Dynamic Bus Lane
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2012-07-25)
This dissertation documents the research conducted to investigate the feasibility of implementing a "Dynamic Bus Lane" (DBL) system on Westheimer Road in Houston, Texas, and to determine the particular conditions when the ...
Investigation Of Co-pyrolysis Between Sargassum Macroalgae And Polystyrene
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2012-07-25)
Biomass is one source of renewable energy which helps minimize greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically carbon dioxide (CO2), since biomass utilizes CO2 via photosynthesis. Various conversion processes are applied to ...
Use Of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete In Structural Members With Highly Complex Stress Fields
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2012-04-11)
Reinforced concrete (RC) members with significant geometric discontinuities and complex stress distributions under loading require considerable analyses and usually complicated reinforcement detailing. RC members with large ...
Fluorinated And Fluorocarbon Coating Of TiO₂ By Pulsed Plasma Processing: Improved Photocatalytic Oxidation Of Gaseous M-Xylene And Mercury
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2012-04-11)
Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) is a preferred catalyst for photocatalytic oxidation of many air pollutants. In an effort to enhance its photocatalytic activity, TiO₂ was modified by pulsed plasma treatment. In this work, TiO₂ ...
