A Functional Systems Approach to Comprehensive Emergency Management

Creator:: Al-AbdRabbuh, Sami
Abstract:: Both researchers and practitioners in fields related to emergency management (EM) use a variety of frameworks for different purposes including analysis, learning, and operations. Despite existing approaches in EM, such as comprehensive emergency management (CEM), the research community has been urged to construct a general normative theory for emergency management...

Sustainability assessment during early product development : the manufacturing case and the use case

Creator:: Seyedmahmoudighomi, Seyedhamed
Abstract:: The research explored in this thesis helps provide a better understanding of efforts that have been undertaken to more precisely calculate environmental impacts and human health risks, such as energy consumption, carbon footprint, and toxicity, to support environmental sustainability assessment of products. The work is comprised of two research objectives,...

Growth, Characterization, and Application of Antimony Sulfide Thin Films via a Novel Microreactor Assisted Nanomaterial Deposition for Solid State Batteries

Creator:: Chun, Bryan H.
Abstract:: The continuous development of higher performing battery materials has emerged in parallel with the development of new manufacturing processes. Nanomaterials are one solution to addressing the cycling and performance challenges that limit existing battery cells. However, many of the methods used today for nanomaterial synthesis are high temperature batch methods...

Design for Clean Technology Adoption: Application of Discrete Choice Analysis and the Theory of Planned Behavior for Development Engineering

Creator:: Pakravan, Mohammad H.
Abstract:: Clean technologies can address multiple challenges associated with climate change, environmental protection, and human health. However, the impact desired by introduction of such technologies is achievable only if new options effectively replace inefficient, conventional practices. This ‘design for adoption’ requires understanding of user motivations, associated beliefs, context of use, and...

The Influence of Fuel Characteristics on Smoldering Behavior through Porous Fuels

Creator:: Ross, Andrew H.
Abstract:: Smoldering can play a dangerous role in the ignition and spread of wildfires. Naturally occurring fuels consist of multiple layers of organic materials with varying particle sizes due to differences in decomposition stages with fuel depth, yet the influence of particle size on burning behavior is poorly understood. Previous research...

Reaction Pathways of Oxo-Hydroxo Group 5 Clusters to Metal Oxide Thin Films

Creator:: Mansergh, Ryan H.
Abstract:: Oxo-hydroxo Group 5 metal clusters are an untapped resource to study and advance aqueous solution processing of metal oxide thin films. The tetramethylammonium (TMA) hexatantalate salt (TMA6[H2Ta6O19]) yields dense Ta2O5 films (~95% of the bulk ß-Ta2O5 density) with atomically smooth surfaces (<4 Å root mean square surface roughness). This same...

Early Design Evaluation of See-Through Automotive A-pillar Concepts Using Digital Human Modeling and Mixed Reality Techniques

Creator:: Srinivasan, Sriram
Abstract:: Pillars in modern vehicles provide structural integrity by surrounding the windows and joining the roof with the frame. Although they protect the driver and passengers, A-pillars also create obstruction zones by limiting drivers' forward field of view leading to unforeseeable accidents or mishaps. We argue that providing a better pillar...

The effect of acquisition and analysis automation failure in a low-fidelity multitasking system

Creator:: Secor, William R.
Abstract:: Research into the effect of automation on human multitasking performance is primarily focused on Decision Automation (a machine suggesting a certain course of action for a human operator to take) and Action Automation (a machine carrying out a certain course of action on behalf of the human operator) while Acquisition...

Using Digital Human Modeling to Evaluate and Improve Car Pillar Design: A Proof of Concept and Design of Experiments

Creator:: Mellon, Taylor R. P.
Abstract:: Considering human factors in early engineering design stages can improve expensive late stage processes, facilitate user safety, improve product quality and help reduce the need for physical prototyping. Currently, car pillar design (the vertical pillars between windows which connect the roof and car body) provide safety for the passengers in...
