A Large part of operating costs of a hotel in Hawaii is the cost of energy for air conditioning. Building can be constructed to use energy more efficiently by using many methods, however, some of these method conflict with other concerns, aesthetics for example. Thus the process of designing and building an energy efficient hotel often involves trade-offs between energy efficiency and other objectives. The method proposed herein to reduce energy costs is to introduce seawater, pumped from the...

This study investigated a visual choice reaction time task to determine its suitability for repeated measures experimentation. Fifteen men served as subjects for one-, two-, and four-choice reaction time conditions. Fifty trials on each condition were administered for 15 days. Results indicated that across all RT conditions, intersession correlations were differentially stable by about Day 8, with reliabilities around .71. Means and variances remained unchanged over the stable days for the RT...

This study is to determine whether greater minimum spacing is required between push buttons for gloved operation than for bare-handed operation. Seventy-two undergraduate students served as subjects in groups of 12, one group for each of the six hand-wear conditions. The six hand-wear conditions consisted of one bare-handed group and five glove groups. Each of these five groups wore one of the following glove types: a butyl and cotton glove assembly, a butyl and nomex glove assembly, a leather...

Satellite collocation is not a new topic in the space community. The geostationary belt is considered a natural resource, and as time goes by, the physical spaces for geostationary satellites will run out. The Brazilian Air Force plans to collocate its satellite with another two satellites, and this thesis seeks the most efficient method in terms of fuel optimization and operational aspects. A Systems Tool Kit (STK) software simulation was developed that included various longitude collocation...

Although formal methods for developing computer systems have been available for more than a decade, few have had significant impact in practice. A major barrier to their use is that developers find formal methods difficult to understand and apply. One exception is a formal method called SCR for specifying computer system requirements which, due to its easy-to-use tabular notation and demonstrated scalability, has achieved some success in industry. To demonstrate and evaluate the SCR method and...

The report describes the Solar Panel Test Set developed for testing solar cell panels in artificial sunlight at an equivalent sunlight intensity of 140 mW/sq.cm. The test set uses iodine-quartz (tungsten) lamps as the radiant- energy source, and the emerging radiation is uniformly reflected and totally diffused. An air conditioner, which is part of the test set, provides the cooling air necessary to control the temperature of the solar panel under test. The methods of calibrating the test set...

This report discusses one new way to generate high pressure without using high quality explosives. Exploding foil techniques, the proposed method, results in a high pressure pulse of very short duration against a target. This phenomenon can be subdivided into three phases: the initial region at which the material heats up and explodes, the region of the dwell phase at which the vaporized material forms a low-conductivity vapor, and the region at which a resurge of current occurs in the vapor....

To be most efficient, an intelligent tutoring system must be based on a thorough analysis of the task that is being trained, and the knowledge, both declarative and procedural, that the learner must acquire in order to perform the task.

Because the simulation model must be explicitly stated in order to carry out the task properly, the model acts as a...
