Force feedback control of a hydraulic cylinder [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
. To experimentally measure the response, a load sensor is attached to the linear actuator in series and an extension cylinder and mounting plate ensure the test setup remains stationary. Due to the nature and frequency of applied forces, fatigue failure analysis...
Effectiveness of therapeutic Salmonella Typhimurium in selectively targeting human cancer cell lines [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
at Columbia's Cancer Research Center developed a therapeutic strain, CRC2636, an archival strain of S. typhimurium that has been shown to destroy PC-3M without extensive lysis of the cancer cells, a factor thought to contribute to the toxicity of VNP20009. Our...
Effect of experimental forest treatments on gray treefrog (Hyla versicolor) habitat use [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
accessibility to uncut forests. The effect of extensive clearcutting on amphibians however would likely be detrimental and effects would depend upon a species' life history needs....
Target test tube assembly process and design for the development of molybdenum-99 [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
of the swaged tubes. This feature also assists in maintenance and the removal of jammed parts. Using an electron microscope, a gap between the swaged tubes was found using the current punch design. After extensive calculations, a new punch was designed...
Rapid automated characterization of transposon insertion mutants in Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough by srnPCR [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
: frequency and location of priming sites, reaction volume, and reaction conditions (annealing temperature, extension time, etc.). By varying these factors, we have developed an efficient and reliable method for characterizing transposon insertion mutants...
