(2014-12-12)Corrosion induced deterioration is one of the main reason for repair and rehabilitation programs in conventional steel reinforced concrete bridge decks. Of all bridges in the United States, over 50 percent are constructed ...
-
(2014-09-05)A Chandler 7600 Ultra HPHT Viscometer was setup to imitate well bore conditions of high pressure, high temperature wells, and the research objective was to investigate the reaction of Class H cement with 35% silica and ...

(2014-07-11)Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is a leading textile crop in the world, generating an annual economic benefit of over hundred billion USD. However, few genes controlling fiber quality and yield traits have been cloned and characterized ...
-
(2023-05-03)The first project, “Propensity to Break” in Chapter 1, examined a fiber’s ability to endure mechanical stress which often leads to the accumulation of short fibers. Reducing fiber breakage will reduce short fiber content ...
