Soybean Yield and Yield Components as Affected by Planting Date and Maturity Group in Oklahoma
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is normally planted between early April and early May using maturity groups (MG) III and IV, or from May through June using MG IV and V in Oklahoma. Planting date (PD) and MG can greatly ...
Creating Dry-aged Traditional and Value-added Beef Cut Programs for Domestic and International Markets
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-05-01)
The present study was conducted to develop a dry aging program that would maximize flavor and shelf-life along with ensuring the safety characteristics of traditional and the value cuts destined for domestic and international ...
From Theory to Praxis: Style, Dualism, and the Composition Classroom
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-07-01)
Style, as a workable pedagogy, remains elusive to scholars, not for its lack of a definition, but because it seems to evoke a myriad of individual definitions. Further investigation into style literature reveals a gap ...
Effects of plant saponins on forage digestion and performance of grazing beef cattle
(2011-05)
The inclusion of Micro-Aid (MA) in protein supplements improved rumen DM and NDF degradability via a decrease in rumen particulate passage rate, but was not successful at improving apparent total tract digestibility. This ...
Organic acid changes in bermudagrass root exudates under aluminum stress
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
Root exudates can act as root zone chelators to reduce harmful effects when plants are under heavy metal stress. Aluminum toxicity in acidic soils is a common problem in bermudagrass areas across the United States. Therefore, ...
Type 1 Diabetes in adolescence: The effect of depression, psychosocial adjustment and duration of illness on glycemic control
(2011-07)
Scope and Method of Study: This study used a sample of patients from a diabetes and endocrinology pediatric clinic in a metropolitan hospital to explore the influence of Type 1 Diabetes on adolescents in the areas of ...
Impact of United States Corn-based Ethanol Production on Land Use
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-07-01)
This study examined the impact of corn-based ethanol production in the United States on land use in other countries (Indirect Land Use). Indirect land use is a change from non-cropland to cropland (e.g. deforestation) that ...
Near-surface Seismic Imaging Using First Arrival Time Inversion with Pre-Stack Depth Migration
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-07-01)
This paper presents a hybrid acquisition strategy for imaging near surface stratigraphy. Shallow seismic depth imaging studies typically involve data processing followed by velocity estimation and migration. Most researchers ...
Memory Storage in a Variable Threshold Artificial Neural Network
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-07-01)
This thesis is concerned with the problem of memory storage in a feedback neural network. A new learning approach has been developed that assigns variable thresholds to the neurons through an iterative process. This approach ...
Characterization and Elimination of Defects in Metallic Glass Honeycomb
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-07-01)
This work focuses on quantification and elimination of defects in the new class of amorphous metallic glass honeycombs (MGH) developed in 2009. A new lab scale method of manufacturing was devised to produce defect free ...
