Dense, low-power environmental monitoring for smart energy profiling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Recent architectural trends have included exploring open space and the extensive use of glass as building material. While the details of these large, light-exposed, open-air environments can be modeled as thermal fluid ... -
Dependence of transuranic content in spent fuel on fuel burnup
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)As the increasing demand for nuclear energy results in larger spent fuel volume, implementation of longer fuel cycles incorporating higher burnup are becoming common. Understanding the effect of higher burnup on the spent ... -
Dependence of typing speed and accuracy on device type and familiarity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Typing has become increasingly present in modem lives through its uses in laptops, phones, tablets, and other consumer electronics. Current computers encourage high typing speeds by implementing mistake corrections such ... -
Depletion, quantum jumps, and temperature measurements of ⁸⁸Sr⁺ ions in a linear Paul Trap
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This thesis describes the design and construction of two laser systems to probe the 674nm transition of ⁸⁸Sr⁺ ions in a linear Paul trap. The first laser system made use of a molecular transition in Iodine to stabilize the ... -
Derivation of context axioms and semantics of data with the Domain Model Editor
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Deriving and verifying a general granular locomotion scaling law
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)The complexities of granular materials make modeling the interactions between grains and solid intruders, such as a wheel, incredible difficult. Often, modeling these interactions requires discrete particle simulation ... -
A description and simulation of a printed-circuit board manufacturing plant
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988) -
Design & analysis of a parallel drive spherical rotation mechanism for application in high tech farming robots
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Increasing global use of pesticides has resulted in a significant amount of pollution which continues to harm the life and ecology of our planet. This thesis proposes and investigates a mechanized alternative to chemical ... -
Design & Development of Short Benchtop Welding Positioner
