(2019-08-14)The moisture effect on the work of adhesion of asphalt binder and mineral aggregates was investigated using molecular dynamic simulation. The implemented asphalt model, based on the OPLS-AA force field, was validated in ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)A new, continuously weighed pycnometer has been constructed for fast and accurate density measurements. This apparatus consists of a sample cell that is suspended from an electronic balance at all times. The sample cell ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This study focussed on the reduced platen compression (RPC) testing of the cancellous bone of the proximal tibia. The objective of this study was to improve the current testing methods with an emphasis on the location of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)A combined Burnett-isochoric apparatus was designed and constructed to measure the pressure, density and temperature (P[rho]T) properties of corrosive fluids between 200 and 450 K to pressures of 21 MPa. Automated temperature ...
-
(2014-10-01)One of the goals of nuclear physics is to study the Equation of State (EOS) of nuclear matter. In order to create the nuclear matter at different densities, we collide different nuclei and detect the fragments after the ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) has been described as an emerging risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The complexity of the Lp(a) molecule sets a challenge for the determination of the risk it represents for the cardiovascular ...

(2012-02-14)The Lower Keys marsh rabbit (Sylvilagus palustris hefneri, LKMR), 1 of 3 subspecies of Sylvilagus palustris, is endemic to the Lower Florida Keys. The LKMR is listed as an endangered species due to predation by feral and ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Florida Key deer (Odocoileus virginianus clavium) were listed as endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) in 1967. A variety of survey methods have been used in estimating deer density and/or changes in ...
-
(2011-08-08)Natural Gas (NG) plays an important role in the energy demand in the United States and throughout the world. Its characteristics as a clean, versatile and a sustainable source of energy makes it an important alternative ...
-
(2016-07-14)Kerogen presents challenges when performing well-log-based petrophysical evaluation in organic-rich mudrocks. Two such challenges are the electrical conductivity of thermally matured kerogen and the lack of reliable estimates ...
-
(2009-06-02)Highly accurate density data is required for engineering calculations to make property estimations in natural gas custody transfer through pipelines. It is also essential to have accurate pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)A semi-automated vibrating tube densimeter designed for operations between 100 and 700 K and to 70 MPa is described. This densimeter features continuous flow of the sample fluid and a fluid conditioning system that rapidly ...
-
(2019-11-13)Damage in concrete has been modeled using various approaches such as fracture mechanics, continuum damage mechanics and failure envelope theories. The current research proposes a new approach to model damage in concrete ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)Compaction of soil is essential in the construction of highways, airports, buildings, and bridges. Typically compaction is controlled by measuring the dry density and the water content of the compacted soil and checking ...
