Seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridge columns constructed with grade 80 reinforcement

Creator:: Link, Tim B.
Abstract:: The research presented in this thesis assessed the use of high strength steel (HSS) reinforcement for use in reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns. HSS is not currently allowed in reinforced concrete bridge columns due to a lack of information on the material characteristics and performance information when used in RC...

Developing Design Model for Cellulose Nanocomposites

Creator:: Shir Mohammadi, Meisam
Abstract:: Today nano scale materials are being used for wide range of applications. One promising topic in nano scale materials is using them for reinforcement of different polymeric materials to reach desirable stiffness properties. The stiffness of these materials is mostly found experimentally because the nanocomposite community lacks a decent analytical...

Female Mold Fabrication Process Development with Pre-Impregnated Composite Materials for Application to Sub-Orbital Rockets

Creator:: Hayden, Muriel A.
Abstract:: The leading edge of a sub-orbital, sounding rocket dictates an aerodynamically optimal profile which is difficult to manufacture. The university level offers no current standard to produce rocket nose cones made with pre-impregnated composites. Of particular interest is the molding technique used to fabricate a nose cone. The focus of...

Wireless Multi-Sensor Patch for Wind Turbine Impact Detection

Creator:: Wilson, Calder
Abstract:: Bird and bat collisions with wind turbines are a problem that needs to be better quantified for its impact to be fully understood. This thesis documents portions of the design of a sensor patch module for use on wind turbines blades to detect impacts caused by birds and bats. This...

Race Car Monocoque Design? A Loaded Question Suspension Kinematics, Loads & Sandwich Panel Optimization Methodologies

Creator:: Gray, Gabriel M.
Abstract:: As designers continue to develop the ability to improve a component or system design relative to any number of metrics, priorities and objectives, the need for advanced methodologies which focus efforts and steer design decisions to best meet the needs of the organization becomes increasingly important. This work develops such...

Simulation Automation for the Evaluation of Formula Student Aerodynamic Concepts

Creator:: Sanchez, Adrian
Abstract:: The design of a competition-winning aero package must consider multiple vehicle attitudes. Aerodynamic concepts simulated in heave, pitch, roll, high-speed yaw, and low-speed yaw to design a stable and predictable aero package. The methodology automates the simulation setup process of five vehicle attitudes. The overall and subsystem force coefficients are...

Development of a Collision Detection Module for Avian and Bat Species on Wind Turbine

Creator:: Davis, Cassandra L.
Abstract:: Renewable energy technology continues to grow in popularity as countries aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Land based and offshore wind turbines are one option for expanding renewable energy sources. However, as wind energy adoption increases, so does the need for enhanced monitoring of wind turbines’ potential effect on local...

A remotely operated, autonomous wave energy converter system

Creator:: Lewis, Timothy M.
Abstract:: The potential for electric energy generation from ocean waves is substantial and much research is being conducted on the conversion process as a renewable, grid-connected, power source. Some of the same attributes that make wave energy harvesting attractive as a grid-connected source also make it attractive as a remote, or...

Fracture properties of balsa wood and balsa core sandwich composites

Creator:: Shir Mohammadi, Meisam
Abstract:: Favorable properties of Balsa wood make it an interesting alternative in a number of applications including thermal insulation or as a lightweight core material in sandwich composites. Increasing use in construction necessitates a better understanding of its mechanical and failure properties. In the present work, mode I and mode II...

Development of an Integrated Generator Power Take-of Strategy using Model Predictive Control (MPC) for Ocean Wave Energy Conversion

Creator:: Sundaram, Srinivasan Subhash
Abstract:: Model Predictive Control (MPC) has previously been investigated on ocean waveenergy converters (WEC) to improve the amount of power captured, while respectingthe system constraints. Previous research done in the same area, focused onbuilding a control scheme by using the knowledge of the past & current statesof the system and predicting...
