CATALYTIC CONVERSION OF FURFURAL TO MORE UPGRADABLE PRODUCTS OVER BIFUNCTIONAL CATALYST
(2017)
Furanics are produced in high abundance from the decomposition of biomass. The thermal and chemical instability of these species leads to the formation of humins upon condensation. The ring rearrangement of furfural via ...
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS OF AN ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL LEADING TO ACADEMIC SUCCESS: A CASE STUDY OF ONE SUCCESSFUL SCHOOL THAT ATTENDED TO THE CONSTRUCTS OF SELF DETERMINATION THEORY
(2017)
There is a dearth of literature regarding alternative school practices based on theoretical premises leading to successful outcomes for students. The literature reveals outcomes that alternative school practitioners have ...
COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF USER-CELL ASSOCIATION METHODS FOR MILIMETER WAVE MASSIVE MIMO BY DEVELOPING A SYSTEM LEVEL SIMULATOR FOR HETNETS
(2017)
Massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) base station deployments and millimeter wave (mmWave) spectrum utilization have been identified as promising disruptive technologies, along with ultra-dense Heterogeneous ...
Adaptations in antagonist co-activation: Role in the repeated-bout effect
(2017-12-07)
Eccentric exercise results in an adaptation which attenuates muscle damage from subsequent exercise—termed the “repeated-bout effect (RBE).” Purpose: Study examined antagonist co-activation and motor-unit recruitment ...

Convection Initiation By Heterogeneous Great Plains Low-Level Jets
(2017)
Nocturnal convection is a common feature of the Great Plains region. Forecasting this convection, however, is challenging, as the processes leading up to convection initiation (CI) can be subtle. It has been discussed in ...
THE EFFECTS OF CASTOR CANADENSIS (NORTH AMERICAN BEAVER) COLONIZATION ON A MINE DRAINAGE IMPACTED STREAM
(2017-12)
This study investigated four aspects of North American Beaver (Castor canadensis) colonization: (1) retention of metals in-stream due to the presence of dams, (2) metals contamination and leachability of sediments (3) ...
TRANSIENT TEMPERATURE BEHAVIOR IN WELLBORE AND SURROUNDING FORMATION
(2017-05-12)
Transient temperature behavior in a wellbore develops as a result of heat exchange between fluid in the wellbore and surrounding formation as the hot fluid from reservoir moves upward in production, or vice versa during ...
The Rhetoric of Ecological Food: Environmental and Technological God Terms in Blue Apron, Soylent, and Slow Food
(2017-05-12)
The rhetoric and language surrounding technologically and environmentally oriented food systems illustrate that what and how we eat shapes the way we think about food, ecology, and the world. Analyzing the rhetoric of ...
INVESTIGATING MICROSTRUCTURAL HETEROGENEITY IN ORGANIC SHALE VIA LARGE-SCALE, HIGH RESOLUTION SEM IMAGING
(2017)
The physical properties of shale are fundamentally controlled by its microstructure; however, shale is problematic due to microstructural heterogeneity that can exist across multiple scales. This creates difficulty in ...
