The development of an experimental procedure to determine the amount of active internal friction in a rotor-bearing system
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
This research presents a method to determine the active friction force in a free-free rotor. This method is based on Gunter's work in SP-1 13 and assumes that the active internal friction force is a function of bending ...
Design methodology for tracking certain and uncertain non-minimum phase systems
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
A design methodology is developed for obtaining tracking controllers for non-minimum phase systems. The discussion centers around a solution for the error equation E(s) = [1- H(s)] Yd(S)'Tracking error is eliminated by ...
Continuous equal channel angular extrusion of glassy polymers
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
This thesis presents an analysis of Equal Channel Angular Extrusion (ECAE) of polymers, a unique process that controls the state of strain and molecular network orientation during a solid state extrusion. The goal of this ...
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 ...
