Purpose
This study compared existing Oregon elementary school physical
education facilities and equipment with those facilities and equipment
items perceived to be essential for a quality physical education program
by nationally selected physical education specialists.
Procedures
A survey form was mailed to 110 national educators proposed by
state directors of...
Clock-feedthrough effects, channel-length modulation and device mismatch are
the main causes of the inaccuracy of Switched-Current (SI) circuits. In this paper, these
non-ideal effects are analyzed. A high-performance current mirror, namely regulated
cascode current mirror, which eliminates drain voltage variation problem is introduced.
By using this current mirror as a...
Seed yield in perennial ryegrass is the product of yield components
that develop during the life of the plant. Crop yield potential is
defined by the number of fertile tillers, spikelets per spike, and
florets per spikelet. It has been shown that perennial ryegrass
realizes only a small percentage of...
In this dissertation, two important current mode circuit design subjects have
been explored. In the first part, the switched-current circuit technique has been
investigated. The fundamental performance and limitations of this technique are
explored. One of the major limitations, the signal distortion caused by clock
feedthrough has been substantially reduced...
In this paper, an analysis of the clock-feedthrough effects in
switched-current (SI)' circuits will be presented. The clock-feedthrough
effects caused by the non-ideal characteristic of MOS
switches when they are turned off limit the accuracy of the analog
track-and-hold (T/H) circuits. A model to analyze and characterize this
effect is...
An investigation of Mn uptake by five-day-old excised barley
roots revealed that a metabolically-mediated process was involved.
In short-term experiments, the rate of Mn absorption was comparable
to that of the macronutrient cations. Like other metabolically
absorbed cations, the Mn absorption rate was a direct function of
the ambient concentration...
This dissertation focuses on the behavior of security returns around certain events that occurred in the Saudi stock market. In the first study, we measure and analyze the reaction of security returns around a major horizontal merger that occurred in the banking industry in Saudi Arabia. The objective of this...
