Rear brake calipers are a critical component of the brake system within a vehicle. Brake calipers function by clamping against the brake rotor when the brake pedal is pressed by the driver and thus results in deceleration of the vehicle. This thesis aims to design and develop custom rear brake...
Studies of the diel behavior of phytoplankton are numerous,
however, little work has been done on diel changes in neuston, the
organisms inhabiting the surface microlayer. Sampling of the
neuston and plankton of Sequim Bay, Washington was conducted on
18-19 August 1983 at four hour intervals. Neuston samples (upper 50...
A total of 57 core top samples from the Panama Basin were
used in a quantitative study of complete radiolarian thanatocoenoses
to determine whether surface oceanographic conditions are reflected
in the microplankton faunas deposited onto and buried in the sea floor.
Information obtained from this study was used to resolve...
Here, we describe and demonstrate a geographic information systems-based lithic morphometric research (GLiMR) software approach. GLiMR accurately and rapidly handles a sequence of ArcGIS procedures to extract geometric morphometric data from 2D and 3D scan files of lithic artifacts. GLiMR generates three main types of geometric properties: shape data, topographic...
