    • Material and processes selection in conceptual design 
      Krishnakumar, Karthikeyan (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
      Materials and manufacturing processes are an integral part of the design of a product. The need to combine materials and manufacturing processes selection during the early stages of the design has previously been realized. ...
    • Multifunctional Composites and Devices for Sensing and Energy Harvesting 
      Cleveland, Michael Allen (2011-08-08)
      This research investigates a novel class of active materials for energy and sensing applications. Magnetocaloric alloys, Gd5Si2Ge2, were developed into a composite with poly(vinylidine flouride) (PVDF), piezoelectric ...
    • Optimal Material Model for Analysis of Wood Guardrail 
      De La Fuente, Nataly (2018-04-12)
      The overall performance of guardrail systems is mostly dependent on the strength of the wood posts. Therefore, developing an accurate model of wood post components of guardrail systems is essential. Wood posts are among ...
