(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)With an annual per capita consumption of one cubic meter, concrete is the most manufactured material on Earth. But concrete subject to sustained load creeps, like chewing gum, at a rate that deteriorates the durability and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Nanotechnology has advanced to the point where almost any molecular functional group can be introduced into a composite material system. However, emergent properties attained via the combination of arbitrary components - ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Hydrated organic thin films are biological or synthetic molecularly thin coatings which impart a particular functionality to an underlying substrate and which have discrete water molecules associated with them. Such films ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Subsurface contamination frequently originates from spatially distributed sources of Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (NAPLs). Such chemicals are typically persistent sources of groundwater contamination that are difficult to ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Indium is an important metal whose production is increasing dramatically due to new uses in the rapidly growing electronics, photovoltaic, and LED industries. Little is known, however, about the natural or industrial cycling ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Steroidal estrogens are potent endocrine disrupting chemicals that are naturally excreted by vertebrates (e.g., humans and fish) and can enter natural waters through the discharge of treated and raw sewage. Because estrogens ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)Rapid urbanization and technological innovations sparked the generation of massive volumes of data that is continually improving in resolution. In particular, mobile phones, having reached penetration levels above 97% in ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This thesis presents an Internet resource sharing architecture. It allows users to access and utilize unused computer resources, such as CPU cycles and storage, without an expert's knowledge. It achieves this by providing ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Models of urban traveler route choice are reviewed in the context of Intelligent Transportation Systems, particularly Advanced Traveler Information S ystems. Existing models suffer from assumptions of perfect information ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)Viscous properties of clay pertain to numerous geotechnical problems, such as excessive settlements associated with constructed fills on marine clays, or rate-dependent cyclic response of offshore foundations under wave ...
