MULTI-CONTRAST OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FOR VARIOUS BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS
(2024-05-10)Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a label-free optical imaging technique that provides noninvasive visualization of biological tissue microstructures with micrometer-scale resolution and millimeter-scale penetration ... -
Multi-criteria optimization model for thermal recovery processes.
(1983)In the Loco field case study, the steam drive enhances the heavy oil recovery by decreasing the oil viscosity and increasing the injectivity; therefore, a quicker return of investment is predicted. However, the in-situ ... -
Multi-criteria simulation optimization with stochastic coefficients: Methods, performance measures, and test bed problems.
(2006)Three methods were developed to solve multi-criteria simulation optimization problems by adapting and extending genetic algorithms (GA), tabu search (TS), and lexicographic Nelder-Mead (LNM) methods. These modifications ... -
Multi-Drug Resistant Mycobacterium Abscessus Osteomyelitis Following an ATV Accident
(2020-05)INTRODUCTION: Mycobacterium abscessus (MA) is a rapidly-growing nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) found in water and soil that causes pulmonary, skin/soft tissue, and bone infections. Treatment of MA infections is difficult ... -
The multi-layered schema of an extended entity-relationship model /
(1984)In a database design process, the database model used is essential for producing a good conceptual schema. In some database models, like IMS and CODASYL, a conceptual schema contains too many implementation details which ... -
Multi-Material Extrusion Based Additive Manufacturing of Flexible Polymetric Materials
(2024-05-10)Direct ink writing (DIW) is a 3D printing technique, capable of printing many different polymers that cannot be 3D printed using other methods. Previous DIW attempts at the University of Oklahoma using a modified Ender 3 ... -
MULTI-MODAL BEHAVIOR AND CLUSTERING IN DYNAMICAL SYSTEM WITH APPLICATIONS TO WIND FARMS
(2009)he objective of this research is to develop a comprehensive model identification approach for complex multi-modal systems based on spectral theory for nonreversible Markov process that entails (i)model reduction techniques ... -
Multi-objective optimization of building mitigation strategies to address multiple hazards
(2021-05-14)This study develops a decision support framework for community resilience planning in the context of multiple hazards. The ability to prepare for and adjust to changing circumstances, as well as to withstand and recover ... -
Multi-Objective Query Optimization for Mobile-Cloud Database Environments Based on a Weighted Sum Model
(2016-12)In mobile-cloud database environments, users request services executed on a cloud through mobile devices. Requested data might be partially cached on the mobile device itself or must be processed on the cloud which leads ... -
MULTI-PHOTON TOLERANT QUANTUM KEY DISTRIBUTION PROTOCOLS FOR SECURED GLOBAL COMMUNICATION
(2017-07)This dissertation investigates the potential of multi-photon tolerant protocols for satellite-aided global quantum key distribution (QKD). Recent investigations like braided single-stage protocol and the implementation of ... -
Multi-Radar Analysis of the 20 May 2013 Moore, Oklahoma Supercell through Tornadogenesis and Intensification
(2019-12-13)On 20 May 2013, a violent, long-track EF-5 tornado impacted Moore, Oklahoma and surrounding areas, occurring within a network of radars operating in close proximity to the supercell. This network of radars consisted of ... -
A Multi-Resolution Ensemble Hybrid 4DEnVar with Variable Ensemble Sizes to Improve Global and Tropical Cyclone Track Numerical Prediction
(2022-05)One challenge associated with ensemble-based data assimilation (DA) is the quantitative estimation of the background error covariances. In the current global operational DA system, a reduced resolution background ensemble ... -
MULTI-SCALE CHARACTERIZATION OF THE WOODFORD SHALE IN WEST-CENTRAL OKLAHOMA: FROM SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE TO 3D SEISMIC
(2012)This dissertation focuses on the characterization of unconventional resource-shales for resource evaluation using the Woodford Shale as a primary example for this study. The limited understanding of the actual rock properties ... -
