Video recording of the first webinar from the Oral History Forum. The theme of the webinar explores how community identity, history, activism, and experiences are represented through oral history.

Grant narrative for the grant, "Connecting Communities with Libraries, Archives, and Historians Through Oral Histories." The University of North Texas (UNT) Department of Information Science, partnering with the UNT Oral History Program, will host a series of forums to identify best practices and strategies to respond to challenges around building, implementing, preserving, and accessing community oral history projects. The project team will convene librarians, archivists, oral history practitioners, public historians, community-based memory workers, and others working in oral history to identify good practices, share challenges and lessons learned, and prepare an actionable roadmap for building, implementing, preserving, and sustaining community oral history projects.

This study demonstrates the vulnerability of species to extreme hydrological events, an increasing threat due to climate change.

This article presents a study using grey relation analysis (GRA) and support vector regression (SVR) algorithm to develop a prediction model to accurately predict internal bond strength (IB) of particleboard production (PB) through particle gluing processing parameters in a PB production line.

Article discusses the state of the science and existing shortcomings in terrestrial bioaccumulation assessment of neutral organic chemicals.

The article aims to quantify maternal mortality throughout the world by underlying cause and age from 1990 to 2015.

This article presents a novel approach of introducing a weighted temporal feature to bias a topic clustering toward articles in a similar time frame, performed over a set of finance journal abstracts from 1974 to 2020 to demonstrate how time can be emphasized in trend detection. The authors detect trending finance topics that are not identifiable when we use a standard clustering approach with no temporal bias.

Study examines the outcomes of popular diets which do not have specific calorie targets, meal replacements, supplementation with commercial products, and/or are not categorized as “low-calorie” diets.

University of North Texas Academic Affairs Strategic Plan 2013-2017 contains information about vision of the Academic Plan Committee from the previous year (2012-2013) and Minutes/Outcomes for Retention Data Workshop (January 2013). It also includes President's Enrollment and Administrative Council Annual Enrollment Direction Priorities Update.

Article describes study examining 182 alpha-theta session graphs from 10 subject case files for interactions between frequency band activity and subject reports of imagery or biographical memories during crossovers, as well as treatment outcomes.

Article demonstrating a thermally tunable acoustic beam splitter using a poly(vinyl alcohol) poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogel (PVA-pNIPAM). The nature of PVA-pNIPAM hydrogel offers exceptional temperature-dependent physical properties due to its phase transition around its lower critical solution temperature. The acoustic impedance of the hydrogel can be tuned below, above, or matched to that of water by changing the environmental temperature. An acoustic wave propagating in water can be split into transmitted and reflected components by the PVA-pNIPAM hydrogel slab on varying its angle of incidence. The intensity ratio between the reflected and the transmitted componence can be adjusted by tuning the temperature of the medium. The acoustic beam can be entirely reflected at a temperature corresponding to the matched impedance between hydrogel and water. The beam-splitting behavior was observed for acoustic waves from both a monochromatic wave and broadband pulse source. In addition, the phase of beam split pulses can be reversed by selecting the hydrogel’s operating temperature.

This article introduces a novel method using longitudinal sound to detect underground soil voids to inspect underwater bed property in terms of effective bulk modulus and effective density of the material properties.

Video recording of UNT's Constitution Day event for 2020 which celebrates the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment granting women the right to vote. The event was a moderated panel presentation with speakers Dr. Christina Bejarano, Texas Woman's University; Dr. Rachel Moran, University of North Texas; and Dr. Andrea Silva, University of North Texas, and moderated by Dr. Rafe Major, University of North Texas.
