Modeling Relationships Between Brain/Muscle Activity and Locomotive Behavior
(2022-12)The dynamics of locomotion involve a fine-tuned, continuous feedback loop between processes in the brain, functioning of the muscles, and interactions with the environment. Neurological or motor disability can often disrupt ... -
MODELING RELAXATION EFFECTS ON MULTIPHASE FLUID TRANSPORT IN WELLS AND PIPELINES
(2012)The effect of relaxation in processes involving phase transition during flow of reservoir fluids in pipelines and wells is investigated and formulated. Applications concerning the steady-state flow of producing wells, ... -
Modeling Stellar Surface Features with High-Precision Photometry
(2023)Starspots are a major source of stellar contamination in transmission spectroscopy of exoplanet atmospheres, and the correction for exoplanet analyses depends on the temperature of the starspots and the covering fraction. ... -
Modeling the outcomes of a longitudinal tie-breaker regression discontinuity design to assess an in-home training program for families at risk of child abuse and neglect
(2022-05)The current study examined the treatment effects of a newly adapted in-home training program for families at risk of child abuse and neglect. In-home interventions for child abuse and neglect have proven effective for ... -
Modeling the response of a shallow alluvial aquifer to impacts of climate variability and anthropogenic water withdrawal in northwestern Oklahoma.
(2007)Alluvial aquifers are the most reliable sources of water for human consumptive uses and for sustaining riparian ecosystems in semiarid environments. Regardless, very little is known about their dynamics relative to bedrock ... -
Modeling, analysis and defense strategies against Internet attacks.
(2005)Third, we have analyzed the tradeoff between delay caused by filtering of worms at routers, and the delay due to worms' excessive amount of network traffic. We have used the optimal control problem, to determine the ... -
MODELLING AND VERIFICATION OF THERMOACOUSTIC MEDICAL IMAGING FROM NANOSCOPIC TO MACROSCOPIC RESOLUTIONS
(2019-12-13)In this thesis, three main questions regarding the potential of thermoacoustic imaging are answered: 1) what are the conventional resolution limitations of photoacoustic imaging and how can they be extended to enable ... -
Modelling terrestrial carbon fluxes and crop production with remote sensing and in-situ observations
(2020-08-20)Plants fix carbon through photosynthesis, sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and substantially mitigating the climate warming effect induced by anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Terrestrial gross primary production ... -
Models of College Persistence Intentions
(2010)While withdrawal from higher education may be the result of many reasons both within and beyond the control of the student or the institution, the intent of not returning to higher education indicates the acceptance of a ... -
Modern Day Warriors: An Exploration of Indigenous Male Graduates
(2018-05-11)Abstract This study explores successful experiences of Indigenous males who earned a master’s or professional degree from non-native institutions. Research on this population in relation to persistence and success is ... -
MODERN INNOVATIONS IN AMERICAN TRUMPET MOUTHPIECE DESIGN
(2014-05-09)In the early part of the 20th century, technological advancements in machinery allowed the production of trumpet mouthpieces to become more consistent than ever before. Vincent Bach and his contemporaries improved upon ... -
Modernization and ethnicity in China: a study of everyday ethnicity and urban renewal in Hui neighborhoods
(2017-07-12)Though much of the international attention given to China’s ethnic politics focuses on minority groups’ resistance to the Chinese state, relations between the state and ethnic Hui Muslims are not marked by resistence, ... -
