Time in quantum mechanics
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The role of time in quantum mechanics has been and is still very controversial. The purpose of this paper was to explore the historical interpretation of time in quantum mechanics, to determine the current status of this ...
Statistical comparison of two-phase flow, void fraction fluctuations in a microgravity environment
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
A two-phase flow experiment was flown aboard the NASA KC-135 zero gravity aircraft to test void fraction sensors and collect void fraction data under the unique conditions of microgravity. Void fraction measurements were ...
A closer look at non-uniqueness during dynamic data integration
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Characterizing heterogeneous permeable media using dynamic data such as transient pressure, tracer or multiphase production history typically requires the solution of an inverse problem. These inverse problems apart from ...
Influences on farmland values in urban Texas counties and the State
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Farmland values have been a highly researched topic for the past several decades. Interest was spurred initially by increased variability between land values and farm income during the 1950's. Prior research sought to ...
Development and application of a procedure to estimate overall building and ventilation parameters from monitored commercial building energy use
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
This thesis proposes and validates a simplified model appropriate for parameter identification and evaluates several different inverse parameter identification schemes suitable for use when heating and cooling data from a ...
The development and application of a questionnaire designed to measure pre-existing, process, and outcome variables in the productivity measurement and enhancement
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The ProMES questionnaire was developed to assess individuals' experiences as they relate to the implementation of the Productivity Measurement and Enhancement System. The questionnaire, which resulted in a total of 30 ...
Reservoir characterization of Yates Formation (Permian, Guadalupian), South Ward field, Ward County, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The Yates Formation is a prominent hydrocarbon producing unit in the Permian Basin of west Texas. Production is predominantly from very fine grained sandstones and siltstones that are interbedded with carbonates. The ...
A theoretical study of discrete air phase migration contaminated with a volatile organic
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
A theoretical study of discrete air phase migration contaminated with a volatile organic is developed in order to study air bubble migration through granular porous media in air sparging technology. The experiment is ...
A descriptive analysis of updated information and an evaluation of the effects of non-response in a case-control study of breast cancer and maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The participants or their proxies of a case-control study of the relationship between maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and breast cancer (target population) were invited to complete a mail questionnaire to gather ...
A WWW-based in-class response system
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Using the current network infrastructure and the Internet capabilities, a WWW-based in-class-response system is developed from which the instructor can obtain instant feedback about the student's comprehension level during ...
