Introduction to Copyrights (1995)
(University of Missouri Extension, 1995)
A copyright generally prevents reproduction of a copyrighted work for the life of the author, plus 50 years. A copyright owner can sue anyone who infringes his rights to stop illegal reproduction, impound infringing articles, ...
Multi-scale self-assembly of nanoenergetic materials utilizing functionalized graphene
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
gelation process of reduced graphene oxide was developed and utilized for self-assembling Al and Bi2O3 into macroscale structures with enhanced energetic performance and handling safety. The process successfully reduced graphene oxide sheets into r...
Dynamic agent safety logic : theory and applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Modal logic is a family of logics for reasoning about relational structures, broadly construed. It sits at the nexus of philosophy, mathematics, software engineering, and economics. By modeling a target domain as a relational ...
Establishing a foundation for large DNA transfer to artificial minichromosomes and B insert platforms in maize
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
difficult due to independent segregation in meiosis. Alternatively, the use of binary bacterial artificial chromosomes (BiBACs), large insert cloning vectors, can maintain and transfer up to 300 kps, but are also subject to random integrations. Therefore...
Semiparametric analysis of time-to-event data and longitudinal data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Interval-censored failure time data are commonly observed in demographical, epi-demiological, financial, medical, and sociological studies. It is well-known that the proportional hazards model is one of the most used ...
Redefining retirement
(University of Missouri. Alumni Association, 1995)
"Discover why several retirees find Columbia the ticket to a great retirement in this special advertising section."--Table of contents for issue.
Modeling and simulation of a segmented thermoelectric generator
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
, 7.03 percent, and 1.85 percent, respectively. Finally, a general method to design a segmented TEG is developed, using all knowledge gained from the computer simulations....
Gene therapy in spinal muscular atrophy : RNA-based strategies to modulate the pre-mRNA splicing of survival motor neuron
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Gene expression is the required process in eukaryotes in which DNA is transcribed into pre-mRNA, spliced to produce "mature" mRNA and translated into proteins. Inaccuracies in splicing events are receiving more attention ...
Strong Consistency of MLE in Nonlinear Mixed-effects Models with Large Cluster Size
(Indian Statistical Institute, 2005)
The search for conditions for the consistency of maximum likelihood estimators in nonlinear
mixed effects models is difficult due to the fact that, in general, the likelihood can
only be expressed as an integral over the ...
Decoupling inequalities for the tail probabilities of multivariate u-statistics
(2011)
In this paper we present a decoupling inequality that shows that multivariate U-statistics can be studied as sums of (conditionally) independent random variables. This result has important implications in several areas of ...
Gene expression profiling of bovine ovarian follicular selection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Lack of, or abnormal, ovarian follicular development is a major factor associated with impaired fertility in mammals. However, development of new treatments is limited by our poor understanding of ovarian follicular ...
Statistical analysis of multivariate interval-censored failure time data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
A voluminous literature on right-censored failure time data has been developed in the past 30 years. Due to advances in biomedical research, interval censoring has become increasingly common in medical follow-up studies. ...
Racial differences in households' financial asset allocation, 1992-2004
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
By combining the data from the 1992, 1995, 1998, 2001 and 2004 Survey of Consumer Finances, this study investigated racial differences in households' financial asset allocation over the years. This study categorized the financial assets into four...
The Faculty Support Ecosystem : the rose of institutions in technology adoption amongst higher education faculty
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
Social distancing measures due to COVID-19 forced higher education faculty to adopt technology at a rapid pace. Institutions fought to keep up with the demand and assist faculty as much as possible. However, the rapid ...
Relation of Missouri river flows to sandbar morphology with implications for selected biota
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Channel modification and flow regulation in historically braided large rivers, have reduced sandbars and associated highly productive habitats for riverine biota. Sandbars are an important interface between aquatic and ...
GABP regulation of the murine GABPa/ATPsynthase coupling factor six and human glutathione reductase promoters
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
GABPa is expressed from a bi-directional promoter expressing ATP synthase coupling factor six (CF6) in the opposite direction. This bi-directional promoter is regulated by GABP, indicating an autoregulation of GABPa. GABP is a redox sensitive...
Daily alcohol use and relationship functioning in young adult romantic relationships
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
of bi-directional influences between relationship functioning and alcohol use. The present study sought to address these limitations by examining bi-directional effects of alcohol use and relationship processes in a normal population sample of 81 couples...
