(Texas A&M University, 1993)Not available
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Since the early seventies, the usefulness of satellite imagery for producing vegetation maps has been well known. Even small scale imagery such as advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) has been applied to ...
-
(2013-07-02)The interplay between convective processes and the stabilizing effects of largescale systems remains debated, especially for warmer climates. We study sets of simulations of past and present climates in which carbon dioxide ...
-
(2011-08-08)Accurate determination of the tropopause is important for applications such as dynamical analysis and forecasting, radiative transfer calculations, and the diagnosis of chemical transport in the atmosphere. In this paper, ...
-
(2012-02-14)This work provides first and second-order expressions to approximate neighboring solutions to the m-point boundary value problem. Multi-point problems arise in optimal control because of interior constraints or switching ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2000)Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV) can pose a serious design threat for offshore structures, especially slender cylindrical deepwater structure like a spar. Numerous studies have been conducted in developing prediction models ...
-
(2010-10-12)Since the devastating hurricane seasons of 2004, 2005, and 2008, the stability and serviceability of coastal bridges during and following hurricane events have become a main public concern. Twenty coastal bridges, critical ...
-
(2023-05-01)This dissertation investigates extreme temperature events, their drivers, and their impact on society across three main sections. As the climate warms, understanding these events and their consequences becomes increasingly ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)A study of the extreme ultaviolet radiation emitted by ion beams of highly ionized neon and argon after passage through thin foils was conducted at the variable energy cyclotron at Texas A&M University. A grazing incidence ...
-
(2012-07-16)Recent hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico (e.g., Ivan, Dennis, Katrina, Rita and Ike) were observed to develop wave conditions that were near or exceeded the predicted 100-year conditions. As a result, many offshore facilities, ...
-
(2017-12-13)This dissertation presents an experimental investigation of three different scenarios on the interaction between extreme waves and offshore/coastal structures: (1) plunging breaking wave impingement on a tension-leg platform ...
-
(2009-06-02)This investigates the velocity fields of a plunging breaking wave impinging on a structure through measurements in a two-dimensional wave tank. As the wave breaks and overtops the structure, so-called green water is ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1984)Not available
-
(Texas A&M University, 1971)Not available
-
(2019-11-19)This study was designed to understand the seismic interpretation workflows employed by graduate level geoscientists, and to identify behaviors and practices consistent with higher levels of expertise, through the use of ...
-
(2016-04-29)Predictive modeling of human visual search behavior and the underlying metacognitive processes is now possible thanks to significant advances in bio-sensing device technology and machine intelligence. Eye tracking bio-sensors, ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)A histological study of the eyestalk of the freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, was conducted to characterize its neurosecretory elements. Neurosecretory cell groupings (X-organs) were associated with each of the ...
