Discarded tires have been an environmental concern in different parts of the world. One mass application to avoid such environmental concern is to use them as embankment fill material in civil engineering projects. In such applications, discarded tires are usually used in a shred form referred as...

Caring for the radial artery post-angiogram: A pilot study on a comparison of three methods of compression
DownloadFall 2010
A coronary angiogram (CATH) is the diagnostic tool used to visualize the coronary arteries of a person’s heart. These arteries can be accessed through the radial artery. Various methods of applying compression to the radial puncture site have been used, but no research has been done to show...

Design of FPGA-based Accelerators for Deflate Compression and Decompression using High-Level Synthesis
DownloadFall 2019
As the volumes of data that are transmitted over the internet continue to increase, data compression is becoming increasingly necessary in order to efficiently utilize fixed data storage space and bandwidth. The Deflate compression algorithm is one of the most widely used lossless data...
