Methodology to quantify leaks in aerosol sampling system components
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Filter holders and continuous air monitors (CAMs) are used extensively in the nuclear industry. It is important to minimize leakage in these devices and in recognition of this consideration, a limit on leakage for sampling ...
Resolution independent curved seams in clothing animation using a regular particle grid
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
We present a method for representing seams in clothing animation, and its application
in simulation level of detail. Specifically we consider cloth represented as a regular
grid of particles connected by spring-dampers, ...
Scale estimation by a robot in an urban search and rescue environment
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) involves having to enter and explore partially collapsed buildings in search for victims trapped by the collapse. There are many hazards in doing this, because of the possibility of additional ...
Satellite relative motion propagation and control in the presence of J2 perturbations
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Formation flying is a new satellite mission concept that is concerned with clusters of satellites in neighboring orbits cooperating to perform a specific task. The tasks may be Earth observation or space-based interferometry ...
Endohelminths from six rare species of turtles (Bataguridae) from Southeast Asia confiscated by international authorities in Hong Kong, China
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Specimens of 6 species of threatened, vulnerable, and endangered turtles (Cuora amboinensis, Cyclemys dentata, Heosemys grandis, Orlitia borneensis, Pyxidea mouhotii, and Siebenrockiella crassicollis) belonging to family ...
Examining the relationship between perfectionism, self-esteem, body satisfaction, and bulimic behavior
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
A variety of risk factors for bulimia nervosa have been proposed including both environmental factors (e.g., family environment) and personal characteristics (e.g., body dissatisfaction, self-esteem, and perfectionism). ...
Examining the MWEP: further validation of the multidimensional work ethic profile
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This research expands on previous work and provides further validation of the Multidimensional Work Ethic Profile (MWEP) by exploring the relationships among the MWEP dimensions and other common work-related attitude ...
Carbon foam characterization: sandwich flexure, tensile and shear response
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
The focus of this research is characterizing a new material system composed of carbon and graphite foams, which has potential in a wide variety of applications encompassing aerospace, military, offshore, power production ...
Capacity estimation and code design principles for continuous phase modulation (CPM)
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Continuous Phase Modulation is a popular digital modulation scheme for systems which have tight spectral efficiency and Peak-to-Average ratio (PAR) constraints. In this thesis we propose a method of estimating the capacity ...
A CMOS 500MHz continuous-time fourth order 0.05degree equiripple linear phase filter with automatic tuning
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
The growing demand of portable electronic equipment and system-on-a-chip has been pushing the industry to design circuits with very low power supply voltage and low power consumption. The Hard Disk drive industry is looking ...
