Parallel Processing of Molecular Dynamics Simulation in a Distributed Computing Environment and Application to the Modified Embedded Atom Method and Nanoindentation
(Oklahoma State University, 2000-12-01) -
Parallel-prefix structures for binary and modulo {2n - 1, 2n, 2n + 1} adders
(2008-12)Adders are the among the most essential arithmetic units within digital systems. Parallel-prefix structures are efficient for adders because of their regular topology and logarithmic delay. However, building parallel-prefix ... -
Parallelization of the fast algorithm for computation of dominators in a flowgraph
(Oklahoma State University, 1992-07-01) -
Parameter Estimation for a Shortleaf Pine (Pinus echinata Mill.) Basal Area Growth Model
(Oklahoma State University, 1998-05-01)Purpose of this study was to model basal area growth using a system of equations that accounts for tree interdependency within a plot by using seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) to estimate the parameters. A major ... -
Parameter estimation of a nonlinear Burger's model using nanoindentation and finite element-based inverse analysis
(2016-05)Nanoindentation involves probing a hard diamond tip into a material, where the load and the displacement experienced by the tip is recorded continuously. This load-displacement data is a direct function of material's innate ... -
Parameter Estimation of Ground Thermal Properties
(Oklahoma State University, 1999-07-01) -
Parameter Sensitivity Studies in Modelling of Hydrotreatment Kinetics
(Oklahoma State University, 1984-05-01)This study is concerned with an upgrading process for coal-derived liquids: hydrotreating. I have developed mathematical models for this process and have made comparisons between empirical kinetic expressions and thos.e ... -
Parameterization and Application of the Aquacrop Model for Simulating Bioenergy Crops in Oklahoma
(Oklahoma State University, 2012-07-01)The objective of this study was to parameterize the AquaCrop model for two bioenergy crops, switchgrass and forage sorghum, using field measurements from Stillwater, Oklahoma in 2011. The parameterized model was then ... -
Parameters of parenting in Native American families
(2008-07)Scope and Method of Study: This study utilized well-standardized measures and a newly developed measure to collect normative data on parenting styles and strategies of Native American families. The goals of this study were ... -
Parametric Analysis of Gust-Induced Airfoil Surface-Pressure Phase Behavior
(Oklahoma State University, 2004-07-01)The current study investigates chordwise phase distributions on two-dimensional lifting surfaces using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis, particularly through the CFD software FLUENT 6.0. A series of CFD simulations ... -
Parametric Geometry Creation Methodology and Utility for the Stars Cfd Analysis Package
(Oklahoma State University, 2007-07-01)Differing methodologies and approaches for the creation of STARS CFD test case geometry models and support files were examined. The current methods for model geometry creation have been identified by past researchers as ... -
Parametric optimization of lattice structure heat sinks: An integrated computational and experimental approach
(2023-05)Lattice structures have frequently been investigated for their unique mechanical and thermal properties and have been optimized for better performance for these characteristics. Their mechanical properties have shown amazing ... -
Parasite Community Structure and Reproductive Strategies of Gyrinicola Batrachiensis in Tadpole Stages of Anurans from North Central Oklahoma
(2016-12-01)Amphibians are commonly infected with parasites. As a result, they have been used as model systems to investigate parasite community structure in vertebrate hosts. Multiple factors have been identified to influence amphibian ... -
Parasite Community Structure in 5 Species of Damselflies (Odonata : Zygoptera) From Teal Ridge, Stillwater Oklahoma.
(Oklahoma State University, 2013-12-01)Few ecological studies exist on parasite community structure in insects and compared to other invertebrate and vertebrate groups, insects have been largely ignored in studies on parasite community structure. This is ... -
