Study of Alumina in Austenitic Stainless Steels
(2014-12-18)
The purpose of this work is to optimize the chemical composition as well as heat treatment for the creation and improvement of the mechanical performance in alumina forming austenitic stainless steel. Alumina forming ...
Gene and miR Expression in the Yellow Fever Mosquito Aedes aegypti
(2015-12-15)
When animals are exposed to new conditions they need to tune the expression of hundreds of genes in specific tissues and at a specific time requires the interplay of multiple processes. Females are required to locate ...
Factors Affecting Carbohydrate Production and the Formation of Transparent Exopolymer Particles (TEP) by Diatoms
(2014-03-25)
Diatoms exude large amounts of exopolymers (EPS), which are predominantly composed of carbohydrates. EPS may coagulate into transparent exopolymer particles (TEP). Sticky TEP affects the formation of aggregates and marine ...
The Prancing J-Settes: Race, Gender, and Class Politics and the Movements of Black Women in the African Diaspora
(2013-07-03)
For years Black women’s subjectivity in the use of their bodies and movements has been overshadowed or completely erased by dominant hegemonic systems that created its own narrative of Black women, their bodies, and their ...
End Functinalization of Polyisobutylenes and their Applications in Dyeing Polyolefins and in Homogeneous Catalysis
(2013-06-05)
Non-polar phase selectively soluble polyisobutylene (PIB) is a useful polymer as a polymer support for homogeneous catalysts. Substitution of PIB onto other useful ligands alters the solubility properties of original ...
Influence of Dietary Starch Inclusion on Cecal Environment and Microbial Populations in Horses
(2013-08-07)
Previous research has documented shifts in microbial hindgut populations resulting from dietary starch inclusion, and recent evidence indicates only 30% of equine cecal contents has been cultured successfully. Next generation ...
Examining A Hypersonic Turbulent Boundary Layer at Low Reynolds Number
(2013-05-15)
The purpose of the current study was to answer several questions related to hypersonic, low Reynolds number, turbulent boundary layers, of which available data related to turbulence quantities is scarce. To that end, a ...
Determining Nighttime Atmospheric Optical Depth Using Mars Exploration Rover Images
(2013-07-22)
Martian clouds and dust play an important part of the radiative transfer and energy balance budget. To assist in fully understanding the impact of clouds and dust, the complete diurnal cycle needs to be characterized. One ...
Cost and Area Comparison Per Student of the Public Elementary Schools in Texas based on the Project Delivery Systems
(2013-08-09)
It has been shown that there exists a correlation between the cost of construction of elementary schools and the project delivery systems. Previous research showed that Competitive Sealed proposal contract method of ...
Evalutaion of Multi-Stage Sandstone Acidizing Uging an Organic Mud Acid and a Clay Stabalizer
(2013-05-29)
Acidizing sandstone reservoirs is a complex process. If not fully studied, it could lead to formation damage. A combination of HCl/HF has been widely used to stimulate sandstone reservoirs. However, the success rate is low ...
