Private Schools in the South: Is It About Education?
(2006-05-15)
The question of whether or not private schools provide a better education than public schools has been the study of many studies. The question is important because of the large amount of tax money that is devoted to public ...
Privately-Owned Small Impoundments of Central Alabama: A Survey and Evaluation Of Management Techniques and Enhancements
(2009-07-15)
Small impoundments are abundant and widespread throughout central Alabama, and support a large portion of recreational fishing effort. Because the quality of fishing in these ponds is directly related to the management ...
Pro-Nerve Growth Factor Induced RhoA Kinase Activation in PC12 Cells
(2017-07-27)
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is characterized by neurodegeneration and progressive decline in memory, cognition and independence. Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) is the neurotrophin responsible for mediating neuronal survival and ...
Proactive Reuse
(2015-05-04)
In this thesis I explored how as a designer I could approach site design proactively where one use transitions into the next. These times of transition are points that are not respected in our society. Current trends offer ...
Proactive Thermal-Aware Scheduling
(2014-12-15)
Modern CPU’s cut-off operations when CPU temperature reaches a predetermined threshold making the CPU unavailable for all processes. Furthermore, operating the CPU for extended periods at temperatures close to, but slightly ...
Probabilistic schemes for semi-linear nonlocal diffusion equations with application in predicting runaway electron dynamics
(2019-12-05)
In this work, we focus on developing and analyzing novel probabilistic numerical approaches for solving several types of semi-linear nonlocal diffusion equations in both unbounded and bounded high dimensional spaces. First, ...
Probability Equivalent Level of Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall
(2023-05-02)
Probability Equivalent Level of Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall (PELVE) is a novel risk measure proposed and explored by Li and Wang (2020), in [16]. It is motivated by the transition from 99% Value-at-Risk (VaR) to ...
Probing and Controlling Electron Dynamics at the Attosecond Timescale
(2021-03-12)
A recently established attosecond beamline, for studies controlling and probing
electron dynamics, has been stabilized with attosecond precision. The design and
performance of the active stabilization system is presented. ...
Probing the Adaptation Strategies in the Genus Xanthomonas
(2021-07-21)
Bacterial species belonging to the genus Xanthomonas can infect and cause severe diseases in a wide range of host plants including many economically important crops throughout the world. While the majority of studies ...
Probing the Reaction Mechanism of Methyl Coenzyme M Reductase
(2008-08-15)
Methyl coenzyme M reductase (MCR) is the key enzyme in both microbial methane production and anaerobic methane oxidation. MCR catalyzes the reaction of methyl-coenzyme M (CH3SCoM) and coenzyme B (HSCoB) to methane and the ...
Problem-Solving Styles in the Southeast Construction Industry
(2016-11-02)
The construction industry has undergone significant changes in recent decades: new project delivery methods, cyber-trek projects, increased complexity of buildings and systems, increased prefabrication, advancing technology ...
