Florence
(2015-05)Florence is an 8-minute narrative film about an adolescent girl with a spectrum of Asperger's Syndrome that is medically misdiagnosed and prescribed psychotropic medication. The following report gives and account of the ... -

Flow and transport modeling in large river networks
(2014-08)The work presented in this dissertation discusses large scale flow and transport in river networks and investigates advantages and disadvantages of grid-based and vector-based river networks. This research uses the Mississippi ... -
Flow and transport through and deformation of rough fractures : theoretical and numerical modeling studies
(2015-05)Understanding physical, chemical, and mechanical processes and properties of a single fracture is fundamental to many processes on Earth, particularly hydrogeological phenomena across many scales. However, classical and ... -
Flow around a dredge spoil island in a shallow estuary during peak tidal currents
(2013-12)A vessel-mounted ADCP study focusing on channel-scale flow patterns in Galveston Bay near the Houston Shipping Channel and Mid-Bay Island is described. Winds of 5-7 m/s at 215-230◦ from N were present during data collection. ... -
Flow behavior and microstructure of cement-based materials
(2014-05)The flow behavior of concrete is highly impacted by the inherent structure of the paste matrix, which in turn is governed by the aggregation mechanisms within the paste matrix. Further, the mixing process is an essential ... -
Flow control simulation with synthetic and pulsed jet actuator
(2010-08)Two active flow control methods are investigated numerically to understand the mechanism by which they control aerodynamics in the presence of severe flow separation on an airfoil. In particular, synthetic jets are applied ... -
Flow coupling during three-phase gravity drainage
(2011-06)We measure the three-phase oil relative permeability k(ro) by conducting unsteady-state drainage experiments in a 0.8 m water-wet sand pack. We find that when starting from capillary-trapped oil, k(ro) shows a strong ... -
Flow decomposition of cost-constrained networks
(2007-12)In this thesis, we consider the problem of communicating data over a network of cost-constrained networks. We first look at a network with a single source and a single destination and prove that the information-theoretic ... -
Flow in multitasking : the effects of motivation, artifact, and task factors
(2014-08)The aims of this dissertation study are 1) to examine how the interplay of motivation, artifacts, and task interconnectedness affect users' flow experience, 2) to understand users' multitasking patterns by analyzing ... -
Flow of particulate suspensions through constrictions : multi-particle effects
(2013-08)Particle-laden flows occur in a variety of natural and industrial situations. As particulate suspensions flow through a medium, particles are often retained at constrictions such as pore throats, outlets or orifices. This ... -
Flow through drying of porous media
(2005)The flow of a saturated gas through a porous medium, partially occupied by a liquid phase, causes evaporation due to gas expansion. This process, referred to as flow-through drying, is important in a wide variety of natural ...
