relationship with the magnetic properties. La₀.₆Sr₀.₄Fe₀.₈Co₀.₂O₃₋[delta subscript], and La₀.₈Sr₀.₂Fe₀.₈Co₀.₂O₃₋[delta script] can be good candidates for the cathodes of SOFCs at intermediate temperature. The double perovskite Ba₂YRu₀.₈₅Cu₀.₁₅O₆ superconductor...
Death and burial in ancient Alexandria: the Necropolis of Moustapha Pasha
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] As study of the Alexandrian monumental rock-cut tombs in the eastern necropolis of Moustapha Pasha, leads to a re-examination of their artifacts, architectural features...
Mathematical problems from cryobiology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
in the 2- solute case. After defining optimal controls, the question arises whether the predicted continuous optimal control of the extracellular environment affects the hypotheses of the ODE model, namely, perfect stirring inside and outside of the cell...
Comparative study of type 2 median crossovers and median u-turns
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Many states use rural expressway median crossovers which provide for separation between the two opposing traffic lanes to manage the direct left turn movements between the expressways and cross roads. As the volume increases on the major road...
The relation of the size of seed to the character of plant produced
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1916)
Text taken from pages 1 and 2 of this thesis: During the past fifty years a number of investigators have reported results on the relative value of heavy and light or large and small seed grain. Each investigator has devised a some what different...
A simultaneous equation analysis of selected terminal hog markets
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
declined from about thirty percent to approximately eighteen percent, while direct buying and purchases through auction markets have increased. As the volume of hogs traded in terminal markets declines, the protection of consumers' welfare, as well...
A critical study of the chemical and physical factors involved in cake making
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1916)
There is no specific history as to how and when the first cake was made. However, it is reasonable to suppose that it developed logically from bread making at an early date, when some clever cook found that the addition ...
Stand structure development effects on wood quality of Melina (Gmelina arborea roxb.)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
of log grade through the harvest cycle shows the highest increments at Cordoba region. Dendrometric variables such as heartwood, sapwood, and diameter and crown height are good estimators of tree volume, taper and branch modeling....
Nutrients, chlorophyll and bacterial fecal indicators in coves and open water areas of Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Urban development and use of septic tanks in porous soils of Lake of the Ozarks poses a threat to public health via leaching into drinking wells and coves used for swimming. During 2 summers, phosphorus (TP), nitrogen (TN), chlorophyll (Chl), fecal...
Indexes of the influence of weather on corn yields in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1964)
yields in Missouri. The study was designed (1) to construct and evaluate Indexes of weather using existing techniques in a designated Central Missouri area, (2) to construct and evaluate indexes of weather in a designated area utilising the most recent...
An in depth evaluation of internal criteria for determining the number of clusters in a data set
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Clustering procedures partition data sets into groups, minimizing the distance within clusters while maximizing the distance between clusters. Clustering can be a powerful tool...
Flexure shear response in fatigue of fiber reinforced concrete beams with FRP tensile reinforcement
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
of polypropylene fibers by volume, individual compressive tests were performed on both lab-mix and ready mix concrete specimens. In the lab, concrete mixes with 0.0%, 0.5%, and 1.0% by volume, fibrillated polypropylene fibers were produced. Along with these...
The use of geomorphological and pedological soil characteristics to assess planar borrowing at a Mandan Indian village, North Dakota
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
The Double Ditch State Historic Site is situated in a loess landscape immediately east of the Missouri River near Bismarck, North Dakota. The site was occupied from ca AD 1450 to 1785 by Mandan Indians, Plains Villagers who exhibited a systematic...
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...
The dissolution rate of unirratiated UO₂ under repository conditions: the influence of fuel and water chemistry, dissolved oxygen, and temperature
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
the values predicted by the model at 25°C. After long time periods when the radiolytic field has diminished, additional benefits in dissolution reduction should exist due to constituents such as Gd₂O₃ in the fuel matrix and silicate in the groundwater. Thus...
