Analysis of the factors and the roles of HRD in organizational learning styles as identified by key informants at selected corporations in the Republic of Korea
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)
The core competency of the most effective organizations will be their capacity to learn in an increasingly complex and unpredictable business environment and HRD should expand its role to become a partner in the transformation ...
Scratch behavior of polymers
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
This dissertation work is focused on the analytical and numerical examination of
the mechanical response of polypropylene (PP) under scratch deformation by a semispherical
indenter. The finite element (FE) method is employed ...
Methods for the syntheses of compositionally diverse dendrimers
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Dendrimers are a unique class of macromolecules that present perfect branching on a molecular scale. The pattern of branching at the atomic scale is compared to the branching of trees, from whence dendrimers get their ...
Development of indices for agricultural drought monitoring using a spatially distributed hydrologic model
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Farming communities in the United States and around the world lose billions of dollars every year due to drought. Drought Indices such as the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) and Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) ...
Multi-physics investigation on the failure mechanism and short-time scale wave motion in flip-chip configuration
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
The demands for higher clock speeds and larger current magnitude in high-performance flip-chip electronic packaging configurations of small footprint have inevitably raised the concern over rapid thermal transients and ...
Robust design of control charts for autocorrelated processes with model uncertainty
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Statistical process control (SPC) procedures suitable for autocorrelated processes have been extensively investigated in recent years. The most popular method is the residual-based control chart. To implement this method, ...
The representation of migrant students in special education in the state of Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Migrant children are considered one of the most at-risk populations in the United States. They confront multiple obstacles of poverty, poor health, mobility, and limited English proficiency (LEP). These factors contribute ...
Bayesian wavelet approaches for parameter estimation and change point detection in long memory processes
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
The main goal of this research is to estimate the model parameters and to detect multiple change points in the long memory parameter of Gaussian ARFIMA(p, d, q) processes. Our approach is Bayesian and inference is done on ...
The maturational course of sequential memory and its relation to the development of frontal lobe functioning
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
The multidimensional nature of the frontal lobes serves to organize and coordinate brain functioning, playing a central and pervasive role in human cognition. The organizational and strategic nature of frontal lobe functioning ...
Design and analysis of iteratively decodable codes for ISI channels
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Recent advancements in iterative processing have allowed communication systems to perform close to capacity limits withmanageable complexity.For manychannels such as the AWGN and flat fading channels, codes that ...
