Area Yield Crop Insurance and Diversification in Ghana: An Agricultural Household Programming Model
DownloadFall 2016
Although diversification and insurance are acknowledged as important in ameliorating risk, to our knowledge, no empirical study has investigated how the two approaches work in concert in developing countries. Given increasing climate variability and the risks it poses to rain-fed agriculture,...

Automation of design and drafting for wood frame structures and construction material waste minimization
DownloadFall 2009
With the creation and continuous enhancement of Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, innovations in the area of computer modeling for the construction industry have brought numerous benefits in terms of precision, operability, extensibility, and time-cost savings, among others. Nevertheless, the...

Compact and accurate hardware simulation of wireless channels for single and multiple antenna systems
DownloadFall 2009
The accurate simulation of wireless channels is important since it permits the realistic and repeatable performance measurement of wireless systems. While software simulation is a flexible method for testing hardware models, its long-running simulation time can be prohibitive in many scenarios....
