Cuyamungue Black-on-tan: Establishing Diversity in Tewa Pueblo Biscuitware to Improve Dating of the Protohistoric Period in Northern New Mexico
(2018-08-02)
Researchers know that during the Late Classic period (A.D. 1500-1598) Tewa Pueblo people living in the Lower Chama watershed started moving southeast towards the Rio Grande, a process that eventually lead to the depopulation ...
Investigation of Chemically Prestressed Concrete
(2018-05-12)
This research investigated the possibility of prestressing a concrete element by inducing expansion of the concrete paste at an early age. This behavior is being called chemically prestressed concrete, for this project, ...
A Novel Method for the Characterization of Anisotropic Materials
(2018-12-14)
This thesis details the successful conceptualization, development, and proof of concept testing of a novel system for the characterization of a material's electromagnetic properties. In particular, the proposed system was ...
Religious Jurisprudence and Islamophobia, The United States, France, and Canada
(2018-08-02)
This research aims to take a deeper look into Islamophobia, which is discussed as indiscriminate negative attitudes or behaviors directed at Muslims and Islam in the United States, France, and Canada. This research takes ...
A fuzzy logic algorithm for classifying bird and insect radar echoes at S-band
(2018-08-02)
A fuzzy logic algorithm for the separation of bird echoes from insect echoes using Next Generation Radar (NEXRAD) and considering range effects has been developed. The radar used in this study is the S-band (10 cm wavelength) ...
CHARACTERIZING THE BEHAVIOR OF CONCRETE CAST WITH TYPE K SHRINKAGE COMPENSATING CEMENT WHEN PLACED UNDER MECHANICAL RESTRAINT
(2018-05-12)
The purpose of this research was to determine whether shrinkage-compensating concrete (SCC) made with Type K cement is capable of offsetting the effects of early age drying shrinkage, specifically when the concrete is acted ...
MEASURING THE RESILIENCY OF HYBRID PROJECTS AGAINST SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS
(2018)
The construction industry has unique supply chain relationships given the fact it is project based. As a result, the collaboration in supply chain relationships face a variety of problems that affect one or more of the ...
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF PROPPED FRACTURE CONDUCTIVITY
(2018-05)
Hydraulic fractures act as conduits connecting a wellbore to nanodarcy permeability unconventional reservoirs. Proppants are responsible for enhancing the fracture conductivity and help in maintaining high production rates. ...
The Effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation and Isometric Exercise on Pain Perception Prior to and Following an Acute Bout of Exercise
(2018-05-11)
Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensory or emotional experience. The experience of acute or chronic pain has produced adverse societal implications. The use of exercise and TENS have been established for their ability to ...
Learning Assisted Decoupled Software Pipelining (LA-DSWP)
(2018-05)
In this thesis, I introduce and implement an extension to the Decoupled Software Pipelining (DSWP) algorithm proposed by Rangan et al. This new extension is named Learning Assisted Decoupled Software Pipelining (or LA-DSWP) ...
