Water quality improvements in the Upper North Bosque River watershed due to phosphorous export through turfgrass sod
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
The Upper North Bosque River (UNBR) watershed is under a Total Maximum
Daily Load (TMDL) mandate to reduce Phosphorus (P) due to excess nutrients in the
watershed. To address these problems, Texas A&M University researchers ...
The effective approach for predicting viscosity of saturated and undersaturated reservoir oil
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
Predicting reservoir oil viscosity with numerical correlation equations using
field-measured variables is widely used in the petroleum industry. Most published
correlation equations, however, have never profoundly realized ...
Precision mechatronics lab robot development
(2009-05-15)
This thesis presents the results from a modification of a previously existing research
project titled the Intelligent Pothole Repair Vehicle (IPRV). The direction of the
research in this thesis was changed toward the ...
Bayesian prediction of modulus of elasticity of self consolidated concrete
(2009-05-15)
Current models of the modulus of elasticity, E , of concrete recommended by the
American Concrete Institute (ACI) and the American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (AASHTO) are derived only for ...
Patterns of antimicrobial resistance among enteric bacteria found in multi-site group-level cohorts of humans and swine
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) phenotypes and genotypic
characteristics (Class 1 integron and AMR gene cassettes) in commensal Escherichia coli
(EC) and vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium (EF) ...
Energy-optimal schedules of real-time jobs with hard deadlines
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
In this thesis, we develop algorithms that make optimal use of frequency scaling
to schedule jobs with real??time requirements.
Dynamic voltage scaling is a technique used to reduce energy consumption in
wide variety of ...
Assessment of estuarine habitats for resident and estuarine-dependent species: tools for conservation and management
(2009-05-15)
My research in coastal Ecuador and the northern Gulf of Mexico (GOM)
elucidated differences in value of shallow estuarine habitats for fishes and invertebrates.
I focused on mangrove and tidal river habitats in Ecuador, ...
HPLC separation of amines with a zirconia-based column coupled to a gas- phase chemiluminescence nitrogen specific detector (CLND)
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Gas phase chemiluminescence nitrogen specific detector (CLND)is used for the direct analysis of underivatized nitrogen-containing components such as alkylamines that can not be detected by the so called universal HPLC ...
Mechanisms of growth inhibition induced by methylene-substituted and ring-substituted dims in breast cancer cells
(2009-05-15)
One in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States and
estrogen receptor (ER) status largely influences the type and subsequent success of
treatment employed. Although ER-positive breast cancer can ...
Macrobenthic community structure and total sediment respiration at cold hydrocarbon seeps in the northern Gulf of Mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Cold seeps are areas of high biomass in the deep-sea, the impacts of these food-rich environments upon the sediment community is unknown in the Gulf of Mexico. The structure and function of benthic communities was ...
