(2017-06-27)Particle size and size resolved hygroscopicity distributions measured at the ARM SGP site from 2009 to 2012 were used to study new particle formation (NPF) and subsequent growth, variation in hygroscopicity and mixing state ...
-
(2009-05-15)The Georgia Department of Transportation has been installing steel pedestals on bridges, ranging in height up to 33½” (0.85m) to increase the vertical clearance of many multi-span simply-supported and multi-span continuous ...
-
(2015-12-07)Extracellular matrix is a complex network of molecules that accomplishes various roles within each tissue. The mechanical properties and biochemical composition of the extracellular matrix vary considerably across tissues. ...
-
(2017-10-26)Unconventional reservoirs are getting an increase in attention in the oil and gas industry. This is because of the high energy demands from all over the world, which cannot be satisfied by conventional resources alone. ...
-
(2015-05-21)The spill of many chemicals such as Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) on land or water results in its rapid vaporization and the formation of a dense cloud. The performance of a risk assessment for the spill of flammable chemicals ...
-
(2022-12-09)In development, the body plan for an organism must be executed properly for its survival. This is accomplished by a collaborative effort by genes that form gene regulatory networks (GRNs) that have several redundancies ...
-
The nectar-feeding Mexican long-nosed bat (Leptonycteris nivalis or L. nivalis) population has been experiencing a steep decline over the past ten years. Conservation of this species is vital for the mutualistic relationship ...
-
(2017-04-27)The burning rates of IPDI-cured AP/HTPB propellants with a standard curing ratio were analyzed. It is well known that the particle size of AP as well as their concentration greatly affects the burning rate, yet there exists ...
-
(2021-04-28)Crowd simulations are a popular narrative tool in the entertainment industry and rely heavily on crowd characters for their effectiveness. The traditional processes employed for modeling characters are expensive and ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Crystals are natural phenomena that exhibit high degrees of order, symmetry, and recursion. They naturally form interesting and inspiring geometric shapes. This thesis provides geometric modeling techniques for creating ...
-
(2023-05-05)Dengue is a vector-borne viral disease affecting humans that is endemic in tropical and subtropical areas worldwide. As a re-emerging disease, a growing body of literature is dedicated to the dynamic, clinico-epidemiology ...
-
(2012-02-14)The cow/calf phase of production represents a large expense in the production of beef, and efficient beef cows use fewer resources to obtain the same outcome in a sustainable environment. The objective of study 1 was to ...
-
(2023-02-14)The Western United States (WUS), also known as the American West and the Far West, is the largest region in the country, taking up almost half of the contiguous United States’ total land area. The vast region has various ...
-
(2022-07-25)A Multiphysics analysis framework is developed for predicting the behavior of samples being irradiated in a rabbit system, particularly that of the versatile test reactor. The work de-couples, simplifies, and then re-couples ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)The coupling of real-time measurements and numerical models will be important in overcoming the challenges in environmental and oceanographic assessments in surface waters. Continuous monitoring will take advantage of ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)This dissertation deals with the development of a model-based diagnostic system for air brake systems that are widely used in commercial vehicles, such as trucks, tractor-trailers, buses, etc. The performance of these brake ...
-
(2010-10-12)The Woodlands, Texas, is a 27,000-acre new town created with Ian McHarg's ecohydrological planning approach. The Woodlands is the best example of ecologically based new town planning in the United States during the 1970s. ...
