(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)The focus of this work is to evaluate the accuracy of methods for extracting damping ratios with respect to: three extraction methods, different damping ratios, added noisy data, separated modes and close modes. To achieve ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)River flood and rainfall have been shown to exhibit scale invariance behavior over a range of space and time scales. Although various approaches have been taken to investigate and model the various scaling aspects of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)We develop a methodology for the frequency of extreme rainfall intensities caused by tropical cyclones (TCs) in coastal areas. The mean rainfall field associated with a TC with maximum tangential wind speed Vmax, radius ...

(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, 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: ...
