This dissertation focuses on dynamic analysis of reduced dimension models of two microarray time series datasets. Underlying research achieves two main objectives; namely, (1) various dimension reduction techniques used ...

The complexity of the interaction between surface and down-hole equipment has made accurate analysis of sucker rod pumping systems difficult at best. Consequently, realistic predictions of performance are seldom, if ever, ...

Spray columns show potential for absorption applications such as CO2 capture because of the low gas phase pressure drop and resistivity to the corrosive action of amine solvents such as Monoethanolamine (MEA) due to the ...

The current study is focused on the dynamic behavior of an idealized highway bridge structure subjected to moving heavy vehicular loads using simplified representative models such as Euler beams and Kirchhoff plates. The ...

A dancer subsystem may be used as a tension measurement or as a disturbance attenuator depending on its design. The design of a dancer subsystem to accomplish a desired result requires the development of a dynamic model ...

In establishing the traditional analogies between mechanical and electrical networks, lack of preservation of topology while transitioning from a mechanical to its equivalent electrical network was rectified by so-called ...
