Exploring Volcano-Tectonic Connections in Cascadia – Temporal Linkages between Tephra Deposition and Megathrust Earthquakes

Creator:: Gutierrez, Joel C.
Abstract:: Explosively erupting volcanoes and megathrust earthquakes (Mw 8+ magnitude) occur at subduction zones and adjacent volcanic arcs. Volcanic eruptions are observed occurring close in time to megathrust earthquakes in the historical record from at least the 18th century CE to present in locations globally, including Japan in 1707 CE (Chesley...

Role of the Sisters Fault Zone in the Separation of Siletzia from the Cascadia Backarc

Creator:: Mark-Moser, MacKenzie
Abstract:: Oblique subduction of the Juan de Fuca plate beneath the North American plate characterizes the tectonic setting of the Pacific Northwest. North American plate deformation at the latitude of central Oregon consists of the clockwise-rotation of the Siletzia block in the forearc and the extensional Basin and Range province in...

A Genetic Algorithm Approach to Imaging the Internal Southern San Andreas Fault Zone

Creator:: Reinhard, Hannah R.
Abstract:: The southern San Andreas fault (SSAF) is the fault segment with the highest 30-year probability of causing a moderate to large magnitude earthquake in California, yet key structural characteristics of the fault remain unconstrained, particularly in the Coachella Valley where the fault splits into the Banning (BF) and Mission Creek...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: also grateful to the other members of my committee, Dr. Erin Pettit, Dr. Adam Schultz, and Dr. Hisham

SpaceLab, an N-Body Particle-Particle Ballistic Collision Simulation Tool with Applications in Celestial Body Dynamics

Creator:: Guidos, Job
Abstract:: This thesis conveys the key technical features and scientific applications of a particle-particle ballistic simulation tool (SpaceLab) as well as a high level overview of experiments it was designed for and executed on. SpaceLab simulates spherical particle interactions under any combination of self-gravity, sliding friction, rolling friction, Van-Der-Waals (VDW) cohesion...

Crowdsourcing via Pairwise Co-occurrences: Identifiability and Algorithms

Creator:: Ibrahim, Shahana
Abstract:: Crowdsourcing is a popular paradigm to address the high demands for labeled data in big data deluge. It aims to produce accurate labels by eﬀectively integrating noisy, non-expert labeling from crowdsourced workers (annotators). The machine learning community has been studying eﬀective crowdsourcing methods for many years, and many models and...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Impact of Igneous Mineralogy on the Composition and Metabolic Function of Microbial Biofilms in a Thermal Suboceanic Crustal Aquifer

Creator:: Smith, Amy R.
Abstract:: Igneous oceanic crust encompasses ~60% of Earth’s surface and is composed of basalt glass and mafic, ultramafic, and felsic minerals. A vast marine aquifer lies within the crust, exchanging geochemically altered fluids with seawater from the overlying ocean at ridge crests, flanks, seamounts, and outcrops where permeable crust is exposed....

Micro in-lab grid integration of a wave energy converter

Creator:: Okuda, Jeremy S.
Abstract:: Ocean wave energy has great potential to develop into a strong and reliable form of renewable energy. As the technology develops, more wave energy converters will be grid interconnected and the variable nature of the ocean will begin to influence the stability of the electrical grid system. There are many...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Design techniques for high efficiency LED drivers

Creator:: Bang, Sarvesh Jagdish
Abstract:: The increasing popularity of cellular phones with integrated cameras in the recent past has led to major improvements in its image quality. However, integration of new features, such as mobile email, video streaming, MP3 etc. tend to put the limitation on image quality as camera phone designers struggle to manage...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: my academic career. I would also like to thank Prof. Un-Ku Moon, Ted Brekken, and Adam Schultz for

Advancing Power Grid Computing: Analysis and Synthesis of Wide-Area Data, Distributed Real-Time Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulations, and Machine Learning for Event Detection

Creator:: Hagan, Travis
Abstract:: Global Positioning Systems have allowed for precise timing of power system measurements over wide areas. This newly found capability has the potential to provide much greater insight into the operation of the power system and its response to contingencies, but few analytical techniques currently exist that provide enough robustness and...

A Generation Prioritization Method for Power System Restoration with Renewable Resources

Creator:: Mate, Adam
Abstract:: The electrical grid is a key component of the Nation's critical infrastructure. Its continuous and reliable operation is of vital importance; any system-wide disruption would have a debilitating impact on crucial services, public health and safety, the economy, and the national security of the United States. High-impact low-frequency events pose...
