Channel detection on two-dimensional magnetic recording
(2013)
Two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) coupled with shingled-magnetic recording (SMR) is one of next generation techniques for increasing the hard disk drive (HDD) capacity up to 10 Tbit/in2 in order to meet the growing ...
AN EXAMINATION OF MULTIPLE OPTIMIZATION APPROACHES TO THE SCHEDULING OF MULTI-PERIOD MIXED-BTU NATURAL GAS PRODUCTS
(2013)
As worldwide production and consumption of natural gas increase, so does the importance of maximizing profit when trading this commodity in a highly competitive market. Decisions regarding the buying, storing and selling ...
Stability of Solitary Waves for Some Schrodinger-KdV Systems
(2013)
This dissertation addresses existence and stability results for a two-parameter family of solitary-wave solutions to systems in which an equation of nonlinear Schrodinger type is coupled to an equation of Korteweg-de Vries ...
Temperature Sensitivity of Soil Organic Carbon Mineralization along an Elevation Gradient in the Wuyi Mountains, China
