Single-molecule spectroscopic investigation of the influence that charge-charge interactions, solvation, and confinement have on guest molecule rotational mobility and photostability within silica sol-gel host matrices.
(2006)
To investigate physical immobilization further, guest behavior was monitored within the more highly branched silica nanoparticle matrix, when covalently bonded to silica nanoparticles, and within pores templated by gold ...
Reformation of the teaching profession: A genealogy of the Oklahoma Commission for Teacher Preparation as a regulatory standards board .
(2006)
Utilizing public and private archives, media reports, state and federal reports, literature of professional organizations and oral history interviews, the second portion of the paper presents the case---the Oklahoma ...
Seismic detection of fault zone hydrocarbon conduit-seal potential using velocity, frequency, and Q analysis: La Concepcion Field, Lake Maracaibo Venezuela example.
(2006)
The 3-D Post-Stack Time Migrated Seismic Data of La Concepcion Field, Maracaibo Basin, Venezuela cover an existing field with known oil and gas pay zones. The thesis problem is how to use this seismic data in an interpretation ...
Persistence among adult students enrolled in business- and ministry-related tracks of degree-completion programs.
(2006)
In this study, 22 former students of degree-completion programs offered by three Christian colleges were interviewed using a qualitative approach. This study addressed the questions of their motivations for participation, ...
Bacillus lipopeptide biosurfactants: Purification, structure-activity relationship, and in-situ production in oil reservoirs.
(2006)
Alternatively, biosurfactant activity can be manipulated by formulation of biosurfactant mixtures with different properties. The efficacy of biosurfactants from individual strains, and mixtures of biosurfactants from ...
Manganese tetraoxide based polyalkenoate cements.
(2006)
Polyalkenoate cements resulting from reaction between Mn3O4 with acrylic acid and poly(acrylic acid) have been analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). This ...
Performance enhancement of large scale networks with heterogeneous traffic.
(2006)
Finally, these findings are applied towards improving the performance of the Differentiated Services architecture by developing a new Refined Assured Forwarding framework where heterogeneous traffic flows share the same ...
Distributed product development approaches and system for achieving optimal design.
(2006)
The research in this dissertation attempts to provide theoretic approaches and design systems to support engineers who are located in different places and belong to different teams or companies to work collaboratively to ...
Ensemble Kalman filter assimilation of Doppler radar data for the initialization and prediction of convective storms.
(2006)
Finally, the EnSRF is applied to the May 29-30, 2004 central Oklahoma tornadic thunderstorm case. The initial storm environment is either horizontally homogeneous as defined by a single sounding or is three dimensional as ...
An ethical study of genetic intervention based on Rawlsian justice and on Buddhism.
(2006)
The primary purpose of my dissertation is to discuss the moral distinction between genetics based medical therapy and enhancement, using a combination of ethical ideas derived from Rawlsian justice and from Buddhism.
