Error analysis for randomized uniaxial stretch test on high strain materials and tissues
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
Many people have readily suggested different types of hyperelastic models for high strain materials and biotissues since the 1940Âs without validating them. But, there is no agreement for those models and no model is ...
American prisoner of war policy and practice from the Revolutionary War to the War on Terror
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
American prisoner of war (POW) policy consists of repeated improvisational efforts during wartime followed by few efforts to incorporate lessons learned. As such, in every war, the United States has improvised its system ...
Case study: copyright issues in distance education
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Over the years, much attention has been given to copyright law in literature and as it
pertains to textbooks and other original academic works. However, as the focus is narrowed to
the copyright law as it relates to distance ...
A study of heterotic relationships in sorghum
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
In sorghum, a predominantly self-pollinated crop, hybrid seed production relies exclusively on the cytoplasmic-genetic male sterility system. The system of hybrid development has caused sorghum breeding programs to develop ...
Sensor network and soft sensor design for stable nonlinear dynamic systems
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
In chemical processes, online measurements of all the process variables and parameters required for process control, monitoring and optimization are seldom available. The use of soft sensors or observers is, therefore, ...
The perceptions of intervention assistance teams (IATS) in reducing special education referrals in urban elementary schools
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
This was a quantitative study of 100 educators from various job codes within
the intervention assistance teams (IATs) of 16 schools. This study examined the
perceptions of IAT members of factors impacting referrals to ...
Termite baiting system technology: utilization and evaluation for integrated management of Reticulitermes flavipes (Kollar) and Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) subterranean termite populations, with seasonal variation and spatial patterns exhibited in foraging strategies
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
Commercial termite baiting systems were utilized and evaluated under real-world conditions in order to provide a comparison of efficacy in the management of subterranean termites. Three commercial termite baiting systems ...
Supergravities with positive definite potentials and AdS pp-waves
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
Ten-dimensional superstring theory (or the conjectured nonperturbative Mtheory
in eleven dimensions) is the most promising candidate for a consistent quantum
theory of gravity capable of unifying all known forces of ...
An asessment of the educational preparation of the Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine graduates
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
The purpose of this study was to determine the initial and actual professional
goals, the changes in initial and actual professional goals and the reasons for this change
of the different Texas A&M University veterinary ...
Investigation of glacial dynamics in lambert glacial basin using satellite remote sensing techniques
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
The Antarctic ice sheet mass budget is a very important factor for global sea level. An
understanding of the glacial dynamics of the Antarctic ice sheet are essential for mass
budget estimation. Utilizing a surface velocity ...
