(2015-12-09)The investigation of fusion reactions in laser produced plasma has become of great interest since the development of ultra-short pulse lasers technique, which can enable the measurement of not well known fusion cross ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)It has always been the initiative of agricultural education to provide our American society with the educational "needs of the day" (Meyer, 1999). As our nation and state enters a new era, it is fitting for an examination ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1996)The purpose of this study was to determine how colleges of agriculture can better educate their students to prepare them for the beef industry in the 21 st century. The study used naturalistic inquiry based on the qualitative ...
-
(2011-10-21)The world of energy is changing. With rising energy costs and concerns over the supply of energy materials, more research is being conducted into alternative sources of fuel and microalgae is one of the sources being ...
-
(2009-05-15)The Salton Sea, situated in the Lower Colorado River Basin (LCRB), is under duress due to, among other things, increased water demands of cities like San Diego, California and Mexicali, Mexico. This research developed a ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)The first purpose of this study was to describe and illustrate a modification of the Delphi technique that was designed to identify future personal attributes and job competencies needed to help update requirements for ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)The primary objective of this research was an exploration of the role of future time perspective in the choice of food use patterns or the maintenance of life-long food habits of a sample of people over sixty years old. A ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)Futurist Sculpting is a collection of techniques for representing dynamic motion in a static three-dimensional model. These techniques allow digital artists to use animation as a new modeling tool. The idea of Futurist ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1997)In this thesis, I propose a fuzzy adaptive connection admission control (CAC) approach for real-time applications in ATM-Based heterogeneous networks (ABHN) where ATM serves as a backbone that connects different LANs by ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1993)This research is in two parts: I. Develop a generic tool to perform fuzzy inference on a wide class of systems.Thisis done using Prolog and C. 2.Develop a hierarchical control scheme using this fuzzy inference mechanism ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1993)One of the ultimate goals in the field of robotics is to create autonomous robots. Such robots would be able to accept high level input commands from either a human operator or a centralized control system and perform ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1994)Digital image processing technique and fuzzy logic approach are used to identify forest areas infested with Southern Pine Beetle, SPB, using normal color airborne imageries in this research. This research will be used as ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1993)This thesis addresses the task of producing a generic control algorithm for Cartesian motion of manipulators. The algorithm employs a self organizing fuzzy logic estimator to produce joint space changes given Cartesian ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2002)Fault location in distribution systems is a challenging task because of the lack of homogeneity in the system and due to uncertainity in the data used for estimating the faulted sections. Fuzzy logic has widely been applied ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1995)This thesis presents a feasibility study for the use of fuzzy logic control to solve the autonomous vehicle following problem. After developing the original vehicle following system, the applicability of fuzzy logic to the ...
-
(2011-02-22)In most range-based localization methods, inferring distance from radio signal strength using mathematical modeling becomes increasingly unreliable and complicated in indoor and extreme environments, due to effects such ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This dissertation introduces advanced artificial intelligence based algorithm for detecting and classifying faults on the power system transmission line. The proposed algorithm is aimed at substituting classical relays ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)This dissertation discusses motivations and methods for translation of knowledge bases (KBs) between different expert system building tools (ESBTs). A Knowledge Canonical Form (KCF) is presented as a generic knowledge ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)In this research, fuzzy processing is applied to the adaptive Kalman filter. The filter gain coefficients are adapted over a 50 dB range of unknown signal/noise dynamics,, using fuzzy membership functions. Specific ...
