Investigation of uranium and various ligand complexes in the gas phase using electrospray ionization ion trap mass spectrometry
(Wichita State University, 2007-12)The speciation and reactivity of uranium is a topic of sustained interest because species dependent chemistry controls processes ranging from nuclear fuel processing to mobility and fate in the geological surface. Past ... -
Investigation of wastewater treatment using waste materials and algae through carbonization and activation processes
(Wichita State University, 2018-12)Clean drinking water is one of the most important issues in the world and will be one of the most studied subjects together with food in the near future. Some freshwater sources are contaminated with sulfur, nitrogen, ... -
Investigation on the electroreduction of nitrate in alkaline media for value-added products
(Wichita State University, 2022-07)As a harmful chemical, nitrate has been increasingly found in agricultural runoff and industrial wastes. The pollution of nitrate is directly responsible for rampant eutrophication in natural waters as well as other ... -

Investigations of cyano-substituted polypyrazolylborate ligands as possible motifs for transition metal complexes and coordination polymers
(Wichita State University, 2016-05)Polypyrazolylborates, also called scorpionates, have been one of the most popular ligands in inorganic and organometallic chemistry since their discovery. In our research lab, we have been working with a class of ... -
Iola, Kansas residential lead contamination
(Wichita State University, 2007-12)In the late 1800’s and early 1900’s lead and zinc mining became prominent in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri. With no knowledge of the effects that would impact the future, the mining companies continued to strip the land. ... -
IP multicast admission control for IPTV
(Wichita State University, 2012-05)Video streaming over the Internet has become the most sought after application and is growing at a very fast rate. Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is a technology that has been growing fast, replacing traditional cable ... -
Is 4k really worth it? A mixed-methods approach to exploring the uses and benefits of high-resolution computer displays for different user populations
(Wichita State University, 2019-12)Advancements in display technology made it easier for manufacturers to develop and sell high-resolution displays (HRDs) to consumers, and HRDs are frequently marketed as beneficial for graphically intense tasks. Therefore, ... -
ISCSI performance for mobile appliances using intermediate target storage
(Wichita State University, 2009-05)Looking at the present demand for mobile services we can predict that there will be an explosive growth in the usage of mobile appliances in the future. But these mobile appliances suffer from significant problems related ... -
iSCSI performance over RDMA-enabled network
(2006-07)With an increase in the amount of information being exchanged every day, there is a need for storage repositories and faster networks to retrieve data with a minimum amount of time delay. Keeping this in mind, inroads have ... -
Islam and France: Cooperation, integration and resistance
(Wichita State University, 2015-12)This research examines France's relationship with its Muslim population. It explains some of France's basic guiding principles in order to understand the general expectations of its citizenry. It also looks at France's ... -
Isotonic regression through the Merge and Chop Algorithm for application in statistical inference
(Wichita State University, 2016-05)In this paper, the theory for the application of the Merge and Chop Algorithm are defined and proven. The algorithm is used to find isotonic regressions in more situations than comparable methods. A program is included ... -
Isotropic positive definite functions on spheres generated from those in Euclidean spaces
(Wichita State University, 2019-05)In this thesis, author have reviewed the classical characterizations of isotropic positive definite functions on Euclidean spaces and spheres, and had applied them to develop a construction of isotropic positive de nite ... -
Iterative EM channel estimation for turbo-coded DS CDMA receiver under different communication scenarios
(Wichita State University, 2008-05)This thesis proposes a scheme of obtaining an estimate of channel coefficients and noise power spectral density (PSD) using iterative expectation maximization based on a turbo-coded code-division multiple-access (CDMA) ... -
Iterative LDPC CDMA receiver with EM estimation
(Wichita State University, 2007-07)This thesis proposed a scheme of obtaining an estimate of channel coefficient and noise power spectral density (PSD), using iterative expectation-maximization (EM) channel estimation, based on a low-density parity-check ... -
Iterative low-complexity multiuser detection and decoding for coded UWB systems
(2006-07)In general, ultra wideband (UWB) signals are transmitted using ~'eIYshort pulses m tiIae domain, thus promising very high data rates. In this thesis, a recei'ler structure is proposed for decoding multiuser information ... -
Jacinto Benavente's attitude toward women as compared with that of authors outside of Spain
