Preparative chiral separations on cyclodextrin silica stationary phases
(1991)
Due to the fact that the enantiomers of chiral pharmaceuticals have different pharmacological effects, it is necessary to perform pharmacological studies on the enantiomers separately. For this to be possible, methods for ...
Synchronization for optical overlapping pulse-position modulation systems
(1991)
In direct-detection optical communication, overlapping pulse-position modulation (OPPM) was shown to exhibit some advantages over pulse-position modulation (PPM). OPPM is a modification of PPM allowing overlapping between ...
Prediction of cellular structure in polymer foams
(1992)
A theoretical model is presented which predicts the effect of physical properties and operating conditions on the structures formed during the polymer foaming processes. The nucleation rate expression is combined with the ...
Development and analysis of a hybrid random/token access protocol for high speed local area networks
(1994)
In this dissertation, we develop and analyze a local area network (LAN) protocol aimed at high data rates and that supports integrated traffic. We make use of a unidirectional dual bus as the network topology and develop ...
Tracheal mite, Acarapis woodi (Rennie) biology and ecology in the honey bee, Apis mellifera L
(1991)
The biology and ecology of the honey bee tracheal mite, Acarapis woodi (Rennie) were examined in a series of investigations. Mite reproduction was examined from cohorts of infested honey bees of known age dissected at ...
Investigation of fat replacement systems for low-fat, precooked, coarse-ground beef products
(1993)
The effects of various particle size reduction methods and incorporation of selected hydrocolloids on the sensory, textural and physical characteristics of precooked, low-fat beef patties were investigated. Sensory evaluation ...
Highway diplomacy : interregional connections and international relations
(1992)
This dissertation shows that global infrastructure is created by interaction among intermediary groups. These groups are part of an Intermediary Sector of the World Economy that has evolved in scale during the last three ...
Three essays in monetary policy
(1991)
This dissertation consists of three essays about the implications of monetary policy in response to aggregate disturbances and the role of wage indexation under the objective of minimizing output deviation from the full ...
The effect of related versus unrelated acquisition-divestiture transactions on the market values of acquiring and divesting firm : an event study
(1993)
Building on research from the marketing, management and finance disciplines, the proposed research considers the effect of acquisition and divestiture decisions on the market value of firms. Specifically, the primary ...
Testing for goodness of fit using nonparametric techniques
(1992)
When one fits a parametric model to data it is advisable to test the adequacy of the model through goodness-of-fit techniques. A nuisance of many existing nonparametric tests is that they depend on a smoothing parameter ...
