Analysis of Thermal Energy Collection From Precast Concrete Roof Assemblies: The development of precast concrete housing systems provides an opportunity to easily and inexpensively incorporate solar energy collection by casting collector tubes into the roof structure. A design is presented for a precast solar water heating system used to aid in meeting the space and domestic water heating loads of...; Tags: Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Solar Energy, Analysis, Telecom & Utilities; White papers 2004-07-16
Ultimate Strength Analysis of Stiffened Panels Using a Beam-Column Method: An efficient beam-column approach, using an improved systematic numerical method, is developed in this study for studying the ultimate strength problems of stiffened panels with two load cases. This study presents an improved systematic numerical integration procedure to calculate the ultimate strength of a beam-column under axial compression, end moments,...; Tags: Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Analysis; White papers 2003-01-15
Power Flow Analysis of Electrostrictive Actuators Driven by Switchmode Amplifiers: This paper presents the analysis of the power flow between stacked electrostrictor actuators and a pulse-width-modulated switching amplifier. The amplifier and actuator are analyzed as components of a smart skin whose function is underwater acoustic echo cancellation. An integrated model is developed with includes a dynamic structural model of the...; Tags: Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Amplifier, Analysis; White papers 2002-09-16
Supply Chain Management Tradeoffs Analysis: Supply chain management involves understanding complex interactions between many factors and using the understanding to achieve balance between conflicting objectives. Simulation is a very useful technique to evaluate the impact of changes in factors such as inventory control and business process parameters. This paper describes a simulation based study for...; Tags: Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Logistics, Tradeoff, SCM, Analysis, Simulation, Supply Chain Management (SCM), Supply Chain, Operational Planning, Enterprise Software, Software, Business Operations; White papers 2004-11-11
Vizability: A Tool For Usability Engineering Process Improvement: The authors present Vizability, a usability engineering tool that is motivated by the variability of analysis processes and facilitates the analysis of existing problem data with the goal of process improvement. Usability engineers spend considerable resources performing usability testing and analyzing the resulting data, but their work is often limited...; Tags: Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Analysis, Tool, Productivity, Process Improvement, Quality, Business Operations; White papers 2006-03-10
