Nanomechanical property characterization of femoral head materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Orthopedic Implants under long-term physiological loading could produce changes in the surface mechanical properties and possible failure. The knowledge of mechanical properties...
Fallen Angel : A Case Study in Architectural Ornamentation
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Museum of Art and Archaeology, 2016)
Designing a LANDIS PRO harvest module and examining the effects of temporal resolution on simulation outcomes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
and testing of a disturbance module that simulates harvest events in the LANDIS PRO model. The design operates on quantitative attributes such as number of trees and basal area to control harvest events, giving the user the ability to parameterize harvest...

Effect of plagioclase crystallization on liquid and magma viscosity in the Anorthite-diopside-dorsterite-quartz system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
SiO2 (CMAS) glasses were synthesized as analogs for dacitic and basaltic lavas. Liquid viscosities were measured between 101 and 1013 Pa s, over the temperature range of approximately 1600 to 700⁰C, using concentric cylinder ...
Mathematical problems from cryobiology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Cryobiology is the study of life anddeath at low temperatures and provides a fascinating setting for applied mathematics. The interdisciplinary nature of cryobiology mirrors the diversity of applications ranging from animal ...
A biological distance study of Steed-Kisker origins
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nonmetric trait frequencies of crania affiliated with the Steed-Kisker phase of northwestern Missouri were compared with crania from the Northern and Central Plains...
Media usage of journalism students of the University of Missouri--Columbia
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
? A survey of journalism students at the University of Missouri-Columbia, the oldest and one of the most prestigious journalism schools in the country, was conducted to answer these questions. The link to a Web-based survey was distributed by email...
Effects of pressure and temperature on the yield strength of tantalum and rhenium
(2013)
The effects of pressure and temperature on the yield strength of tantalum and
the effects of pressure on the yield strength of rhenium were investigated using ruby
fluorescence. A new Raman system with a motorized stage ...
Riparian forests with and without grass filters as buffers of concentrated flow from crop fields
(2009)
along first and second order streams in three northeast Missouri watersheds. Seven natural forest buffers without grass filters were inventoried and found to be composed of dense stands of mixed tree species with a forest floor cover comprised largely...
Assessing the growth potential and future outlook for the US maple syrup industry
(2009)
There is currently a tremendous opportunity to increase the amount of maple syrup produced in the US. This paper addresses the number of potentially tappable maple trees, the factors that affect their utilization for syrup production...
What treatments are safe and effective for mild to moderate hypertension in pregnancy?
(Family Physicians Inquiries Network, 2004)
There is considerable debate concerning the treatment of mild to moderate essential hypertension during pregnancy. Evidence suggests that because of the potential risk of fetal intrauterine growth restriction, treatment ...
Geostatistical integration of core and well log data for high-resolution reservoir modeling
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-01)
-plug porosity data was generated from well-log data with random number generation. The GS model requires basic histograms and variogram models for scaling the computerized tomography (CT) plug data to well log scale as well as integrating the data in a...
Space use and resource selection by Eastern spotted skunks in the Ouachita Mountains, Arkansas
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
of western Arkansas. During two years of field work we collected locations at 28-hour intervals for 33 eastern spotted skunks. Using kernel-based utilization distributions and the volume of intersection index analysis, we found significant seasonal...
Evaluation of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite assays for short-term stressors and validation for stress monitoring in African herbivores
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
During stressful periods, glucocorticoid production is increased. Glucocorticoid metabolites are found in blood, urine and feces. Our first goal was to determine if fecal glucocorticoid metabolite (FGM) measurements are a ...
Analysis of landscape characteristics surrounding deer vehicle accidents in St. Louis County, Missouri
