Development of Cochliomyia macellaria on Equine and Porcine Striated Muscle Tissue and Adult Attraction to Larval Resource
(2010-10-12)
Cochliomyia macellaria (Fabricius) has great importance in forensics and is commonly utilized in estimating the period of insect activity (PIA) on a corpse due to its rapid colonization time of fresh remains, active ...
A 10Gb/s Full On-chip Bang-Bang Clock and Data Recovery System Using an Adaptive Loop Bandwidth Strategy
(2010-10-12)
As demand for higher bandwidth I/O grows, the front end design of serial link
becomes significant to overcome stringent timing requirements on noisy and bandwidthlimited
channels. As a clock reconstructing module in a ...
Population Dynamics of Plain Chachalacas in the Lower Rio Grande Valley
(2011-02-22)
The Lower Rio Grande Valley (LRGV) of Texas is an ecologically diverse region in the United States and marks the northernmost extension for many tropical species of plants and animals. Since the early 1900s, 95% of the ...
Relationships Between Residual Feed Intake and Performance of Heifers of Diverse Breedtypes and Brahman Cows
(2010-10-12)
These studies were designed to evaluate the relationships between residual feed
intake (RFI) and performance of growing heifers and Brahman cows. Residual feed
intake was determined for 77 heifers of diverse breedtypes ...
Comparative Cost Analysis of Alternative Animal Tracing Strategies Directed Toward Foot and Mouth Disease Outbreaks in the Texas High Plains
(2010-07-14)
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the industry impact of a
hypothetical Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) outbreak in the Texas High Plains using
alternative animal tracing levels. To accomplish this objective, ...
Chemopreventive Potential of Sorghum with Different Phenolic Profiles
(2010-07-14)
Epidemiological evidence has correlated consumption of sorghum with reduced
incidences of gastrointestinal (GI) tract cancer, especially esophageal cancer. There is
little evidence on how phenols of sorghum may affect ...
Investigation Of The Friction Factor Behavior for Flat Plate Tests Of Smooth And Roughened Surfaces With Supply Pressures Up To 84 Bars
(2010-10-12)
Annular gas seal clearances were simulated with closely spaced parallel plates
using a Flat?Plate tester. The device is designed to measure the pressure gradient along
the test specimen. The main function of the Flat?Plate ...
Correlations Among Gender, Career Interests, Conservation Issues, And Curriculum Choice By Students In Wildlife And Fisheries Sciences At Texas A&M University From 2000 To 2008
(2010-10-12)
It is important to develop and assess student learning outcomes in order to
determine whether academic department goals and standards are being reached. One
aspect of this process involves alignment of learning outcomes ...
Nondestructive Testing of Overhead Transmission Lines: Numerical and Experimental Investigation
(2011-02-22)
Overhead transmission lines are periodically inspected using both on-ground and helicopter-aided visual inspection. Factors including sun glare, cloud cover, close proximity to power lines and the rapidly changing visual ...
Analysis of No-Flow Boundaries in Mixed Unconfined-Confined Aquifer Systems
(2010-07-14)
As human population increases, demand for water supplies will cause an increase in pumping rates from confined aquifers which may become unconfined after long-term pumping. Such an unconfined-confined conversion problem ...
