Loose and sketchy rendering
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Loose and sketchy rendering is a non-photorealistic rendering technique which turns a sequence of input images into gestural-style drawings. Described in the thesis is an implementation of the loose and sketchy rendering ...
Depositional history of Lower Permian (Wolfcampian-Leonardian) carbonate buildups, Midland Basin, Upton County, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
A north-south oriented trend of Wolfcampian-Leonardian carbonate buildups is located in the southwestern Midland Basin, Upton County, Texas. The buildup trend is located west of the eastern faulted margin of the Central ...
Photogrammetry as a tool for estimating size and condition in the Hawaiian monk seal (Monachus schauinslandi), the harbor seal (Phoca vitulina), and the northern elephant seal (Mirounga anguistirosis)
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
A photographic technique was developed to indirectly estimate mass and body condition of the endangered Hawaiian monk seal (Monachus schauinslandi). This project differs from other photogrammetric studies because subjects ...
Characterization of the flbC developmental locus and a screen for loss-of-function flbC suppressors in Aspergillus nidulans
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Colony development by Aspergillus nidulans temporally and spatially controlled to produce asexual fruiting structures known as conidiophores approximately 18 hours after germination of the conidiospores. Mutations that ...
The determination of phase relations in the CH₄-H₂O-NaCl system at 2 and 5 kbars, 300 to 600° C using synthetic fluid inclusions
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Fluid inclusions were synthesized, using quartz and fluorite as host minerals, to determine the phase relations of the CH₄-H₂O-NaCl system at pressures of 2 and 5 kbars and temperatures of 300, 400, 500, and 600°C . Known ...
Generation and analysis of multi-directional waves
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Real sea states cannot be represented adequately by a single sine wave. Indeed, wind-generated waves in the ocean have obviously different amplitudes and frequencies, but also come from different directions. Consequently, ...
Development and characterization of extruded/expanded products containing pork and nonmeat ingredients
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Blends of pork lean (20%), defatted soy flour (25%), high-amylose corn starch and added water were extrusion-cooked using a laboratory-scale single-screw extruder (15:1 length-to-diameter ratio, 4:1 screw compression ratio, ...
Well-test analysis of multi-phase flow from two layers communicating through the wellbore
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Conventional buildup analysis techniques are based on analytical solutions to the diffusivity equation that are subject to well-known assumptions. During actual well tests multi-phase flow in several layers with different ...
Geographic diversification strategy: an application to the California - Chile table grape market
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Agricultural producers face seasonal constraints on production that limit their ability to market fresh produce year-round. Geographic diversification from the Northern to the Southern Hemispheres offers alternative ...
Error analysis of pose measurement from sonic sensors without using speed of sound information
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Scott Burnett (1) demonstrated the feasibility of using acoustic sensors to locate an object without information about speed of sound. The algorithms of triangulation and pose measurement, which were introduced in his paper ...
