Evaluation of the effects of a highway improvement project on Key deer
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Deer-vehicle collisions (DVCs) along a 5.6-km segment of United States Highway 1 (US 1) on Big Pine Key (BPK), Florida responsible for approximately 26% of endangered Florida Key deer (Odocoileus virginianus clavium) annual ...
Modeling, image processing and attitude estimation of high speed star sensors
(2009-05-15)
Attitude estimation and angular velocity estimation are the most critical components
of a spacecraft's guidance, navigation and control. Usually, an array of tightlycoupled
sensors (star trackers, gyroscopes, sun sensors, ...
The impact of school facilities on student achievement, attendance, behavior, completion rate and teacher turnover rate in selected Texas high schools
(2009-05-15)
The purpose of this study was to explore the possible relationship between school
facility conditions and school outcomes such as student academic achievement,
attendance, discipline, completion rate and teacher turnover ...
38-kHz ADCP investigation of deep scattering layers in sperm whale habitat in the northern Gulf of Mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
A hull-mounted 38-kHz phased-array acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) was used to acoustically survey the continental margin of the northern Gulf of Mexico (GOM) during 6 cruises in 2002-2003. This is the first ...
The role of transfer-appropriate processing in the effectiveness of decision-support graphics
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The current project is an examination of the effectiveness of decision-support graphics in a simulated real-world task, and of the role those graphics should play in training. It is also an attempt to apply a theoretical ...
Gas condensate damage in hydraulically fractured wells
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
This project is a research into the effect of gas condensate damage in hydraulically fractured wells. It is the result of a problem encountered in producing a low permeability formation from a well in South Texas owned by ...
The logic of regionalism: a comparative study of regionalism in Europe and Asia
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Why do some states develop deeper regionalism while others do not? Comparing European and Asian regionalism, this study provides an alternative explanation of different types of regionalism and the national variations in ...
Imbibition assisted oil recovery
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Imbibition describes the rate of mass transfer between the rock and the fractures. Therefore, understanding the imbibition process and the key parameters that control the imbibition process is crucial. Capillary imbibition ...
The significance of organic carbon and sediment surface area to the benthic biogeochemistry of the slope and deep water environments of the northern Gulf of Mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
The bioavailability of metabolizable organic matter within marine sediments is one of the more important driving mechanisms controlling benthic pelagic communities. Interactions between organic material and mineral surfaces ...
A moment in the pragmatic political style: the rhetoric of Louis D. Brandeis
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
This thesis examines the rhetoric of Louis D. Brandeis in light of pragmatism-specifically, the philosophical pragmatism of William James and John Dewey. While a number of scholars claim that pragmatism has nothing to offer ...
