Equilibrium and hydrodynamic studies of water extraction from fermentation broth
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Previous studies using tertiary amines to extract water from reagent-grade carboxylate salts (calcium acetate, propionate, and butyrate) have shown selectivity for water and not for the carboxylate salts. These results ...
Age, gender, and breed as risk factors for acute and chronic equine laminitis
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
A prospective case-control study of risk factors for laminitis analyzed data of the 258 incident cases seen at six collaborating veterinary teaching hospitals over a 32-month period. Case-control pairs were matched on ...
Information transfer between dissimilar areal units: a comparison between areal weighting and the dasymetric method
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
When information is available in areal units not compatible with the study area boundaries, the values must be transferred between these dissimilar polygons. Areal interpolation is the technique used to calculate these ...
Robustness of optimal binary filters: analysis and design
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Optimal binary alters estimates an unobserved ideal aphics. image from an observed image. Optimality is with respect to some error criterion, which is mean absolute error for the binary images. Both the ideal and observed ...
Taxometric analysis of the questionnaire of experiences of dissociation
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
The latent structure of the psychological construct of dissociation was investigated via the MAMBAC and MAXCOV barometric procedures. Data for the analyses were collected from 988 undergraduate university students and 102 ...
Luteinizing hormone concentrations in mares foaling in thin body condition and fed a fat-supplemented diet
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Twenty-seven mares with body condition scores (BCS) of = 4.0 were stratified by expected foaling date and age, and assigned to one of three treatment groups. The control-thin (T) group was fed a conventional diet to maintain ...
Functional role of tropomyosin on thin filament activation and cross bridge kinetics in transgenic cardiac muscle: a model study
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Regulation of contractile activity in cardiac muscle is a cooperative interaction between thick and thin filament sarcomeric proteins. Tropomyosin (Tm), an essential thin filament protein, interacts with troponin (Tn) and ...
Simulation of the T6 bridge rail system using LS-DYNA3D
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Full-scale crash testing currently the primary means of evaluating trustworthiness of roadside safety structures, such as bridge rails. However, explicit finite element analysis is rapidly becoming a feasible alternative ...
Gas separation with oligomer-modified inorganic membranes
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Membranes are increasingly replacing the traditional methods of gas separation, such as distillation and absorption. In many industrial applications, like removal of small amounts of higher hydrocarbons from natural gas ...
Delineation of management units and integration of crop simulation into a precision farming GIS environment
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Precision farming is a method used to track field variability in order to optimize site specific treatments. There are many tools used by precision farmers to help them identify the variability and where it exists. In most ...
