  • Scholarly Productivity
    re care.mst.edu Scholarly 2019 Productivity Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering 2019 Scholarly Productivity Report -- 1 Shaping the future of built and natural environments of our global society through creative research Changing the World and education. Dear Friends, As we close the door on 2019 and head into 2020, the Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Department notes considerable pride over last year’s accomplishments and anticipates new possibilities for the future. The year 2020 is special to us, as it marks the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Missouri School of Mines (MSM), as the charter was signed on Feb. 24, 1870. Following the founding of MSM, two of the first three graduates earned civil engineering degrees. Those two initial civil engineers — Gustavus Adolphus Duncan and John Holt Gill — started the legacy of civil engineering in Rolla, Missouri, that continues today. Much has changed over those 150 years, but the legacy of high expectations and outstanding work remains the underpinning for all we attempt to accomplish at Missouri S&T. The end of calendar year 2019, marked the target for our aggressive Vision 2020 Strategic Plan. We began this venture in 2011 and will continue to move closer to completing our efforts to advance the CArEE Department. We achieved notable goals, including an increase in scholarly output that led S&T in growth and accomplishment. Our team realized increased productivity in most aspects of our scholarly work. We present our accomplishments here with pride, but we also know our work is not done. Joel G. Burken As a team, the faculty, staff and students made contributions in productivity that saw increases in publications, research expenditures, capabilities and national visibility.

  • Final Report 2016/2017 Project Title: the Stabilization of Marginalized
    Final Report 2016/2017 Project Title: The Stabilization of Marginalized Communities in Guatemala via Food and Nutrition Security on Child Linear Growth: Employing Systems Thinking Tools Project Objectives and Methods The primary objective of this project was to rank order return on investment among interventions to alleviate causal factors reducing child linear growth. A systems analysis, multi-methods approach was utilized to generate and evaluated hypothesized relationships among a set of complex factors. The project was executed by Lee Voth-Gaeddert as part of his doctoral dissertation research under the direction of Professor Daniel Oerther of the Missouri University of Science and Technology. The project included three primary activities, namely: 1) the analysis of three regionally representative datasets using machine learning algorithms to identify potential causal factors contributing to diminished child linear growth, 2) the execution of a field study to confirm the trends identified in activity (1) with an emphasis on enteric dysfunction and the levels of aflatoxin (fungal toxin) in maize, and 3) the development of a systems dynamics model to describe the relationships among causal factors dynamically. The long-term aims of this work include improved access to decision support to help marginalized communities as well as the US Mission to make wise investments to reduce child stunting (defined as severely diminished child linear growth) and prevent erosion in the long-term intellectual potential of target communities. Key Activities Partner engagement (beneficiaries: 3 organizations) – Supported partners on systems thinking methods and approaches to problems. Conducted health information flow analysis for USAID project. Community engagement (beneficiaries: 4 communities; 500 women and children) – Supported health assemblies to promote proper maternal and child health practices.

  • A Novel Approach to Study Response of Activated Sludge to Toxic Shock Loadings
    WEFTEC®.06 QUANTIFICATION OF IN SITU GROWTH ACTIVITY: A NOVEL APPROACH TO STUDY RESPONSE OF ACTIVATED SLUDGE TO TOXIC SHOCK LOADINGS T. Lu,* and D.B. Oerther ** *Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221 ** Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, and Department of Biological Sciences, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221 **Corresponding author. Mailing address: Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Cincinnati, Box 210071, Cincinnati, OH 45221-0071. Phone: (513) 556-3670. Fax: (513) 556-2599. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT A novel denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC)-based technique was developed to rapidly separate and identify signature in pre16S rRNA levels among pure cultures of E.coli and A. calcoaceticus as well as activated sludge samples. The chromatography results showed the distinct differences in retention time of the individual species for pre 16S ssDNA, thus providing a qualitative and quantitative characterization of species in a mixture of pre 16S ssDNA. This study is an expansion of previous results reporting the development of a reverse transcription and primer extension assay, and it is the first to document activated sludge response to toxic shock loadings using DHPLC-based quantification of pre16S rRNA levels. The anticipated outcome is to demonstrate the effectiveness of ribosome genesis as a sensitive indicator of toxic loading. KEYWORDS DHPLC, pre16S rRNA, ribosome genesis, E.coli, Acinetobacter INTRODUCTION The activated sludge system is the most popular form of biological sewage treatment. However, shock loads of toxic chemicals represent a significant problem to activated sludge systems because they disrupt microbial metabolism resulting in a deterioration of process performance (Love et al., 2002).
