A study of parametric excitation applied to a MEMS tuning fork gyroscope
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
is presented. For non-contact motion analysis, an Eagle 3-D motion analysis digital camera system is employed. We discuss the practical problems such as limited shaker power, which is caused by open-loop excitation method. A governing equation including...
Specific bio-modeling and analysis techniques at cellular and systems level
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Modeling approaches are developed for two different levels, cellular (Part I) and systems (Part II), and used to develop insights into system performance. PART I consists of three chapters focusing on computational ...
A new lumped parameter model for coronary blood flow, using nondimensional analysis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The studies of the coronary circulation hemodynamics are of great importance due to the high mortality and morbidity associated with coronary diseases. ...
Mechanical behavior of transparent fiber reinforced polyester composites at extreme temperatures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Selecting materials for harsh or extreme environmental conditions can be a challenge. The combination of a harsh environment, large forces over extended periods and the need for lowest possible cost restricts the choice ...
Sensitivity analysis and optimal design of conventional and magnnetorheological fluid brakes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Mechanical and electrical brakes have dominated the braking industry for many years and will most likely continue to do so for the foreseeable future due to their low cost and adequate operating performance, wide range of ...
System modeling and control design of a two-stage metering poppet-valve system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The goal of this work is to develop mathematical models, stability criteria, and control designs for a two-stage poppet valve system with a simple back-side pipeline condition that may be used in a valve stack to create ...
Thermal transport of nanoenergetics in composite materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
Nanoenergetic materials such as nanothermites are made up of a mixture of nanoscale fuel and oxidizer particles separated by small distances to promote rapid reaction. When reacted, they can reach an adiabatic flame ...
Using feedback linearization to alter the performance of multiple linear hydraulic-actuators powered by the same pump
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
valves with no additional sensing needed. The feedback linearization improves the tracking performance as measured by the R-squared value and increases the bandwidth frequency for lift and dump actuator thereby the operator's fatigue is decreased by 7.50...
Development of tailored preform processing technology for net-shape manufacturing of large monolithic structures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The aim of the present research effort involves exploration of a new processing approach, "Tailored Preform Processing (TPP)" technology for net-shape manufacturing of monolithic structures for the transportation industry. ...
Development of an integrated approach combining artificial neural network material based on modeling with finite element analysis of forming processes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
The use of a finite element model for design and analysis of a metal forming processes is limited by the incorporated material model's ability to predict deformation behavior over a wide range of operating conditions. ...
