Optical And Physical Properties Of Ceramic Crystal Laser Materials, Jed Simmons

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Historically ceramic crystal laser material has had disadvantages compared to single crystal laser material. However, progress has been made in the last decade and a half to overcome the disadvantages associated with ceramic crystal. Today, because of the promise of ceramic crystal as a high power laser material, investigation into its properties, both physical and optical, is warranted and important. Thermal expansion was measured in this thesis for Nd:YAG (yttrium aluminum garnet) ceramic crystal using an interferometric method. The interferometer employed a spatially filtered HeNe at 633 nm wavelength. Thermal expansion coefficients measured for the ceramic crystal samples were near …

Resource-Constraint And Scalable Data Distribution Management For High Level Architecture, Pankaj Gupta

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In this dissertation, we present an efficient algorithm, called P-Pruning algorithm, for data distribution management problem in High Level Architecture. High Level Architecture (HLA) presents a framework for modeling and simulation within the Department of Defense (DoD) and forms the basis of IEEE 1516 standard. The goal of this architecture is to interoperate multiple simulations and facilitate the reuse of simulation components. Data Distribution Management (DDM) is one of the six components in HLA that is responsible for limiting and controlling the data exchanged in a simulation and reducing the processing requirements of federates. DDM is also an important problem …

Image-Space Approach To Real-Time Realistic Rendering, Musawir Shah

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

One of the main goals of computer graphics is the fast synthesis of photorealistic image of virtual 3D scenes. The work presented in this thesis addresses this goal of speed and realism. In real-time realistic rendering, we encounter certain problems that are difficult to solve in the traditional 3-dimensional geometric space. We show that using an image-space approach can provide effective solutions to these problems. Unlike geometric space algorithms that operate on 3D primitives such as points, edges, and polygons, image-space algorithms operate on 2D snapshot images of the 3D geometric data. Operating in image-space effectively decouples the geometric complexity …

Medium Access Control Protocols And Routing Algorithms For Wireless Sensor Networks, Anirban Bag

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In recent years, the development of a large variety of mobile computing devices has led to wide scale deployment and use of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Wireless Sensor Networks consist of battery powered, tiny and cheap "motes", having sensing and wireless communication capabilities. Although wireless motes have limited battery power, communication and computation capabilities, the range of their application is vast. In the first part of the dissertation, we have addressed the specific application of Biomedical Sensor Networks. To solve the problem of data routing in these networks, we have proposed the Adaptive Least Temperature Routing (ALTR) algorithm …

Quantifying Soil Chemical Properties Using Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy, Robert L. Ficklin, Shane M. Foley, Robert E. Kissell Jr.

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Methodologies for determining soil chemical properties have evolved dramatically during the past century. Early geochemical analyses were conducted exclusively through the use of wet chemistry techniques that were relatively reliable but painstaking and subject to errors at various stages of analysis. Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) has emerged as a new approach for rapidly analyzing a variety of materials including soils. In this study soil samples were taken from eight study areas across the Ozark Highlands of Arkansas, and NIRS calibration models were developed to determine the accuracy of using NIRS to analyze soils compared with standard soil chemical analysis …

The Mathematical Preparation Of Secondary School Teachers, Kelly W. Edenfield

Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Georgia Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators

In the summer of 2007, a group of doctoral students at the University of Georgia gathered to discuss the mathematical preparation of secondary teachers. The group used Mathematics for High School Teachers: An Advanced Perspective by Usiskin, Peressini, Marchisotto, and Stanley (2003) as the catalyst for the discussion. Participants agreed that future teachers need opportunities to examine high school and college mathematics differently from the way they had as students, with specific emphasis on connections, representations, and history. Features of this text that were highlighted in the discussions were the attention topics with commonly held misconceptions, the historical rationales and …

Maya Eclipses: Modern Data, The Triple Tritos And The Double Tzolkin, William Earl Beck

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The Eclipse Table, on pages 51-58, of the Dresden Codex has long fascinated Maya scholars. Researchers use the mean-value method of 173.3 days to determine nodal passage that is the place where eclipses can occur. These studies rely on Oppolzer's Eclipse Canon and Schram's Moon Phase Tables to verify eclipse occurrences. The newer canons of Jean Meeus and Bao-Lin Liu use decimal accuracy. What would be the effect of modern astronomical data on the previous studies and the Maya Eclipse Table? The study utilizes a general view of eclipses that includes eclipses not visible to the Maya. Lunar eclipses are …

Physical Properties Of (Li_2o)_{0.40}(Fe_2o_3)_{0.05-X}(P_2o_5)_{0.55}: (Ag_2o)_X Glasses, K. Sambasiva Rao, N. Krishna Mohan, Nalluri Veeraiah

Turkish Journal of Physics

Li_2O-Fe_2O_3-P_2O_5 glasses containing small concentrations of Ag_2O from 0 to 2 mol% were prepared. Samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope techniques. A number of studies viz., chemical durability, dielectric studies (constant \varepsilon', loss tan \delta, a.c. conductivity \sigma_{ac} over a range of frequency and temperature), spectroscopic (infrared, optical absorption ESR spectra) and magnetic susceptibility studies of these glasses, have been carried out. The interesting variations observed in all these properties with the concentration of Ag^{+} ions have been analyzed in the light of different oxidation states and environment of iron ions in the glass network.

Bianchi Type Vi_1 Viscous Fluid Cosmological Model In Wesson´S Theory Of Gravitation, G. S. Khadekar, G. R. Avachar

Turkish Journal of Physics

Field equations of a scale invariant theory of gravitation proposed by Wesson [1, 2] are obtained in the presence of viscous fluid with the aid of Bianchi type VI_h space-time with the time dependent gauge function (Dirac gauge). It is found that Bianchi type VI_h (h = 1) space-time with viscous fluid is feasible in this theory, whereas Bianchi type VI_h (h = -1, 0) space-times are not feasible in this theory, even in the presence of viscosity. For the feasible case, by assuming a relation connecting viscosity and metric coefficient, we have obtained a nonsingular-radiating model. We have discussed …

The Fluctuation Theory And Gravitational Galaxy Clustering, Sajad Masood, Shakeel A. Simnani, Manzoor A. Malik

Turkish Journal of Physics

The description of gravitational galaxy clustering evolving through quasi-equilibrium thermodynamics is examined on the basis of thermodynamic fluctuations and statistical mechanical ensemble techniques. Second order fluctuation moments lead to an ordinary differential equation for b(nT^{-3}), ratio of gravitational correlation energy to (twice) the kinetic energy of peculiar velocities. The general solution of the differential equation gives a functional form of b in terms of a scale invariant function nT^{-3}, in conformity with the earlier results. A method for finding analytic expression for probability distribution function f(N) of gravitational clustering in a expanding universe is also developed on the basis of …

Optical Properties And Structural Characterizations Of Sb_2s_3 Thin Films Deposited By Chemical Bath Deposition Technique, F. I. Ezema, A. B. C. Ekwealor, P. U. Asogwa, P. E. Ugwuoke, C. Chigbo, R. U. Osuji

Turkish Journal of Physics

Thin films of Sb_2S_3 were deposited on glass substrates at 300 K by chemical bath deposition (CBD) technique and annealed at various temperatures. The absorption coefficient \alpha was determined using the absorbance and transmission measurements from a Unico UV-2102 PC spectrophotometer, at normal incidence of light in the wavelength range 200--1000 nm, and the structural characterization were done using XRD and photomicrograph. The films have high absorption, greater than 90%, in the UV region but with moderate transmittance of greater than 50% for as-deposited, and poor transmittance of less than 45% for the annealed throughout the entire spectrum. Plots of …

A Single Junction Barrier Model For Varistors, Mustapha Tioursi, Abdallah Chaouch

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper, we propose a simplified model that explains the experimental behaviour of the single junction barrier height in varistors. The equation obtained for the barrier height variation versus voltage contains all parameters that characterize the grain boundary and has no adjustable parameters. It allows us to describe the equilibrium state for each voltage level. From this model, it is concluded that the threshold voltage and the nonlinearity coefficient for a single junction barrier are strongly related to the unoccupied traps level at zero bias, when the barrier height at zero bias and the leakage current are related to …

Magnetic Levitation Of A Small Magnetic Ring Above Cylindrical Superconductor Sample In The Meissner State, H. M. Al-Khateeb, F. Y. Alzoubi, M. K. Alqadi, N. Y. Ayoub

Turkish Journal of Physics

The levitation force between a cylindrical superconductor in the Meissner state and a small magnetic ring was calculated using the dipole-dipole interaction model under the assumption that the magnetic ring is small compared with the physical dimensions of the system. We obtained analytical expressions for the levitation forces as a function of the geometrical parameters of the ring and the superconductor sample as well as the height of magnetic ring. We analyzed the levitation force in two configurations of the magnetic moment of the small ring with respect to the surface of the superconductor: one horizontal in which the magnetic …

Nature, Provenance And Relationships Of Early Miocene Palaeovalley Fills, Northern Adana Basin, Turkey: Their Significance For Sediment-Bypassing On A Carbonate Shelf, A. Sami̇ Derman, Kemal Gürbüz

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

The Gildirli Formation is the oldest Neogene rock unit in the Adana Basin and was formed prior to the regionally extensive Early Miocene marine transgression. These coarse clastic red-beds provide important evidence about the causes and early phases of filling in this large trough, because the Gildirli Formation sediments fill an irregular palaeotopography carved out of Palaeozoic and Mesozoic basement rocks. Detailed study of the Gildirli Formation reveals the existence of at least two alluvial fans supplied from different source areas. A northeastern fan, exposed around Gildirli Village, was fed by streams draining an area of ophiolitic mélange, Mesozoic and …

Repurposing A Roomba: Evaluating And Training Behavior In A Simple Agent, Donald Samuel Abbott-Mccune

Theses and Dissertations

Recent attempts to reprogram a Roomba to be used as a simple agent have led to interesting behavior. Observation has shown that the behavior of the Roomba is not only dependent on the precepts of the Roomba, but also relies heavily on the uncontrollable environmental conditions that the Roomba is placed in. Ultimately this makes the Roomba a great platform to test and teach aspects of artificial intelligence. This paper will show how most of the tested environmental conditions are mitigated by a learning agent that will adjust behavior dependent on the precepts that are received.
