An historical review of Kolb's formulation of experiential learning theory

Creator:: Hickcox, Leslie K. (Leslie Kay), 1951-
Abstract:: The central purposes of this study were to review the historical sources of David Kolb's formulation of experiential learning theory, and to determine the effect and application of Kolb's theory and Learning Style Inventory as reflected in the literature between 1971 and 1990. It was found that Kolb based his...

A nonlinear shallow water wave equation and its classical solutions of the cauchy problem

Creator:: Crow, John A.
Abstract:: A nonlinear wave equation is developed, modeling the evolution in time of shallow water waves over a variable topography. As the usual assumptions of a perfect fluid and an irrotational flow are not made, the resulting model equation is dissipative due to the presence of a viscous boundary layer at...

Nonlinear control of high performance aircraft

Creator:: Bean, Ronnie A.
Abstract:: This thesis presents the design of various controllers for a highly maneuverable, high performance aircraft, namely the modified F-18. The aircraft was required to perform high angle-of-attack maneuvers, for which the aircraft behaves in as a highly nonlinear system. An adaptive PID controller was used to control the aircraft through...

A comparison of drift from hooded and open-boom agricultural sprayers

Creator:: Fehringer, Ronald J.
Abstract:: A recent development in drift-control for agricultural ground sprayers is the installation of a hood (or shroud) over the boom. Hoods are designed to provide a protected zone in which droplets can be sprayed and deposited on the target with limited interference from the wind. This study compared chemical drift...

Nonlinear approach to the direction finding problem in array processing

Creator:: Ill-keun Rhee
Abstract:: In sonar or radar array processing, one of the most important objectives is to estimate the angles of incidence of distant source signals in a noisy environment. The standard eigenstructure-based method, which is known to yield high resolution spectral estimates for solving the direction finding problem, relies on the assumption...

The economics of agricultural groundwater quality : effects of spatial and temporal variability on policy design

Creator:: Fleming, Ronald A.
Abstract:: Non-point agricultural contaminants, such as nitrogen, may lower groundwater quality and thereby impose health and environmental risks. The objective of this study is to evaluate tax policies to control agricultural pollutants in a spatially heterogeneous and dynamic setting. The focus of the study is non-point source nitrate contamination of groundwater...

A topological approach to dry friction and nonlinear beams

Creator:: Senkyrik, Martin
Abstract:: Topological results are applied to boundary value problems modeling nonlinear beams and dry friction. A classical continuation theorem is used to prove existence results for nonlinear beams. Unified proofs, where possible, are given for all the physically relevant boundary conditions. Integration techniques and various integral inequalities are used to prove...

Computation of the stresses on a rigid body in exterior stokes and oseen flows

Creator:: Schuster, Markus
Abstract:: This paper is about the computation of the stresses on a rigid body from a knowledge of the far field velocities in exterior Stokes and Oseen flows. The surface of the body is assumed to be bounded and smooth, and the body is assumed to move with constant velocity. We...
