Characterization of the viscoelastic properties of thin-film materials using dynamic-mechanical testing techniques
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
An investigation into the use of dynamic mechanical analysis to characterize the viscoelastic properties of thin film materials is presented. The methodology was investigated using polyethylene films used on high altitude ...
Effects of assumed tow architecture on the predicted moduli and stresses in woven composites
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
This study deals with the effect of assumed tow architecture on the elastic material properties and stress distributions of plain weave woven composites. Specifically, the examination of how a cross-section is assumed to ...
Visualizing conceptual information
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
This thesis investigates computer based visualization as a tool and method for envisioning information. It involves the collaborative creation and evaluation of a visualization project which is based upon the conceptual ...

Using functional representation in the reducing ATPG search
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Major advances in VLSI technology over the past ten years has made the problem of fault detection for circuits more difficult. As these circuits increase in size, the demand for a highly efficient Automatic Test Pattern ...
Characterization of mechanical properties of aluminum 3003, 6061 and 7075 subjected to equal channel angular extrusion
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) is a novel method for introducing large amounts of simple shear into materials. In comparison with conventional deformation processes, ECAE has a number of significant advantages. The ...
Application of convolution theory for solving non-linear flow problems: gas flow systems
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
The accurate description of fluid flow through porous media using physically representative analytical or numerical models greatly improves an engineer's ability to correctly analyze and predict the flowrate and pressure ...
Marketing policy for developing countries: the case for Uganda
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
The need to diversify the agricultural sector and avoid dependence upon the export of a narrow range of crops has necessitated increasing participation in non-traditional crops trade. For an agro-based economy to expand ...
Multi-spectral glucose sensing using a polarimetric differencing technique
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Over 14 million Americans suffer from diabetes mellitus. The long-term complications of this disease include retinopathy, neuropathy, nephropathy and cardiovascular disease. To help reduce these long term complicatons a ...
The relationship of nutritional manganese to the development of postmenopausal osteopenia in rats
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Manganese is a trace element essential to the integrity of the bone. In this study, we manipulated estrogen independently, diet independently and combinations of estrogen and diet in Sprague-Dawley rats to analyze the ...
