(2016-12-16)
Background: Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of mortality in the United States which has arose from numerous contributing factors including the westernized diet and its shift toward more fatty and carbohydrate ...
Petrographic Quartzite Source Discrimination in the Upper Gunnison Basin, Colorado: Implications for the Archaeological Study of Prehistoric Hunter-Gathers
(2016-05-14)
Recently (Pitblado et al. 2008, 2013), an interdisciplinary team of archaeologists and geologists collaborated to develop a protocol for sourcing quartzite in the Upper Gunnison Basin, Colorado where archaeological assemblages ...
Paleoenvironmental interpretation of the Woodford shale with primary focus on water column structure
(2015-05-09)
Twenty-nine Woodford Shale rock samples were acquired from the Wyche-1 core derived from the Wyche Farm Shale Pit, Pontotoc County, Arkoma Basin, Oklahoma. The TOC (total organic carbon) values ranged from 3.47-16.90 wt.%, ...
Numerical simulation study on CO2 injection for enhancing hydrocarbon recovery and sequestration in tight oil formations
(2014)
Hydrocarbon resources from unconventional reservoirs, especially tight/shale plays, are changing the North America's energy prospect. Single digit percentage of oil shale recovery with current best practices, leaves a large ...
Modeling Adsorption in Shale
(2016-12-16)
The existing conventional methods to characterize reservoir storage properties face challenges in shale formations due to their fine grained texture, low porosity, and low permeability. An integrated analysis of standard ...
Hydrogeologic characterization of the Antlers Formation and aquifer in southern and southeastern Oklahoma
(2015)
The Cretaceous-aged Antlers Formation crops out in several counties just north of the Texas border in southern and southeastern Oklahoma. The Antlers is composed of sands, conglomerates, clays, and limestones that lie ...
EFFECT OF MULTI-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBES LENGTH, DENSITY, POWDER SIZE AND PRE-TREATMENT METHOD ON ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF POLYCARBONATE/MWCNT COMPOSITES
(2016-05-13)
The combine effect of nanotube pre-treatment method (freeze drying (FD) vs. oven drying (OD) ), density, powder size and length of fourteen multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the dispersion and further on the ...
ESTABLISHMENT OF A RARE RIPARIAN TREE, ALNUS MARITIMA
(2016-12-16)
Alnus maritima is a rare, riparian tree species showing no recruitment from seeds. We conducted studies to identify factors potentially limiting establishment. First, we surveyed current known populations to determine ...
SULFIDE STRESS CRACKING BEHAVIOR OF GRADE C-110, Q-125 AND T-95 STEEL TUBULARS UNDER HIGH-PRESSURE CONDITIONS
(2016-12-16)
Due to the expansion of hydrocarbon exploration into challenging sour oil and gas resources, the industry is now facing severe sour related corrosion problem. Sulfide Stress Cracking (SSC) is one of the detrimental types ...
Singing Redface: The Misappropriation of American Indian Culture in Popular Music
(2016-12)
This project examines the role of cultural appropriation in the creation of Native American stereotypes that are present in Western popular music in post-colonial America through the completion of an in-progress book. ...
