Abstract:: Evolve & Resequence (E&R) experiments subject laboratory populations to environments controlled by investigators, who then document the phenotypic and genomic changes that take place over many generations. These experiments provide powerful tools for testing of a wide variety of evolutionary questions, especially questions about the nature of adaptive traits. While...

Abstract:: This dissertation studies the development of the design procedures for Steel Slit Panel Frame (SSPF). The (SSPF) system is a seismic force-resisting system (SFRS) with ductile behavior and good energy dissipation up to 5\% to 7\% lateral drift that acting as seismic fuses. The current design guidelines provided valuable information...

Abstract:: The primary goal of this research was to determine the concentration and composition of nucleotides, as nucleoside monophosphates and nucleobases, in the underutilized reproductive organs (milt and roe) of Alaska pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) and yellowfin sole (Limanda aspera). Changes in concentrations of these nucleotides and nucleotide analogs were observed with...

Abstract:: Wildland-urban interface (WUI) communities, where forested land boundaries or intermixes with infrastructure, are quickly growing in the US. WUI communities have grown substantially from 1990 to 2010, with an increase of 12.7 million houses and 25 million people. Wildfires encroaching on WUI communities can cause damage to both above ground...

Abstract:: Mass timber is emerging as a viable form of construction around the world in new markets for wood buildings. The entrance into these markets has driven the demand for more knowledge to enable designs alongside other structural materials such as steel and reinforced concrete. Large, in-plane tests on cross-laminated timber...

Abstract:: Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) has been of significant research interest worldwide over the past several decades because of its variety of applications in both offshore and coastal engineering. Researchers analyzing FSI systems rely heavily on experimental tests in model scale in laboratories or large-scale sea trials. However, these tests are often...
