(2015-12)
Small or large bone defects, can occur due to a variety of reasons: congenital disorders, infections, tumors, or traumas which can lead to significant disabilities. There is an assortment of bone grafting procedures, each ...
Wormhole Attack Detection Algorithms in Wireless Network Coding Systems
(2015-07-01)
Network coding has been shown to be an effective approach to improve the wireless system performance. However, many security issues impede its wide deployment in practice. Besides the well-studied pollution attacks, there ...
Microbial removal efficiency within bioretention filter media in laboratory and field environments
(2015-12)
This study will evaluate bioretention systems' ability to remove microbial pollutants in both the laboratory and field settings, while also providing essential background on urban stormwater, pollutants, treatment options, ...
Parallel Implementation of a Forecasting Algorithm
(2015-12-01)
This thesis presents the implementation of a time series forecasting method in a High-Performance Computing (HPC) environment. This time series forecasting method integrates concordances and genetic programming (GP). The ...
Mechanism for Detecting Napl in Groundwater with Resistivity
(2015-07-01)
The detection of low concentrations of non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) in freshwater environments by electrical resistivity imaging (ERI) has been clearly demonstrated in field conditions, but the mechanism that generates ...
Design and analysis of feedback and feedforward control systems for web tension in roll-to-roll manufacturing
(2015-05)
In Roll-to-Roll (R2R) manufacturing, efficient transport of flexible materials (webs) on rollers requires simultaneous control of web speed and tension. Webs experience disturbing forces during transport due to nonideal ...
Proposed Updates for Ap-42 Cotton Gin Emission Factors
(Oklahoma State University, 2015-05-01)
A cotton ginning industry-supported project (National Study) was initiated in 2008 and completed in 2013 to collect additional particulate matter (PM) data for EPA's AP-42. PM stack emissions were collected using three ...
