Design and characterization of a hand-held, waveguide-mediated, optoacoustic imaging probe for analyzing burn wounds
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Clinicians correctly diagnose only [about]66% of burn wounds, which may be in part due to the qualitative methods commonly employed for burn assessment. This often results in over diagnoses, which may lead to unnecessary ...
Evaluation of a solid-liquid manure separation operation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Field monitoring and laboratory tests were conducted to evaluate the efficacy and practicality of a solid-liquid separation barn for finishing pigs. The solid-liquid separation system included a mechanical scraper and ...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
and demand of the Salt River Basin using integrated hydrological model and water allocation model approach; (4) determine if future water supply can meet the Salt River Basin catchment demands, and evaluate the future water competition among different sectors...
Imaging structural and mechanical properties of articular cartilage using optical polarization tractography
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Osteoarthritis (OA) is an extremely common joint disease, which affects more than one-third of all adults in the USA. Although the entire joint ...
The impact of adverse maternal environments on resistance artery function and mechanical characteristics in offspring
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Maternal obesity, gestational diabetes mellitus (GMD) and assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have been associated with cardiovascular deficiencies ...
Use of geographic information systems and remote sensing as automated tool for variable rate irrigation prescriptions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Economic as well as water shortage pressure on agricultural use of water has placed added emphasis on efficient irrigation management. Center pivot ...
Development of a multispectral sensor for crop canopy temperature measurement
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
The Multispectral System for Imaging of a Crop Canopy (MSICC) that combines a miniature long wavelength infrared (LWIR) camera with a visible camera was developed to capture a field of view and derive a plant specific ...
