Experimental wake survey of low Reynolds number wind tunnel
(Oklahoma State University, 2023-04-18)
This poster presents the integration of a mechanical traverse and multi-hole probe for use in low Reynolds number wake surveys. Advanced testing equipment offers enhanced data processing and visualization of three-dimensional ...
Calcium deposition as a novel virulence factor in the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(Oklahoma State University, 2021-04)
Calcium (Ca) deposition in soft tissues has been associated with several bacterial infections including cystic fibrosis (CF). In CF patients, the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the predominant cause of death. We ...
Using zircon geochronology to determine sand provenance in Northeast Oklahoma
(Oklahoma State University, 2020-04-24)
Porosity in sandstones is a desired trait, but primary porosity is occluded in sandstone after reaching burial depths of 3 kilometers or more. However, depending on the sandstone's composition, secondary porosity can develop ...
Testing coiled nylon threads as artificial muscles for exoskeletons
(Oklahoma State University, 2019-10-05)
The popularity of robotic exoskeletons in rehabilitation is on the rise. However, high cost and bulkiness are two limitations that hinder their popularity and everyday use. Our overarching goal is to develop a low-cost ...
How temperature may affect horses: Using ethograms to examine horse behavior based on variations in weather
(Oklahoma State University, 2019-04-27)
This study is to serve as a baseline for future research regarding horses. The study was conducted by observing the horse's behavior and characteristics in various weather conditions from a proximal distance of 75 ft (25 ...
Quantitative assessment of otitis media with effusion with scanning laser Doppler vibrometer - A preliminary study
(Oklahoma State University, 2021-10-09)
Otitis media with effusion (OME) is a common middle ear inflammation for preschool-age children, with the presence of fluid in the middle ear cavity (MEC). Although the biomechanical abnormalities induced by OME has been ...
DNA barcoding for identifying zooplankton
(Oklahoma State University, 2019-04-27)
DNA barcoding is still a relatively new field of study that is gaining popularity as it becomes more available. But there is no single protocol that works consistently and efficiently. While there are protocols that have ...
Muscle strength and power imbalances and injury risk in Division I softball athletes
(Oklahoma State University, 2023-04-18)
Softball requires development of lower body strength and power but specific demands may lead to asymmetries. These adaptive imbalances such as quadriceps to hamstrings (H:Q) ratio may impact performance and increase risk ...
Client depletion assay comparison of paclitaxel to Hsp90 inhibitors
(Oklahoma State University, 2019-04-27)
Many researchers have claimed they have found a successful inhibitor of Hsp90; however, we suspect they are only successful when the inhibitor is used in large quantities. On top of being one of the easiest ways to show ...
Effect of increased ruminal proprionate on the expression of hepatic gluconeogenic genes in cattle on a finishing ration
(Oklahoma State University, 2022-04-19)
The objective of this experiment was to ascertain if supplementing calcium propionate (CaP) in varying amounts would result in the increased expression of genes related to glucose metabolism in the liver. The study utilized ...
