Modeling the inertial torque imbalance and foundation forces within an inline internal combustion engine : quantifying the equivalent mass approximation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
in this dissertation, the largest torque imbalance is exhibited by a 2-piston engine. The next largest torque imbalance is exhibited by a 3-piston engine, followed by a single-piston engine (this is not monotonic). The largest foundation forces are exhibited by a...

On the global Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for general spin groups
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
In the 1990s, Benedict Gross and Dipendra Prasad formulated an intriguing conjecture connected with restriction laws for automorphic representations of a particular group. More recently, Gan, Gross, and Prasad extended ...
Structural supramolecular constructs of spheres and tubes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
, a greener synthesis for biologically important molecules called hydantoins and a new crystal motif involving potassium nitrate and cucurbit[6]uril. The second project examined the solid state structure of C60 and C70 fullerene and how they interact...

Occupancy modeling of forest carnivores in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
My research used infrared remote cameras, trackplate boxes, and scat transects to survey for carnivores at 53 sites throughout the southern forested region of Missouri. Cameras and track-plates both detected Eastern spotted skunk (Spilogale putorius...
Sequencing impact at the University of Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, Cyberinfrastructure Council, 2016)
capability. In order for Mizzou to maintain a competitive research environment, we need to expand the computational resources available for bioinformatics analysis of large data which include sequence data. It will require an initial investment of $619...
Historical rainfall analysis and climate implications for agriculture in midwest United States
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
as an empirical formula estimating the soil's ability to store water and the amount of runoff. It was found that not only has rainfall increased but so have the number of rainfall days and the number of consecutive days of rainfall. To appricultural focus, spring...

Identifying bioactive compounds from switchgrass (panicum virgatum L.) by global metabolomic analysis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
) to compare the chemical profiles between varieties of switchgrass and 2) to identify and characterize the valued bioactive compounds in switchgrass using global metabolomics approach (XCMS Online). The compounds extracted from switchgrass were analyzed...
Developmental programming by xenoestrogens
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Xenoestrogens (XE) are chemicals in the environment that mimic the body's natural steroidal estrogens. Developmental exposure to XE may interfere with ...
Comparison of rainfall energy and soil erosion parameters from a rainfall simulator and natural rain
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Numerous studies have used artificial rainfall to quantify relationships for runoff and soil detachment. Application of these results to natural rainfall conditions is dependent in part on how well artificial rainfall ...
A shellabration of early life : exploring the taphonomy, diversity, and distribution of small shelly fossils surrounding archaeocyathid reef systems in the Harkless System, Death Valley, NV
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
framework builders and their small shelly fossil (SSF) inhabitants. This study focuses on lower Cambrian (Series 2, Stage 4) SSF assemblages from the Harkless Formation in southern Esmeralda County, Nevada, as a comprehensive systematic and quantitative...
Nonlinear mechanics and testing of highly flexible one-dimensional structures using a camera-based motion analysis system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Both experimental and theoretical investigations are conducted for the dynamics of cables and strings. The exact equations of motion for finite but small amplitude vibration of string were derived based on a fully nonlinear ...

Overseeding annual ryegrass and cereal rye into soybean for winter forage and as a cover crop for weed control and soil conservation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
was grown as a subsequent crop. Soybean yield was not altered by overseeding annual ryegrass or cereal rye. All treatments yielded over 2,500 kg ha-1 for the season (with a high of 4,200 kg ha-1), which would supply much needed pasture for winter grazing...
Compact oscillating heat pipe and development of fuzzy copper or wicking structures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
A central processing units (CPU) calculation speed is limited by the heat it produces. As the number of transistors and the clock speed of CPUs increase they become more powerful, but they also generate more heat which ...
Nested association mapping and accuracy of predicting genomic breeding value for agronomic and seed composition traits in three interspecific soybean populations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Given the narrow genetic base of soybean, discovering useful traits in exotic germplasm could increase the diversity in the current elite gene pool. However, it is essential to characterize beneficial alleles from the wild ...
