Application of linear quadratic control in reduction of aerodynamic forces on aircraft

Creator:: Wei, Shou Yuan
Abstract:: A problem found in high speed transport aircraft is excessive tail loading when flying at cruise speeds through turbulence. Attempts to reduce these areodynamic forces on the tail may result in unstable aircraft motions. Using a linear quadratic regulator in conjunction with a Kalman filter, the feasibility of designing an...

Model based visualization of vibrations in mechanical systems

Creator:: Jitpraphai, Thanat
Abstract:: To visualize vibrations in mechanical systems, e.g., machine tools, their movements are measured by means of suitable sensors. The signals from these sensors are processed and displayed as animated pictures on a computer screen. Accelerometers have been chosen as the most suitable sensors for this purpose. Their main advantages include...

Elastic, plastic, and total strains in human and porcine pedicle trabecular bone and PU-foam after pedicle screw insertion by utilizing functional micro-CT imaging

Creator:: Moran, Sean T.
Abstract:: Pedicle screw breakage and loosening remain as clinical complications of short segment instrumentation procedures for spinal stabilization. This study has directly visualized and measured elastic, plastic and total vertebral pedicle trabecular bone full-field strains in the regions immediately surrounding the pedicle screw during pedicle screw insertion by utilizing functional microCT...

Reliability centered prediction technique for diagnostic modeling and improvement

Creator:: Murphy, Michael D., 1965-
Abstract:: Design phase decisions based on diagnosability lead to lower system costs and, in turn, higher quality products by means of reducing maintenance time and increasing system reliability. A case for diagnosability is presented. Functions of diagnosability are expounded upon including life cycle costs, statistical analysis, and design criterion to emphasize...

Analysis of heat transfer, including axial conduction, for laminar tube flow with arbitrary circumferential wall heat flux

Creator:: Faghri, Mohammad
Abstract:: This thesis is concerned with the analysis of heat transfer in a tube with forced flow under conditions of an arbitrary variation of wall heat flux both axially and circumferentially. This total study is separated into two distinct problems which are presented separately. The first is the case of a...

Evaporator analysis for application to water-source and ice-maker heat pumps

Creator:: Aceves, Salvador M.
Abstract:: Water-source and ice-maker heat pumps share many characteristics. However, each presents different technical difficulties that have prevented them from being used more widely. In a water-source heat pump a very important consideration is to reduce water consumption, while in an ice-maker heat pump a major concern is to reduce the...

Dynamic modeling, control and linear theory of a projectile equipped with a rotating internal part

Creator:: Frost, Geoffrey W.
Abstract:: Dynamic modeling of the atmospheric flight mechanics of a projectile equipped with an uncontrolled internal rotating disk is investigated and a modified projectile linear theory is established. It is shown through modeling of this type of projectile that several coefficients of the epicyclic dynamics are altered, leading to changes in...

High Temperature Electrical Properties of Ceria-Based Ceramics for Use as Electrodes in Magnetohydrodynamic Power Generators

Creator:: Bowen, Michael S.
Abstract:: Determining the electrical properties of ceria-based materials is important for their use as electrodes in hot-wall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generators with wall temperatures greater than 1500 ̊C. The electrical conductivity of a material can be used in models for predicting the performance of generator designs. More specifically, the temperature dependent...

Micromechanics of heterogeneous materials under compressive loading

Creator:: Laird, George
Abstract:: In mining and mineral processing, compressive loading is often encountered during the comminution of ore bearing minerals and in the wear resistant materials used in the comminution circuit. A common thread joining many of the materials that are primarily used under compressive loading is the presence of a high modulus...
