On-line implementation of an adaptive speed filter and its experimental demonstration
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Sensorless speed estimation in induction machines is important for numerous applications like speed control and fault detection. Sensors are expensive and they are not reliable enough to be used in rugged industrial ...
Cross-cultural validity of the German translation of the Marital Satisfaction Inventory-Revised
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
It has become increasingly important for psychologists to interface and communicate across national boundaries. Adapting psychological instruments for use in different cultures not only saves time and money, but also ...
Attenuation of dilute aromatic hydrocarbon transport by a block copolymer in a compacted vertisol
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Municipal solid waste landfills in the United States are built with a composite bottom liner consisting of a flexible membrane liner of high-density polyethylene overlying a compacted soil liner. Hydrocarbons have been ...
The sequence and characterization of TRI1, a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in T-2 toxin biosynthesis
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
We report here the sequence and characterization of TRI1 (TRI15), a gene previously defined by two Fusarium sporotrichioides UV mutants, MB1716 and MB1370. Biochemical analysis of MB1716 had indicated that TRI1 was required ...
Sociocultural, feminist, and psychological influences on women's body satisfaction: a structural modeling analysis
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
This study explored sociocultural, feminist and psychological influences on women's body dissatisfaction by examining the manner in which sociocultural attitudes toward appearance, internalization of the thin ideal, feminist ...
Relative navigation for formation flying of spacecraft
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The objective of this thesis is to develop an efficient and robust approach for relative navigation and attitude estimation of spacecraft flying in formation. The approach developed here uses information from a new optical ...
Molecular cloning and characterization of genomic sequence tags (GSTs) from the PHYA, PHYB, and HY5 gene families of cotton (Gossypium species)
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The goals of this research project were to identify and characterize the cotton orthologs and paralogs of the Arabidopsis phytochrome genes and the cell elongation factor HY5. Based on close evolutionary relatedness between ...
An efficient tuning strategy to calibrate cubic EOS for compositional simulation
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
A new strategy for preparing an equation of state for use in compositional simulation is presented. The strategy comprises three major steps: extending the plus fraction and matching the saturation pressure, grouping, and ...
Characteristics of wild turkey hunters in Texas: comparing turkey stamp buyers to members of the National Wild Turkey Federation
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
This thesis examined wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) hunters in Texas. It also examined the differences between people who are members of the Texas Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation, and people who are not ...
Effects of disturbance regimes on honey mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa) cover and spatial pattern, and associated impacts on herbaceous production
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Herbaceous production and spatial pattern of vegetation were studied in a mesquite savanna in north Texas using a combination of field investigation and remote sensing techniques. Color infrared imagery was classified for ...
