SAE Baja 2015
The SAE Baja competition is a student design competition that test a students ability to design, engineer, build, test, promote, and compete with a vehicle within the limits set by the rules. The goal is to create a single ... -
Salinity tolerance and osmotic response of the estuarine hermit crab Pagurus maclaughlinae in the Indian River Lagoon, Florida.
(2010)Pagurus maclaughlinae is the most common hermit in the Indian River Lagoon System. Wide variations in lagoonal salinity make it likely that P. maclaughlinae is euryhaline and that other hermit species in the area are ... -
Salt Transport to Saturated Porous Media under Unstable Conditions: Experimental, Analytical, and Numerical Studies
(2020-12)There are three main transport mechanisms that occur under unstable flow conditions: a) The transport of saltwater from the overlying salt source to the underlying porous media, b) the transport of an equivalent volume of ... -
San Francisco Crime Classification
•Machine learning competition hosted by Kaggle.com •12 years of San Francisco arrests data given •Goal is to predict the category of crime, given time and location •Assist in building a safer society •Work in a highly ... -
Sand Dune Elevations on the Earth, Mars, and Titan
Sand dunes are observed on many places in the solar system. They are found on bodies with atmospheres and are formed through wind processes. Dunes can tell us about the geological process on the planets they inhabit. Dunes ... -
Sands of time: a renourished beach vs. a non-renourished beach
The effects of beach renourishment were examined at two different beaches located in Brevard County, Florida: Avenue B and Ponce Landing. Two profiles were taken the summer of 2015 at Avenue B and one profile was taken at ... -
Scaling Flight Test Data Between a Scaled Aircraft and a Cessna 172 for Use in Trajectory Energy Model Validation
(2021-07)Currently in the general aviation sector, a new type of aircraft is rising to prominence. It is known as Urban Air Mobility (UAM) and takes many shapes and sizes. The goal of UAM is to produce aircraft that can be used to ... -
Scaling Laws for Fixed-Wing Single-Engine Electric Propulsion Systems
(2021-05)The rise of new aircraft propulsion methods (e.g., powered by batteries, fuel cells, or hybrid electric systems), the increased use of automated and integrated flight control systems, and the envisioned use of personal ... -
The scaling of crime concentration in cities
(2017-04-11)Crime is a major threat to society’s well-being but lacks a statistical characterization that could lead to uncovering some of its underlying mechanisms. Evidence of nonlinear scaling of urban indicators in cities, such ... -
Scaling properties of azimuthal anisotropy in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sNN=200GeV
(2007-04-16)Differential measurements of elliptic flow (v2) for Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sNN=200GeV are used to test and validate predictions from perfect fluid hydrodynamics for scaling of v2 with eccentricity, system size, and ... -
Scaling properties of fractional momentum loss of high- pT hadrons in nucleus-nucleus collisions at √sNN from 62.4 GeV to 2.76 TeV
(2016-02-22)Measurements of the fractional momentum loss (Sloss ≡ δpT/pT) of high-transverse-momentum-identified hadrons in heavy-ion collisions are presented. Using π⁰ in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at √sNN=62.4 and 200 GeV measured ... -
Schur Complement Algebra and Operations with Applications in Multivariate Functions, Realizations, and Representations
(2021-05)We provide a new approach to the following multidimensional realizability problem: Can an arbitrary square matrix, whose entries are from the field of multivariate rational functions over the complex numbers, be realized ... -
Science of Active Galactic Nuclei with the GTC and CanariCam
(2008-07-09)CanariCam is the facility mid-infrared (MIR) instrument for the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), a 10.4m telescope at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos on La Palma. One of the science drivers for CanariCam is the ... -
SDM propagation model for multiple channels using electromagnetic theory and vortex analysis
(2010-04-05)Spatial Domain Multiplexing (SDM) is a novel technique in optical fiber communications. Single mode fibers are used to launch Gaussian beams of the same wavelength into a multimode step index fiber at specific angles. Based ... -
SDM propagation model for multiple channels using ray theory
(2010-04-28)Spatial Domain Multiplexing (SDM) is a novel optical fiber multiplexing technique where multiple channels of the same wavelength are launched at specific angles inside a standard step index multimode carrier fiber. These ... -
