Analytical and Experimental Study of Annular Two-Phase Flow Friction Pressure Drop Under Microgravity
(2011-02-22)
Two-phase liquid-gas flow has a wide variety of applications in space, including active thermal control systems, high-power communications satellites, heat pumps and space nuclear reactors. Two-phase systems have many ...
Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium Risk Assessment during the Production of Marinated Beef Inside Skirts and Tri-tip Roasts
(2010-10-12)
This study was conducted to determine the survival of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium in marinade that was used to vacuum tumble beef inside skirts and beef tri-tip roasts. The depth of penetration of ...
Risk assessment of runoff on a range watershed in Brazos County, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
A drip type rainfall simulator and an existing watershed study were used to assess relationships between runoff, infiltration, erosion and associated risk thresholds on a range watershed in Brazos County, Texas. The focus ...
Interventions for ensuring food safety in mangoes during phytosanitary treatments
(2009-05-15)
Increased consumption combined with increasing risk to foodborne illnesses
makes it necessary to identify potential sources of contamination in the food chain and
apply intervention processes that prevent/minimize the risk ...
Analysis of power generation processes using petcoke
(2009-05-15)
Petroleum coke or petcoke, a refinery byproduct, has generally been considered as an
unusable byproduct because of its high sulfur content. However energy industries now
view petcoke as a potential feedstock for power ...

(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
The Department of Energy (DOE) Nuclear Energy Research Initiative (NERI)
Direct Energy Conversion project has identified the fission fragment magnetic collimator
reactor (FFMCR) as a promising direct fission fragment ...
An application of predictive vegetation mapping to mountain vegetation in Sweden
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
Predictive vegetation mapping was employed to predict the distribution of vegetation
communities and physiognomies in the portion of the Scandinavian mountains in
Sweden. This was done to address three main research ...
The effects of cycle-to-cycle variations on nitric oxide (NO) emissions for a spark-ignition engine: Numerical results
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The objectives of this study were to 1) determine the effects of cycle-to-cycle variations (ccv) on nitric oxide (NO) emissions, and 2) determine if the consideration of ccv affects the average NO emission as compared to ...
Multi-Scale Indentation Hardness Testing; A Correlation and Model
(2010-01-20)
This thesis presents the research results of a correlation and model based on nano
and macroindentation hardness measurements. The materials used to develop and test
the correlation include bulk tantalum and O1 tool steel. ...
