Physically modeling and mathematically simulating pressure transients in transfer lines
Characterizing transient flow is not a trivial venture. It provides an excellent challenge for a senior mechanical engineering lab class. This project aimed at developing a new physical system for such a class based on the benefits and short comings of the previously used physical system. A …

The Performance Comparison of Fixed and Flexible Buffer Allocation Systems in Automated Transfer Lines (Production Management, Assembly Line)
… important problems in the design of an automated transfer line is the allocation of buffers under the restriction of an overall buffer limit. In the first part of the research, new heuristics are developed for the case of fixed buffer sizes, so as to maximize production efficiencies. Unlike the …

Integrated quality and quantity modeling of a production line
… quality, and productivity are inter-related in transfer lines. We develop a new Markov process model for machines with both quality and operational failures, and we identify important differences between types of quality failures. We present analytic models, solution techniques, performance …

Multiphase Flow Effects on Naphthenic Acid Corrosion of Carbon Steel
… flow conditions, can impair the integrity of transfer lines in crude distillation units. Previous studies have shown that NAP corrosion is particularly aggressive in the presence of a liquid phase at the metal surface. Although the effect of flow was previously assessed in single-phase flow …

Studies on the Inheritance of Idiotypic Markers of Mouse Antibody to Streptococcal Group A Carbohydrate and on Other Genetic Factors Which Influence the Immune Response
… have been used as donors for spleen cell transfers (10<sup>7</sup> spleen cells per recipient) to irradiated (500 R) recipient syngeneic mice. The immunized recipient mice produced anti-Group A antibody identical to that of the donor mouse. Such cell transfer lines have been propagated for …

Calibration, optimization, and deployment of PTR-MS instruments during the AIRMAP project
<p>Proton Transfer Reaction Mass Spectrometry (PTR-MS) is an increasingly popular technique for monitoring volatile organic compounds with high sensitivity and time resolution. This dissertation encompasses three different projects, sharing the common theme of expanding the knowledge and utility of …
