Time Domain Analysis Of Electromagnetic Scattering From Multiple Cavities Embedded In A Ground Plane, Richard P. Uber
Time Domain Analysis Of Electromagnetic Scattering From Multiple Cavities Embedded In A Ground Plane, Richard P. Uber
Theses and Dissertations
This work examines the scattered fields produced when a transient wave is reflected from an infinite perfect electric conductor (PEC) ground plane with multiple embedded cavities. Incident and reflected waves will be decomposed into transverse magnetic to the z direction (TMz) and transverse electric to the z direction (TEz) polarizations, with primary focus given to the TMz. Cavities may be unfilled, partially filled, or fully filled with non-magnetic dielectric material and no assumptions are made regarding similarity, regularity, or periodicity. The Newmark method is used to discretize time and a variational formulation is presented for each time step. The principle …

Cfd Model For Ventilation In Broiler Holding Sheds, Christian Heymsfield
Biological and Agricultural Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
Broiler production in Arkansas was valued at over $3.6 billion in 2013 (University of Arkansas Extension of Agriculture). Consequently, improvement in any phase of the production process can have significant economic impact and animal welfare implications. From the time poultry leave the farm and until they are slaughtered, they can be exposed to harsh environmental conditions, both in winter and in summer. After road transportation, birds are left to wait in holding sheds once they arrive at the processing plant, for periods of approximately 30 minutes to two hours. This project was interested in this holding shed waiting time during …
