This dissertation addresses the problem of generating feasible assembly sequences for a mechanical product from a description of it in a fundamentally new way. An operation is a motion to bring together two subassemblies ...

This thesis addresses the problem of classifying both analog and digital modulation signals using different kinds of classifiers. The classification of modulation signals has both civilian and military applications. A total ...

The primary goal of this work was to initiate the use of BaF2 arrays for detection of high energy photon emission from nuclear reactions. A beam from the Texas A&M University K-500 Superconducting Cyclotron, and a variety ...

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are currently receiving much interest in the materials community. These materials may be engineered to specific design needs by varying the reinforcement material and morphology. The primary ...

Optical waveguide devices allow the "capture" of an optical signal and its manipulation to make it modulate, change its path, switch on and off and perform many other functions. One of the desirable parameters for a good ...
