Effect of osmolytes on regulating the activities of the SSK1 response regulator from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(2009)
The multi-step His-Asp phosphorelay system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae allows cells to adapt to osmotic, oxidative and other environmental stresses. The pathway consists of a hybrid histidine kinase SLN1, a histidine-containing ...
Development and validation of metrics to evaluate robotics operator performance.
(2003)
This dissertation sought to develop and validate objective performance metrics for RMS operators to facilitate operator screening, provide training feedback, and examine performance changes over time. Preliminary investigation ...
NUMERICAL MODELING AND DIAGNOSTICS OF INTER- AND INTRA-WELL INTERFERENCE IN TIGHT OIL RESERVOIRS: TOWARDS OPTIMAL WELL SPACING DECISIONS
(2019)
The main objective of this dissertation is to provide sound understanding and mitigation solutions to the perplexing problem of well interference and its implications on completions design, well-spacing decisions, and ...
KINETIC STUDIES ON THE ROLE OF HYDROGEN-BONDING INTERACTIONS IN THE TiO2 PHOTOOXIDATION OF SMALL POLAR ORGANIC COMPOUNDS IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION
(2009)
Drinking and hygiene water sustainability is a current concern due to the rapid pace of global urbanization and the vast coverage gap between urban and rural areas worldwide. Therefore, water recycling has become a necessity ...
