Mercury Removal from Aqueous Systems Using Commercial and Laboratory Prepared Metal Oxide Nanoparticles
(2010-10-12)
Five commercial metal oxide nanoparticles (CuO, SiO2, Fe2O3, TiO2 and Al2O3) have been individually screened for mercury removal in a batch reactor under bicarbonate buffered and non-buffered aqueous solutions (DI water). ...
Modeling an endangered species in an urban landscape: fountain darter (Etheostoma fonticola) survival in the Upper San Marcos River, Hays County, Texas
(2010-07-14)
To accommodate for human population growth along the Texas I-35 corridor,
land is becoming increasingly urban and decreasingly pervious, modifying the
infiltration and runoff rates in the Edwards Aquifer, especially to its ...
Analysis of a PML method applied to computation to resonances in open systems and acoustic scattering problems
(2010-01-14)
We consider computation of resonances in open systems and acoustic scattering
problems. These problems are posed on an unbounded domain and domain truncation
is required for the numerical computation. In this paper, a ...
Development of Micromachined Probes for Bio-Nano Applications
(2010-01-14)
The most commonly known macro scale probing devices are simply comprised
of metallic leads used for measuring electrical signals. On the other hand,
micromachined probing devices are realized using microfabrication techniques ...
Antimicrobial Interventions to Reduce Listeria spp. Contamination on Shrimp
(2010-01-14)
The effects of selected antimicrobials, applied singularly or in combination, and frozen or refrigerated storage conditions on the survival of Listeria spp. on inoculated shrimp was evaluated in this study. A combination ...
Volumes of certain loci of polynomials and their applicatoins
(2010-01-16)
To prove that a polynomial is nonnegative on Rn, one can try to show that it
is a sum of squares of polynomials (SOS). The latter problem is now known to be
reducible to a semi-definite programming (SDP) computation that ...
Perfectionism and Its Relationship to Racial Identity, Satisfaction with Life, Stress and Coping
(2010-10-12)
The study of perfectionism has grown over the past few years with most of the interest focused on the relationship between perfectionism and psychological functioning. Although the literature on perfectionism has continued ...
Algorithms and Software Tools for Extracting Coastal Morphological Information from Airborne LiDAR Data
(2010-07-14)
With the ever increasing population and economic activities in coastal areas, coastal
hazards have become a major concern for coastal management. The fundamental
requirement of coastal planning and management is the ...
Evaluation of Ambient Particulate Matter (PM) Sampler Performance Through Wind Tunnel Testing
(2010-07-14)
Previous studies have demonstrated that EPA approved federal reference method
(FRM) samplers can substantially misrepresent the fractions of particles being emitted
from agricultural operations due to the relationship ...
Provider-Level Manual Adaptation: Patterns, Predictors, and Impact on Child Outcomes
(2010-07-14)
Manualized, evidence-based treatments (EBTs) for children are being increasingly
incorporated in community mental health clinics. Yet, providers hold concerns about the
appropriateness of manuals for community populations, ...
