A placement model for matrix acidizing of vertically extensive, multilayer gas reservoirs
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Design of matrix acidizing treatments of carbonate formation is still a challenge
although extensive research has been done on it. It is necessary to estimate acid
distribution along the wellbore. This estimation is very ...
Geoarchaeological investigation of natural formation processes to evaluate context of the clovis component at the Gault site (41BL323), Bell County, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Texas A&M University completed excavations at the Gault site (41BL323) in
Bell County, Texas, in the spring season of 2000. Located at the head of Buttermilk
Creek, past inhabitants have enjoyed perennial springs and a ...
Drought over the past century in Texas and New Mexico: reducing inhomogeneities in long-term climate records via statistical methods to study drought
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
This research looks at the past century of Texas and New Mexico climate in order
to create datasets sufficient for documenting climatic variations. Inhomogeneities in
climate records are defined as variations in climatic ...
An experimental investigation of the countercurrent flow limitation
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
A new correlation for the prediction of the Countercurrent Flow Limitation (CCFL)
in a large diameter tube with a falling water lm is proposed. Dierent from previous
correlations, it predicts the onset of
ooding by ...
Why tropes cannot be metaphysically simple
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
A popular concept in contemporary metaphysics is that of metaphysical
simplicity - the idea that an existent can have no parts. One reason for this is that the
notion of a simple is crucial to discussions of the composition ...
Developing luminescent nanoprobes for labeling focal adhesion complex proteins and performing combined AFM-TIRF imaging of these conjugates
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Recent progress in the field of semiconductor nanocrystals or Quantum Dots (QDs)
has seen them find wider acceptance as a tool in biomedical research labs. As produced,
high quality QDs synthesized by high temperature ...
The investigation of spices by use of instrumental neutron activation analysis
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
The spices consumed in the U.S. diet contain many elements other than the pure spice that many assume they eat. In particular, most of these spices contain radionuclides that are absorbed from the ground soil and water ...
Fuel cells as a backup energy source for high availability network servers
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
This thesis proposes an uninterruptible power supply, UPS for high availability
servers with fuel cells as its back up energy source. The system comprises a DC to DC
converter designed to accommodate the fuel cellâ s wide ...
The absurd and the comic
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
In my thesis, I propose a theory that posits a connection between our absurd
existential situation and our comic tendencies. I work within a framework of
existentialist assumptions, the most important of which being the ...
Cyanide-degrading enzymes for bioremediation
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Cyanide-containing waste is an increasingly prevalent problem in today's
society. There are many applications that utilize cyanide, such as gold mining and
electroplating, and these processes produce cyanide waste with ...
