Individual mass transfer resistances in liquid-liquid extraction
(University of Missouri, 1961)
Individual film resistances in mass transfer were determined for the methyl isobutyl ketone-water system in a 4-inch I.D. spray column. Column height was varied from one to four feet. Individual film resistances (as H.T.U.) and individual capacity...
Investigation of the effects of dynamic loads on reinforced concrete flat-plate buildings under collapse scenarios
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
During the initial stages of a collapse, failure of the initiating member (i.e. column loss) can cause a dynamic load redistribution in the surrounding members. The ability of the structure to withstand these dynamically redistributed loads...
A comparison of methods of determining the amount of radium in rocks and minerals
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1914)
This paper is chiefly the outcome of a study of the radioactivity of the rock at different depths from the surface obtained during the drilling of the University deep well number 2. The first method described by J. Joly ...
Evaluation of alternative resistance mechanisms for progressive collapse
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
of three quarter scale two bay by two story frames. The column between the two bays was removed to simulate a collapse scenario. The design of the three frames consisted of discontinuous reinforcement, continuous reinforcement, and infill walls placed...
Local quantities and topological invariants of hermitian matrices
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
possible. The rst topic is the free-electron network model [1, 2], also known in some other sources as the free-electron theory of conjugated molecules [3], although as stated, here the model will be applied to lattices rather than molecules. The second...
Influence of various wetting agents on water status in USGA greens as determined by their physical properties
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
) selected wetting agents' water infiltration and rewettability into water-repellent sand; 2) to evaluate selected wetting agents' influence on water infiltration and retention under field conditions; and 3) to determine selected wetting agents' influence...
Symphony No. 2 (“Brasiliana”) by Walter Burle Marx: an edition and commentary
(2013)
This research on the Brazilian composer Walter Burle Marx (b São Paulo, 1902; d
Akron, Ohio, 1990) is part of an ambitious project, which aims at publishing a
performing edition of all four of Burle Marx's symphonies. ...
Development and evaluation of a novel germanium-68/gallium-68 generator
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nuclear medicine is a branch of medical imaging that uses small amounts of radioactive material to diagnose or treat a variety of diseases, including ...
Distributed RDF query processing and reasoning for big data / linked data
(2014-08-27)
The Linked Data Movement is aimed at converting unstructured and semi-structured
data on the documents to semantically connected documents called the "web of data." This is
based on Resource Description Framework (RDF) ...
Persistent homology : categorical structural theorem and stability through representations of quivers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
that can still be offered up by using these familiar lenses at new angles. There are three chapters of results. Chapter 3 discusses a categorical framework for persistent homology that circumvents quiver theoretic structure, both in practice and in theory...
Structural features of persistent homology and their algorithmic transformations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
We re-examine the theory and orthodox methods that underlie the study of persistent homology, particularly in its calculation of homological cycle representatives that are associated to persistence diagrams. A common ...
Time-dependent response of reinforced concrete elements near collapse
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
loads on the time-dependent strength and stiffness characteristics of RC isolated slab column connections and RC beams. Concrete is experiences creep under compressive load, and plain concrete has experienced compressive failure at load levels of 80...
Death and burial in ancient Alexandria: the Necropolis of Moustapha Pasha
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
, and function. Cut into the limestone bedrock and entered by means of a staircase, the monumental rock-cut tombs in Alexandria were composed of numerous chambers arranged around a centralized courtyard open to the sky, where Alexandrians performed funeral...
Isotope harvesting from the beam dump cooling loop at the facility for rare isotope beams (FRIB)

/s), neutral pH environment (6-7), vast mixture of elements, and a high radiation environment (1.3 kGy/hr). After one to two years of operation, the two 50-gallon resin tanks of Purolite NRW3460 mixed-bed resin will be hydraulically removed for transfer...
Synthesis and characterization of nanostructures and their applications : from supercapacitors to fluorescent labels to proteins
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
and carbon based materials leading to supercapacitors with unique hydrophobic/hydrophilic structure have been studied. Second, fluorescent dye-doped nanoparticles prepared from organosilicate polymers, poly-methylsilsesquioxane (PMSSQ), as small as 3.5nm...
Sorption and leaching characteristics of heavy metals in artificial soil

Clustering in relational data and ontologies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
This dissertation studies the problem of clustering objects represented by relational data. This is a pertinent problem as many real-world data sets can only be represented by relational data for which object-based clustering ...
PRO3DCNN : convolutional neural network for mapping protein structure into folds
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Motivation: SCOPe 2.07 is a dataset of 276,231 protein domains that have been partitioned into varying folds according to their shape and function. Since a protein's fold reveals valuable information about it's shape and ...
