A quadratic cumulative production model for the material balance of an abnormally pressured gas reservoir
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
The premise of this research is the concept, development, and application of an approximate relation for the material balance of abnormally-pressured gas reservoirs. The approximation is formulated directly from the ...
Energy efficiency in wireless networks
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Energy is a critical resource in the design of wireless networks since wireless devices are
usually powered by batteries. Battery capacity is finite and the progress of battery technology
is very slow, with capacity expected ...
Analysis, comparison and modification of various Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) algorithms
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
A program based on particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) was developed in this work. The
program was successfully validated by means of artificial images where parameters such as radius,
concentration, and noise were varied ...
Development of a cell-based stream flow routing model
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)
This study presents the development of a cell-based routing model. The model developed is a two parameter hydrological routing model that uses a coarse resolution stream network to route runoff from each cell in the watershed ...
Mesoscale ensemble-based data assimilation and parameter estimation
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
The performance of the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) in forced, dissipative
flow under imperfect model conditions is investigated through simultaneous state and
parameter estimation where the source of model error is the ...
Constructive hierarchy through entitlement: inequality in lithic resource access among the ancient Maya of Blue Creek, Belize
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
This dissertation tests the theory that lithic raw materials were a strategic resource among the ancient Maya of Blue Creek, Belize that markedly influenced the development of socio-economic hierarchies at the site. Recent ...
