Characterization of a lithium niobate piezoelectric transformer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Computational neural models at molecular, cellular and behavioral levels : three case studies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Biological findings from molecular, cellular and behavior levels can be difficult to understand functions. Computational tools and systems concepts facilitate integration of information across levels to further understanding of functional level...
Enhancing the IKE preshared key authentication method
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol is part of the IP Security (IPsec) protocol suite. It is responsible for generating and maintaining Security Associates and for establishing session keys between two entities before ...
Optically enhanced nano-forest cathodes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Optically enhanced nano-forest cathodes are electron sources developed for high power devices. The principle of cathode operation is based on coherent ...
A model-based, generative and stochastic method for human motion capture using hierarchical particle filters
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
hierarchical framework for tracking human pose. Extensive experiments on a public benchmark dataset demonstrate comparable tracking errors to the state-of-the-art and up to 60% computational reduction....
Effects of nano-second pulsed electric fields (nsPEF) on human prostate cancer cell line - LNCaP
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The effects of Pulsed Electric Fields have been a period of study since past few decades, which was mainly on the electroporation, bacterial decontamination and biofouling. But the development of technology to produce nanosecond duration pulsed...
Modeling, characterization and evaluation of MU100 high-energy density ceramic nanodielectric for use in pulsed power applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
A high dielectric, nanodielectric, composite material, MU100, was developed by the University of Missouri for use in dielectric loaded antennas. Based on its dielectric strength and losses, MU100 had possible uses in the development for high energy...
An optics study of mammal skin and its transmission properties
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
A detailed study is performed to understand infrared photonic transmission through skin and the factors that influences transmission at room temperature. Pigskin is the test vehicle of this study since its structure most ...
Robot methods for human-robot spatial language interaction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
This thesis talks about a work to design a robot with some to interact with human by spatial language. The robot is a differential drive robot with Kinect camera. The thesis proposes the perception methods which include ...
Study of nuclear transmutation using cyclotron for post-CMOS activation of Beta emitters
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] A study of post-CMOS fabrication process for radioisotope activation produced by nuclear transmutation is presented. Activation of the precursor occurs ...
Ground based interferometric radar initial look at Longview, Blue Springs, Tuttle Creek, and Milford Dams
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Measuring millimeter and smaller deformation has been demonstrated in the literature using RADAR. To address in part the limitations in current commercial satellite-based SAR datasets, a University of Missouri (MU) team worked with GAMMA Remote...
GBIR crosstalk reduction of fully polarimetric data from Blue Springs Dam
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
in phase measurement. A well-known model of crosstalk behavior was explored in relation to the MU GBIR. To achieve a successful estimation of the method parameters, data culling was performed to weed out low cross-polarization and high-correlation values...
A general method for sizing battery energy storage systems for use in mitigating photovoltaic flicker
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
A method for sizing battery energy storage (BES) systems for use in mitigating voltage flicker caused by solar intermittency in photovoltaic generation was developed. The method creates a "design day" from existing solar ...
Sound event detection and extraction for automatic music transcription
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This dissertation addresses the problem of automatic music transcription. Transcription is an open problem in the area of musical analysis and audio ...
