(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1987)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)For many years Round the World racers and leading yacht owners have appreciated the benefit of carbon. Carbon fiber spars are around 50% lighter and considerably stronger than traditional aluminum masts. The result is ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)With the growth of Low Cost Carriers (LCC) and their use of simplified fare structures, the airline industry has seen an increased removal of many fare restrictions, especially in markets with intense LCC presence. This ...
-
Fare policy analysis for public transport : a discrete-continuous modeling approach using panel data (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In many large metropolitan areas, public transport is very heavily used, and ridership is approaching system capacity in the peak periods. This has caused a shift in attention by agency decision-makers to strategies that ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Flooding has always been a major concern for coastal communities. However, many parts of New York City never had to worry about flooding until Hurricane Sandy hit in October 2012. The hurricane brought a record level storm ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)The recent trend of using fine water mist systems to replace the legacy HALON- 1301 fire suppression systems warrants further study into other applications of the water mist systems. Preliminary research and investigation ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1983)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1959)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)There has been a trend in structural design toward energy efficient design and motion based design. The strategy of motion based design is controlling the movement of structures to meet certain dynamic response requirements ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1993)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)A study to assess the feasibility of a novel solar water disinfection system developed by the author, Semi-Continuous Solar Disinfection (SC-SODIS), was conducted. Three aspects of SC-SODIS feasibility were considered: ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)This study explores the feasibility of reducing the purchasing costs of dry food by improving current logistic channels and aggregating demand. The value proposition is to reduce the purchase cost of dry food by 20% by ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)This thesis presents a feasibility study that validates the pursuit of a field inorganic chemical analysis instrument. The instrument envisioned will have commercial marketability, and the study will enhance the understanding ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)The iLab project began in June of 2000 with the initial goal of creating Internet accessible laboratory experiments. After the successful implementation of several distinct laboratories, the goals of the project shifted ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Flow and sedimentation around patches of vegetation are important to landscape evolution, and a better understanding of these processes would facilitate more effective river restoration and wetlands engineering. In wetlands ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)Environmental flows carry a wide variety of particles that interact with vegetation. Vegetated canopies are anchored by sediment, release pollen and seeds to colonize new ground, rely on nutrients carried by sediment, and ...
