Male-female interaction among different geographic strains of the Gulf Coast tick Amblyomma maculatum Koch
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
The overall goal of this research was to examine the interactions of adult
Amblyomma maculatum Koch, the Gulf Coast tick, with respect to their utilization of
hosts and to male-female cross strain interaction. Historical ...
The subunit exchange rate of the cyanobacterial circadian clock component kaic is independent of phosphorylation state
(2009-05-15)
The study of the in vitro circadian oscillator of the cyanobacterium
Synechococcus elongatus has uncovered a complex interplay of its three protein
components. Synchronization of the clock's central oscillatory component, ...
A comparison of a Klockenburg style split keyboard and a standard PC keyboard on typing speed and posture
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
The current study compares biomechanical and productivity outcomes
related to the use of a Klockenburg (split and angled) style keyboard as opposed
to the use of a standard PC 101 style keyboard among office workers. The ...
Developing a tight gas sand advisor for completion and stimulation in tight gas reservoirs worldwide
(2009-05-15)
As the demand for energy worldwide increases, the oil and gas industry will need to
increase recovery from unconventional gas reservoirs (UGR). UGRs include Tight Gas
Sand (TGS), coalbed methane and gas shales. To economically ...
Cement fatigue and HPHT well integrity with application to life of well prediction
(2009-05-15)
In order to keep up with the world’s energy demands, oil and gas producing companies have taken the initiative to explore offshore reserves or drill deeper into previously existing wells. The consequence of this, however, ...
Associations between hydrological connectivity and resource partitioning among sympatric gar species (Lepisosteidae) in a Texas river and associated oxbows
(2009-05-15)
The middle Brazos River, located in east central Texas, is a meandering lowland
river that contains many oxbow lakes on its floodplain. Flood dynamics of the Brazos
River are aseasonal, and faunal exchange during lateral ...
Fabrication of Niobium sheet for RF cavities
(2009-05-15)
This thesis investigated the microstructure and mechanical property of RRR( high
purity) and RG (low purity) niobium (Nb) sheet material. RRR Nb is used in the
fabrication RF cavities. Our method involves processing bulk ...
Effective fracture geometry obtained with large water sand ratio
(2009-05-15)
Shale gas formation exhibits some unusual reservoir characteristics: nano-darcy
matrix permeability, presence of natural fractures and gas storage on the matrix
surface that makes it unique in many ways. It’s difficult to ...
Modeling well performance in compartmentalized gas reservoirs
(2009-05-15)
Predicting the performance of wells in compartmentalized reservoirs can be quite
challenging to most conventional reservoir engineering tools. The purpose of this
research is to develop a Compartmentalized Gas Depletion ...
Characterization of allantoinase from Eschericia coli
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
The purpose of this research was to characterize the Escherichia coli, E. coli,
allantoinase enzyme. Allantoinase catalyses the conversion allantoin to allantoate via
the hydrolysis of a cyclic amide bond and is coded for ...
