Reliability of a telephone questionnaire measuring diet and activity level in cats
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
A telephone questionnaire was developed to collect information on diet and activity level as part of a study examining long-term outcome of early age versus traditional age gonadectomy in cats. The objectives of this study ...
Inhomogeneous deformation of a cone of Neo-Hookean material
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
In this work we investigate, the nonlinear, elastic deformation of a cone made of a Neo-Hookean material. We use a semi-inverse method and assume a specific form of the displacement and the corresponding structure of the ...
Trapping capacity of fault zones, downdip Yegua Formation, Texas Gulf Coast basin
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The homogenization of sediment from shearing forms traps in both the hanging wall and footwall due to capillary pressure differences. The sheared zone associated with large faults can form traps. Sheared zones associated ...
Sequence of surface meteorological variables with the passage of winter cold fronts in the United States east of the Rocky Mountains
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
According to the 80-year-old Norwegian cyclone model, fronts are pressure troughs, extensions of a mid-latitude cyclone. Thus, a cold frontal passage is evidenced at the surface by a minimum in air pressure and a corresponding ...
Evidence of programmed cell death in maize suspension cultures
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Programmed cell death (PCD) is an active cell death process involved in the selective elimination of unwanted cells, and it is found throughout animal and plant kingdoms. The term apoptosis usually refers to a morphological ...
Mourning dove differential use of reclaimed surface-mined lands in east-central Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The mourning dove (Zeniada macroura) is the most abundant and widespread North American game bird despite the fact that declines have been observed throughout much of the United States. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's ...
Interpretation of side-scan sonar images from hydrocarbon seep areas of the Louisiana continental slope
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Side-scan sonar images from the Louisiana continental slope were examined to study hydrocarbon seepage and related surficial geologic seafloor features. Three study areas are located in the Green Canyon area and the Garden ...
Regional characteristics, timing, and significance of dissolution and collapse features in Lower Cretaceous carbonate platform strata, Desoto Canyon area, offshore Alabama-Florida
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Lower Cretaceous carbonate strata from the central DeSoto Canyon area, offshore Alabama and Florida were studied to determine the extent, intensity, and controlling factors on dissolution-collapse features within these ...
Machine learning approaches to biochemical knowledge discovery
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
In the biological sciences, there has been a tremendous growth in the amount of data generated by scientists, from the sequencing of DNA to the determination of three-dimensional structures of proteins. Due to the size ...
Effects of cryogenic equal channel angular deformation on copper 101
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Grain size in polycrystalline metallic materials significantly influences physical and mechanical properties. At room temperature, large grain size is generally associated with low strength, hardness and ductility. Fine ...
