Microstructures and Rheology of a Limestone-Shale Thrust Fault
(2011-02-22)
The Copper Creek thrust fault in the southern Appalachians places Cambrian
over Ordovician sedimentary strata. The fault accommodated displacement of 15-20 km
at 100-180 °C. Along the hanging wall-footwall contact, ...
Universal Design Rules from Product Pairs and Association Rule Based Learning
(2010-07-14)
A product pair is two products with similar functionality that satisfy the same
high level need but are different by design. The goal of this research is to apply
association rule-based learning to product pairs and develop ...
Video Installation Design: Appropriation and Assemblage As Projection Surface Geometry
(2010-07-14)
This area of research focuses on the use of video projections in the context of fine art. Emphasis is placed on creating a unique video installation work that incorporates assemblage and appropriation as a means to develop ...
Measuring Morality: Moral Frameworks in Videogames
(2010-07-14)
The video game is, as we know, one of the most popular and quickly growing mediums in the United States and the world in whole. Because of its success, the video game industry has been able to use their resources to advance ...
Kojève and Levinas: Universality Without Totality
(2010-07-14)
I have structured my master's thesis in terms of an opposition between Kojeve's
existentialist, Marxist philosophical formulation of Hegel's Phenomenology and
Levinas's post-Heideggerian, anti-Hegelian phenomenology in ...
Psychrometric Testing Facility Restoration and Cooling Capacity Testing
(2010-10-12)
The Psychrometric Testing Facility at the Riverside Energy Efficiency Laboratory at Texas AandM University has not been operational for several years. The goal of this project was to restore the testing facility to a fully ...
HW/SW Codesign and Design, Evaluation of Software Framework for AcENoCs : An FPGA-Accelerated NoC Emulation Platform
(2011-02-22)
Majority of the modern day compute intensive applications are heterogeneous
in nature. To support their ever increasing computational requirements, present
day System-on-Chip (SoC) architectures have adapted multicore ...
Mineralogical and Microbial Controls on Iron Reduction in a Contaminated Aquifer-Wetland System
(2011-02-22)
Iron reduction is an important redox reaction in anaerobic environments for both biological and chemical cycling of elements such as carbon. However, the controls on the rate and extent of iron reduction are poorly understood ...
Impact of Tsunamis on Near Shore Wind Power Units
(2011-02-22)
With the number of wind power units (WPUs) on the rise worldwide, it is inevitable that some of these would be exposed to natural disasters like tsunamis and it will become a necessity to consider their effects in the ...
PSCAD/EMTDC-Based Modeling and Analysis of a Microgrid with Renewable Energy Sources
(2010-07-14)
Microgrid is a relatively new concept which has gained significant attention recently due to the increasing penetration of distributed energy sources. It brings many benefits to the traditional distribution system. Couples ...
