Experimental study of the effects of wakes on separation in low pressure turbine flow
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
The present study, which is the first of a series of investigations dealing with specific issues of low pressure turbine (LPT) boundary layer aerodynamics, is aimed at providing a detailed unsteady boundary flow ...
Practical image based lighting
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
In this thesis, we present a user-friendly and practical method for seamless integration of computer-generated images (CG) with real photographs and video. In general such seamless integration is extremely hard and requires ...

With formal beginnings in the 1960s, outdoor adventure education programs numbered over 300 after just two decades (Burton, 1981). Today, it is estimated that over 700 organizations offer wilderness programs for personal ...
ADCP backscatter measurements in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico: comparison of near-surface with near-bottom biological backscatter
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
In the Gulf of Mexico, acoustic backscatter intensity (ABI) from an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) can be a proxy for zooplankton and micronekton biomass, and sperm whale abundance is correlated with regions of ...
