Effects of nano-second pulsed electric fields on human breast cancer cell line-MCF7
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Effects of nanosecond pulsed electric fields on the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 have been investigated for changes in cell number, DNA concentration, DNA synthesis rate...
A method for obtaining a uniform electric field
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
"Electric field meters are used for the measurement of the electric field at the surface of the earth, on airplanes and on satellites. For research work and calibration of the meters, a uniform electric field facility is necessary. The accessibility...
Design and simulation of a compact radiating system for high power microwaves in the 4 to 6 GHz range
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
As high power microwave technologies have advanced, demands have called for sources and radiators to become more compact. The University of Missouri has designed and simulated a compact radiating system for a compact virtual ...
GBIR crosstalk reduction of fully polarimetric data from Blue Springs Dam
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
An investigation into reducing crosstalk from Blue Springs Dam GBIR fully polarimetric data was conducted. Advanced polarimetric processing and techniques often rely on precise phase measurement. One benefit of crosstalk ...
Sound event detection and extraction for automatic music transcription
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This dissertation addresses the problem of automatic music transcription. Transcription is an open problem in the area of musical analysis and audio ...
Ground based interferometric radar initial look at Longview, Blue Springs, Tuttle Creek, and Milford Dams
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Measuring millimeter and smaller deformation has been demonstrated in the literature using RADAR. To address in part the limitations in current commercial satellite-based SAR datasets, a University of Missouri (MU) team ...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This project is to design, build and test a switched-mode class E amplifier operating at 1GHz, using a PIN photodiode as switch. In order to explore ...
A general method for sizing battery energy storage systems for use in mitigating photovoltaic flicker
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
A method for sizing battery energy storage (BES) systems for use in mitigating voltage flicker caused by solar intermittency in photovoltaic generation was developed. The method creates a "design day" from existing solar ...
A user interactive design procedure for an efficient tubular linear induction motor for pneumatic capsule pipeline systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Pneumatic Capsule Pipeline (PCP) systems are being increasingly used for freight transportation in selected industries like mining, tunneling and also ...
Distributed resource allocation and performance optimization for video communication over mesh networks based on swarm intelligence
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
number of heterogeneous devices, each with different on-board computation speeds, energy supplies, and communication capabilities, communicating over the dynamic and unreliable networks. How to coordinate the resource utilization behaviors...
Characterizing carrier transport in silicon thin film metal semiconductor metal structures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
with the photo-generation rate, conduction current density, and electric field. It was observed that the I-V characteristics of the scaled down structures depend greatly on the lateral and transverse electric field components in the channel, which eventually...
Pedestrian detection and counting in surveillance videos
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Pedestrian detection and counting have important application in video surveillance for entrance monitoring, customer behavior analysis, and public service management. In this thesis, we propose an accurate, reliable and fast method for pedestrian...
Methods of measuring electric fields
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
"To determine the potential of a spacecraft, an electric field meter is needed to measure the field at the surface and in the neighborhood of the craft. A search was made for field measuring methods which would not involve rapidly moving parts...
