Classification of Asteroid 9983 Rick Fienberg using B, V, and R Photometry
(2012-08-09)Asteroid 9983 was classified using BVR broad-band photometry. Observations were performed with the 0.9-meter WIYN telescope at Kitt Peak Observatory, the S2KB camera, and timed to occur at opposition. These observations ... -
Angular Resolution of Human Sound Localization
(2012-08-09)Sound localization is very important to the acoustic community due to its capacity to replicate audio environments. Surround sound systems, theaters, and audio engineers all use localization techniques to give a listener ... -
Determining the Cost Effectiveness, Emissions Reduction, and Power Consumption of Full Scale Adoption of the Electric Vehicle
(2012-08-09)The electric vehicle as a viable mode of mass transportation has not been previously investigated. This investigation combines the cost effectiveness, emissions of green house gasses, and national power generating capacity, ... -
Investigation of Propellant Sloshing and Zero Gravity Equilibrium for the Orion Service Module Propellant Tanks
(2012-08-09)We study fluid slosh in the Orion Service Module propellant tanks. Resonant slosh frequencies were measured as a function of tank fill-fraction in a scaled model of the tanks. We carry out both computational and theoretical ... -
Comparison of the Matter and Interactions and Traditional Instruction Physics Curriculums
(2012-08-09)This paper describes the comparison of the Matter and Interactions and traditional physics curriculums. The language, textbooks, and existing assessment instruments of the curriculums were the focus of the comparison. ... -
Phase transitions in the Ising model with random gap defects using the Monte Carlo method
(2012-08-09)The Ising model, the simplest model of ferromagnetism, describes a magnetic lattice with nearest-neighbor interactions and is governed by Boltzmann statistics. The Monte Carlo method provides one approach to simulate ...
