Heat/Mass Transfer In Rotating, Smooth, High Aspect-Ratio (4:1) Coolant Channels With Curved Walls, Eashwar Sethuraman

LSU Master's Theses

The thesis presents an experimental study of heat/mass transfer coefficient in 4:1 aspect ratio smooth channels with non-uniform cross-sections. Curved leading and trailing edges are studied, for two curvatures of 9.06 m-1 (0.23 in-1) and 15.11 m-1 (0.384 in-1) and for two different curvature configurations. One configuration has curved walls with curvature corresponding to the blade profile (positive curvature on both leading and trailing walls), and the other configuration has leading and trailing walls that curve inwards into the coolant passage (negative curvature on the leading surface and positive curvature on the trailing surface). The experiments are conducted in a …


Maximizing Resource Utilization By Slicing Of Superscalar Architecture, Shruti Ravikant Patil Jan 2006

Maximizing Resource Utilization By Slicing Of Superscalar Architecture, Shruti Ravikant Patil

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

Superscalar architectural techniques increase instruction throughput from one instruction per cycle to more than one instruction per cycle. Modern processors make use of several processing resources to achieve this kind of throughput. Control units perform various functions to minimize stalls and to ensure a continuous feed of instructions to execution units. It is vital to ensure that instructions ready for execution do not encounter a bottleneck in the execution stage; This thesis work proposes a dynamic scheme to increase efficiency of execution stage by a methodology called block slicing. Implementing this concept in a wide, superscalar pipelined architecture introduces minimal …


Post-Implant Dosimetry Analysis Of Brachytherapy Patients Using Pre And Post-Implant Mri, Deana Lee Tuttle Jan 2006

Post-Implant Dosimetry Analysis Of Brachytherapy Patients Using Pre And Post-Implant Mri, Deana Lee Tuttle

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

Post-implant dosimetry analysis is a critical step in brachytherapy for identifying the quality of the implant based on seed localization in relation to the volume of the prostate. However, the accuracy of post-implant dosimetry analysis is dependent on accurate delineation of the prostate from surrounding tissue in post-implant CT images. Research has shown that adequately delineate the prostate from surrounding tissue in CT images is difficult, resulting in significant variation between the dose received by the prostate and the dose prescribed by the physician. This research compared prostate volumes delineated from pre-implant US, post-implant CT, and pre and post-implant MR …

Panel Unit Root Tests And Spatial Dependence, Badi H. Baltagi, Georges Bresson, Alain Pirotte

Center for Policy Research

This paper studies the performance of panel unit root tests when spatial effects are present that account for cross-section correlation. Monte Carlo simulations show that there can be considerable size distortions in panel unit root tests when the true specification exhibits spatial error correlation. These tests are applied to a panel data set on net real income from the 1000 largest French communes observed over the period 1985-1998.

Pedagogy Of Respect: The Inter-Generational Influence Of Black Women, Kenneth J. Fasching-Varner Jan 2006

Pedagogy Of Respect: The Inter-Generational Influence Of Black Women, Kenneth J. Fasching-Varner

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

There is a large corpus of literature that not only speaks to the nature and qualities of Black women teachers, but that further disrupts the way these educators have been historically located at the margins of 'education,' by highlighting their political and culturally relevant/responsive approaches (Ladson- Billings, 1992/1994/2000; Gay, 2000; Beauboeuf-Lafontant, 1997/1999/2002; Irvine, 1989/1990/2003; Irvine & Hill, 1990; Collins, 2000; Siddle Walker, 1996/2005; Dixson, 2002/2005; Dingus, 2003, among others). This work, that looks at the larger political movement of Black women teachers, comes at a time when researchers are beginning to better blur the traditional boundaries that defined ‘center’ and …

Multi-Context Use Of Language: Toward Effective Thinking And Planning For Curriculum, Anne D'Antonio Stinson, William Chandler, M. Virginia Epps, Melissa Frieberg

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The flexible, multi-contextual use of language is essential to integrated learning and thinking. Likewise, learning and thinking in an integrated way is essential to multi-dimensional teaching. This study examines the ways pre-service secondary teachers define their subjects. Students enrolled in a secondary reading methods course were asked to provide multiple definitions for a predetermined list of critical vocabulary terms common to multiple disciplines. We used these definitions to measure participants’ level of sophistication with regard to the multi-context use of language. Participants’ responses illuminated implications for curriculum development in secondary schools including the need for models for pre- and in-service …

Effects Of Dissolved Air On Subcooled Flow Boiling Of A Dielectric Coolant In A Microchannel Heat Sink, T. Chen, S V. Garimella Jan 2006

Effects Of Dissolved Air On Subcooled Flow Boiling Of A Dielectric Coolant In A Microchannel Heat Sink, T. Chen, S V. Garimella

CTRC Research Publications

The effects of dissolved air in the dielectric liquid FC-77 on flow boiling in a microchannel heat sink containing ten parallel channels, each 500 mircometers wide and 2.5 mm deep, were experimentally investigated. Experiments were conducted before and after degassing, at three flow rates in the range of 30–50 ml/min. The dissolved air resulted in a significant reduction in wall temperature at which bubbles were first observed in the microchannels. Analysis of the results suggests that the bubbles observed initially in the undegassed liquid were most likely air bubbles. Once the boiling process is initiated, the wall temperature continues to …

We present the results of a search for new physics in the jets plus missing transverse energy data sample collected from 368 pb(-1) of p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We compare the number of events observed in the data with a data-based estimate of the standard model backgrounds contributing to this signature. We observe no significant excess of events, and we interpret this null result in terms of lower limits on the fundamental Planck scale for a large extra dimensions scenario.

Purdue Writing Lab/Purdue OWL Research Reports

This report outlines the history of the Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL) and details the OWL Usability Project through the summer of 2006. The paper also discusses test methodologies, describes test methods, provides participant demographics, and presents findings and recommendations of the tests. The purpose of this report is to provide researchers, administrators, and pedagogues interested in usability and Writing Labs access to information on the Purdue OWL Usability Project. We hope our findings—and this open source approach to our research—will contribute positively to the corpus on usability and Writing Lab studies.
