  • Assessing the Maturity of Industrial Engineering as an Engineering Discipline

    Creator:
    Murphy, Thomas W.
    Abstract:
    Industrial Engineering is a broad discipline, with a wide range of definitions for the field and the knowledge areas that make up its parts. A conceptual gap exists between the definition of the field of Industrial Engineering and the definitions of each of these parts. To facilitate advancement of the...

  • Systemic barriers encountered by Latinas in engineering

    Creator:
    Coto, Paula
    Abstract:
    Latinas in engineering face discrimination on the intersectionality of their two identities, Latinx and woman. The barriers that happen to them as an indirect effect of previous or existing institutional systems of oppression are called systemic barriers. Coming from the lens of four subjects, in a ranking of the barriers...

  • Impacts of Environmentally Responsible Engineering (ERE) Concepts in a New First Year Engineering Program

    Creator:
    Smith, Madelyn
    Abstract:
    This full research paper explores two factors of increasing importance for first-year university engineering curricula: sustainability and diversity. Over the past fifteen years, many universities in the United States have adjusted their engineering programs in response to these two values expressed by industry, professional organizations, and the Accreditation Board for...

  • The Impacts of a New Programming Course in a First-Year Engineering Experience

    Creator:
    Garcia Ramirez, Jessica
    Abstract:
    This research paper describes the impacts of a new programming class on first-year, non-CS engineering students. In the spring of 2021, the College of Engineering at Oregon State University piloted a new programming course that will be required of all engineering majors in the following academic years. We used the...

  • The Effects of Modularity on Cascading Failures in Complex Engineering Systems

    Creator:
    Parker, Elizabeth M.
    Abstract:
    To design engineering systems that have improved reliability, it is important to understand what kind of system faults they will be susceptible to. Mitigation strategies are important to ensuring the performance of these engineering systems. Understanding how the modularity of complex engineering systems affects the risk of devastating failures such...

  • When Normal Distributions Fail: An Application of Feature Engineering to YouTube Videos

    Creator:
    Replinger, Ian R.
    Abstract:
    YouTube has turned creating, watching, and interacting with videos into a mainstream activity and has substantial impact on modern society as the most popular video sharing site in the world. However, there is a lack of published research using statistically designed experiments which can aid content creators in making and...

  • An Improved Chemical Kinetic Model Reduction in pyMARS for Liquid Propellants

    Creator:
    Moore, Cailin J.
    Abstract:
    The aerospace industry uses chemical kinetic models when designing propulsion systems to acquire specific details about the rate of chemical reactions, heat release, and combustion stability. These models, however, are too large and stiff to be useful as they can take weeks to run computations on. The pyMARS python package...

  • 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...

  • Playing by the Rules: A Formal Specification of BoGL’s Loops and Type System

    Creator:
    Grejuc, Alex
    Abstract:
    BoGL is a programming language created for the purpose of computer science education that is specific to the domain of board games. Although there is a language grammar and an existing implementation that is currently used by students, a complete and formal language standard does not yet exist. In the...

  • Open, online, interactive visualizations for learning about Gaussian mixture models

    Creator:
    Allen, Stuart
    Abstract:
    We construct a website to explain how Gaussian mixture models can be optimized using the expectation maximization algorithm. Previous free, online material on this process has been extremely limited. All sources surveyed failed to entirely describe our identified criteria for an in-depth description and useful visualizations. After surveying a variety...
