Sustainability of Concrete in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Chaimov, Hilary
Abstract:: Reducing the CO2 emitted by the production of cement can greatly reduce the carbon emissions attributable to the built industry. By specifying concrete mixes with lower global warming potentials (GWPs), structural engineers can reduce the carbon emissions of concrete used in the built industry. This thesis uses a cradle-to-gate life...

Evaluating the Feasibility of Mass Timber as a Mainstream Building Material in the US Construction Market: Industry Perception, Cost Competitiveness, and Environmental Performance Analysis

Creator:: Ahmed, Shafayet
Abstract:: Mass timber has been considered as a promising building material because of its structural rigidity, environmental sustainability, and renewability nature. In Europe and Australia, mass timber materials have been used for many different types of construction such as residential, commercial, education, and industrial. However, the construction practitioners in the U.S....

Evaluation of Driver Behavior during Right Turn Maneuvers at Signalized Intersections: Mitigation of Driver-Pedestrian Conflicts with a Right Turn Flashing Yellow Arrow

Creator:: Jashami, Hisham
Abstract:: Accommodating motor vehicles that are turning (left or right) at signalized intersections requires a careful understanding of the safety and efficiency of design and operational variables. Turning vehicles are the primary collision risk for non-motorized road users at signalized intersections. When turning movements need to be controlled, proper driver response...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: comprehensive review of more than 100 scientific and technical articles that relate to the selection of right

Assessing Seismic Rockfall Impacts on Mobility in Transportation Corridors

Creator:: Holtan, Katherine
Abstract:: The climate and geologic conditions of the Pacific Northwest leaves its roads highly susceptible to rockfall hazards. Rockfalls often occur on steep slopes that experience heavy rainfall, groundwater seepage, or strong shaking from earthquakes. The unpredictable nature of these events often creates substantial problems for communities, transportation infrastructure, and the...

The Application of Machine Learning Techniques on Marine Science Models

Creator:: Ellenson, Ashley
Abstract:: A variety of stakeholders require information about marine systems. In the open ocean, pilots of marine vessels require knowledge about environmental conditions for safe passage and route planning. On the coastline, communities rely on information about nearshore dynamics to increase safety from coastal hazards such as nearshore pollutants, coastal erosion,...

Modular Cross Laminated Timber Structures Using Underutilized Ponderosa Pine

Creator:: Bhandari, Sujit
Abstract:: Conflicts and disasters displace millions of populations worldwide. There is a need for rapid and affordable housing to cater to the needs of the displaced and unhoused population. Experience from previous post-disaster responses shows that temporary housing should be rapidly deployable, planned for months to years, and should be environmentally...

Extreme Wave Runup and Runup Variability on Beaches

Creator:: Li, Chuan
Abstract:: Wave runup is an important physical process that affects nearshore sediment transport, coastal erosion, and flooding. Large and unexpected runup events can also be dangerous to beach goers. Extreme runup statistics are essential parameters used in engineering design of marine structures and in coastal management. Although the study of runup...

Reducing Centerline Rumble Strips Effects on Pavement Performance

Creator:: Weaver, Joshua D.
Abstract:: Centerline rumble strips (CLRS) have proven to be a cost-effective safety measure in reducing lane departure crashes. However, there are often unintended consequences associated with the installation of CLRS, particularly in rural mountainous areas or snow zones. These consequences include the accumulation of water and ice on the roadway and...

Advancing Spatial Data Engineering and Analysis: Integrative Approaches with GIS, Statistical Modelling, and Deep Learning

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...

Mitigating Wildfire Impacts on Mobility Using GIS, Fire Modeling, and Operations Simulation

Creator:: Al-Hamadani, Saifaldawlah
Abstract:: Wildfires are a recurring disaster that threatens communities living close to forests and result in significant financial losses along with negative environmental effects, especially with the increase of wildfire season length and intensity due to climate change and increasing urbanization. Wildfire events can also have a significant impact on the...
