Artificial Neural Networks to Predict the Nitrate Distribution in Cimarron Terrace Aquifer, Oklahoma
(Oklahoma State University, 2007-12-01)
The artificial neural network (ANN) models were used to expand the groundwater nitrate data taken at well locations to the entire space of Cimarron Terrace Aquifer near the City of Enid, Oklahoma. These neural kriging ...
Simultaneous inference in generalized linear model settings
(2007-07)
Generalized Linear Models (GLM's) are utilized in a variety of statistical applications. Many times the estimated quantities from the models are of primary interest. These estimated quantities may include the mean response, ...
Development of the Spiritual and Religious Competency Assessment (SARCA): An instrument to measure competency in supervisees
(2007-12)
Scope and Method of Study: The primary purposes of this study were to develop a measure of spiritual and religious competency that could be utilized in the supervision relationship and to explore possible predictors of ...
Characterization of the Compressive and Fracture Behavior, as Well as the Residual Tensile Strength of a Polyurethane Foam
(Oklahoma State University, 2007-05-01)
Experiments were conducted on polyurethane foam to determine its compressive strength/modulus, relaxation behavior, fracture toughness, as well as residual tensile strength after repetitive compression at room temperatures ...
Phoma Medicaginis: a Model Pathosystem for Medicago Truncatula
(Oklahoma State University, 2007-05-01)
The fungus Phoma medicaginis was transformed using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation and a collection of T-DNA tagged transformants generated and characterized. The interactions of P. medicaginis with the ...
Outcrop-Based Correlation Of Magnetic Susceptibility With Spectral Gamma-Ray Spectrometry In The Woodford Shale Of South-Central Oklahoma
(Oklahoma State University, 2007-12-01)
In the present study, we quantify the correspondence between magnetic susceptibility (MS) and spectral gamma-ray measurements (SGR) in measured sections of the Woodford Shale. Paired MS/SGR measurements were made at 15 cm ...
