Rheological and morphological evolution of basaltic lava flows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
the following research questions: (1) How does the rheology of active flows evolve during emplacement; and (2) How can we use flow morphology to infer the rheology of inactive flows? ... At Piton de La Fournaise (La R�union, FR DOM), I addressed the longstanding...
HPV in pregnancy
(Family Physicians Inquiries Network, 2012)
This issue of eMedRef provides information to clinicians on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, therapeutics and prevention of contracting human papillomavirus during pregnancy.
Structure and Mechanical Properties of Cement and Intermetallic Compounds via ab-initio Simulations
(2015)
) and Mo₅B2Si₃ (T2 phase). It was found that thermal expansion anisotropy (TEA) of T1 phase is captured by this simulation. It was also found an AIMD method to reduce TEA of Mo₅Si₃ (T1 phase) by strategic alloying. With further research these methods may...
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...
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...
Midwest Winegrower Quarterly Volume 1, Issue 2
(University of Missouri--Columbia, Institute for Continental Climate Viticulture and Enology, 2008-07)
Midwest Winegrower Quarterly includes research reports and educational articles on grape and wine production in the Midwest, reports on meetings, workshops, and events as well as announcements of upcoming events and other ...
Hydrodynamic characteristics and capillary-assisted heat transfer enhancement of non-condensing/condensing two-phase flows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Interfacial characteristics of two-phase flows were studied through visualization experiments and numerical simulation using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based on the volume-of-fluid (VOF)-continuum surface force (CSF) method...
On the ability of rocks to conduct heat in the Lithosphere
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
This work focuses on creating a model for the conductive thermal transport properties of rocks using measured thermal diffusivity (D) with the Laser Flash Analysis (LFA) method, which eliminates common errors associated ...
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...
Numerical solutions to the Poisson equation in media surrounding multiple arbitrarily shaped bodies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The dissertation describes a general, efficient, and parallelized approach to solving the Poisson equation in the volume surrounding multiple, arbitrarily shaped bodies. Green...
Effects of amending a gravel based growing medium with calcined clay on medium physical properties and growth of Gymnocladus dioicus seedlings
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The Missouri Gravel Bed (MGB) is a system that uses pea gravel with 10% sand (v/v) as a root growth medium, allowing bare root plants to be removed from the gravel and planted...
Corridors and deer-vehicle collisions along Missouri interstate highways
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
A total of 3,639 deer-vehicle collisions (DVCs) were reported on Missouri roadways in 2020, resulting in 348 injuries and 5 deaths. Missouri is ranked 15th nationwide for this type of accident. Of the DVCs, 490 occurred along 1,200 miles of urban...
Flow and heat transfer properties of Mono Craters rhyolites : effects of temperature, water content, and crystallinity
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
and concentric cylinder methods to obtain viscosity measurements between 5 x 103̂ to 8 x 101̂2 Pas, from superliquidus conditions to the glass transition; the laser flash (LFA) method to measure thermal diffusivity of samples between room and subliquidus...
Photoacoustic detection of circulating tumor cells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
based on the change in refractive index was developed to detect individual melanoma cells. The sensitivity of the optical based detector was high and has the resolution to determine the presence of extremely low number of metastatic and cultured cells (2...
Nonlinear mechanics and testing of highly flexible one-dimensional structures using a camera-based motion analysis system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
the attractors of the Hopf branch and the isolated branch solutions were investigated. A 3D motion analysis system was used to perform dynamic testing on vibrations of strings and cables. Experimental frequency response curves were obtained and analyzed. Linear...
Mesoporous iron oxide energetic composites with slow burn rate, sustained pressure and reduced ESD sensitivity for propellant applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
because of its redox reaction with Al-particles. We have attempted to reduce the combustion wave velocity by infiltrating polymers inside porous Fe₂O₃ and combining it with Al-nanoparticles. Furthermore, modifications with the polymers can reduce...
