Thermodynamic and mechanical properties of EPON 862 with curing agent DETDA by molecular simulation
(2009-05-15)
Fully atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were used to predict the properties
of EPON 862 cross-linked with curing agent DETDA, a potentially useful epoxy resin for
future applications of nanocomposites. The ...
Probability of economic success for Netherlands dairy farmers moving operations to the United States
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Dairy producers in the Netherlands are struggling to stay in business due to
increased environmental legislation, population density, intensity of farming systems,
costs of production and quota restrictions. One option ...
Consequence analysis of aqueous ammonia spills using an improved liquid pool evaporation model
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Source term modeling is the key feature in predicting the consequences of releases from
hazardous fluids. Aqueous ammonia serves the purpose of a reducing medium and is
replacing anhydrous ammonia in most of the Selective ...
Molecular and in vitro growth comparisons of Encephalitozoon hellem isolates from human and bird hosts
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Molecular and in vitro comparisons were performed using two isolates of Encephalitozoon hellem, one from an avian host and one from a human host, and one isolate of Encephalitozoon cuniculi from a rabbit. The molecular ...
Low cost fault detection system for railcars and tracks
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
A "low cost fault detection system" that identifies wheel flats and defective tracks is explored here. This is achieved with the conjunction of sensors, microcontrollers and Radio Frequency (RF) transceivers.
The objective ...
Analysis of beacon triangulation in random graphs
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Our research focusses on the problem of finding nearby peers in the Internet.
We focus on one particular approach, Beacon Triangulation that is widely used to
solve the peer-finding problem. Beacon Triangulation is based ...
New inflow performance relationships for gas condensate reservoirs
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
In this work we propose two new Vogel-type Inflow Performance Relations (or IPR) correlations for gas-condensate reservoir systems. One correlation predicts dry gas production the other predicts condensate (liquid) ...
A multi-dimensional scale for repositioning public park and recreation services
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
The goal of this study was to develop an instrument to assist public park and recreation agencies in successfully repositioning their offerings in order to garner increased allocations of tax dollars. To achieve this, ...
Methods for reduced platen compression (RPC) test specimen cutting locations using micro-CT and planar radiographs
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This study looks at improving reduced platen compression (RPC) specimen preparation procedures by developing a better method for locating the ideal RPC specimen on each bone. These improvements are aimed at decreasing the ...
Seismic vulnerability of older reinforced concrete frame structures in Mid-America
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This research quantifies the seismic vulnerability of older reinforced concrete frame structures located in Mid-America. After designing a representative three-story gravity load designed reinforced concrete frame structure, ...
