Intermodal variability and optimal mode selection
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Transportation cost is one of the major costs in supply chain. Companies need to optimize every aspect of the transportation process to reduce the total logistics cost. A key aspect is optimal mode selection to minimize ... -
Intermodulation distortion in a broad band balanced mixer.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1969) -
Internal Combustion Engine Performance using Aluminum as Fuel
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)The aluminum-water reaction has been proven as a concept for a safe, economical, and energy-dense storage mechanism for hydrogen fuel. One of the challenges facing aluminum-fuel technology is the sensitivity of hydrogen ... -
Internal cooling of a high speed supercharged diesel engine by manifold water injection.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1971) -
Internal dynamics of the short-term commercial aircraft engine leasing market
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)General trends in the commercial aircraft aftermarket indicate an increased reliance of leased engines in operators' spare engine strategies. A methodology for forecasting short-term engine lease demand is developed using ... -
Internal energy of water molecule clusters in a jet
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1991) -
Internal entrepreneurship as a corporate strategy for new product development.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1967) -
Internal entrepreneurship in the aerospace industry.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1973) -
Internal gravity waves and sediment transport in Hudson Submarine Canyon
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1980) -
Internal hydraulic jumps with upstream shear
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Internal hydraulic jumps in flows with upstream shear are investigated numerically and theoretically. The role of upstream shear has not previously been thoroughly investigated, although it is important in many oceanographic ... -
Internal marketing and employee satisfaction : a missing link in Japanese service management
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)The concepts and techniques of internal marketing and employee satisfaction are becoming very popular in western companies, supported by accomplishments in service management based on of the Service-Profit Chain and ... -
Internal modes in high temperature plasmas
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1983) -
Internal multiscale autoregressive processes, stochastic realization, and covariance extension
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)The focus of this thesis is on the identification of multiscale autoregressive (MAR) models for stochastic processes from second-order statistical characterizations. The class of MAR processes constitutes a rich and powerful ... -
Internal resistance variances in lithium-ion batteries and implications in manufacturing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)This thesis addresses issues in manufacturing that lead to cell DC internal resistance (DCIR) variance, provides an overview of generally accepted cell degradation mechanisms and modeling techniques associated with IR as ... -
The internal scattering of ultrasound by biological tissues
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976) -
Internal tide generation by tall ocean ridges
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Internal tides are internal waves of tidal period generated by tidal currents flowing over submarine topography. Tall ridges that are nominally two-dimensional (2-D) are sites of particularly strong generation. The subsequent ... -
Internal tides near steep topographies
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)The primary contributions of this thesis include the first stages of development of a 2D, finite-volume, non-hydrostatic, [sigma]-coordinate code and beginning to apply the Dynamically Orthogonal field equations to study ... -
An internal variable constitutive model for the hot working of metals
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1987) -
An internal variable theory for isotropic visco-elastic-plastic solids : application to indentation of amorphous polymeric solids
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)A significant advance in modeling the plastic deformation of amorphous polymers has been made by Parks, Argon, Boyce, Arruda, and their co-workers (e.g. Parks, Argon, & Bagepalli, 1985; Boyce, Parks, & Argon, 1998; Arruda ... -
Internalism and armchair reasoning
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)In this thesis, I try to answer some basic questions about the a priori. Namely, what is it supposed to be? Should we believe in its existence? And is it important? Chapter One, "The Problem of Forgotten Evidence," sets ...
