Development of a bridge fault extractor tool
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Bridge fault extractors are tools that analyze chip layouts and produce a realistic list of
bridging faults within that chip. FedEx, previously developed at Texas A&M University,
extracts all two-node intralayer bridges ...
Leakage Prediction of Labyrinth Seals Having Advanced Cavity Shapes
(2011-02-22)
Labyrinth seals are widely used in various turbo machines including turbines, compressors and pumps. Their purpose is to prevent the backflow of the working fluid. This backflow is due to the leakage of the seal. This loss ...
Economic evaluation of smart well technology
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The demand of oil and gas resources is high and the forecasts show a trend for higher
requirements in the future. More unconventional resource exploitation along with an
increase in the total recovery in current producing ...
A numerical sensitivity analysis of streamline simulation
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Nowadays, field development strategy has become increasingly dependent on the
results of reservoir simulation models. Reservoir studies demand fast and efficient results
to make investment decisions that require a ...
Dynamics of water use and responses to herbivory in the invasive reed, Arundo donax (L.)
(2010-07-14)
The first objective of this study was to investigate the role of an invasive grass
species, Arundo donax (L.), on the hydrologic cycle. At a site on the Rio Grande in
South Texas, we measured the gas exchange of carbon ...
Evaluation of heterosis and heterosis retention in Bos taurus-Bos indicus crossbred cattle for reproductive and maternal traits in cows
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
Reproductive, maternal and weight traits were analyzed for Angus (A), Brahman
(B), Hereford (H), and Nellore (N) straightbred cows; F1 NA; 3/8N 5/8A cows; and four
breed composite cows (BANH) at the McGregor Research Station ...
Wireless, automated monitoring for potential landslide hazards
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
This thesis describes research efforts toward the development of a wireless sensor
node, which can be employed in durable and expandable wireless sensor networks for
remote monitoring of soil conditions in areas conducive ...
Analysis of Improved Fenestration for Code-Compliant Residential Buildings in Hot and Humid Climates
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
This thesis presents an analysis of energy efficient residential windows in hot and humid climates.
To accomplish this analysis, the use of accurate simulation tools such as DOE-2.1e is required, which
incorporates the ...
A microsimulation analysis of highway intersections near highway-railroad grade crossings
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The purpose of this thesis was to perform microsimulation analyses on intersections near Highway-Railroad Grade Crossings (HRGCs) to determine if controlling mean train speed and train speed variability would improve safety ...
Creating a Systems Engineering Approach for the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
(2010-07-14)
The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) establishes the basic principles for the design, selection, installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of traffic control devices (TCDs). The MUTCD indicates ...
