Interface-trap charge-pump temperature sensor
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
This thesis deals with a new method to measure die surface temperature of VLSI chips. On-chip temperature sensors are widely used in newer VLSI circuits as a monitoring technique for fault detection and prevention. The ...
VLSI implementation of encoder and decoder for low-density parity-check codes
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The aim of this research is to implement an encoder and a message-passing decoder for low-density parity-check codes in hardware. The desired data rate is 44.8 Mbps and the channel is an Additive White Gaussian Noise(AWGN) ...
Influence of glyphosate on growth and yield of glyphosate-tolerant cotton
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Transgenic cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cultivars expressing herbicide tolerance to topical applications of herbicides are commercially available. It has been documented that under certain conditions, applications of ...
Marine vertical cable multiple attenuation beyond up/down separation
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Marine vertical cable acquisition is an emerging technology. It represents an alternative to surface seismic acquisition in areas congested by platforms or other obstacles. The vertical cable acquisition consists of recording ...
Numerical techniques of rigid body simulation
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
In recent years, the modeling of physical phenomena has become an integral part of computer applications in diverse areas from engineering to entertainment. This thesis focuses on a particular aspect of this modeling, ...
Web integrated cost estimation system in architecture education
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Innovations in computer technology in the last decade have provided us with new methods of communication and collaboration. Some of the major developments are the Internet, intranets, and the extranets. Collaborative ...
Architecture, ideology and cultural values: journalistic coverage of skyscrapers in the New York Times and the People's Daily
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Previous researchers have developed the idea that cultural values are reflected in human acts and artifacts. Some knowledge about mainstream values in a society can be gained by analyzing human artifacts such as architecture ...
Evaluation of polymer free drill-in fluids for use in high productivity, horizontal well completions
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Advancements in deepwater drilling have necessitated the use of more specialized reservoir drill-in fluids (RDIF). These RDIFs must exhibit unique rheological properties while minimizing formation damage. Xanthan gum ...
Internship experience at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
During the summer of 2001, I completed a three-month internship at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University located in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. I learned a great deal about the history, maintenance operations, ...
Locating deep reservoirs with economic potential in the Texas Gulf Coast using AVO
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Sandstone reservoirs deeper then 3200 m (10,500 ft) are potentially rich sources of hydrocarbon in the Texas Gulf Coast. This study focused on deep potential reservoirs in the Edna Field, located in Jackson Co, TX. Due ...
