A Practical Approach To The Efficient Use Of Heavy Fuel Oils In Diesel Engine Plants, Lawrence Dehniah Barchue

World Maritime University Dissertations

The use of poor quality heavy fuel oil diesel (HFO) in diesel engines has increased considerably over the last decade. This increase has been driven purely from the immediate financial benefits associated with the price of poor quality heavy fuels. The notion of ’if it burns, use it' has led to catastrophic and irreversible damages to many engine components. Compounding the former dilemma is the inadequate knowledge of some operators with respect to the qualities of HFOs and their effects on diesel engines. Secondly, some educational institutions responsible for educating these operators have not developed the appropriate courses to address …

Adaptive Stack Filtering By Lms And Perceptron Learning, Yu-Chou Huang

Theses

Stack filters are a class of sliding?window nonlinear digital filters that possess the weak superposition property(threshold decomposition) and the ordering property known as the stacking property. They have been demonstrated to be robust in suppressing noise. Two methods are introduced in this thesis to adaptively configure a stack filter. One is by employing the Least Mean Square(LMS) algorithm and the other is based on Perceptron learning.

Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods to noise suppression.

Slotted Aloha Protocol For Packet Transmission Via Satellite Link : Throughput Performance Of Continuous Transmission Packet, Solon Karashialis

Theses

The throughput performance of multi-access schemes for data traffic through a satellite channel is analyzed in this paper. Three general schemes are described: channel reservation schemes, random access schemes, and padket reservation schemes. This thesis considers only the random access schemes. Analysis and comparison between ALOHA and Slotted ALOHA are made, but the main emphasis is on satellite channel throughput. A continuous transmission protocol for Slotted ALOHA is suggested in which each ground earth station repeats the transmission of each packet in a number of random repetition slots. The channel is idle when no ground station (GS) is transmitting on …

Annual Report: 1990, N/A N/A

Annual Reports

I submit herewith the annual report of the Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station, School of Agriculture and Land Resources Management, University of Alaska Fairbanks, for the period ending December 31,1990. This is done in accordance with an act of the Congress, approved March 2,1887, entitled "An act to establish Agricultural Experiment Stations, in connection with the Agricultural Colleges established in the several states under the provisions of an act approved July 2,1862, and under the acts supplementary thereto," and also of the act of the Alaska Territorial Legislature, approved March 12,1935, accepting the provisions of the act of Congress.

An Integrated Circuit X-Ray Sensing Array Based On A Cmos Flip-Flop Cell, Huan-Chung Lee

Theses

A novel X-ray sensor IC has beeli designed which counts individual photons at rates up to 5,000,000 counts per second. A two-dimensional X-ray flip-flop sensor array, consisting of an 30 x 30 matrix of CMOS flip-flop sensors integrated in one chip together with an internal clock generator and access selection circuitry is described. A flip-flop sensing cell contains cross-coupled CMOS devices, one of which is connected to a large-area reverse-biased diode. A large area diode exposed to X-ray flux triggers the flip-flop. By reading out the final stable state of the flip-flop, the absence or presence of an X-ray photon …

The Dewaterability Of Anaerobically-Digested Sludges, Hui-Ching Lee

Theses

Vacuum filtration is the most common method used for sludge dewatering. Filtering or dewatering was operated to reduce the moisture content of the sludge after anaerobic digestion treatment.

The main purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the operating conditions of anaerobic digestion system on specific resistance in sludge filtration. The anaerobic sludges used for the present study were produced from the conventional single stage system and the multiple-stage system. From the experimental results, presently obtained that it is possible to compare the advantage and disadvantage of the two different digestion systems.

In addition, the effectiveness of …

Evaluation Of Rates Constants In An Isothermal Turbular Reactor, Yu-Hsin Lin

Theses

To view upon an incompressible laminar-flow fluid in fully developed in a plug reactor, in which a layer of catalyst coated on the inside surface of this reactor. Two kinds of reaction will occur : one is bulk ( homogeneous ) reaction, i.e., the reaction of reactants themselves; another is a first-order irreversible catalyst ( heterogeneous ) reaction, i.e., the reaction of reactants and catalysis.It is apparent that two reactipn rate constants, Κ_b for the homogeneous reaction and Κ_ω for the heterogeneous reaction, will be caused because of these two reactions

One partial differential equation after working of …

How Effective Is The Union Title Vii Grievance Procedures, Yu-Wen Liu

Theses

Title VII forbids certain kinds of discrimination in employment and establishes a federal forum to enforce employee's rights. It means an employer discriminates against any individual in hiring or discharging, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

It has been a long time to use Title VII in unlawful practice employment. Therefore, in my thesis, I investigate the development of labor law, special for the development of Title VII of the Civil Right Act of 1964. Secondly, I emphasize on the individual and union that they can effectively make use of their rights under Title VII. …

Power Law Exponents For A Spreading Front And Growing Interface In An Irreversible Wetting, Evan Willett, Ras B. Pandey

Faculty Publications

Using computer simulations, the power-law behavior of the interface growth of a spreading fluid is studied in a two-dimensional lattice model. The interface width exponent ν and the dynamical exponent k for the evolution of the front are consistent with their dynamical scaling relation. The magnitude of these exponents seems to depend upon the nature of the substrate and the concentration of the carriers of the wetting fluid.

Cooperative Learning On Mathematical Problem Solving: Reflections By A Traditional Teacher And Her Students, Diana Metsisto

Critical and Creative Thinking Capstones Collection

As our society becomes more technologically complex, the educational system preparing our students to become citizens of this society must adapt to met changing demands. Mathematical literacy of the 21st century will require a different model of mathematics education than that which served in the past. This thesis argues for a model of mathematics education which includes as key components: problem solving, question posing, cooperative learning, concrete manipulatives, and teaching for thinking. This new model sets forth guidelines for a facilitative approach to the teaching of mathematics as opposed to the more traditional, authoritative model. This facilitative model is based …
