Conventional generators are operated at fixed speed,
and they lack the advantage of Variable Speed Generators
(VSG) i.e.a VSG system is capable to maximize the electromechanical
energy conversion process by varying the shaft
speed. This thesis deals with a VSG system which also
preserves all the functional features of a...
A contactor has been designed and constructed for experimental
studies of mass transfer with or without chemical reaction between
two fluid phases. The contactor is flexible enough to investigate a
wide range of variables affecting mass transfer coefficients. It is
easy to operate; it could be operated either as a...
This thesis discusses the hardware implementations of
certain linear and non-linear color space transforms thought
to be useful in the analysis of wood surfaces for defect
detection.
The developmental system's color image digitizer
contains 5 bits per color while the input signal contains
considerably greater resolution. This often degrades the...
The Bear Creek area is situated at the boundry between the Basin and Range Province, Deschutes Basin and Blue Mountains Province. It contains rock units representing most of the Cenozoic geologic column. The major rock units exposed are the Clarno Formation, John Day Formation, Columbia River Basalt Group, Deschutes Formation...
