Analysis of Mutual Coupling Models for Phased Array Calibration
(2022-05-13)There is a demand for more effective phased array calibration both in initial and in situ setups, including but not limited to airborne and spaceborne radars. Mutual coupling is a method of calibration which involves ... -
Analysis of Polarimetric Radar Downburst Precursors Using Automated Storm Identification and Tracking
(2023-12-15)Strong thunderstorm winds produced by downbursts pose a threat to life, property, and aviation, yet they remain challenging to predict in advance. Current operational understanding of radar-based downburst precursors ... -
Analysis of Resilience in US Stock Markets during Natural Disasters
(2016)Different studies relating to resilience have been performed on stock markets for disasters around the world. Researchers have tried to figure out if stock markets were resilient or not during a particular disaster. In ... -
Analysis of the Engineering Students' Self-Reflections Through Text Mining of Their Learning Statements
(2021-05-14)At the University of Oklahoma (OU), AME4163: Principles of Engineering Design which is based on the “Design, Build, and Test” approach and has an experiential learning structure, is a course for preparing senior undergraduate ... -
Analysis of The Financial Impacts of COVID-19 on Athletic Department Forecasting for Annual Giving and Major Gifts at NCAA Division I Universities
(2021-05-14)There currently are no studies out there looking at financial forecasting for division I NCAA athletic department, in particular studies that look at the impact of a natural disaster and or “black swan” event that disrupts ... -
Analysis of the Finite Array on the Scanning Performance of Phased Array Antennas
(2020-12-18)Modern high performance phased array antennas require large apertures to achieve both high gain and narrow beamwidth. It is not practical to manufacture such large apertures, so the full array is composed of smaller ... -
An analysis of the information content of radar detection
(2022-08-04)The availability of the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) was an unseen issue in the past, as there was sufficient spectrum access to suit the needs of its’ consumers. Today, the use of the EMS has been become integrated ... -
An Analysis of the Microphysical and Thermodynamic Properties of Elevated Convective Cells within Snowbands Associated with Winter Storms.
(2023-12-15)In-situ and remote sensing observations of snowbands were obtained by probes on a cloudpenetrating NASA P-3 and a high-altitude NASA ER-2 aircraft, to identify and characterize elevated convective cells (CCs). Observations ... -
Analysis of the Nyquist Folding Receiver (NYFR)
(2018)Increased utilization of the radio frequency spectrum motivates receivers with wide instantaneous bandwidth for applications such as signals intelligence, cognitive radio, and compliance testing. Traditional wideband ... -
Analysis of the relationships between eye tracking information and text comprehension levels in healthcare
(2017-12)Health information can be found more easily than ever through a variety of digital texts: from health forums online, informative websites, or phone apps that monitor your health. It is important that the patients are able ... -
Analysis of Tornadic Supercells Using Two Rapid-Scan, Mobile Doppler Radars
(2021-08)Mobile Doppler radar is a critical tool in studying microscale phenomena, including tornadoes, in supercell thunderstorms at close-range. However, a relative dearth of high-quality cases documenting the tornadic life cycle ... -
