Chinese Speed
Chinese Speed is an exploration of the affective dimensions of top-down modernist planning in the context of contemporary China. It is an investigation into lived experiences of state-funded mega-projects and the cultural impacts of infrastructure. Specifically, I look into the high-speed rail …

Increasing Speed Limit Compliance in Reduced-Speed School Zones
Reduced-speed school zones greatly improve the safety of young children commuting to and from school and provide larger gaps in traffic for children to cross the street. The main focus of this study was to determine effective methods for increasing speed compliance in reduced-speed school zones. …

Speed of the Earth : illusion and experience of speed and scale
The Speed of the Earth is a proposed sculpture dealing with light as pure experience within the context of short-lived rapid movement and large scale horizontal orientation within the environment. This will be accomplished through the use of rapidly sequenced strobe lights sited in a straight …

High Speed Compressor Design
Abstract: High Speed Compressor Design A long-standing paradox exists in high speed compressor blade design. As the inlet flow to a row of blades approaches the speed of sound, the two-dimensional (2D) design of that blade row becomes exceptionally difficult, with designers laboriously trying to …

Efficacy of Speed Monitoring Displays in Increasing Speed Limit Compliance in Highway Work Zones
… highway work zones, including lowering the mean speed of vehicles in the work zone, encouraging drivers to be alert in work zones, improving the control of traffic in merging areas, and improving the safety devices that separate vehicles and construction workers. This study focuses on the goal of …

Inferior speed capability, yet faster speed: Evidence from entry into liquefied natural gas industry
… management literature emphasizes the firm’s speed in the time-to-build its plant as a source of its competitive advantage. The extant research literature has achieved substantial progress by recognizing the firm’s speed in its time-to-build its plant as a strategic decision involving a …

Splined Speed Control using SpAM (Speed-based Acceleration Maps) for an Autonomous Ground Vehicle
There are many forms of speed control for an autonomous ground vehicle currently in development. Most use a simple PID controller to achieve a speed specified by a higher-level motion planning algorithm. Simple controllers may not provide a desired acceleration profile for a ground vehicle. Also, …

Maximizing AUV slow speed performance
… low cost improvements. Because the operating speed that minimizes forward drag is not necessarily the same as that required for optimum sensor performance, a variable speed capability extending to the bottom of the vehicle speed range is sought. Optimizing Odyssey IIB AUV performance for …

High-speed electrochemistry using ultramicroelectrodes
… new ways to apply ultramicroelectrodes to high speed experiments. Some of the aspects that are discussed in this thesis are: (a) A novel technique was developed for measuring currents on short time scales that involves conversion of the current to light using a light emitting diode and measuring …

Rotational speed dependent motor properties
… electromotive force (EMF) at high rotational speeds, which acts against applied voltage and drops motor efficiency steeply. By reducing the magnetic flux surrounding the coil of the stator, back EMF can be reduced and motor efficiency can be maintained at any rotational speed. Several …
