ENERGY DISSIPATION IN TWELVE-FOOT BROKEN-BACK CULVERTS USING LABORATORY MODELS (FHWA-OK-13-07)
(2013-9)
This report represents Phase IV of broken-back culverts with a drop of 12 feet. The first phase of this research was performed with a drop of 24 feet, the second phase of this research was carried with for a drop of 6 feet, ...
Capitalizing resolving power of density gradient ultracentrifugation by freezing and precisely slicing centrifuged solution : enabling identification of complex proteins from mitochondria by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry
(2016)
Density gradient centrifugation is widely utilized for various high purity sample preparations, and density gradient ultracentrifugation (DGU) is often used for more resolution-demanding purification of organelles and ...
UNDERSTANDING CHINESE COUPLES: AN EXPLORATION OF HOUSEWORK TIME, LEISURE AND SLEEP GAPS, AND MENTAL HEALTH
(2016-05-13)
This dissertation examines the allocation of housework time, the leisure and the sleep gaps, and the mental health among married couples in China. Using one of the very first panel data about Chinese families, this ...
A Phenomenological Exploration of Self-Directed Learning Among Successful Minority Entrepreneurs
(2013)
This transcendental, phenomenological study explored the Self-directed learning (SDL) of 10 successful minority entrepreneurs. Two SDL theories serve as lenses for the study, Spear and Mocker's (1984) Organizing Circumstance ...
Solid Acid Catalyzed Polysaccharide Hydrolysis
(2012)
In addition to the rising costs of gasoline and the depletion of fossil fuels, air pollution caused by burning fossil fuels has increased the need to develop alternative renewable fuels. One possible alternative is the ...

MICRO-STRUCTURE OF GAS SHALES AND ITS EFFECTS ON GAS STORAGE AND PRODUCTION PERFORMANCE
(2011)
This dissertation includes discussions on three fundamental topics that are relevant to gas shale reservoir characterization and engineering. First, pore structure of organic-rich gas shale samples are investigated at the ...
A NOVEL POST-HOC MATCHING PROCEDURE USING STATISTICAL LEARNING METHODS
(2016)
In this thesis, a statistical learning method is leveraged to create a novel measure for conducting post-hoc matching between a treatment group and a candidate set. Post-hoc matching is a necessary element in many non-random ...
SEISMIC FACIES CLASSIFICATION OF THE LOWER STRAWN FORMATION, BEND-ARCH, FORT WORTH BASIN, NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS
(2016-12-17)
The Bend Arch- Fort Worth Basin is a tectonically active area along north-central Texas that exhibits a complex sediment distribution. While Pennsylvanian plays have been one of the main exploratory targets, the depositional ...
INTEGRATED GEOPHYSICAL STUDIES OF THE FORT WORTH BASIN (TEXAS), HARNEY BASIN (OREGON), AND SNAKE RIVER PLAIN (IDAHO)
(2013)
Geophysical methods such as seismic, gravity, magnetics, electric, and electromagnetics are capable of identifying subsurface features but each has a different spatial resolution. Although, each of these methods are ...
