DAIRY AND SOY PROTEINS: ACID AND HEAT INDUCED INTERACTIONS
(2017-08-30)Based on the high consumer demand for high protein foods, there is some interest and potential for the creation of soy protein fortified dairy products. However, studies that evaluated combinations of milk and soy proteins ... -
DAIRY INDUSTRIALIZATION AND SPRAWL IN AN UPSTATE NEW YORK COUNTY
(2005-08-03)In this thesis I examine the interaction of agricultural industrialization and sprawl in an upstate New York county. A longitudinal representative case study of dairy farming in Ontario County, NY was conducted in order ... -
DAIRY PRODUCT QUALITY - A NEW VISION FOR THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY
(2018-12-30)The quality of dairy products relies on the implementation of best practices from the pre-harvest environment throughout the processing and distribution chain, requiring a grass-to-glass approach. The dairy industry has ... -
Damage And Damage Tolerance Of High Temperature Composites And Sandwich Composite Structures
(2010-10-20)The first part of this dissertation examines application of polyimide matrix composites in severe hygrothermal environments. In particular, this work focuses on prediction of blistering and delamination of moisture-saturated ... -
Dark Aspects Of Cosmology
(2012-08-20)This thesis investigates aspects of dark matter and dark energy and constraints that can be imposed on them from current and future observations. Specifically, we first study the idea that the observed acceleration of the ... -
The Dark Side Of Status: Status Distance And Change As Determinants Of Damaging Intragroup Behavior
(2011-08-31)Most prior research on informal status in groups has used ordinal, ranked-based status differences (i.e., higher-status vs. lower-status) to predict interpersonal behavior. In this research I introduce several additional ... -
The Dark Side Of White Lies: How Gender-Biased Feedback Contributes To The Glass Ceiling
(2014-08-18)Although explicit endorsement of sexism has declined, covert barriers to the advancement of women in the workplace remain. In this dissertation, I argue that women are given benevolent but less accurate feedback about their ... -
Dark Years, Dark Films, Long Shadows: The Occupation, Noir, And National Identity In French Film And Criticism
(2014-01-27)Although the term arises in French film criticism, "noir" has long been associated with American cinema and a certain, recognizable type of visual and thematic style. Through a return to the French critics of the late ... -
Data Center Energy Management
(2012-01-31)Data centers form the underpinnings of the global technology revolution that is cloud computing. There is enormous pressure for data center growth and expansion, to meet the computational demands of an increasingly digital ... -
Data Dependent Random Projections
(2017-05-30)Random projections is a technique used primarily in dimension reduction, in order to estimate distances in data. They can be thought of a linear transformation mapping a data matrix X to a lower dimensional space, where ... -
Data Detection in Massive MU-MIMO Systems
(2019-05-30)Massive multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) will be a core technology in next-generation wireless systems. By equipping the infrastructure base-stations (BSs) with hundreds of antenna elements and serving ... -
Data Driven Hypothesis Modelling Of Dehalococcoides Mccartyi: Predicted Biology And Biomarkers Of Stress In Two Mixed Microbial Communities
(2013-01-28)Transcriptomic and proteomic expression levels were examined in two Dehalococcoides mccartyi (DMC)-containing mixed community cultures (D2 and the commercially available KB1®). These reductively organodehalorespiring ... -
Data Fusion And Distributed Robotic Perception
(2012-01-31)This thesis explores data fusion and distributed robotic perception through a series of theoretical developments, analyses and experiments. First, a GSF with component extended Kalman filters (EKF) is proposed as an approach ... -
Data Management Techniques For Fast Function Approximation
(2009-08-19)Computing and information technology is fundamentally changing the face of modern science. Traditional methods of performing scienti?c studies are now making way for the next generation of methods that use computing ... -
DATA-DRIVEN APPROACHES TO INFORM CLIMATE-ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT IN AGRICULTURE AND WATER RESOURCES SYSTEMS
(2019-05-30)Data science is a powerful tool that supports decision-making in sectors as diverse as healthcare, education, and finance. As the costs of natural disasters continue to rise against the backdrop of a changing climate, data ... -
Data-Driven Dynamics: Estimation in the Presence of Noise
(2018-12-30)Dynamical systems theory is routinely applied to a mathematical model of a process rather than the process itself. In contrast, this dissertation advances a data-driven approach to dynamics in which conclusions are drawn ... -
Data-Driven Material Recognition and Photorealistic Image Editing Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
(2018-08-30)Fully automatic processing of images is a key challenge for the 21st century. Our processing needs lie beyond just organizing photos by date and location. We need image analysis tools that can reason about photos like a ... -
Data-Driven, Free-Form Modeling Of Biological Systems
(2014-01-27)The quantity of data available to scientists in all disciplines is increasing at an exponential rate, yet the insight necessary to distill data into scientific knowledge must still be supplied by human experts. This widening ... -
DEACCLIMATION IN THREE DIMENSIONS: KINETICS, GENETICS AND MORPHOMETRICS OF COLD HARDINESS LOSS IN GRAPEVINES
(2018-08-30)Bud dormancy and cold hardiness are critical adaptations for surviving winter cold stress for temperate perennial plant species. Grapevines (Vitis spp.) resist cold through supercooling of water in their buds, and the level ...
