Proposed Unified Visual Programming Language
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
Throughout time, computer scientists have edited their programs by keypunching, then typing and more recently by typing and `point-and-clicking'. The need for improving the editing of a computer program is driven mainly ...
Economic analysis of subsistence farmers in Bolivia: Three essays
(2010-12)
The first essay examines the role that remittances plays in income diversification strategies in the developing world. Using a large and nationally representative survey for Bolivia, we find that remittances alleviate ...
Investigation on the Aerodynamic Performance of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
The two dimensional unsteady flow around a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) comprising three rotating symmetric airfoils (NACA0018) was studied numerically with the consideration of the near wake. The simulations were set ...
Modeling of Turbulent Particulate Flow in the Recirculation Zone Downstream of a Backward Facing Step Preceding a Porous Medium
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
The current study focuses on flow characteristics and particle motion in the recirculation zone downstream of a backward facing step preceding a porous medium. A two dimensional backward facing step is created in ICEM CFD ...
Testing of Clonal Bermudagrass Cultivars and Experimental Genotypes for Differences in Drought Performance
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
Bermudagrass is used in many parts of the world as a forage crop and as turfgrass in sports fields, golf courses and lawns. Selection and identification of drought resistant bermudagrass cultivars under acute or chronic ...
Influence of Diffusion in Tissue Engineering Bioreactors
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
Flow-through reactor configuration has been studied earlier for developing high aspect ratio tissues. However, flow-through configuration is limited by the range of flow rates that can be used. Hence, split channel parallel ...
Carbon cycling and stable isotope evolution in neutral mine drainage
(2010-05)
Scope and Method of Study:
Effect of breed, tissue type, and time of weaning on fatty acid composition and gene expression in Angus and Charolais finishing steers
(2010-07)
The effect of breed and tissue type on fatty acid composition and gene expression was evaluated using 33 steer calves. Calves were completely randomized to a 2 x 2 x 2 factorial treatment arrangement: sire breeds (Angus ...
Winter Biomass Yield, Year-Round Elemental Concentrations of 'Kanlow' Switchgrass, and Associated Soil Nutrients in a Zero Input Environment
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-05-01)
Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is a warm-season perennial species native to North America. It was selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) as the model herbaceous species for the development as a cellulosic ...
Test Bed for Demonstrating and Teaching Soft Sensor Concepts
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
The smart sensor car is a test bed for demonstrating soft sensor concepts. The smart car follows the magnetic field coming from a wire track. Sensors on the smart car detect the magnetic field and generate signals. Those ...
