Complete CFD analysis of a Velocity XL-5 RG with flight-test verification
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
The Texas A&M Flight Research Laboratory (FRL) recently received delivery of its
newest aircraft, the Velocity XL-5 RG. The Velocity can fly faster than the other aircraft
owned by the FRL and does not have a propeller in ...
Microbial intervention strategies for Salmonella and Campylobacter reduction in commercial turkey processing
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)
One objective of the present investigation was to compare Salmonella and
Campylobacter recovery incidence from commercially processed turkeys immediately
prior to and following pre-chill and immersion chiller intervention ...
Effects of Microbial Litter Amendments on Broiler Performance, Litter Quality and Ammonia Production
(2011-02-22)
The reuse of litter in broiler production can lead to litter pathogen buildup and high levels of ammonia in broiler housing, thus resulting in poor broiler performance. This study evaluated the effects of two microbial ...
Structural damage detection using frequency response functions
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
This research investigates the performance of an existing structural damage detection method (SDIM) when only experimentally-obtained measurement information can be used to calculate the frequency response functions used ...
Tearable Cloth
(2010-01-16)
This document proposes modifications to an established cloth simulation algorithm to
allow for stretch deformation and tearing of simulated cloth in computer-generated
imagery. Previous research is presented, followed by ...
Water quality improvements in the Upper North Bosque River watershed due to phosphorous export through turfgrass sod
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
The Upper North Bosque River (UNBR) watershed is under a Total Maximum
Daily Load (TMDL) mandate to reduce Phosphorus (P) due to excess nutrients in the
watershed. To address these problems, Texas A&M University researchers ...
Precision mechatronics lab robot development
(2009-05-15)
This thesis presents the results from a modification of a previously existing research
project titled the Intelligent Pothole Repair Vehicle (IPRV). The direction of the
research in this thesis was changed toward the ...
Bayesian prediction of modulus of elasticity of self consolidated concrete
(2009-05-15)
Current models of the modulus of elasticity, E , of concrete recommended by the
American Concrete Institute (ACI) and the American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (AASHTO) are derived only for ...
Patterns of antimicrobial resistance among enteric bacteria found in multi-site group-level cohorts of humans and swine
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) phenotypes and genotypic
characteristics (Class 1 integron and AMR gene cassettes) in commensal Escherichia coli
(EC) and vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium (EF) ...
Energy-optimal schedules of real-time jobs with hard deadlines
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
In this thesis, we develop algorithms that make optimal use of frequency scaling
to schedule jobs with real??time requirements.
Dynamic voltage scaling is a technique used to reduce energy consumption in
wide variety of ...
