Storage facilities of Missouri country elevators
(University of Missouri., 1958)
"The objectives are to determine adequacy of present storage facilities by Crop Reporting Districts and to provide information for decisions relative to location, capacity, type, remodeling, and rebuilding of country ...
Pluton source varition over two magmatic pulses in the white-inyo range, central-eastern California : implications for paleozoic and mesozoic tectonic reconstructions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] This dissertation uses compositions of plutons in the White-Inyo Range (WIR) of central-eastern California, which is an important tectonic boundary as it is the easternmost...
Plasticity of soybean (Glycine max (l.) Merrill) root system development under mild water deficit
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
soybean genotypes selected from both domestic and Plant Introduction lines were studied. The results showed substantial genetic diversity in the capacity for increased lateral root development (number and total length of roots produced...
Synthesis and reactivity of low-valent uranium and neptunium complexes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
reduced quinone. This represents a rare example of high-valent uranium chemistry as well as a rare example of a neptunium aryloxide complex. In Chapters 2 and 3 the synthesis and characterization of a rare U(III) hydrocarbyl complex, U[[eta]4-Me2NC(H)C6H5]3...
Carbon dioxide adsorption on carbonized cigarette filters
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
filters as carbon precursor and urea as nitrogen source, by varying the urea concentration and carbonization temperature investigating their CO2 adsorption capacities. Through TGA test, the sorbent 12M700C was found to have the largest CO2 capacity....
The use of fats in cooking
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1917)
The cost of food is the all important question at the present time. Our people must be fed. The problem is to discover what available foods will give the most nutritive value at a minimum cost. When we observe that a pound ...
Nanomechanical property characterization of femoral head materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Orthopedic Implants under long-term physiological loading could produce changes in the surface mechanical properties and possible failure. The knowledge of mechanical properties...
The clothing and textile research base: an author cocitation study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
This is a study of the clothing and textile research base using author cocitation analysis. The study uses a custom database from a 15 year period, containing all citations in the field's leading journal: the Clothing and ...
Structure and Mechanical Properties of Cement and Intermetallic Compounds via ab-initio Simulations
(2015)
) and Mo₅B2Si₃ (T2 phase). It was found that thermal expansion anisotropy (TEA) of T1 phase is captured by this simulation. It was also found an AIMD method to reduce TEA of Mo₅Si₃ (T1 phase) by strategic alloying. With further research these methods may...
Cover crop effects on corn plant water uptake and soil health
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Cover crops (CC), close growing crops that provide soil and seeding protection between periods of normal cash crop production or between trees in orchards or vines in vineyards...
Pulsatile viscous flow in flexible-elastic tubes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
The flow of an incompressible viscous fluid through a circular tube has received considerable attention during the past fifteen years, both for steady flow and for pulsatile flow. The practical application of blood flow ...
Photoacoustic detection of circulating tumor cells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
based on the change in refractive index was developed to detect individual melanoma cells. The sensitivity of the optical based detector was high and has the resolution to determine the presence of extremely low number of metastatic and cultured cells (2...
Associations between psychosis risk and emotional distress disorders with cortical surface morphometry
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Neuroimaging studies have consistently found structural cortical abnormalities in schizophrenia, especially in structural hubs. However, it is unclear what...
Local free convection to non-Newtonian fluids from a horizontal, isothermal cylinder
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1972)
. These experimental results involved Newtonian fluids, and since that time volumes have been devoted to the subject. Only in recent years has attention been focused on the commonly encountered, yet rheologically more complex, non-Newtonian class of fluid. It is within...
Relative influence of the sire and dam upon the inheritance of speed in standard trotting horses
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1915)
of trotting horses with records of 2:30 or better, and pacing horses with records of 2:25 or better. It is also hoped that it will show whether or not there is any correlation between the speed of the get and the speed of the sire or the speed of the dam...
Modeling the financial impact of management decisions on loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) production
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Located primarily in the southeastern United States, Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) is a variety of Southern yellow pine that is often planted by non-industrial private landowners seeking a beneficial long-term investment ...
Rheological and morphological evolution of basaltic lava flows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
the following research questions: (1) How does the rheology of active flows evolve during emplacement; and (2) How can we use flow morphology to infer the rheology of inactive flows? ... At Piton de La Fournaise (La R�union, FR DOM), I addressed the longstanding...
The kinetics of non-catalyzed supercritical water reforming of ethanol
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
point, 374[degrees]C and 22.1 MPa, and exhibits both liquid and gas-like properties and acts a non-polar solvent. Since supercritical water is denser than steam, supercritical water reactors have the potential of being smaller than their catalytic...
Sex variability
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1919)
The question of variation has long been of interest to scientists. Since the time of Darwin we find investigators endeavoring to determine which sex is the more variable. In a well known controversy on this subject between ...
