Self-aligned microchip device for automated measurement of quantal exocytosis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Here we describe a method to fabricate a multi-channel high-throughput microchip device for measurement of quantal transmitter release from individual cells. Instead of bringing carbon-fiber electrodes to cells, the device ...
Data control for signal scavenging for a personnel detection system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Injurious falls have been one of the major problems in elderly people and not providing medical assistance to those patients on time may increase complications. We developed a "Smart Carpet", which detects the personal ...
Linguistic summarization of human activity
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The thesis advanced herein is that linguistic summarization is essential for the reliable succinct modeling and inference of human activity. It is also asserted that the inherent and unavoidable uncertainty is linguistic ...
Robust receiver design for RF communication and underwater acoustic communication
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
This dissertation includes two parts: robust receiver design for wireless radio frequency(RF) communication, and robust receiver design for underwater acoustic (UWA) communication. The methodology of study for the first part is theoretical analysis...
Control and characterization of a cyclotron proton beam
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The cyclotron proton beam accelerator at the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR) is used for positron emission tomography (PET) applications. Pharmaceutical radioisotopes are produced and delivered to local ...
