Spring 2014
Adipose tissue plays an important role in the energetic balance, but it is also an important aspect of meat quality and animal productivity. However, the understanding on how fat metabolism is regulated in beef cattle is not clear. This research aimed at exploring how bovine adipose tissue is...

Fall 2013
This thesis is concerned with identification of switched linear systems (SLSs), which is an important part in model-based control. There are a large number of physical systems that can be represented or approximated by SLSs. Therefore, the study of SLSs has attracted much attention over the past...

Proteins, which participate in virtually every process within cells, implement many of their functions through interactions with various ligands. Although a substantial effort in characterization and prediction of protein-ligand interactions was observed in the past two decades, these subjects...

Interfacing Silicon-Based Quantum Dots with Proteins for Biological and Sensing Applications
DownloadFall 2020
This dissertation presents the preparation of functional bioinorganic hybrids from silicon-based quantum dots (SiQDs) and enzymes and the use of SiQDs and green fluorescent protein as ratiometric photoluminescent sensors for nerve agents. Chapter 2 discusses the preparation of water-soluble...

Sacred Space and Community Identities: Sanctuaries in Broader Thessaly from the Archaic to the Early Roman Periods
DownloadSpring 2021
This study examines the roles of sacred spaces in Thessaly as agents in the formation, maintenance, and negotiation of group identities in Thessaly from the Archaic period until the beginning of the Roman Imperial Period in Greece. I demonstrate that the individuals who formed the communities of...

Simultaneous measurement of protein and energy metabolism and application to determine lysine requirements in sows
DownloadSpring 2011
Simultaneous measurements of energy and protein metabolism can provide valuable information about their interactions. Dietary lysine is limiting in typical feedstuffs fed to swine and, therefore, limits protein synthesis. Current recommendations for dietary amino acid and energy intakes may not...

Fall 2013
State inference and identification of discrete-time, non-linear, stochastic state-space models (SSMs) are considered here. A novel sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) based Bayesian method for simultaneous on-line state inference and identification of non-linear SSMs is proposed. Extension of the method...

Fall 2014
In this thesis, time-varying behaviour, nonlinearity and switching dynamics are generally treated as multi-modal behaviour. Two multi-model modelling techniques, i.e., the linear parameter varying (LPV) technique and the switched modelling technique, are investigated to model the multi-modal...
