Combined effects of Reynolds number, turbulence intensity and periodic unsteady wake flow conditions on boundary layer development and heat transfer of a low pressure turbine blade
(2009-05-15)
Detailed experimental investigation has been conducted to provide a detailed insight
into the heat transfer and aerodynamic behavior of a separation zone that is generated as a
result of boundary layer development along ...
Estimating forest structural characteristics with airborne lidar scanning and a near-real time profiling laser systems
(2009-05-15)
LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) directly measures canopy vertical
structures, and provides an effective remote sensing solution to accurate and spatiallyexplicit
mapping of forest characteristics, such as canopy height ...
Well Performance Analysis for Low to Ultra-low Permeability Reservoir Systems
(2010-10-12)
Unconventional reservoir systems can best be described as petroleum (oil and/or gas) accumulations
which are difficult to be characterized and produced by conventional technologies. In this work we
present the development ...
Constructive hierarchy through entitlement: inequality in lithic resource access among the ancient Maya of Blue Creek, Belize
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
This dissertation tests the theory that lithic raw materials were a strategic resource among the ancient Maya of Blue Creek, Belize that markedly influenced the development of socio-economic hierarchies at the site. Recent ...
Inspection, Assessment, and Repair of Grouted Ducts in Post-tensioned Bridge
(2011-02-22)
Segmental post-tensioned (PT) bridges are major structures that carry significant traffic.
Recent investigations of these bridges have identified voids in their ducts. and some of
these exposed strands at these void locations ...
