Ethnic identities and nationalism in the streets: The political manipulation of art and religion in Trinidad, West Indies
(2014-02-14)
The identity of a community is shaped by socio-economic factors as well as history. The Caribbean island of Trinidad is characterized by a weak economy, high unemployment, and a variety of ethnic, class, and religious ...
Notes 10. A thermohydrodynamic bulk-flow model for fluid film bearings
(2009)
The complete set of bulk-flow equations for the analysis of turbulent flow fluid film bearings. Importance of thermal effects in process fluid applications. A CFD method for solution of the bulk-flow equations.
Reservoir management using streamline simulation
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Geostatistical techniques can generate fine-scale description of reservoir properties that honor a variety of available data. The differences among multiple geostatistical realizations indicate the presence of uncertainty ...
Evaluation of a shoreline cleaner for enhanced removal of petroleum from a wetland
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The impact and performance of a shoreline cleaning agent in the environment, Corexit®9580 (EC9580®), was evaluated by conducting a controlled release of weathered crude oil (Arabian-light) in May 1998 at a well characterized ...
Two computational approaches for creating Chinese painting
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
In this thesis two computational approaches for creating Chinese painting are developed. The first approach uses an expressive paint tool that enables anyone to paint 2D Chinese paintings in real-time. The realistic ...
Two experiments for measuring specific viscoelastic cohesive zone parameters
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
A micromechanical model for a viscoelastic cohesive zone has been previously formulated and based on a continuum mechanics model of the damage zone ahead of the crack tip in a polymer solid. The scale of the cohesive zone ...
Patterns of habitat use by fishes associated with Sargassum mats in the Gulf of Mexico, with an emphasis on the greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili)
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Distribution and abundance of fishes associated with Sargassum mats in the NW Gulf of Mexico were examined off northern (Galveston) and southern (Port Aransas) Texas from May-August, 2000. A total of 37 species (17 families) ...
Role of midgap states in the inelastic tunneling between a d-wave superconductor and a normal metal
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Midgap states are a special type of quasiparticle states in a d-wave superconductor which are bound to any non-{n,0,m} surface (or interface) and have essentially zero energy with respect to the Fermi energy. We investigate ...
Predicting the past: archaeological predictive modeling in Central Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Currently there is a debate raging among archaeologists regarding the origin and timeframe of the first inhabitants of the New World. Clovis archaeological sites are currently the oldest widely accepted occupation, and ...
