Impact of CAD on the submittal process
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
The efficiency and accuracy of design is critical for construction success. The realization of design is dependent on complete and coordinated design documents that are finalized through the submittal process. This process ...
Distinguishing carbonate reservoir pore facies with nuclear magnetic resonance as an aid to identify candidates for acid stimulation
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
The determination of reservoir quality and its spatial distribution is a key objective in
reservoir characterization. This is especially challenging for carbonates because, due to
the effects of diagenesis, quality rarely ...
LIRIOMYZA LEAFMINERS, ASSOCITED PARASITOIDS AND INSECTICIDE EVALUATION IN SOUTH TEXAS
(2010-07-14)
In the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas, dipterous leafminers cause damage to
pepper crop by destroying small plants (excessive mining), reduction of yield, and by
vectoring plant diseases. The objectives of the present ...
Comparison of computation methods for CBM production performance
(2009-06-02)
Coalbed methane (CBM) reservoirs have become a very important natural resource around the world. Because of their complexity, calculating original gas in place and analyzing production performance require consideration of ...
Reactivity of ethylene oxide in contact with contaminants
(2009-05-15)
Ethylene oxide (EO) is a very versatile compound with considerable energy in its ring
structure. Its reactions proceed mainly via ring opening and are highly exothermic.
Under some conditions, it is known to undergo a ...
Birth, weaning, carcass, and meat traits in Bos indicus-Bos taurus reciprocal backcross calves produced through embryo transfer
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Angus - Bos indicus (Brahman or Nellore) reciprocal backcross embryo transfer
calves belonging to 28 full-sib families were evaluated for differences in birth weight
(BW), gestation length (GL), weaning weight (WW), ...
The use of maximum rate of dissipation criterion to model beams with internal dissipation
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This thesis deals with a systematic procedure for the derivation of exact expression for the frequency equation of composite beams undergoing forced vibration with damping. The governing differential equations of motion ...

(2010-01-16)
The main objectives of this investigation were to determine the impact of climate
on mountain birch (Betula pubecens ssp. czerepanovii (Orlova)) growth and to develop a
regional chronology of autumnal moth outbreaks. To ...
