Effect of milk fat globule membranes on emulsion stability of recombined sterilized milk
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Recombined oil-in-water emulsions containing 3% protein and 3% milk fat were prepared from low-heat nonfat dry milk, whey protein concentrate and anhydrous milk fat. The effect of casein to whey protein ratios of 80:20, ...
A descriptive study in student self-assessment practices
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Self-assessment as it usually occurs in writing portfolios provides the context for this study, which examines data from two diverse college settings. While much research has been conducted in conjunction with student ...
A visualized conflict resolution framework for software requirements negotiation
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Effective and efficient requirements negotiation, a key factor in the success of large software projects, is difficult when combining input from geographically distributed experts and reaching consensus from different ...
Rainforest composition and succession on a South Pacific island
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Interest in the dynamics and ecology of tropical forests has increased in recent years. However, the vast majority of studies undertaken by researchers in tropical environments have focused on neotropical forests and ...
The effects of flour types and storage temperatures on the staling of wheat flour tortillas
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Flours from 12 wheat cultivars, grown in two locations (Uvalde and McGregor) over two years (1999 and 2000), were processed into tortillas. The environment and cultivars affected protein content and quality, which significantly ...
The western river steamboat: structure and machinery, 1811 to 1860
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The western river steamboat contained the technology that transformed the trans-Appalachian West from a wilderness to an economically significant region of the country. The following study explores the origin and development ...
On the interaction of mesoscopic magnetic textures with superconductors
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
In this thesis, we studied the problem of the interaction between a superconducting thin film and a two-dimensional magnetization distribution. We considered the magnetization such that it depends on r, the radius, only. ...
Eidos in process: Darwin, Classical American philosophy and the possibility of belief
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
