RF Linearity Analysis In Nano Scale CMOS Using Harmonic Balance Device Simulations
(2008-09-09)
In this thesis, Intermodulation Linearity characteristics of CMOS have been
analyzed using power series and Harmonic Balance(HB) Method. Harmonic Bal-
ance method is a frequency domain steady state analysis method used ...
Feathers at a fine scale
(2008-09-09)
In 1668, Antoine von Leeuwenhoek improved the crude microscopes that were being produced in Europe to better study small biological objects (Madigan et al. 1997). Although von Leeuwenhoek 's microscope revolutionized ...
Development of a biosensor for the rapid detection of Salmonella Typhimurium in milk
(2008-09-09)
Foodborne illnesses are still serious problems in the United States. Methods for rapid detection of foodborne pathogens are needed to protect public health. The recent advances in biosensor technology enabled the rapid ...
Agent-mediated brokering and matchmaking for simulation model reuse on the semantic grid
(2008-09-09)
The need for simulation in military is increasing significantly due to high costs and safety limitations. Simulation in military is employed for training individuals in real-operating scenarios. The virtual, simulated ...
Bridge Pile Bent P-Delta Curves in Transverse Direction Using FB-Pier and GTSTRUDL Pushover Analysis Procedures
(2008-09-09)
Extreme flood events may create large transverse water loads that cause piles of a bent to bend about their weak axes in addition to causing scour. A comparison of the nonlinear pushover analysis procedures and resulting ...
Bioremediation of Pentachlorophenol and Bleach Plant Effluent by Trametes versicolor and its Extracellular Fluid, Focused on Intermediates and Products Formed and the Role of Protein Binding of Chlorinated Compounds in a Two-stage Reactor System
(2008-09-09)
Bioremediation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) from aqueous solutions can provide valuable methods to remove other toxins from aqueous solutions, those that are more or less persistent or toxic than PCP. Understanding the ...
Specific Interactions of Carbon Dioxide in Supercritical Fluid Processes and Nanoparticle Processing
(2008-09-09)
Specific interactions of molecules with supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) are of fundamental importance to the understanding of current processes and to the development of new processes. While relatively weak interactions ...
Efficacy of Long-Term and Short-Term Residential Substance Abuse Treatment Modalities
(2008-09-09)
The overall purpose of this study was to examine the efficacy of two drug treatment modalities: (1) long-term residential treatment extended care and (2) short-term residential treatment and their effectiveness in serving ...
Analysis of Simulated Performance of Integrated Vector Tracking and Navigation Loops for GPS
(2008-09-09)
An alternative GPS signal tracking method that uses an extended Kalman-Bucy filter in place of traditional independent, parallel tracking loops is presented in this thesis. Furthermore, this method is extended into a ...
Built-In Self-Test of Programmable Resources in Microcontroller Based System-on-Chips
(2008-09-09)
System-on-Chip (SoC) implementations typically incorporate embedded Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) cores to take advantage of the programmable logic and routing resources provided by FPGAs. Testing the FPGA core ...
