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...
Associations between psychosis risk and emotional distress disorders with cortical surface morphometry
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Neuroimaging studies have consistently found structural cortical abnormalities in schizophrenia, especially in structural hubs. However, it is unclear what...
Accelerated fill-up of the Arbuckle Group aquifer and links to U.S. midcontinent seismicity
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2019)
newly compiled data set for 49 wells across Kansas that provides a unique perspective on the aquifer's performance over two decades. Statistical analysis of falloff test pressures, static fluid levels, and injection volumes shows that Arbuckle pressures...
Modeling the financial impact of management decisions on loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) production
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Located primarily in the southeastern United States, Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) is a variety of Southern yellow pine that is often planted by non-industrial private landowners seeking a beneficial long-term investment ...
Liming in Missouri in the 20th century
(University of Missouri--Columbia, Agricultural Experiment Station, 2003)
The following are objectives of this publication ... Provide a condensed history of liming research and practices in Missouri ... Summarize the methods in use at the end of the Twentieth Century to estimate the need for liming material ... Sumarize...
Statistical and simulation methods for evaluating stationary and mobile work zone impacts
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
when traffic volumes are under 1400 veh/hr/ln, and preferably under 1000 veh/hr/ln, due to the drastic increase in the number of conflicts. In addition, three data driven models were developed to predict traffic speed inside a MWZ: a linear regression...
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....
Generation, collection and characterization of nanoparticles and their diffusion in arbitrary tumor and normal tissue geometry
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nanoparticles have unique electronic, optical, mechanical, magnetic and chemical properties that are significantly different from those of the bulk materials. Because of this...
Rheological and morphological evolution of basaltic lava flows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
question of how pre-existing topography controls lava flow system structure in volume-limited flows (Soldati et al., accepted). I concluded that a steep slope results in a single, stable channel, whereas a gentle slope results in an unstable, braided...
