Development of an Automated Methodology for Calibration of Simplified Air-Side HVAC System Models and Estimation of Potential Savings from Retrofit/Commissioning Measures
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
This dissertation provides one methodology to determine potential energy savings
of buildings with limited information. This methodology is based upon the simplified
energy analysis procedure of HVAC systems and the control ...
Violence in public organizations: adapting contemporary theory to the case of schools
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
Violence in American schools has declined significantly over the last two decades but still remains an important topic on the public agenda. This unusual dialectic, driven by the recent increase in extreme cases of violence, ...
Topics in multiple hypotheses testing
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
It is common to test many hypotheses simultaneously in the application of statistics.
The probability of making a false discovery grows with the number of statistical tests
performed. When all the null hypotheses are true, ...
Synthesis of new, single-isomer quaternary ammonium derivatives of beta-cyclodextrin for electrophoretic enantiomer separations
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The isolation of individual enantiomers of drugs is an important subject of
interest in the pharmaceutical and medical fields, because stereochemistry can have a
significant effect on the biological activity of the drug. ...
Genotypic and phenotypic chacterization of maize testcross hybrids under stressed and non stressed conditions
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
Drought and low soil nitrogen are major factors limiting maize production in Sub-Saharan Africa. Genotypic and phenotypic characterization of maize testcross hybrids developed from four biparental populations: CML441 x ...

(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The primary purpose of this study was to determine user satisfaction of the
community education program as perceived by stakeholders in North East Independent
School District. A secondary purpose of this study was to examine ...
Pressure-induced growth and remodeling of arteries in a porcine aortic coarctation model
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
Hypertension is a risk factor for many cardiovascular and cerebrovascular
diseases such as atherosclerosis and stroke. It is therefore important to understand the
effect of hypertension on temporal growth and remodeling ...
Simultaneous process and molecular design/selection through property integration
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
The overall purpose of this work is to develop systematic methodology for the
simultaneous design and selection of processes and molecules (materials). A propertybased
approach is used to develop an interface between process ...
Supramolecules with dimolybdenum or chiral dirhodium units
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
This dissertation concerns the syntheses and characterization of supramolecules with quadruply bonded Mo2 4+ units, Mo2(DAniF)3
+ (DAniF = N,N'-di-p-anisylformamidinate) or cis-
Mo2(DAniF)2 2+, and chiral organometallic ...
Combinatorial design and synthesis of peptidomimics and small molecules for protein-protein interactions
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
The solid phase combinatorial method is an excellent tool for the modulation of
protein-protein interactions through focused library generations. Nucleophilic aromatic
substitution reactions with an iodinated template on ...
