Proposed Nonparametric Tests for the Simple Tree Alternative for Location and Scale Testing in a Mixed Design
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Six nonparametric tests are proposed for the mixed design consisting of a randomized complete block design (RCBD) and a completely randomized design (CRD). The proposed tests are designed to test for differences in location ...
Effectiveness of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Ventilation Devices With Protective Hockey Equipment as Performed by Certified Athletic Trainers
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Certified Athletic Trainers (ATCs) are expected to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on athletes experiencing cardiac arrest regardless of the protective equipment worn by the athlete. Additionally, ventilation ...
Development of Quantification and Diagnosis Methods for Cereal Bacterial Leaf Streak Pathogens
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) has been a major disease on wheat and barley in the Northern Great Plains. It is caused by Xanthomonas translucens pv. undulosa (Xtu) on wheat and X. translucens pv. translucens (Xtt) on barley. ...
Genome Wide Association Study of Basic Fruit Chemistry in the Cold Climate Wine Grapes (Vitis spp.)
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
To overcome some of these challenges posed by ND climate, the utilization of native wild Vitis-derived varieties is the best possible option available. Despite advantageous environmental tolerances of native wild Vitis ...
Study of Freezing Tolerance After Cold Acclimation Followed by Deacclimation in Winter and Spring Canola (Brassica napus L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Winter canola/rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) produced 20 to 30% greater yield over spring canola. It overwinters to flower in spring. The winter type shows increased freezing tolerance after cold acclimation, which is crucial ...
The Effects of Humeral Retroversion on Range of Motion in the Throwing Athlete
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between shoulder rotational range of motion once accounting for humeral retroversion (HR) and the Functional Arm Scale for Throwers (FAST). The following research ...
A Domain-Knowledge Modeling of Hospital-Acquired Infection Risk in Healthcare Personnel From Retrospective Observational Data: A Case Study for Covid-19
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Healthcare personnel (HCP) is facing a consistent risk of viral infections. We proposed a domain-knowledge-driven infection risk model to quantify the individual HCP and the population-level risks. For individual-level ...
Long-Term Monitoring of Bat Populations in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Throughout the past few decades, North American bat species have experienced population declines due to White-Nose Syndrome, wind energy, climate change, and other factors. In North Dakota, the presence of wind energy, and ...
Management Influences on Plant Community Composition in the Prairie Pothole Region
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Remnant prairies in the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) should serve as repositories of native plant species, yet disrupted ecological process, invasive species, potential nitrogen deposition, climate change, and numerous ...
Three Essays on Renewable Jet Fuel Supply Chain Network Design and Traffic Safety
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Because of rising energy consumption, climate change, and environmental concerns about fossil fuels, finding alternative renewable energy sources is becoming increasingly crucial. With the non-advanced share of the U.S. ...
