Array combination for parallel imaging in Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
In Magnetic Resonance Imaging, the time required to generate an image is
proportional to the number of steps used to encode the spatial information. In rapid
imaging, an array of coil elements and receivers are used to ...
Analysis of programmable molecular electronic systems
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The continuing scaling down in size of microelectronics devices has motivated
the development of molecular electronic devices, often called moletronics, which use
molecules to function as electronic devices. One of the ...
Adaptive dynamic inversion of nonlinear systems subjected to control saturation constraints
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The adaptive dynamic inversion control methodology uses dynamic inversion to
calculate the control, and adaptation to compensate for the errors in the inversion
due to model uncertainties. Traditionally, adaptive control ...
A method of Weil sum in multivariate quadratic cryptosystem
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
A new cryptanalytic application is proposed for a number theoretic tool Weil sum
to the birthday attack against multivariate quadratic trapdoor function. This new
customization of the birthday attack is developed by ...
The role (relationship) of visual and motor imagery in estimating reach
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The primary intent of this study was to explore fundamental questions about the role and relationship between motor (MI) and visual (VI) imagery within the context of estimating reach. Experiment 1 examined and compared ...
POC algorithms based on spectral remote sensing data and its temporal and spatial variability in the Gulf of Mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
This dissertation consists of three studies dealing with particulate organic carbon
(POC). The first study describes the temporal and spatial variability of particulate matter
(PM) and POC, and physical processes that ...
A test of objectification theory and its relationship to feminist identity
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the validity of a sociocultural theory
of objectification with a population of older women. Specifically, the study sought to
determine if level of self-objectification influenced ...
Essays on horizontal merger simulation: the curse of dimensionality, retail price discrimination, and supply channel stage-games
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
In the words of Joel I. Klein, former Assistant Attorney General of the United
States, âÂÂ[a]ntitrust enforcement in the merger area has never been as time-consuming,
complex, or as central to the functioning of our ...
Physiochemical characteristics of controlled low strength materials influencing the electrochemical performance and service life of metallic materials
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
Controlled Low Strength Materials (CLSM) are cementitious self-compacting
materials, comprised of low cement content, supplementary cementing materials, fine
aggregates, and water. CLSM is typically used as an alternative ...
Evaluating the effectiveness of doing mathematics warm-up problems with an agricultural context on improving mathematics performance
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate one instructional activity that could be
used by agricultural science teachers to improve math performance of students, grades 7-
12. The treatment group (11 schools, 218 students) ...
