A Flexible Model for Multi-agent Based Simulation of Software Development Process
(2007-12-15)
Inadequate use of project management techniques in software development can be traced to the lack of efficient education strategies for managers. Software development processes are complex and therefore it is hard to predict ...
Flexible Nonvolatile Cu/CuxO/Ag ReRAM Fabricated Using Ink-Jet Printing Technology
(2014-05-01)
The design and fabrication of flexible Cu/CuxO/Ag ReRAM devices is presented in this work. We have investigated Cu/CuxO/Ag capacitor-like structure which exhibits bipolar resistive switching behavior under low-range direct ...
Flexible Superconducting Microwave Interconnects and Connectors
(2018-04-29)
One of the major limitations to constructing densely-integrated cryogenic electronic systems is the electrical interconnect technology. Superconducting cables with multiple signals, high signal density, low loss, low thermal ...
Flexible, Ultra-Thin, Embedded Die Packaging
(2010-10-26)
As thin, flexible electronics solutions become more robust, their integration into everyday life becomes more likely. With possible applications in wearable electronics, biomedical sensors, or ‘peel and stick’ sensors, the ...
Flexural Response of Syntactic Foam Core Sandwich Structures: Effects of Graded Face Sheets and Interpenetrating Phase Composite Foam Core
(2011-05-09)
In this thesis, flexural responses of sandwich structures with different syntactic foam core architectures are studied. The syntactic foam core is made by dispersing hollow glass microballoons in epoxy matrix at different ...
Flip Chip and Heat Spreader Attachment Development
(2009-04-09)
Flip chip packages offer many advantages over traditional wire bonding based packages. Flip chip packages have high input/output (I/O) handling capability, better electrical performance and smaller size. Proper package ...
Flip Chip and Lid Attachment Assembly Process Development
(2006-12-15)
Flip chip technology offers numerous advantages over conventional packages by virtue of its electrical performance, greater input/output (I/O) flexibility and small size. This study focuses on two flip chip assembly process ...
Flood Control in Toulmins Spring Branch Watershed through LID Practices
(2016-08-03)
Urbanization is known to cause increases in volume of stormwater runoff and peak flow rates, which leads to changes in natural flow regime and increases the likelihood of flooding. Conventional stormwater management practices ...
Flood Debris Build-Up Loading and Assessment of Adequacy of ALDOT Bridge Pile Bents During Extreme Flood/Scour Events
(2005-08-15)
A description of a flood debris build-up loading and an assessment of the adequacy of a chosen group of typical ALDOT bridge pile bents having various loading conditions and under various amounts of scour are presented in ...
Flood Risk Assessment for the Vulnerable Populations and Infrastructure: Village Creek, Birmingham, Alabama
(2017-05-15)
Urban flooding is a prominent natural hazard in Village Creek that is associated with the large expanse of impervious surfaces in the area, which enhance storm runoff and overwhelm the drainage capacity of the storm sewer ...
Flooding Tolerance and Phosphorus Uptake of Southeastern Native Plants in Bioretention Gardens
(2013-08-01)
Bioretention gardens restore hydrologic function of urban landscapes and capture
stormwater runoff pollutants, such as phosphorus, a main pollutant in urban cities and
residential neighborhoods. Monoculture plantings are ...
Flooding Tolerance of Six Native Landscape Plants for Use in Southeastern Rain Gardens
(2016-05-04)
Rain gardens are an effective, attractive, and sustainable stormwater management solution for residential areas and urban green spaces. Although design considerations such as size, susbstrate depth, substrate type, and ...
Floodplain Vegetation and Soil Dynamics of the Alabama Piedmont Across a Gradient of Stream Channel Incision
(2013-08-01)
Erosion resulting from past land use in cultivated uplands of the Alabama Piedmont has contributed to variable stream conditions throughout the region, with high degrees of channel incision often typifying degraded riparian ...
A Floor Space Valuation Method for Automotive Electronics Manufacturing
(2009-05-15)
Manufacturing complex products in order to survive the competition in the automotive electronics industry requires high volume manufacturing combined with high levels of quality and automation at a very low cost. All of ...
Floral Biology of Alabama’s Spigelia species (Family Loganiaceae)
(2021-05-04)
This thesis examines the pollination ecology of Alabama species of Spigelia. Alabama currently has two species that are under threat of extinction: S. gentianoides and S. alabamensis. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has ...
A Floristic Study of Weaver Creek Wetland, Santa Rosa County, Florida
(2008-05-15)
Steepheads (streams that originate from the bases of valley walls) create a unique freshwater wetland habitat. Currently, steepheads are known to exist only in the southeastern United States along the Gulf Coastal Plain. ...
