Development of wound-on-tension in webs wound into rolls
(2006-12)
Scope and Method of Study: The Wound-on-Tension (WOT) is the tension in the outermost layer of a winding roll. The WOT controls the stresses in the wound roll and hence, the defects that can arise due to these stresses. ...
Shear strength, creep and stability of fiber-reinforced soil slopes
(2006-05)
Fiber-reinforced soil (FRS) has been used successfully on more than 50 embankment slopes in the United States in recent years. The geosynthetic fiber reinforcement has consisted predominantly of 25 to 50 mm long polypropylene ...
On-demand security and QoS optimization in mobile ad hoc networks
(2006-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Security often comes with overhead that will impact link Quality of Service (QoS) performance. In this dissertation, we propose an on-demand security and QoS optimization architecture in mobile ...
Effects of in ovo exposure to sodium perchlorate on development, growth and reproduction of fence lizards (Sceloporus sp.)
(2006-07)
Scope and Method of Study: This research was designed to determine the effects of long term in ovo perchlorate exposure on eggs, juveniles and adult fence lizards. Reptile eggs are highly extensible and absorb environmental ...

Investigating optical atom traps for Bose-Einstein condensate
(2006-07)
Scope and Method of Study: The purpose of this research was to make a Bose Einstein condensate (BEC) of Rb87 atoms using an all optical method. Specific attention was given to replacing the traditional magnetic traps with ...
Resonant terahertz transmission of plasmonic subwavelength hole arrays
(2006-05)
Scope and Method of Study: The purpose of this study was to examine the extraordinary terahertz (THz) transmission through subwavelength hole arrays structured on metals, highly doped and photo-doped silicon. Conventional ...
