Radiative emissivity of metals and oxidized metals at high temperature 

Teodorescu, George (2007-08-15)
Radiative emissivities of metals at high temperatures influence the energy balance and remote sensing in a wide range of manufacturing processes as well as research and development activities and thereby determine performance ...

Radio Frequency Heating for Dehydration and Pest Control of In-Shell Peanuts 

Harraz, Hatem (2007-05-15)
For many decades conventional wagon drying (curing) systems or batch/continuous flow drying systems have been used for peanut dehydration. Both are time and energy consuming. Radio Frequency (RF) dielectric heating has ...

Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits for Wireless and Wireline Communications 

Kakani, Vasanth (2007-12-15)
This dissertation presents my studies in design of high frequency circuits for wireless and wireline communication systems. As a part of this effort a seven tap transversal filter has been designed using broadband amplifiers. ...

Radio Frequency Module on Small Gasoline Engine Application 

Huang, Tian (2013-04-04)
Radio frequency communications applications are typically more applied than plain research in many aspects. A new application for radio frequency communications has been investigated for controlling the small gasoline ...

Radio Frequency Sensing Systems for Artificial Intelligence of Things 

Yang, Chao (2022-05-02)
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT) has evolved into artificial intelligence (AIoT). The development of an effective and low-cost human health detection system has attracted ...

Radio Source Signal Localization Methods and Hardware Simulation 

Carter, Patrick (2023-02-23)
This thesis identifies and derives several methods of transmitter localization as well as collects several pre-existing algorithms and adapts them to the use of passive GPS interference localization. Due to legal ...

Radish Cover Crop Growth and Compaction Alleviation Potential in Southeastern Coastal Plain Soils 

Cofer, Trevor (2019-11-19)
Soil compaction in the form of hardpans often restricts cash crop root growth in the southeastern U.S., reducing plant vigor and yield potential for crops with deep taproots such as cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Planting ...

Rainbow Cycle Forbidding Edge Colorings 

Owens, Andrew (2019-07-18)
It is well known that K_n can be edge colored using n-1 colors in order to avoid rainbow cycles; moreover, this is the maximum number of colors possible. We call such an edge coloring a JL-coloring. In previous work it has ...

Rainbow Trees in Edge-Colored Complete Graphs and Block Decompositions of Almost Complete Graphs 

Perry, Katherine (2017-04-26)
This dissertation focuses on two problems, the first involving the existence of many edge-disjoint rainbow spanning trees in edge-colored complete graphs, and the second, creating a balanced sampling plan for a two-dimensional ...

Rainfall Simulator Construction and Evaluation of Erosion Control Practices 

Manning, Christin (2021-12-03)
This thesis addresses the performance of erosion control products using the Auburn University Stormwater Research Facility ASTM D6459 rainfall simulators. Five products were tested for the ALDOT project Evaluation of ALDOT ...

Raman-Spectrokinetics to Determine Structure-Reactivity Relationships in Catalytic Reactions with Supported Metal Oxide Catalysts 

Moncada Vivas, Jorge Antonio (2020-07-20)  ETD File Embargoed
The relationship between catalyst surface structure and reactivity/selectivity still represents one of the most important questions to be addressed in modern heterogeneous catalysis. Such fundamental information would allow ...

Random and Vector Measures: from "Toy" Measurable Systems to Quantum Probability 

Courtney, Kristin (2013-07-10)
Vector measure theory and Bochner integration have been well studied over the past century. This work is an introduction to both theories and explores various examples and applications in each. The theories and theorems ...

Random Time Change and Some Applications 

Peterson, Amy (2014-04-25)
This thesis is a survey of known results concerning random time change and its applications. It will cover basic probabilistic concepts and then follow with a detailed look at major results in several branches of probability ...

Range Expansion Dynamics and Interspecific Interactions of the Invasive Cuban Treefrog in Florida 

Goetz, Scott (2017-11-20)
Biological invasions simultaneously represent a threat to native biota and provide an opportunity to test ecological and evolutionary ideas. Increased interest in the field of invasion ecology has greatly improved our ...

Rank Based Group Variable Selection for Functional Linear Model 

Park, Jieun (2019-12-09)
We propose a robust rank based variable selection method for a functional linear regression model with multiple explanatory functions and a scalar response. The procedure extends rank based group variable selection to ...

Gong, Yankun (2011-05-16)
This dissertation considers rank based methods for one sample and two sample repeated measurement data. As a specific example, in Chapter 2, this dissertation considers nonparametric tests for selective predation. ...

Rank-Based Estimation for Generalized Additive Models 

Correia, Hannah Elizabeth (2016-07-08)
This thesis focuses on the improvement of generalized additive models (GAMs) using rank estimators. We introduce estimation of the smoothing functions in GAMs via backfitting in a local scoring algorithm using maximization ...
