High pressure testing of see-through labyrinth seals
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
Detailed results are presented for teeth-on-stator labyrinth seals tested under high pressure of 70 bar-a (1015 psi-a) and 52 bar-a (754 psi-a) in the centered position. The seals were tested at pressure ratios of 0.52, ...
Production of high voltage by ion bombardment
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
A beam of He+ ions was used to bombard a conductive target, allowing the target to build up a voltage. The voltage that built up on the target was measured by using a voltage divider circuit. The target was made out of ...
From hatemonger to hero: the rhetorical transformation of Malcolm X
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
Since Malcolm X first emerged onto the American political landscape in the late 1950s, he has received much attention. Identifying and comprehending the significant narratives, ideographs, and characterizations within the ...
The feds and enviros can't tell us who we are: a discourse analysis of identity resistance strategies of public lands ranchers
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
The purpose of this study was to examine how the social identities of public lands ranchers engaged in conflict with a government agency and environmental interest groups were discursively constructed and resisted within ...
Experimental study of the transition from brittle shear fractures to joints
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
Current geologic thinking is that there are two, and only two, distinct types of brittle fractures, joints and shear fractures (faults). For over half a century, it has been debated that a third type of fracture, referred ...
Radiation induced strand breakage analyzed by tunel technique
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
The objective of this research is to fully characterize the effectiveness and limits of using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated biotin-dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) technique for analysis of radiation ...
A three dimensional simulation of a thermal experiment conducted on an accelerator driven system target model concept
(Texas A&M University, 2003)
Accelerator transmutation of waste (ATW) is a new concept that would destroy actinides in spent fuel and produce electrical power. This study explores the possibility of modeling the thermo-hydraulics of this system with ...
Intern experience at Bechtel Petroleum Incorporated: an internship report
(Texas A&M University, 2013-03-13)
Design of structured vector quantizers for diversity communication systems
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
In this study we develop techniques for transmitting information over multiple channels. Improvements are made over available systems which use scalar quantization. The main contribution is in the application of a fixed ...
