Design and analysis of multi-section eccentric shaft
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 1996-12)
In this report the preliminary design and analysis of multi-section eccentric shaft to be used on four-rotor Wankel rotary engine is discussed. Only a static analysis was performed due to time constraints. This novel design ...
Wireless LANs
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2000-12)
There are three digital wireless technologies: CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), TDMA (Time Division Multiple access), and GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication). Ethernet is a standard LAN protocol that operates ...
Cryptography and Steganography: Security in Electronic Transactions
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2000-12)
A new use for two ancient arts and sciences; Cryptography and Steganography are now as useful as they were thousands of years ago. The digital communication security rests mainly on the developments of these two methodologies ...
Leveling of Oil Fuel Prices Through Hedging Practices at the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2000-12)
Up to the present, all the discussions since mid 1980's regarding the convenience of leveling fuel costs have been developed on a qualitative basis. This paper will try to provide quantitative information for corporate ...
Study of the density of states in amorphous Silicon-Hydrogen using the semiconductor/electrolyte system
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 1996-12)
Localized states in amorphous Silicon-Hydrogen are studied by pulsed measurements on the a-Si:H/electrolyte (S/E) system. The S/E interface is essentially blocking to current flow. As a result, surface space-charge layers, ...
Vector quantization
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 1996-12)
Data compression is the packing of data, the process of transforming a body data into a smaller representation from which the original or an approximation of the original can be computed at a later time. Most data sources ...
Bridges under dynamic loads: comparison between finite element analysis and experimental results
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 1997-06)
AASHO Road Test performed experimental tests on bridges under dynamic and static truck loads. This paper shows a comparison between AASHO's tests and the analytical results of UPR-PAVI2, a computer program developed by the ...
Implementation of the stiffness method within MathCad numeric computation environment
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 1996-12)
This article presents a case study of a simple planar framed structure to show an original implementation of the stiffness method of structural analysis within MathCad numeric computation environment. This approach was ...
Golden section search solution of single variable optimization problems using MathCad
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 1997-06)
The method of solution presented in this article is based on a searching technique known as the Golden Section Rule. This method can be used for solving single-variable optimization problems without constraints, but for ...
Colapso de un muro de contención construido con mampostería
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 1997-06)
This study presents the analysis of a masonry retaining wall, typically built in Puerto Rico to stabilize and retain slopes. How safe and well built are these walls?. Have they the adequate resistance to efficiently retain ...
