Habitat Archipelago : a geofuturist proposal for architecture in the anthropocene
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2014-05)Nature and technology can be designed symbiotically through architecture. However, this change can only be achieved through the support and subsequent propagation of this idea though culture. Therefore, architecture's ... -
Hadlock Pond Aquatic Plant Survey - 2009
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2009-11-20) -
Hand harvesting Eurasian watermilfoil in Lake George
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 1991-06) -
Hand harvesting Eurasian watermilfoil in Lake George 1989 interim report
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 1989-12) -
Hanoi : urgan ecology and learning from ad-hoc architecture
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2012-12)As the conventional top-down urban planning strategy has proved its impotence in dealing with urban growth, combined with increasing evidence that informal housing clusters provide better energy consumption per capita, ... -
Hardness and high pressure deformation mechanisms of glass
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 1969-05)The annealing behavior of indentations in Si02 and caO·Si02 glass was investigated. The effect of heat treatment on indentation depths in silica glass was determined on 400 and 600 gram indentations. During the first 1/4 ... -
Harold M. Bixby and his pivotal role in early aviation
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2020-08-12) -
Head pose estimation on deep CNN models
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2017-08)Head pose estimation is an important computer vision task. Its applications can benefit people's daily life. In this thesis, our goal is to solve the head pose estimation problem using deep convolutional neural networks. ... -
Healing of dendrites in secondary metal batteries
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2020-05)Potassium (K) batteries offer a sustainable and low cost alternative to Li-ion technology. The utilization of K metal anodes allows for the development of high power potassium batteries. However, like Li, K metal anodes ... -
Healthcare affective lighting (HAL) : systems and methods for the study of ‘non-visual’ effects of indirect, ‘blue-regulated’, full spectrum, solid state, ‘white’ lighting on clinician wellness and performance, and ‘patient-safety’
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2016-12)The hypothesis of this study is that clinician wellness and performance in the execution of clinical procedures at the emergency department (ED) can be improved through controlled, indirect, ‘blue’-regulated, full visible ... -
Heat transfer characteristics for flow boiling of R134a in horizontal circular microtubes
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2009-12) -
Heat transfer characteristics of horizontal in-tube evaporation
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 1992-08)Oil addition to pure refrigerant in smooth tubes altered the flow pattern dramatically at low mass fluxes: the flow changed from stratified/wavy or wavy flow to semi-annular flow, with a resultant enhancement of the wetting ... -
Heat transfer enhancement of intube flows in process heat exchangers by means of twisted-tape inserts
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 1991-12) -
Heat transfer enhancement of single-phase flow and flow boiling in microchannels : an experimental study
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2014-12)Subcooled flow boiling of an engineering fluid -- HFE-7000 -- downstream a single pin fin was also studied. A liquid secondary jet was introduced into the flow to examine its merits pertinent to heat transfer enhancement. ... -
Heat transfer model and finite element formulation for simulation of selective laser melting additive manufacturing
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2017-08)Selective laser melting (SLM) is a type of additive manufacturing (AM) process that involves direct manufacturing by locally melting and binding of metallic powder using a guided laser beam. Rapid manufacturing processes ... -
Hemp decortication by a mastication process
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2019-08)The goal of this Master’s Thesis research was to design, fabricate and test a mechanical decortication system for unretted bast fiber plant stalks with a particular focus on hemp. To preserve hemp fiber quality and maximize ... -
Hempwerks : non-corroding concrete reinforcing made with natural fiber and thermoplastics
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2021-08)Infrastructure has been deteriorating for decades and climate change and urbanization are acceleratingtheir degradation. Much of our infrastructure is built with reinforced concrete, whose steel reinforcement can become a ... -
