(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Angus - Bos indicus (Brahman or Nellore) reciprocal backcross embryo transfer
calves belonging to 28 full-sib families were evaluated for differences in birth weight
(BW), gestation length (GL), weaning weight (WW), ...
The use of maximum rate of dissipation criterion to model beams with internal dissipation
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This thesis deals with a systematic procedure for the derivation of exact expression for the frequency equation of composite beams undergoing forced vibration with damping. The governing differential equations of motion ...

Optimizing the efficiency of cylindrical cyclone gas/liquid separators for field applications
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Problems associated with the use of compact cylindrical cyclone gas/liquid (CCGL)
separators can be attributed to two physical phenomena: gas carry-under and liquid carryover
(LCO). Inadequate understanding of the complex ...
Optimal fault location
(2009-05-15)
Basic goal of power system is to continuously provide electrical energy to the users.
Like with any other system, failures in power system can occur. In those situations it is
critical that correct remedial actions are ...
Charecterization of inertial and pressure effects in homogeneous turbulence
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
The objective of the thesis is to characterize the linear and nonlinear aspects of inertial
and pressure effects in turbulent flows. In the first part of the study, computations of
Navier-Stokes and 3D Burgers equations ...
An analysis of casual carpool passenger behavior in Houston, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)
In the last thirty years, determined travelers have developed a new method of travel that
allows them to receive the benefits of traveling on the HOV lane without forming
