(Psychology, 2010-03-03)
The current study evaluated performance of 2443/2444 students and the use of WebCT. Undergraduate psychology majors at UT Arlington who successfully completed PSYC 2443 and 2444, Research Design and Statistics I and II, ...
Thioacetamide As A Sulfur Precursor For Chalcopyrite Thin Film Solar Cells
(Materials Science & Engineering, 2010-03-03)
Chalcopyrite CuInS₂ (CIS) thin films have the potential to be used in low cost terrestrial photovoltaic applications. The band gap of CIS is around 1.5 eV [1] and it well matches with the solar spectrum. However, the ...
Low Complexity H.264 To VC-1 Transcoder
(Electrical Engineering, 2010-11-01)
The high definition video adoption has been growing rapidly for the last five years. The H.264 and VC-1 coding standards are two of the recent and dominant coding standards. Compared to H.264, VC-1 is less complex but ...
Animal Welfare: Societal Perspectives And The Path To Permanent Change
(Criminology & Criminal Justice, 2010-03-03)
During the past 200 years animal welfare has been changing in a direction that is providing animals with a protection they have not always had. As society began to research the study of animal dynamics, there was a discovery ...
Formation Of Au Nanoparticles Through Reaction Of Na₃Au(SO₃)₂ By Electrochemically Evolved Hydrogen
(Materials Science & Engineering, 2010-07-19)
Hydrogen evolution during electrochemical deposition has long been regarded as undesired and deliberately suppressed since small hydrogen bubbles could cause a rough surface of deposits. Here, we demonstrate a new role for ...
