Recording and Replaying User Intentions in Coordinated Multiple View Visualizations
(2016-08-12)
Visualization tools help people gain insights into data. Analysts often want to revisit and review previously visited visualization states to make sense of their previous observations. Browsing a history of visualization ...
A LOW-FREQUENCY ASYMPTOTIC FORMULATION TO ESTIMATE HYDRAULIC FRACTURE PROPERTIES FROM PRESSURE DATA
(2016-12-16)
The key drivers of success in unconventional oil and gas recovery, specifically in shale plays, is the rapid growth in hydraulic fracturing and horizontal well technology. With these completion methods, wells contact ...
Impact of Photooxidation and Biodegradation on the Fate of the Oil Spilled During the Deepwater Horizon Incident: The Advanced Stages of Weathering
(2016-12)
The major biogeochemical forces influencing the environmental fate of spilled oil have been intensively investigated for many decades. The sinking and burying of spilled residual oil to form large mats that subsequently ...
SURFACE MODIFICATION OF TIO2 FOR PHOTOCATALYTIC SELECTIVE OXIDATION OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS IN BIPHASIC AND SINGLE PHASE SYSTEMS
(2016-12-16)
Living style of human kind in this era has a large dependence on energy and petroleum based products. As the population grows; the world’s fossil fuels, minerals, and natural resources are being depleted. Currently, as ...
A Litmus Test for the Pattern-Suppression Model
(2016)
The current set of experiments were designed to test the pattern-suppression model, which is a component of the suppression theory of forgetting. Experiment 1 tested the pattern-facilitation hypothesis, a hypothesis derived ...
Investigation of the Effects of End Region Deterioration in Precast, Prestressed Concrete Bridge Girders
(2016)
An important factor in life expectancy of concrete bridges is the effect of corrosion of reinforcing steel on concrete and appurtenant embedded materials. New bridges, though continuously exposed to the elements, are ...
More Than a Key: An Analysis of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 8, Op. 65
(2016-05-13)
This thesis offers an analysis of the fifth movement Dmitri Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 8, Op. 65. Although the work has been discussed in relation to Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5, Op. 67, no thorough analysis of the work ...
A comparison of microphysical parameterization sensitivities in three comma-head snow events and evaluation of scheme solutions with PIREPs
(2013)
Numerical model experiments are conducted to assess how aircraft icing forecasts are affected by the choice of microphysical parameterization, with respect to the presence of supercooled liquid water (SLW). Select winter ...
DIAMOND AND PARYLENE COMPOSITE BONDING: A POWERFUL METHOD FOR ELECTRONIC THIN FILM DEVICE FABRICATION
(2016-05-13)
A new and powerful method for electronic device fabrication is presented. A diamond and parylene composite thin film layer bonding process is described. Two sizes of diamond particles, nominally 0~0.5µm and 0~2µm were used ...
PERFORMANCE PREDICTION FOR DEEPWATER GULF OF MEXICO USING DATA MINING
(2016-08-05)
The estimation of recovery factor is important in every stage of hydrocarbon development, and multiple traditional techniques are available for engineering application for particular fields. However, the estimated recovery ...
