The effect of fractures, faults, and sheared shale zones on the hydrology of Bear Creek Burial Grounds A-South, Oak Ridge, Tennessee
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Previous hydrologic models of flow in Bear Creek Valley have presented lateral flow as occurring through the Nolichucky Shale in parallel to strike fractures within thin carbonate beds; the effects of faults were not ...
The U.S. Army and the lessons of history
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The United States Army values history as a practical tool. This organizational belief was no more apparent than during its preparation, execution, and assessment of World War I. After the Great War, the Army's leadership ...
Comparison between third and second generation ocean wave models
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The objective of this study is to assess the relative performance of a second generation (2G) model, WISWAVE (Hubertz 1992), and a third generation (3G) model, WAM (WAMDI 1988), in deep water. High-quality wind fields, ...
Condition assessment methodologies for maintenance and repair decisions
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Structures like embankment dams gradually deteriorate with time. For safety reasons, among others, those structures have to be maintained. However, the institutions responsible for those structures, like the Corps of ...
The Araucanian in Chilean thought and culture, 1810-1997
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
The object of this thesis is to determine the nature of perceptions of the Araucanian (Mapuche) Indians in Chilean literature, historiography, education politics, and New Song, a form of social protest music that emerged ...
Digital redaction
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Archivists are faced with the challenge of ensuring access, preservation, security and storage of a rapidly growing quantity of records. The life span of records may be reduced by continuous and frequent manipulation, yet ...
Rapid simulation of multiphase flow in heterogeneous reservoirs using 3D streamlines
(1997)
Geostatistical techniques generate fine-scale reservoir description that integrates data from cores, logs, and seismic traces. However, predicting dynamic behavior of fluid flow through multiple fine-scale realizations has ...
Modeling laminates using a layerwise finite element with enhanced strains for interlaminar stress recovery and delamination characteristics
(1997)
A layerwise finite element with enhanced strains is developed for the analysis of laminates with special emphasis on the recovery of interlaminar stresses and the study of delamination characteristics. A laminate interface, ...
An Improved Multipyranometer Array for the Measurement of Direct and Diffuse Solar Radiation
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
This thesis describes the development of an improved multipyranometer array (NDA) for the continuous remote measurement of direct and diff-use solar radiation. The NWA described in this thesis is an improvement over ...
