Vlsi Multiple Microcomputer Technology Applied To Real-Time Simulators, David M. Kotick

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

VLSI technology, embodied in state of the art microprocessors and microcomputers, has implied a computer system architecture that offers the possibility for extensive standardization, modularity, and performance improvements that can significantly impact and reduce the lifetime costs of real-time simulators. This report discusses one such system. Both the hardware and software aspects of the system are examined.

An Extension To The Best Numerical Integration Formula Development, Jorge Medina

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A mathematical analysis seeking an accurate measure of the worth of numerical integration techniques used for real-time digital flight simulation problems is presented. This investigation allows the subject of best integration methods to be pursued making emphasis on the choice of practical steps and the use of available mathematical techniques to illustrate and evaluate a potential root matching approach involving a selected first-order differential system. This study allows certain evaluation techniques to be developed. Notable among these are the schemes for comparing roots of sampled ideal integrators to roots of sampled approximated integrators, the development of an integration and of …

Laminar Film Condensation Heat Transfer Of Water Vapor-Air Mixture On A Vertical Flat Plate And Cylindrical Surface, Chick-Hong Ng

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This theoretical study has been undertaken in order to provide insights into the steady two-dimensional laminar film condensation heat transfer on an isothermal vertical flat wall and a cylindrical surface. Condensation is given to both the pure water vapor and water vapor-air mixture. Only the saturated state of the bulk vapor is considered.

The effects of liquid-vapor resistance, gas-solubility in the condensate, thermal diffusion and diffusion thermo are neglected. The presence of air as non-condensing gas has been fully accounted for in this study. The physical properties of the condensate liquid are taken to be those of saturated water at …

The Performance Of The 8089 Integrated I/O Processor In Iapx 86 Microcomputer Systems, Jeffrey A. Lohman

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This thesis examines the performance of the Intel 8089 integrated I/O processor through a predictive performance model for the I/O subsystem architectures available to the designer of an iAPX 86 system. The model provides system throughput estimates and is intended to be used prior to any detailed design. The derivation of the model is followed by a description of a prototype system which is used to provide actual throughput measurements. These measurements are compared with the model predictions to evaluate the model error and its utility. The model estimates are then combined with subsystem cost data to gauge the cost-effectiveness …

An Analysis Of Modal Noise In Multi-Mode Optical Fibers, Arthur R. Weeks

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

An analysis of modal noise in multimode optical fibers was performed. Both spatial and time varying modal noises were analyzed. The time varying modal noise was g.enerated in two ways: the first, by vibrating the optical fiber, the second, by varying the temperature of the optical fiber. Under controlled conditions the temperature of the optical fiber varied between 68°F to 200°F while the fiber was held stationary. The optical fiber was then vibrated while the temperature was held constant. Data indicated that the modal noise statistics agreed with the Beta distribution. The statistics of the spatial modal noise were measured …

Application Of Computer Modeling To Estimate Air Pollution Concentrations In Central Florida Research Park, Lutfallah Gari

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Two computer models, namely MOBILE2 and PAL were utilized to estimate the air pollution emissions and concentrations due to traffic to and in the Central Florida Research Park. Since the Park is under construction, there are no actual existing data. Generally accepted engineering techniques were adopted to estimate traffic flow used for the study. Sensitivity analyses were conducted on the results, and it was found that changing the number of lanes for the roads - with different volumes of traffic on each lane - does not change the results significantly . But changing the dimensions of area sources (the parking …

Design Methodology Of Very Large Scale Integration, Ankush D. Oberai

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) deals with systems complexity rather than transistor size or circuit performance. VLSI design methodology is supported by Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Design Automation (DA) tools, which help VLSI designers to implement more complex and guaranteed designs. The increasing growth in VLSI complexity dictates a hierarchical design approach and the need for hardware DA tools.

This paper discusses the generalized Design Procedure for CAD circuit design; the commercial CADs offered by CALMA and the Caesar System, supported by the Berkeley design tools. A complete design of a Content Addressable Memory (CAM) cell, using the Caesar …

Forced Convective Critical Heat Flux Modeling For Tubes And Rod Bundles, Joseph E. Dahlquist

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This thesis presents a model for predicting the forced convective critical heat flux (CHF) for water over a wide range of thermal-hydraulic conditions which might be encountered during normal and accident operations of a light water nuclear reactor. The model is primarily composed from existing steady-state CHF correlations for tubes or tube and rod bundle geometries, and encompasses the following parametric ranges:

0.3 ≤ P (MPa) ≤ 16.0

6.0 ≤ D (mm) ≤ 30.0

100.0 ≤ G (kg/m²s) ≤ 8000.0

-0.30 ≤ X ≤ 1.0

The correlations used as the foundation of this model are the

Effects On Iron And Cobalt On Methane Production From Dairy Cattle Manure, Mark E. Himes

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The effects of iron and cobalt on methanogenesis from dairy cattle manure were studied. Four-liter digestors with 3-liter working volumes were charged daily with dairy manure (4.5% W/V volatile solids) to achieve a 3-day retention time. Digestors were incubated at 37°C and pH 7.0 on a rotary shaker. Duplicate digestors were maintained under the following parameters: controls (no ions added), Co⁺⁺ at 4.958 mg/liter, Fe⁺⁺ at 20.64 mg/liter and Fe⁺⁺ and Co⁺⁺ at above stated final digestor concentrations.

Significantly higher production of biogas and methane occurred with the addition of iron (p = .05). Iron-amended digestors …

Granular Activated Carbon Pilot Plant For The Removal Of Color, Toc, And Thmfp, Jeffrey L. Herr

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

As part of an Environmental Protection Agency grant to reduce the trihalomethane concentration in the Melbourne, Florida drinking water, a granular activated carbon (GAC) plant was operated for approximately 1 year. Four GAC pilot plant systems were operated in parallel each treating a different influent. Raw water, coagulated, settled and filtered water, filtered water with ozone pretreatment, and filtered water with chlorine dioxide pretreatment were pumped through the individual systems. Influent and effluent concentrations of various pollutants were monitored regularly throughout the study. The raw water GAC system showed rapid breakthrough for color, total organic carbon (TOC) and trihalomethanes (THM's). …

An Analytical Model For Evaluating Database Update Schemes, Kathryn C. Kinsley

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A methodology is presented for evaluating the performance of database update schemes. The methodology uses the M/Hr/1 queueing model as a basis for this analysis and makes use of the history of how data is used in the database. Parameters have been introduced which can be set based on the characteristics of a specific system. These include update to retrieval ratio, average file size, overhead, block size and the expected number of items in the database. The analysis is specifically directed toward the support of derived data within the relational model. Three support methods are analyzed. These are first examined …
