Development Of A True-cost Concept For Renewal Of Municipal Underground Pipeline Systems
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2012-04-11)
Asset management principles for underground pipeline infrastructure (UPI) are used by municipalities for efficient delivery of water, wastewater, and storm sewers. Due to budget constraints and limited resources, ...
Chemostratigraphy And The Paleoceanography Of The Bossier-Haynesville Formation, East Texas Basin, Texas and LA, USA
(Geology, 2012-04-11)
The fine-grained, dark, organic, calcareous Haynesville shale (Kimmeridgian), and the overlying carbonate-poor Bossier shale (Tithonian) was deposited during the warmer Jurassic period in the tectonically formed East Texas ...
Real-time Dynamic Hand Shape Gesture Controller
(Electrical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
The main objective of this thesis is to build a real time gesture recognition system which can spot and recognize specific gestures from continuous stream of input video. We address the recognition of single handed dynamic ...
Pilot Based Channel Estimation For 3GPP LTE downlink
(Electrical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
Channel estimation is an important part for the design of receivers in mobile communication systems. In order to recover the transmitted information correctly, the effect of the channel on the transmitted signal must be ...
Competition Between Dorsal Root Reflex And Sympathetic Activity On Neurogenic Inflammation
(Psychology, 2012-04-11)
Neurogenic inflammation is caused by the inflammatory substances released from the peripheral terminals of afferent fibers. Vasodilation is one of the cardinal signs of neurogenic inflammation. It is thought that neurogenic ...
