Existence of L_d(n) and ML_d(n,k)
(2023-04-28)
We are given an n x n array, ML(n,k), with integers n, d, k > 0 such that n=mk and each symbol in {0, ..., m-1} appears in each row and column of the ML(n,k) exactly k times. We aim to construct an ML_d(n,k) with the ...
Existence of TP(d,k,n)
(2019-04-24)
Given a square grid of land, which has n rows and n columns. It is required to plant trees on the land so that there are k trees in every row and column and there is at most 1 tree in any small square part of the land with ...
Exotic Germplasm Introgression Effects on Agronomic Traits and Fiber Properties of Upland Cotton
(2015-07-23)
Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is an economically important natural fiber crop in the world. Along with fiber, it is also valued for its oil and protein portion of the seed. Upland cotton is facing a risk associated ...
Expanded Understanding of Eleusine Diversity and Evolution
(2018-06-18)
Eleusine, including 9 to 12 species, is a small genus of annual and perennial grass species within the Eragrosteae tribe and Chloridoideae subfamily. There are very few genomic information about this genus. The primary ...
Expanding the Measurement, Use, and Support of Spatial Reasoning in STEM and the Geosciences
(2023-08-01)
Spatial thinking has been well-described and characterized for many STEM fields, and there have been numerous studies that emphasize the importance of incorporating spatial opportunities early and often throughout curricula. ...
Expanding the Modified Rational Method for Dissimilar Drainage Areas
(2024-05-03)
The Rational Method (RM) and Modified Ration Method (MRM) are some of the most used approaches to determining peak runoff flows in urban hydrology designs. The RM gained popularity for its simplicity, requiring only ...
Expanding the Toolbox: SNP Tools for Aquaculture and Conservation Management in the Eastern Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) and the Black Basses (Micropterus spp.)
(2018-04-25)
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are considered as important molecular markers due to their several advantages, including their abundance, distribution in the genome, stability due to low mutation rates, ease of ...
Experiences in the field of education: How perceived experiences lead to teacher exit
(2023-08-04)
The ongoing teacher shortage has created major concern across the nation. While much research has sought to understand sources of teacher dissatisfaction, less attention has been paid to how general education (GE) and ...
Experiences in Youth Relationship Education for Adoptive and Nonadoptive Youth in Alabama
(2022-07-29)
While recent studies have explored effects of youth relationship education (YRE) (e.g., Adler-Baeder et al., 2007; McElwain et al., 2017; Simpson et al., 2018; Huntington et al., 2021), and differences between subgroups ...
Experiencing a Safe Classroom: A Critical Phenomenological Study of Graduate Teaching Assistants in Counselor Education who Teach Diversity and Social Justice Courses
(2024-05-03)
The classroom is a gathering of individuals with diverse backgrounds and perspectives. When course content focuses on diversity and social justice content, discussions can invite dialogue with the potential to damage ...
Experiential Learning Modules: Its Contribution in Developing Teaching Curricula in International Agricultural Development Courses
(2019-12-09)
This dissertation comprises of three chapters, on the topic of ELMs which were developed under the project “Developing Global-Ready Agriculturists through Experiential Learning Modules: Solving Problems of Food Insecurity ...
Experimental Analysis and Modeling of Biomass Gasification using a Downdraft Gasifier
(2014-08-19)
The call for the use of renewable energy is an urgent one, for not the future but the present. Concerns over depletion of fossil fuels and their negative impact on the global climate have led to much research in this sector. ...
Experimental analysis of the wear of rubber against harder materials in reciprocating motion
