)Three studies were conducted on peaches Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]. The first was to identify QTLs and SNP haplotypes linked to the predictive SNP marker(s) for six traits. The second was to assess peaches for postharvest ...
-
(2012-10-19)Recent initiatives for biofuel production have increased research and development of sweet sorghum. Currently, the initial major limitation to integrating sweet sorghum into existing production systems is the lack of sweet ...
-
(2017-05-10)In this dissertation, I present a modeling framework that provides modeling of 2D smooth meshes in arbitrary topology without any need for subdivision. In the framework, each edge of a quad face is represented by a smooth ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)The premise of this research is the concept, development, and application of an approximate relation for the material balance of abnormally-pressured gas reservoirs. The approximation is formulated directly from the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)Three experiments were conducted to determine quadratic growth functions based on cumulative protein and energy intake in broiler chickens during starter, grower, and finisher phases of feeding. Indian River male broiler ...

-
(Texas A&M University, 1999)It is standard lore that the voltage profile varies linearly in space within the electrolyte of a lead acid cell under slow, steady discharge. However, this hypothesis has never been put to the test. A recent theory predicts ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1997)Fast track construction is a special type of construction where construction methods and activities are planned to minimize the construction duration. Since the duration of the hardening period of concrete is largely ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1993)A compositional analysis of glycosaminoglycans (GAGS) in the reproductive tract of mares was performed. Uteri, ovaries and oviducts were obtained at a slaughter house, and stage of estrous cycle was estimated. Follicular ...
