-
(1983)Many researchers conclude that one of the major obstacles to overcome in the widespread acceptance of plant oils as a fuel source in diesel engines is the elimination of residues that wear engine parts, contaminate engine ...
-
(1990)The increase in size and complexity of scientific and engineering datasets has dictated the need for efficient Computer Graphics systems for visualization. Such graphics systems require high speed transformation of vertices ...
-
(1997)In the area of underwater vehicle design, the development of highly maneuverable vehicles is presently of interest with their design being based on the swimming techniques and anatomic structures of fish; primarily the ...
-
(1997)Americans now live in a world of convenience. The emergence of dual income families has resulted in a population that relies heavily on prepackaged/preprepared foods. The quality of commercially prepared foods is definitely ...
-
(1984)Deflection is often the dominant design criterion of a flexural member. The theoretical methods commonly used to determine beam deflections become extremely complex for irregular and combined loading conditions. A finite ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)Electronic components produce heat that hinders their performance and reliability. Heat pipes, two-phase heat transfer devices, may be used to effectively cool electronic components. This project focuses on two different ...
-
(1990)The objective of this research is to investigate the application of Artificial Neural Network techniques to the area of computer-aided design of electronic circuits. A major problem in this area is the analysis (especially ...

-
(1984)Before attempting to artificially induce a state of concomitant immunity, the theory why concomitant immunity exists in vivo must be examined. Most likely, due to their common genetic material, the adult worms and schistosomula ...
-
(1981)This report concludes a year of investigative research in artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence is a field of computer science in which recreating human behavior in machines is the main subject; the field is ...
-
(1978)Most of the games studied by Artificial Intelligence researchers are games of perfect information. In this research, however, the author studies a game of imperfect information. This is because often in real life, decisions ...
-
(1996)The adaptive nature of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) makes them a powerful tool for modeling complex processes. ANNs are inherently nonlinear and process signals in a parallel manner. These qualities make them suitable ...
