Octal-Tree Spatial Sorting And Its Applications, Jeffrey L. Posdamer Jan 1982

Octal-Tree Spatial Sorting And Its Applications, Jeffrey L. Posdamer

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

An octal tree subdivision recursively divides a bounded three-dimensional volume into octanta about an internal division point. This scheme has been used to represent cellular or enumerated voxel models of solid objects. Given one or more sets of points sampled from the surface of a solid, an octal tree may be generated in which each leaf node contains m or less points. By specifying the tree traversal rule, the points are accessed in a sorted order. By defining m=3, a divide-and-conquer surface triangulation algorithm may be developed which does not require special sampling conditions (such as co-planarity) on subsets of …


A Control Program And Operating System For A Three Joint Robot Arm On An Apple Microcomputer, Eric Henry Stelzer Jan 1982

A Control Program And Operating System For A Three Joint Robot Arm On An Apple Microcomputer, Eric Henry Stelzer

Masters Theses

"A Robotics Operating and Control System for a three-joint robot arm model is presented. The general operation of the system in interfacing the robot to the operator is discussed. Kinematic equations for the robot are derived and commands available to the operator are covered in some detail. The operation of the Control System in moving the robot is explained. Finally, suggestions are made for further development of the system"--Abstract, page ii.


Aerodynamics Of Closely Coupled Wings For Varying Chords And Airfoil Planforms, Gary D. Vincent Jan 1982

Aerodynamics Of Closely Coupled Wings For Varying Chords And Airfoil Planforms, Gary D. Vincent

Masters Theses

"Aerodynamic characteristics of a dual wing aircraft were analyzed with variations in airfoil sections and chord ratios over existing equal chard ratio dual wing and monoplane aircraft designs. Two- and three-dimensional aerodynamic studies were conducted to find the wing geometry which would create the minimum cruise drag. The two-dimensional aerodynamic data was obtained from a multi-element inviscid vortex panel program coupled to a momentum integral boundary layer program to account for the aerodynamic coupling between the wings. With this data, a three-dimensional vortex lattice program calculated the three-dimensional aerodynamic data. compared to an equal chard ratio dual wing aircraft, lower …


The Influence Of Manganese Oxide On Sintering Of A Commercial Natural Magnesite., Alamar Kasan Duarte Jan 1982

The Influence Of Manganese Oxide On Sintering Of A Commercial Natural Magnesite., Alamar Kasan Duarte

Masters Theses

"Sintering studies on a commercial natural magnesite have been done to investigate the influence of MnO doping (MnO concentration from 0.16 to 2.50 wt.%) on the densification process over the temperature range 1520 to 1760°C , over periods of time from 3,600 to 57,600s in both oxidizing and reducing atmospheres (Air and PO2 = 10-7 KPa. In an air atmosphere the additions of MnO enhances the densification process. This fact may be associated with an increase in lattice diffusion of Mg ions due to an increase in cation vacancies in the MgO lattice from the presence of …


A Single Cylinder Engine Study Of Lean Supercharged Operation For Spark Ignition Engines, Kenneth Robert Schmid Jan 1982

A Single Cylinder Engine Study Of Lean Supercharged Operation For Spark Ignition Engines, Kenneth Robert Schmid

Masters Theses

"A comprehensive single cylinder engine test program to evaluate Lean Supercharged Operation (LSO) for spark ignition engines was conducted. The evaluation involved an experimental program studying the power, emissions, and efficiency of a single cylinder engine. The relationships between engine power, efficiency, and emissions and the engine operating variables such as absolute intake manifold pressure, Exhaust Gas Recirculation rates, and spark timing were studied"--Abstract, page ii.


Glass Surfaces Then And Now, Norbert J. Kreidl Jan 1982

Glass Surfaces Then And Now, Norbert J. Kreidl

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A reservoir of efficient instrumentation capable of detailed and quantitative exploration of glass surface features is now available in the face of the recognition of their crucial importance for both surface and bulk properties as well as performance. Yet it may be instructive to glance at what had been learned about glass surfaces by investigators before the advent of these intricate tools. Among such earlier findings are the recognition of the altered composition and structure of the surface layer, the extension of this disturbance to considerable depth, the effect of surface structure on adsorption, adhesion, wetting, finishing, etc. and on …

An Analytical Method For Quantifying The Electrical Space Heating Component Of A Cold Load Pick Up, Walter W. Lang, Max Darwin Anderson, David R. Fannin Jan 1982

An Analytical Method For Quantifying The Electrical Space Heating Component Of A Cold Load Pick Up, Walter W. Lang, Max Darwin Anderson, David R. Fannin

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

After an extended cold weather outage on a distribution circuit supplying a high saturation of electrical space heating, large transient overcurrent's persist for several hours because of the undiversified heating load. In this paper, the electrical space heating component of enduring demand is characterized by a smooth curve. Expressions are derived for the parameters of the curve in terms of the outage conditions and a statistical description of the residences. A method is suggested for using this characterization to determine the effects of a cold load pick up on the distribution circuit components. Copyright © 1982 by The Institute of …


Measurement Of Neck Development In Tensile Testing Using Projection Moire, Raghavan Srinivasan, C. S. Hartley, C. Raju, J. Clave Jan 1982

Measurement Of Neck Development In Tensile Testing Using Projection Moire, Raghavan Srinivasan, C. S. Hartley, C. Raju, J. Clave

Mechanical and Materials Engineering Faculty Publications

The projection moire technique affords an accurate method of measuring the geometry of the necked region in a tensile specimen. Corrections to the measured stress, necessary to account for the triaxiality introduced by the neck, require values for the radius of curvature of the specimen at the minimum section. The spacing of fringes resulting from the interference between a grating projected on the specimen surface and a master grating not only provide information which permits calculation of the radius but also demonstrates any changes in symmetry resulting from plastic deformation. Results obtained by testing specimens of copper and mild steel …
