What to Cut and How to Cut? Historical Lessons from Past Reductions in the Intelligence Community
(2012)
Under what conditions can the Intelligence Community cut its resources while still maintaining their effectiveness? What do past eras of reduction suggest about what to cut and how best to cut? The United States Government ...
Youth Employment in Ghana: Conditions and Determinants
(2015-06-11)
Youth employment, and its limitations, is a pertinent problem that most developing nations face. “Youth Employment in Ghana: Conditions and Determinants” is a student-led research project that summarizes and analyzes the ...
PARTICIPATORY MAPPING GIS TOOLS FOR MAKING HIDDEN PLACES VISIBLE: A CASE STUDY OF THE TEXAS FREEDOM COLONIES ATLAS
(2019-06-21)
Freedom colonies are historic black settlements established by freed black men and women after emancipation. They exist all over the United States with a high concentration in Texas. Black Texans founded more than 557 ...
Thermo Hydrodynamic (THD) Computational Analysis For Tilting Pad Thrust Bearings (TPTBs)
(2019-03-27)
The report details a thermo-hydrodynamic (THD) analysis for the static and dynamic force performance of TPTBs. The goal is to deliver a modern predictive tool for TPTBs to be further integrated into the XLTRC2 software ...
On the Static Load Performance of a Large Size, Heavily Loaded Spring Supported Thrust Bearing
(Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers, 2019-02-18)
This abstract describes a thermo-elasto-hydrodynamic (TEHD) analysis for prediction of the static load performance of a large size spring-supported thrust bearing (SSTB) operating at a mean surface speed of 20 m/s and 4 ...
Evaluating the Implementation of the National Strategy for Biosurveillance
(2015-05-20)
Biological incidents, both man-made and naturally occurring, represent a significant threat to the national security of the United States. Identifying these crises begins with the detection and reporting of essential ...
A Thermo-Elasto-Hydrodynamic (TEHD) Computational Analysis of Tilting Pad Thrust Bearings: Analytical and FE Pad Structure Models
(2019-05-08)
Work in 2018 extends an earlier (2017) single-pad, laminar flow thermohydrodynamic (THD) model, into a multiple-pad, turbulent flow thermoelastohydrodynamic (TEHD) model for the prediction of the static and dynamic force ...
THE MORPHOLOGY OF KNM-ER1805: A Reconsideration of an Enigmatic Specimen
(2009)
In the past, KNM-ER 1805 has been designated as a paratype for Homo erectus, H. ergaster, H. habilis, and H. rudolfensis. Based on its stratigraphic position within the KBS layer (~1.85mya) of the Koobi Fora Formation, ...
Effects of Pond-Harvested Zooplankton Versus Cultured Organisms as a Live Food for Larval Southern Flounder Paralichthys lethostigma.
(2022-10-27)
Across its range from the Atlantic coast through the Gulf of Mexico, the southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma) is highly sought after by many anglers. With the combination of fishing pressure and an increase in ...
