A simulation model of Rio Grande wild turkey dynamics in the Edwards Plateau of Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
I investigated the effect of precipitation and predator abundance on Rio Grande wild
turkey (Meleagris gallopavo; RGWT) in Texas. My results suggested that RGWT
production was strongly correlated with cumulative winter ...
Stokesian dynamic simulations and analyses of interfacial and bulk colloidal fluids
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Understanding dynamics of colloidal dispersions is important for several
applications ranging from coatings such as paints to growing colloidal crystals for
photonic bandgap materials. The research outlined in this ...
Numerical simulation of the truss spar 'Horn Mountain' using COUPLE
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
A truss spar, named as Horn Mountain, was deployed in the Gulf of Mexico in 1,650 m of water, approximately 150 km southeast of New Orleans in June 2002. Horn Mountain is operated by British Petroleum (B.P.). Extensive ...
Adequate description of heavy oil viscosities and a method to assess optimal steam cyclic periods for thermal reservoir simulation
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
A global steady increase of energy consumption coupled with the decline of conventional oil resources points to a more aggressive exploitation of heavy oil. Heavy oil is a major source of energy in this century with a ...
The impact of the removal of the Multi-Fiber Arrangement on textile and cotton trade of the United States and China
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
Textiles and apparel trade has been governed by the Multi-Fiber Arrangement
(MFA) for three decades. Trade restrictions have generated substantial welfare losses
and price wedges in exporting and importing countries through ...
Location of an agribusiness enterprise with respect to economic viability: a risk analysis
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
This study analyzes the economic and geographic effects of alternative locations
on risky investment decisions in a probabilistic framework. Historically, alternative
locations for multi-million dollar investments are often ...
