Electronic structure of dimetal bonded systems: ditungsten, dimolybdenum and diruthenium systems
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
This dissertation investigates three topics in the field of multiple-bonded metal chemistry.
The first topic concerns the synthetic and theoretical considerations of ditungsten
formamidinates and guanidinates compounds. ...
Development of tandem time-of-flight instrumentation for the examination of prompt photodissociation of peptides using 193-nm radiation
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
The design and incorporation of a decelerating/accelerating cell into a reflectron
time-of-flight mass spectrometer is described for the examination of promptly-formed
photodissociation products of peptide ions. The ...
Control of cell division by nutrients, and ER stress signaling in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
Cell cycle progression of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells was monitored in
continuous cultures limited for glucose or nitrogen. The G1 cell cycle phase, before
initiation of DNA replication, did not exclusively expand when ...
Application and modeling of near-infrared frequency domain photon migration for monitoring pharmaceutical powder blending operations
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Frequency domain photon migration consists of launching an intensitymodulated
near-infrared light into the powder medium and measuring the amplitude,
mean-intensity, and phase shift of detected intensity modulated light ...
The role of stress in recovery of function after spinal cord injury
(2009-05-15)
Research has shown that exposure to just 6 minutes of uncontrollable shock 24
hours following contusion injury impairs locomotor recovery and leads to greater tissue
loss at the injury epicenter. Uncontrollable shock is ...
Characterization of asphalt concrete using anisotropic damage viscoelastic-viscoplastic model
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
This dissertation presents the integration of a damage viscoelastic constitutive
relationship with a viscoplastic relationship in order to develop a comprehensive
anisotropic damage viscoelastic-viscoplastic model that is ...
Storytelling and truthtelling: discursive practices of news-storytelling in Truman Capote, Norman Mailer, and John Hersey
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
Focusing on new-journalistic nonfiction novels by Truman Capote,
Norman Mailer, and John Hersey, this dissertation conceptualizes the
discursive practices of news-storytelling as a necessary matrix of storytelling
and ...
Operation transformation based concurrency control in group editors
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Collaborative editing systems (or group editors) allow a geographically dispersed
group of human users to view and modify shared multimedia documents, such as
research papers, design diagrams, web pages and source code ...
Stress reduction as a link between aerobic activity and academic performance experienced by undergraduate women through the use of the Student Recreation Center at Texas A&M University
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between aerobic activity and academic performance through stress reduction using a student recreational facility. Research indicated that learning in college ...
