Rao, Shaoqi. "Genetic Analysis of Sheep Discrete Reproductive Traits Using Simulation and Field Data." Diss., Virginia Tech, 1997. http://hdl.handle.net/10919/30490.

Full text

Abstract:

The applicability of restricted maximum likelihood (REML) in genetic analyses of categorical data was evaluated using simulation and field data. Four genetic models were used to simulate underlying phenotypic variates, which were derived as the sum of additive genetic and environmental effects (Model 1A and 1B) or additive genetic and permanent and temporary environmental effects (Model 2A and 2B). Fifty-eight replicates were simulated, each of which contained 5000 ewes by 500 sires and 5000 dams and with up to five records per ewe. The usual transformation of heritability estimated on the cat

Abstract:

The design of the complex addresses Roman Catholic and pre-Christian legends, symbols, and signs. It transforms them based on our understandings of ourselves and our universe today. Saint Barbara is a Roman Catholic Church located on a suburban site in Chantilly, Virginia on the eastern coast of the United States of America. Chantilly was chosen because it has been victimized by a lack of comprehensive planning. The complex is composed of a bell tower, baptistry, Sunday school, sanctuary, outdoor funeral chapel, cemetery, and parking area. The church of Saint Barbara addresses the dichotomy

Abstract:

<p>An analytical model was developed to simulate the stress state of notched tensile specimens. Actual experiments are being carried out by other investigators to study the relaxation of residual stresses in specimens containing stress raisers. In the present work, the stress state developed in notched tensile specimens was assessed by determining the response of the stress state in the form of x-ray line profiles; this is useful in the understanding and measurement of effects due to such stress states obtained in actual experiments.

Abstract:

Stellar photography has found use in the calibration of mapping cameras and in determining the orientation of the stellar cameras serving as attitude sensors, e.g. the lunar mapping cameras on the NASA Apollo 15, 16, and 17 missions. The equations used to relate the image measurements to the attitude of the camera are the collinearity equations of photogrammetry. These require initial approximations to the unknown attitude angles and the use of an iterative Gaussian correction algorithm. Simpler methods are described which do not require initial approximations to the unknown angles. Two of the

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of film thickness on a polystyrene coating used to prevent fretting corrosion in a steel-on-steel system. The polystyrene coating was applied to a 1045 steel disk and fretted against a 52100 steel ball. Two sets of experiments were employed. The first set evaluated film life by using seven different film thicknesses ranging from 7.9 to 52 um. The results from this set of experiments indicated that a drastic increase in film life occurred for coatings thicker than 40 pm. The other set of experiments was used to study how fretting damage progr

Full text

Abstract:

The legitimation of science as the most authoritative form of human knowledge is the result of complex literary and socio-political processes. In the course of the eighteenth century, lay people came to see science as an authority beyond criticism, whose norms are value-neutral, self-evident and absolute. The cultural status that science acquired continued for centuries and, even though it has been challenged in our times, it still is one of the main providers of meaning for social life. It is true that contemporary scholarship has taken important steps to deconstruct such views by pointing ou

Abstract:

Bud necrosis (BN) is observed as an abortion and death of one or more primordia of the developing compound winter bud. Anatomical developments during the onset of BN in 'Riesling' and 'Chardonnay' grapevines were characterized. Examination of ultrathin (1micro m) sections of 'Riesling' buds under a light microscope revealed a zone of compressed cells immediately beneath the primary bud axis within 60 days after budbreak. Cell rupture occurred in that zone within 90 days after budbreak. Scanning electron microscopy revealed a similar pattern of tissue d

Abstract:

Traditionally, standardized achievement tests have been used to monitor program effectiveness. Recently, however, educators have questioned the appropriateness of standardized tests for this purpose, especially for programs designed for young children. Early childhood advocates suggest using developmentally appropriate assessments instead of standardized achievement tests for making classroom-level decisions about children and for program evaluation. Proponents, however, have not fully identified the psychometric properties of the assessments, certainly not for the purposes of program

Abstract:

Humans and other animals typically consume less of novel foods than of familiar ones, a phenomenon termed ingestional neophobia. Young children display especially high levels of neophobia, spitting out new foods but accepting those same foods after familiarization. Rejection of novel foods presumably reflects the aversiveness of the food's novel sensory cues, which thereby occasions withdrawal. Familiar foods typically evoke acceptance, suggesting that familiar foods are not categorically aversive. According to a biphasic model of emotion, negative affective behaviors (e.g., withdrawal) are en

Minimum mass designs are obtained for a simple box beam structure subject to bending, torque and combined bending/torque load cases. These designs are obtained subject to point strain and linear buckling constraints. The present work differs from previous efforts in that special attention is payed to including the effects of subcomponent panel interaction in the optimal design process. Two different approaches are used to impose the buckling constraints. When the global approach is used, buckling constraints are imposed on the global structure via a linear eigenvalue analysis.
