Cooperative self-localization in a multi-robot-no-landmark scenario using fuzzy logic
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
In this thesis, we develop a method using fuzzy logic to do cooperative localization. In a group of robots, at a given instant, each robot gives crisp pose estimates for all the other robots. These crisp pose values are ...
Evaluation of high strength concrete prestressed bridge girder design
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This research study focuses on evaluating the design of HSC prestressed bridge
girders. Specifically there were three major objectives. First, to determine the current state of practice for the design of HSC prestressed ...
Discovering relationships in genetic regulatory networks
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The development of cDNA microarray technology has made it possible to simultaneously monitor the expression status of thousands of genes. A natural use for this vast amount of information would be to try and figure ...
Metmyoglobin reducing ability and visual characteristics of nine selected bovine muscles
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Nine bovine muscles (m. adductor, m. gluteobiceps, m. gluteus medius, m. longissimus lumborum, m. longissimus thoracis, m. psoas major, m. semimembranosus,
m. supraspinatus and m. semitendinosus) were removed from beef ...
In vivo infection biology of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia
(2009-05-15)
Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia (CBPP), caused by Mycoplasma mycoides
mycoides small colony (MmmSC), is a devastating respiratory disease of cattle in Africa,
Asia and the Middle East. Little investigation has been done ...
Municipal performance: does mayoral quality matter?
(2009-05-15)
This research addresses the question of what explains municipal performance in
terms of delivering social services and fiscal performance. While the existing literature
explains governmental performance with political, ...
On the development of Voice over IP
(2009-05-15)
This record of study documents the experience acquired during my internship at Sonus
Networks, Inc. for the Doctor of Engineering Program.
In this record of study, I have surveyed and analyzed the current standardization
status ...
Seasonal analysis of abiotic factors impacting phytoplankton assemblages in Offatts Bayou, Galveston, Texas
(2009-05-15)
The aim of this investigation in Offatts Bayou was to quantify natural shifts in
distributions and abundances of algal groups and to examine spatio-temporal patterns of
abiotic and biotic characteristics in the water column ...
Synthesis, characterization, anion complexation and electrochemistry of cationic Lewis acids
(2009-05-15)
Owing to the favored Coulombic attraction between the ammonium group and
anion which stabilizes the B-F/B-CN bond against heterolysis, cationic borane [25]+ has
great affinity toward anions than its neutral analog, and is ...
Performance analysis of fault-tolerant nanoelectronic memories
(2009-05-15)
Performance growth in microelectronics, as described by Moore’s law, is steadily
approaching its limits. Nanoscale technologies are increasingly being explored as a
practical solution to sustaining and possibly surpassing ...
