(The University of Oklahoma., 1975) -
The motion of bodies through a viscous medium /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1969) -
Motivation for learning in information technology experts: Profiles of multiple goals.
(2006)This study describes the motivational characteristics of developing experts in information technology (IT). Experienced IT workers (N=203) who were users of online technology discussion groups completed surveys about ... -
The mountain man in American history and culture.
(2000)The mountain man hero evolved mostly during the nineteenth century owing to various media and changing cultural currents. He embodied and projected Jacksonian ideals (as an adventurous enterpriser), notions of Manifest ... -
Movement and the removal of nutritional deficiencies :
(The University of Oklahoma., 1977) -
Movement by three stream dwelling cyprinids (Notropis boops, Campostoma anomalum, and Cyprinella venusta).
(1999)The effects of riffles as barriers to movement of stream fish were investigated in large, outdoor artificial streams. Rates of movement of three species of minnows (Cyprinidae) (Campostoma anomalum, Cyprinella venusta and ... -
MOVIT: MONOCULAR VISION-BASED TRACKING
(2018)Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a physical disability that affects approximately 17 million individuals globally. CP can severely impact the development of motor, cognitive, and social skills. Recent research efforts in this domain ... -
Mozart's Piano Concerto in D Minor, K. 466: The play with topics in the high, middle and low styles.
(2003)This study presents the case that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Concerto in D Minor, K. 466 may be interpreted as a drama. Mozart creates the drama through his use of what Leonard Ratner calls musical topics. The topics ... -
The mucopolysaccharides and glycoproteins in human costal cartilage /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1961) -
(Multi-)Persistent Homology and Topological Robotics
(2023-05-12)After developing the relevant background and proving some general results in the early chapters, the main novel content of this thesis is the computation of the $i$-th homology groups of the second configuration spaces of ... -
Multi-area unit commitment via sequential method and a DC power flow network model.
(1997)The sequential bidding unit commitment method employs an iterative procedure. Each iteration consists of two phases--the sequential commitment phase and the price adjustment phase. The principle of the sequential bidding ... -
MULTI-CONTRAST OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FOR VARIOUS BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS
(2024-05-10)Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a label-free optical imaging technique that provides noninvasive visualization of biological tissue microstructures with micrometer-scale resolution and millimeter-scale penetration ... -
Multi-criteria optimization model for thermal recovery processes.
(1983)In the Loco field case study, the steam drive enhances the heavy oil recovery by decreasing the oil viscosity and increasing the injectivity; therefore, a quicker return of investment is predicted. However, the in-situ ... -
Multi-criteria simulation optimization with stochastic coefficients: Methods, performance measures, and test bed problems.
(2006)Three methods were developed to solve multi-criteria simulation optimization problems by adapting and extending genetic algorithms (GA), tabu search (TS), and lexicographic Nelder-Mead (LNM) methods. These modifications ... -
The multi-layered schema of an extended entity-relationship model /
(1984)In a database design process, the database model used is essential for producing a good conceptual schema. In some database models, like IMS and CODASYL, a conceptual schema contains too many implementation details which ... -
MULTI-MODAL BEHAVIOR AND CLUSTERING IN DYNAMICAL SYSTEM WITH APPLICATIONS TO WIND FARMS
(2009)he objective of this research is to develop a comprehensive model identification approach for complex multi-modal systems based on spectral theory for nonreversible Markov process that entails (i)model reduction techniques ... -
MULTI-PHOTON TOLERANT QUANTUM KEY DISTRIBUTION PROTOCOLS FOR SECURED GLOBAL COMMUNICATION
(2017-07)This dissertation investigates the potential of multi-photon tolerant protocols for satellite-aided global quantum key distribution (QKD). Recent investigations like braided single-stage protocol and the implementation of ... -
MULTI-SCALE CHARACTERIZATION OF THE WOODFORD SHALE IN WEST-CENTRAL OKLAHOMA: FROM SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE TO 3D SEISMIC
(2012)This dissertation focuses on the characterization of unconventional resource-shales for resource evaluation using the Woodford Shale as a primary example for this study. The limited understanding of the actual rock properties ... -
Multi-scale effects of habitat alteration on stream fishes: from genotypes to communities
(2011)Understanding how evolutionary and ecological processes interact with altered habitats at these various scales will be a major challenge to conservation biologists in the coming decades, and will be crucial for predicting ... -
