Seismic stratigraphy and quaternary evolution of the New York Bight Inner Continental Shelf
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Approximately 5,300 km of digitally recorded high-resolution, nested, single-channel, seismic-refection data (2.46 m³ watergun, 200-500 Hz Geopulse acoustic source, and a CHIRP 2-7 kHz subbottom profiler) and coincident ...
Economic assessment of forage responses to mesquite control in the Rolling Plains of North Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Encroachment of mesquite brush in the last 100 years has caused a major problem with rangeland in Texas. Many different methods to control brush problem encroachment have been used in the last 50 years, but no conclusions ...
Characterization of solid-fluid mixtures
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
In this work we develop and investigate a mathematical model for the description of the mechanical behavior of soft, hydrated tissues with significant perfusion. We set up and derive the mathematical description and balance ...
The painting camera: an abstract rendering system with camera-control images
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The computer is a powerful creative tool, capable of creating unprecedented work and has revolutionized the way art is conceived, created, and perceived. However, using the computer as an artistic tool requires new techniques ...
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 ...
Brown is the color of many things: a collection of short stories
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The purpose of my thesis is to demonstrate a grasp of the techniques covered in Creative Writing workshops and lectures. The thesis consists of two parts-the critical introduction and the creative body. In the critical ...
A framework for assembly sequence planning for computer aided design of mechanical assemblies
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
This thesis presents a framework for interactive assembly sequence panning for mechanical assemblies. Realizing the utility of such a tool that will enable the product engineer to evaluate the assemblability of his designs ...
Effects of ultraviolet light on aerobic plate counts, Salmonella typhimurium, and Escherichia coli levels on eggshell surface
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The effects of 254nm ultraviolet light (UV) radiation on aerobic plate counts (APC), and populations of Salmonella typhimurium, and Escherichia coli on eggshells surfaces were investigated. In the first experiment, eggs ...
