The measurement of non-linear damping in metal-matrix composites
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
This thesis is concerned with the measurement of non-linear (i.e. strain amplitude dependent) intrinsic material damping in continuous fiber reinforced metalmatrix composites. The particular MMC studied is a 4-ply, [O︢]S, ...
Analysis and interpretation of well test and production data for bounded reservoir systems
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
The overall goal of analyzing reservoir performance (rate and pressure behavior as a function of time) is to characterize or describe the reservoir in terms of average or "bulk" properties. This work focuses specifically ...
Implications of an open, extensible, and distributed hypermedia information system architecture for interprocess communication subsystem design
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
The properties of openness and extensibility have been characterized as necessary for advanced hypermedia system architectures. The hypothesis in this work was that the design of the interprocess communication subsystem ...
A model for determining the fate of hazardous constituents in waste during in-vessel composting
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
Composting is one of the techniques that has evolved as a safe disposal and predisposal alternative to the stringent regulations on hazardous waste disposal. The implementation of this technique needs careful evaluation ...
The Lelystad Karveel: reconstruction of a seventeenth-century Dutch passenger ferry
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
This study was undertaken to determine the functionality and applicability of using visualization and computer graphics in the field of nautical archaeology. A seventeenth-century Dutch sailing vessel was used as the vehicle ...
Effect of environmental exposure on the stiffness and energy loss properties of nitrile elastomers
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
Elastomers play an important role in today's society. Elastomers, in many applications, are exposed to elevated temperatures and environments that can alter material properties. All to often the elastomer itself may be ...

Purification and characterization of a 50 kDa glycoprotein in cercariae of Schistosoma mansoni
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
Glycoproteins of S. mansoni were purified using concanavalin A affinity chromatography. A dominant 50 kDa glycoprotein (gp5O) was found to be unique to ConA-purified cercarial antigens (ConA-Cer), but absent in ConA-SEA ...
Speed limitations of optical switching using a piezoelectric transducer
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
Optical switching in interferometers using piezoelectric elements is investigated. Complete switching requires that the piezoelectric element induce enough mechanical motion to produce a 7r-radian phase shift in one arm ...
Occurrence, movements, and behavior of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in association with the shrimp fishery in Galveston Bay, Texas
