Development of metal oxide/metal carboxylate chemistry for the synthesis of metal tungstates, molybdates, and ferrites and extraction of iron from ores
(2022-05)
The research reported in this dissertation explored the application of the reactions between metal oxides and metal carboxylates for the synthesis of useful ternary metal oxides containing either molybdenum or tungsten, a ...
Fluorination and photocatalysis: New horizons
(2020-05)
Recently, the understanding of the importance of fluorination in organic compounds has exploded. It provides a handle for medicinal, agricultural and materials chemists to advantageously affect the properties of a molecule. ...
Robust optimization models with mixed-integer uncertainty sets
(2023-05)
In many real-world decision-making problems, some parameters are uncertain and decision-makers have to solve optimization models under uncertainty. In this study, we address two specific classes of problems with uncertain ...
Improving winter wheat grain yield and nitrogen use efficiency using nitrogen application time and rate
(2020-12)
Preplant nitrogen (N) application which involves placing nutrients in the soil prior to seeding has been an integral part of crop production systems for decades. Some producers are known to apply N at least 21 days before ...
Non-equilibrium dynamics in lattice-confined antiferromagnetic spinor condensates
(2020-12)
A spinor Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is a new state of matter with both magnetic order and superfluidity. It is highly controllable especially when combining with the optical lattices. Lattice-confined spinor BEC is an ...
Comparing the effects of group administered drill interventions on pre-kindergarten early literacy skills
(2021-05)
Children who enter school with limited literacy skills risk falling behind their peers. Early intervention could be used to remediate this issue by increasing the literacy skills of children at an early age. Early literacy ...
Genomic resources for phylogenetics, population genetics and detection of oomycete plant pathogens
(2020-12)
Plant pathogenic oomycetes are a diverse group of fungal-like eukaryotes that cause disease in natural and agricultural ecosystems. Due to their biological properties that, in cases, require alternative technologies to ...
Multimodal approach to improve fire safety on construction sites
(2022-12)
Fire risk on construction sites is a threat to property and construction workers’ safety. Fire safety on construction sites has been rarely studied because fire accidents have a lower occurrence compared to Construction’s ...
Rural Oklahoma and the nexus of disaster vulnerability, risk, and resilience
(2022-03)
The concepts of vulnerability, risk, and resilience have experienced a meteoric rise in academic attention among disaster scholars over the past three decades. Vulnerability operates as the set of social conditions which ...
Stability and blowup problems on the magnetohydrodynamic equations and Boussinesq equations
(2020-07)
Fluid mechanics is the study of the behavior of fluids and deformation of the fluid under the influence of shearing forces. One of the most widely used and studied system of equations in fluid mechanics are the Navier-Stokes ...
