  • Scratch Explorer : a tool for assisting end-user program comprehension of animation scripts

    Creator:
    Zhang, Yan
    Abstract:
    Visual programming languages (VPLs) have been widely used to support end-user programming. However, end users are still not able to reuse code as actively as professional programmers, even when given abundant resources such as a large VPL program repository. One reason may be that current VPL development environments lack features...

  • Features for debugging in a visual dataflow environment for end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Ganesan, Laxmi
    Abstract:
    Debugging, an integral part of software development, is difficult for end-user programmers, especially in the case of complex programs. The process of isolating errors is time consuming without the help of debugging support provided by the tool. For example, the visual programming tool LondonTube supports creation of custom mobile-cloud-web applications,...

  • Dual Purpose Utilization of Titanium Alloy Bars for Impressed Current Cathodic Protection and Near Surface Mounted Retrofit in Reinforced Concrete Beams

    Creator:
    Slawinski, Amanda K.
    Abstract:
    Many older reinforced concrete bridges and buildings in the United States are considered deficient due to past design codes that are not conservative, increased loading, and deterioration of structural components. Deterioration is most commonly caused by corrosion, which reduces the steel cross sectional area and damages the concrete cross section....

    Creator:
    Vats, Aashwin
    Abstract:
    With the overwhelming number of open-source resources available online, the developer community is always looking to expand their knowledge. Collaborative development has been recognized as an efficient method of learning by several students and industry professionals. Hence, developers seek to obtain more hands-on experience while collaborating with people of similar...

  • Seismic Performance of Square Reinforced Concrete Columns Retrofitted with Titanium Alloy Bars

    Creator:
    Lostra, Mackenzie M. W.
    Abstract:
    Large numbers of reinforced concrete (RC) bridges were built in the past that are now considered seismically deficient. The structural members most likely to be considered deficient are the supporting columns. Typical deficient columns contain inadequate transverse reinforcement and poorly detailed lap splice lengths above the foundation. Insufficient lap splice...

  • Evaluation of Cycling Behavior: Factors that Influence Bicyclists’ Comprehension, Comfort, and Stress

    Creator:
    Cobb, Douglas P.
    Abstract:
    Travel demand has increased due to population growth, increase of vehicle ownership, and development patterns resulting in greater levels of congestion, pollution, and crash frequency. One approach to demand management is to increase the share of trips made by bicycles. With the increase in bicycling rates, there is a critical...

  • Automated web-based analysis and visualization of spatiotemporal data

    Creator:
    Keon, Dylan B.
    Abstract:
    Most data are associated with a place, and many are also associated with a moment in time, a time interval, or another linked temporal component. Spatiotemporal data (i.e., data with elements of both space and time) can be used to assess movement or change over time in a particular location,...

    Creator:
    Krivova, Maria
    Abstract:
    Geospatial data analysis is a multifaceted discipline encompassing the collection, processing, and visualization of diverse datasets. It models and delineates the interactions of people, objects, and phenomena within geographical spaces and predicts patterns based on the relationships between different locations. Despite significant advancements in geospatial data engineering and analytics over...

    Creator:
    O'Banion, Matthew S.
    Abstract:
    The capabilities of modern three-dimensional (3D) capture technology such as laser scanning and image-based 3D reconstruction are well suited to enhance the practice and research of civil engineering. However, given the often-overwhelming focus placed on the incredible capabilities of these tools and techniques, it is important to investigate the limitations...

    Creator:
    Almadhoun, Eman
    Abstract:
    In computer science, learning abstract fundamental programming concepts requiring students to understand memory management can be very difficult and lead to misunderstandings that carry on into advanced topics. This is especially true in data structures with abstract data types. Understanding how novice students think and reason about data structures is...
