Adams, Daniel | Microbial production of methane and carbon dioxide from lignite, bituminous coal, and coal waste materials | The aim of this study was to examine microbial methane and CO2 production from bituminous coal waste, lignite, and bituminous coal materials. Bituminous coal and coal waste material were obtained from a Utah mine and lignite was obtained from a commercially available North Dakota sample. Microbial p... | | 2012-01-01 |

Tran, Thomas T. D. | System scaling approach and thermoeconomic analysis of a pressure retarded osmosis system for power production with hypersaline draw solution: A Great Salt Lake study | Osmotic power with pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) is an emerging renewable energy option for locations where fresh water and salt water mix. Energy can be recovered from the salinity gradient between the solutions. This study provides a comprehensive feasibility analysis for a PRO power plant in a ... | Pressure retarded osmosis; Power generation; Renewable energy; Hydroelectric; Levelized cost | 2017-06 |

Mathews, V. John | Equalization of excursion and current-dependent nonlinearities in loudspeakers | This paper presents a novel equalizer for nonlinear distortions in direct-radiator loudspeakers in a closed cabinet by constructing an exact inverse of an electro-mechanical model of the loudspeaker. This exact inverse compensates for distortions introduced by excursion and current-dependent nonline... | | 2014-01-01 |

Eckhoff, David W. | Drought happens: get used to it! Will technology help us to survive? | Drought is not the most popular subject in the world. Actually, as opposed to death, I think there are some bright spots in the drought mitigation future. I will review some of these in this lecture, but I'm also going to discuss some of the downsides of drought, because you can't have one without t... | Wastewater reclamation; Tiered water rates | 2002-09-10 |

Smith, Amanda D. | Modeling two-phase flow and vapor cycles using the generalized fluid system simulation program | This work presents three new applications for the general purpose fluid network solver code GFSSP developed at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center: (1) cooling tower, (2) vapor-compression refrigeration system, and (3) vapor-expansion power generation system. These systems are widely used across eng... | Modeling; Fluid systems; Cooling tower; Vapor compression refrigeration, vapor power cycle | 2017-09 |
