700mV low power low noise implantable neural recording system design
(2014-12)
This dissertation presents the work for design and implementation of a low power, low noise neural recording system consisting of Bandpass Amplifier and Pipelined Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) for recording neural ...
Study on the global well-posedness for the two-dimensional Boussinesq and Lans-alpha magnetohydrodynamics equations
(2014-07)
We investigate the global (in time) regularity problem for two different models; generalized two-dimensional Boussinesq and Lans-alpha magnetohydrodynamics system. First, the global regularity of 2D incompressible generalized ...
Effects of growth-promoting technologies on behavior, mobility, health parameters and heat stress of finishing steers
(2014-07)
Crossbred steers (n=336; initial BW 379 plus or minus 8kg) were used in a RCBD to determine the effects of growth-promoting technologies on steers' behavior, mobility, health parameters and heat stress. Treatments consisted ...
On horses, humans and sugar: Towards a desire-centered view of self-control
(2014-12)
Past research demonstrated that following exertion of self-control, people perform worse on subsequent tasks requiring self-control (Baumeister, Vohs & Tice, 2007). Previous research also demonstrated that following a brief ...
Comparison of gluten viscoelasticity components with traditional dough and baking tests
(2014-05)
Quantitate analysis of viscoelastic properties of gluten were done by using mechanical analogs, i.e., spring, spring and dashpot arranged in parallel, and dashpot, to describe the elasticity, delayed elasticity and viscous ...
Computational studies of molybdenum oxide clusters and environmental corrosion of iron and zinc
(2014-07)
This dissertation describes two creative activities. The first is a computational study of molybdenum oxide clusters and the other is an experimental study of the corrosion of metals. The first effort covers three topics. ...
Exploration and characterization of new synthesis methods for C60 colloidal suspensions in water
(2014-05)
Buckminsterfullerene, C60, has been used in the production of several commercial products from badminton racquets and lubricants for their mechanical properties to cosmetics and even dietary supplements for their "antioxidant" ...
Discourse among the truthers and deniers of 9/11: Movement-countermovement dynamics and the discursive field of the 9/11 truth movement
(2014-07)
This study is based upon a three year ethnography with the 9/11 Truth Movement involving field work in their online and offline milieus. In addition, a critical discourse analysis of texts produced by their countermovement ...
Diversification of current Oklahoma no-till cropping systems using cool season and warm season cover crops
(2014-12)
This study evaluated fall and summer cover crop performance from a forage production, forage quality and water use efficiency standpoint. Five fall cover crop mixtures, for three site years, and six summer cover crop ...
Study examining MDC units couple treating carbohydrate base stream waste and artificial seawater
(2014-05)
Investing the biomass energy production in microbial desalination cells (MDCs) to drive another process like desalination has gained a great attention these days pushing researchers to try to unveil the limiting factors ...
