Analysis of lubrication groove geometry
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)Lubrication is process of using lubricants in moving machine components to reduce friction and wear between them and consequently to improve their running life. In this thesis, a groove is introduced in these components ... -
Assessing mechanical properties of the cardiovascular system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)The elasticity of wall of the arteries plays a significant role in cardiovascular system. Capacitance of the aorta is predicative of cardiovascular events[1]. To get better understanding the function of the cardiovascular ... -
Controlling the kinematics of the left ventricle to treat resistant hypertension
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)The intention of this thesis is to present a novel controller design that eliminates hypertension in patients who suffer from resistant hypertension. The controller is designed by first translating the functionality of the ... -
Design of a water tower energy storage system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)This project is aimed at supporting the Mizzou Advantage strategic initiative in the area of Sustainable Energy. In particular, the project focuses on preparatory studies that will enable us to compete for national funding ... -
Designing and modeling a split torque hydrostatic transmission in series with a manual transmission for an automotive application
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)Increasing petroleum prices have developed a strong demand for an invention to reduce fuel consumption, as well as cut the produced amount of carbon dioxide via consumed fuel. Hybrid vehicles are an effective invention in ... -
Digital hydraulic systems : a theoretical comparative efficiency analysis of hydraulic systems with real pump models
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Digital hydraulic systems are a highly disputed technology in the field of fluid power. A digital hydraulic system controls load flow using a ... -
Modeling a hydraulic hybrid drivetrain : efficiency considerations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)Increasing petroleum prices and environmental concerns have caused a demand for more fuel efficient vehicles. Hybrid vehicles provide a solution to this demand, and hydraulic hybrid vehicles are shown to have a cheaper ...
