Inferring parafoil glide slope by extending unsettled trajectories via simulation
… The initial objective to determine optimum glide slope of a parafoil using Design of Experiments via flight testing presented challenges. The flight tests and supporting simulations were carefully planned, and were to be conducted by making use of Design of Experiments to investigate the …

Two aspects of Sliammon phonology: Glide/Obstruent alternation and vowel length
… aspects of Sliammon phonology: the nature of the glide/obstruent alternation and the issue of phonemic vowel length. In this thesis an analysis of these issues is presented within a non-linear framework, adopting as a point of departure the model of feature geometry proposed by McCarthy (1988). …

Hypersonic Glide Vehicles: Implications for Strategic Stability in the Coming Hypersonic Era
Hypersonic glide vehicles represent one of the first major strategic weapons developments since the end of the Cold War. These missiles, which are capable of carrying both nuclear and non-nuclear payloads threaten to alter the strategic balance of terror that has kept that great powers at peace …

Low temperature glide cycles for energy storage applications: Thermodynamic and capital cost analysis
… including the Joule-Brayton, transcritical, and glide (also known as Kalina) cycles. The latter has not been extensively studied yet for PTES and is the focus of the present work. Akin to a Rankine cycle, it differs by employing a zeotropic mixture for the working fluid. As a result, evaporation …

Glides: the problem of definition and analysis, including a discussion of the treatment of semivowel glides in Micronesia and an acoustic phonetic analysis of glides in selected Trukic dialects
… phonetic definition and analysis of the term 'glide'. Towards the end of the nineteenth century two incompatible notions of the term glide came into use. One notion of glide referred to the phonemic segment

A precision autonomous parachute delivery system
… tests gathered GPS data used to evaluate canopy glide ratio changes, stall characteristics, and in-flight rotational oscillations in deep brakes flight, a region of the flight envelope not used in previous work. Results show that the low-porosity canopy used exhibits adequate glide ratio changes …
