COTTON – GRAPHENE BASED NANO-COMPOSITES AS A SEMI-SUSTAINABLE MATERIAL FOR OIL AND CHEMICAL CLEANUP (2018-08-06)The world is facing severe ecological and environmental problems due to the oil spills and the discharge of organic solvents into the environment. This problem has led to development of different tools and high performance ...
-
(2021-08-19)A symbiosis of Renewable Energy Sources with an Alternative Energy Source is necessary to satisfy the ever-changing energy demands. Solar and wind energy are taken into consideration, yet the intermittency of both present ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Green rusts (GRs), a group of layered Fe(II)-Fe(III) hydroxide salts, have been observed to be effective reductants for degrading organic and inorganic contaminants under suboxic conditions. Furthermore, the addition of a ...
-
(2022-12-07)Networks require a balance between pathway efficiency and pathway redundancy. Efficient networks save on resources but are susceptible to interruption by disturbances. Redundant networks are more resilient against disturbances ...
-
(2021-05-11)The ignition of flammable liquids on hot surfaces is both a safety concern to industry and an important phenomenon for IC engines and some liquid propellant igniters. Hot-surface ignition is a function of fluid properties ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)This research investigated the need, design, and evaluation of a product capable of providing support to forward-leaning postures. Due to the high occurrence of low-back pain in industry potentially due to workers performing ...
-
(2016-05-03)Multiple vital industries, especially those in the energy sector, are vulnerable to unexpected detonation events. Extremely destructive and difficult to predict, the processes by which they are formed and the limits over ...
-
(2017-05-05)Rehabilitation options for transfemoral amputees are limited, and no product today can mimic the full functionality of a human limb. Powered prosthetics have potential to close this gap but contain major drawbacks which ...
-
(2011-10-21)A process for recycling spent nuclear fuel cladding, a zirconium alloy (Zircaloy), into a metal powder that may be used for advanced nuclear fuel applications, was investigated to determine if it is a viable strategy. The ...
-
(2017-12-14)Interests in using rare-earth free motors such as switched reluctance motors (SRMs) for electric and hybrid electric vehicles (EV/HEVs) continue to gain popularity, owing to their low cost and robustness. Optimal design ...

-
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)The focus of the present thesis is the circuit-level implementation of an excess loop delay compensation scheme which optimizes excess loop delay in Analog-to-Digital Converter(ADC) by using a programmable delay block and ...
-
(2020-12-02)Failure detection of DC motors is a common study, and could be extremely useful in real world applications. Undiagnosed eminent motor failure could cause a range of effects, and without maintenance will inevitably occur. ...
-
(2009-05-15)This research develops a procedure to determine the applied stresses in rails using the acoustoelastic effect of ultrasonic waves. Acoustoelasticity is defined as the stress dependency of ultrasonic wave speed or wave ...
-
(2018-08-06)An optimization-based supply chain management framework for statewide analyses of renewable ammonia production to electricity generation systems for Texas. With optimized renewable ammonia production plants of differing ...
-
(2018-08-06)Solving the environmental and societal problems associated with rising greenhouse gas (GHS) emissions and climate change are crucialchallenges our global society is currently facingin order tosecurea sustainable future.A ...
-
(2009-05-15)Escalation of right-of-way (ROW) costs have been shown to be a prime contributor to project cost escalation in the highway industry. Two problems contribute to ROW cost escalation: 1) the ROW cost estimation and cost ...
