Coastal mesoscale changes on Matagorda Island
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Sediment analysis and elevational profiles were used to evaluate the morphological and sedimentary dynamics of Matagorda Island, Texas. Several geomorphic variables were found to be important for the analysis of the ...
Impact of assumption of log-normal distribution on monthly rainfall estimation from TMI
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The log-normal assumption for the distribution of the rain rates used for the estimation of monthly rain totals proposed in Wilheit et al 1991 was examined. Since the log-normal assumption was originally used for the SSM/I, ...
Revision of Neartic species in Opius (Gastrosema)(Hymenoptera:Braconidae:Opiinae)
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
A detailed analysis of intraspecific morphological variation and sexual dimorphism was conducted for seven Nearctic species in the subgenus Gastrosema Fischer. Results from the analysis are presented as a complete description ...
Comparison of crest height distributions of experimental and theoretical waves - a search for applicability of 2nd-order theory
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
This study is focussed on investigating the applicability of the 2nd-order wave theory to different sea-states. The study was conducted by analyzing the experimental wave data and comparing the data with the 2nd-order wave ...
Evaluation of Fin Staging Methods for Minimizing Coil Frost Accumulation
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Frost formation on heat pump evaporators is a source of degradation in the performance of heat pumps during heating mode operation. This research sought to determine whether staged fins on outdoor evaporators could slow ...
A very high frequency CMOS Variable Gain Amplifier
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
A fully differential CMOS Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA) consisting of an analog multiplier, current gain stages, and resistor loads is designed for very high frequency applications. The gain can be programmed from 0dB to ...
Supplementation of canine oocyte in vitro maturation medium with progesterone, somatotropin, and epidermal growth factor
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The aim of this project was to assess meiotic resumption of canine oocytes in vitro in response to medium supplemented with either progesterone (P₄), somatotropin (ST), and/or epidermal growth factor (EGF). A mono-phasic ...
"The Second American School of Arms": the Virginia Military Institute and the advent of state military education, 1835-1851
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The Virginia Military Institute, along with other Southern military colleges, is almost always historically viewed within the context of their contributions during the Civil War. VMI, and other "West Points of the ...
Development and application of a transient well index
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
In integrated reservoir studies flow simulation models are created with the goal of honoring diverse static and dynamic data types. If well test data are available, an integrated model should aim to honor these data. ...
Validation of the new mixture design and testing protocol for lime stabilization
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) has used hydrated lime for over 30 years to stabilize subgrades. In 1998 a project was initiated to assess material properties and performance derived from lime treated ...
