Advanced Computational Modeling and Design of Wave Energy and Floating Offshore Wind Energy Technologies

Creator:: Mankle, Hannah L.
Abstract:: Given the immense energy potential of oshore wind and ocean waves, offshore renewable energy can significantly contribute to the renewable energy landscape. Fixed floating wind is already making strides internationally with increased electricity capacity, while floating offshore wind turbines and marine hydrokinetic (MHK) technology have significant potential that can...

The Structural Characteristics of Robustness in Large-Scale Complex Engineered Systems

Creator:: Walsh, Hannah S.
Abstract:: Modern engineered systems are increasingly integrated into society, decentralized, and interconnected. However, scale and complexity create unique challenges in system design, such as emergent behavior and unintended consequences. This work investigates the structural characteristics of robustness in complex engineered systems by identifying patterns of under-recognized vulnerabilities at various levels of...

Modeling Methods for Hydraulic Fracturing Wastewater Treatment Applications

Creator:: O'Hern, Hannah
Abstract:: Modeling of hydraulic fracturing wastewater treatment systems must be very accurate so it can be used for real-time modeling and control of the process. The treatment of hydraulic fracturing wastewater is complex because of the variability of the composition of hydraulic fracturing wastewater. In this work, literature review of hydraulic...

On the Role of Particle Size Distribution in Selective Laser Melting of 316L Stainless Steel

Creator:: Coe, Hannah G.
Abstract:: Selective laser melting (SLM) is an additive manufacturing (AM) process that uses a laser beam to melt metal powder as it is spread onto the build surface using a roller or scraper, followed by rapid solidification to manufacture a 3D component, one layer at a time. In SLM process, density...

Initial Designs for Improving Conversations for People Using Speech Synthesizers

Creator:: Nguyen, Duy M.
Abstract:: This thesis aims to determine the impact that Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices have on social interactions, and then improves the AAC user experience through a user focus design process. AAC devices enable people who cannot speak to communicate with others. Unfortunately, they are tedious to use and make...

Thermal and Aerodynamic Effects of Surface Roughness Patterns on Additive Manufactured Heat Sinks

Creator:: Lundeen, Samuel L.
Abstract:: Breakthroughs in heat sink design are now limited by conventional manufacturing techniques which can only produce basic fin shapes with homogenous surface structuring. Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a potential disruptive technology for heat sink design and other convective heat transfer solutions, as surface properties can be directionally varied to maximize...

A Computational Framework for Resilience-Informed Design

Creator:: Hulse, Daniel E.
Abstract:: It is desirable for complex engineered systems to perform missions efficiently and economically, even when these missions' complex, variable, long-term operational profiles make it likely for hazards to arise. It is thus important to design these systems to be resilient so that they will actively prevent and recover from hazards...

Wave Energy Converter Array Optimization : Array Economic Analysis and Preliminary Results of a Genetic Algorithm Approach Introducing Cost Factors

Creator:: Sharp, Christopher J.
Abstract:: With the need to integrate renewable energy sources into the current energy portfolio and the proximity of many population centers to an ocean coastline, it is pressing that marine energy systems, specifically wave energy converters (WECs), are evaluated as potential solutions for meeting energy needs. In order to best understand...

Model Predictive Control of a Phase Change Process for Wastewater Purification Application

Creator:: Anderson, Kyle S.
Abstract:: In the United States, the oil and gas extraction industry produces large amounts of highly contaminated wastewater that is seldom treated for reuse in other applications. Current wastewater storage and disposal strategies lead to contamination of valuable freshwater resources that can have negative effects on both human communities and the...
