Abstract:

Dynamic instrumentation and a series of ambient vibration tests were performed on a four storey strengthened R/C building within the scope of this study. Traffic load and wind load were accepted as natural dynamic loads and the vibrations were recorded by sensitive accelerometers.For that study, 12 uniaxial, 1 triaxial accelerometers and a 15 channel data logger system were used. Four sets of dynamic measurements were recorded over a period of 6 months. Recorded readings were analyzed using UPC, PC and CVA algorithms and Artemis software. The natural freqeuncies, mode shape of the tested build

Abstract:

Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) is the most common reason for chlorosis in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) and causes an average yield loss of 120 million dollars per year across 1.8 million ha in the North Central US alone. As the most effective way to avoid IDC is the use of tolerant cultivars, they are visually rated for IDC by experts; however, this method is subjective and not feasible for a larger scale. An alternate more objective image processing method can be implemented in various platforms and fields. This approach relies on a color vegetation index (CVI) that can quantify chloro

Rapid field-based assessment methods for classifying stream permanence in headwater streams are needed to accurately inform regulatory decisions regarding which streams are protected under the Clean Water Act. In North Carolina, a rapid field-based assessment method for identification of intermittent and perennial streams has been developed.

This dissertation investigated the relationship between course characteristics and student ratings of instruction at a large research intensive university.

Abstract:

Let X be a space and let S ⊂ X with a measure of set size |S| and boundary size |∂S|. Fix a set C ⊂ X called the constraining set. The constrained isoperimetric problem asks when we can find a subset S of C that maximizes the Følner ratio FR(S) = |S|/|∂S|. We consider different measures for subsets of R^2,R^3,Z^2,Z^3 and describe the properties that must be satisfied for sets S that maximize the Folner ratio. We give explicit examples.

Additionally, a 2-D scanning of a metallic structure on a THz-transparent substrate (with a total scanning area of 1 × 1 mm2) is experimentally implemented. Correlation coefficient estimation is made afterwards to quantify the reconstructed image quality.

Abstract:

In this project a theoretical study of the so called gyromagnetic ratio was done by investigating classical mechanics, Dirac theory and string theory. The gyromagnetic ratio is a constant term appearing in the coupling between angular momentum and magnetic moment for a particle. A universality in quantum field theory claiming g = 2 regardless of spin is known to exist which also agrees with the found values (g = 2) of the Dirac and string theory. The proof of the aforementioned universality in quantum field theory was sketched in the project by showing that the W-boson Lagrangian is well behav

Bentonite is a volcanic ash, which lies on both sides of the channel system and is absent within the channel.

The need for water conservation continues to increase as global freshwater resources dwindle. In response, many golf course superintendents are implementing new methods and tools to become more frugal with their water applications. For example, scheduling irrigation using time-domain reflectometer (TDR) soil moisture sensors can decrease water usage. Still, TDR measurements are time-consuming and only cover small scales, leading to many locations being unsampled. Remotely sensed data such as the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) offer the potential of estimating moisture stress acr

The central idea behind the newly developed toxicity model is the use of the Local Equivalence Ratio (LER).

Correlations for most building materials are available from small-scale fire experiments. Similar approaches to this method are also developed using the CO/CO2 and H2/H2O mole ratios. The LER methodology is further refined by an approach which divides the computational domain for the calculation of toxic gases into two parts, a control region in which the toxic gases

Abstract:

Fluvial channel geometry is controlled by the interaction of a number of geologic and hydraulic variables. The width of mixed alluvial-bedrock channels generally is a function of discharge, with variations due to local conditions. The aspect ratio (width/depth) of channels is heavily influenced by substrate size and erodibility. How channel width and aspect ratio vary as a function of other variables, such as structure, lithology, slope, large scale valley topography, and rock uplift, has not been fully quantified. The New River is ideal for examining these relationships because it shows c

Abstract:

[ES] La neurociencia es un campo que abarca muchas especialidades. El objetivo de esta tesis es subsanar algunas carencias tecnológicas que existen en los métodos actuales de experimentación animal en neurociencia. En esta tesis, se presentan seis proyectos, que tendrán como objetivo mejorar el "Principio de las tres R", el cual fue enunciado por los biólogos ingleses W. M. S. Russell y R. L. Burch, durante la experimentación animal. El comportamiento es uno de los aspectos más importantes de la vida animal. Depende de los vínculos entre los animales, sus sistemas nerviosos y sus entornos.

Abstract:

Résumé : La décomposition des litières végétales a été décrite comme étant la deuxième plus importante fonction écosystémique sur terre, après la productivité primaire. Alors que la photosynthèse fournit les apports énergétiques à la plupart des chaînes alimentaires, la décomposition recycle les nutriments, permet leur utilisation future par d’autres organismes et relargue dans l’atmosphère le carbone fixé photosynthétiquement. Dans un contexte de changement climatique, un grand intérêt est porté sur la décomposition des litières, car il s’agit, à l’échelle globale, de la plus grande source d’
