Evaluating methods for improving nitrogen use efficiency in corn and hard red winter wheat
(2005-05)
Scope and Method of Study: For chapter one, Corn (Zea mays L.) experiments were conducted to evaluate spectral reflectance, measuring the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) with a GreenSeeker Hand Held optical ...
Oklahoma Farm-To-School Economic Viability And Efficiency
(Oklahoma State University, 2009-12-01)
Farm-to-School (FTS), a school food program encouraging marketing and consumption of locally grown fruits and vegetables, began a decade ago and has since gained national recognition. The nascent food program has several ...
Task Resource Probabilistic Scheduling Algorithm
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
The future of mobile health monitoring combined with cloud computing is expected to see a lot of technological advances. In this thesis we assume that to remotely monitor a patient, biomedical sensors are attached to the ...
Modeling of standing column wells in ground source heat pump systems
(2004-12)
The need for alternative low-cost energy sources has given rise to the development of ground source heat pump systems for residential and commercial heating and cooling applications. Standing column wells can be used as ...
Sensor-based monitoring and inspection of surface morphology in ultraprecision manufacturing processes
(2013-07)
This research proposes approaches for monitoring and inspection of surface morphology with respect to two ultraprecision/nanomanufacturing processes, namely, ultraprecision machining (UPM) and chemical mechanical planarization ...
Soil Nitrogen Dynamics and Mineralization
(Oklahoma State University, 2013-07-01)
A group of scientists in the United Kingdom recently proposed that mineralization of native soil organic matter is not regulated by the size, activity or composition of the soil microbial biomass. This was termed the ...
New Product Pre-Announcements: Incumbent Reactions to Competitive Signals
(Oklahoma State University, 2007-05-01)
The purpose of this study was to examine assess the effect of perceived hostility and perceived credibility in new product pre-announcement on strength and speed of response by incumbent competitive firms. Participants in ...
Thermal Conductivity of Diamond Thin-films on Silicon Wafers
(2015-12-01)
Synthetic diamond films may play an important role in thermal management of processors. Diamond may be up to four times as thermally conductive as copper, but the conductivity of individual films may vary based on synthesis ...
