Analysis of the Buoyant Plume Above a Heated Horizontal Cylinder in a Free Convection Flow (thesis)
Years of experimentation have confirmed that the buoyant plume above a heated horizontal source sways [1-15]. The plume generally begins as a plane near the cylinder and forms a sinusoidal, oscillating wave as it rises ...
Algorithm for Detection of Spikes in the Small Intestine: Investigating the Effects of Induced Ischemia on Small Intestine Electrical Activity (thesis)
This thesis presents an algorithm for spike detection designed to analyze data from induced ischemia experiments. Algorithm design and validation are discussed in detail. Other topics addressed include: electrical activity ...
Self-Assembled Antireflective Coatings Using Silica and Titania Nanoparticles (thesis)
Antiretlective coatings have a wide range of applications, from eyeglass and camera lenses to solar panels, and from microscope lenses and optoelectronic devices to skyscraper windows. It is well known that an uncoated ...
Low-Cost Techniques for Assessing the Quality of Drinking Water from Biosand Filters (thesis)
Over 4 million people worldwide are estimated to benefit from the biosand filter (BSF), an inexpensive point-of-use (POU) water treatment technology designed to remove turbidity, bacterial contamination, and parasites. The ...
Design of a 120-foot Span Steel Truss
The form of the roof truss will be the straight chord with lower chord inclined as well as the upper one, having vertical ties and inclined struts. The span will be 120 feet; the distance between trusses 16 feet; the rise ...
Cost and Construction of Macadam Roads
This thesis with intention of making the construction and cost more comprehensable to the public at large will be divided into three parts: first, principal knowledge and facts required to undertake the work: second, ...
Reinforced Concrete Arch
Reinforced concrete has been used for only a fev years, but the law governing the combination of concrete and steel, although not absolutely fixed, is known with sufficient exactness to permit the design of nearly all ...
