The Art of Reducing Coastal Hazard Complexity: Coupling Physics and Probability to Understand Extremes, Variability, and Climate-dependence

Creator:: Anderson, Dylan L.
Abstract:: Coastal hazards are the result of numerous physical processes cumulatively causing water levels to flood and erode the land. The waves, storm surges, tides, and run-off contributing to elevated water levels are each the product of chaotic and random weather patterns. These stochastic weather patterns dissipate energy in Earth's climate...

An Evaluation of the Random-Parameter and Latent Class Methods for Heavy Vehicle Injury Severity and Crash Rate Analysis : An Idaho Case Study by Roadway Classification

Creator:: Anderson, Jason
Abstract:: This thesis provides a comparison of advanced econometric frameworks to account for unobserved factors in crash reported data (also referred to as unobserved heterogeneity) while identifying contributing factors by roadway classification for heavy vehicle injury severity and crash rates. The presented thesis provides two manuscripts that expand the literature regarding...

Evaluating climate change induced coastal flood impacts to San Diego Bay Naval Infrastructure - a hybrid statistical dynamical modeling approach

Creator:: Anderson, Tyler P.
Abstract:: This study utilizes probabilistic surrogate modeling techniques around San Diego Bay with an emphasis on naval infrastructure and operations to evaluate the impact of five global mean sea level rise scenarios (GMSLR). Spatially continuous total water levels (TWLs) are combined with a digital elevation model (DEM) of the region to...

The effects of nail bending-yield stress and biological deterioration on the cyclic performance of shearwalls

Creator:: Anderson, Erin N.
Abstract:: Key parts of the lateral force resisting system in wood-frame buildings are the shearwafls and the connections. The connections in wooden buildings are the primary source of ductility and energy dissipation; these are essential properties when buildings are exposed to lateral forces, such as wind and earthquakes. Shearwall design is...

Reassessment of Grading Criteria with Respect to the Flexural Properties of Douglas-fir Crossarms

Creator:: Anderson, Christopher H.
Abstract:: Wood plays a key role in modern electrical infrastructure; crossarms and power poles utilize the high strength to weight ratio, availability and low cost of wood to facilitate the access of power to millions of Americans. However, wood presents a variety of challenges as a material. In structural applications, one...

Unobserved Heterogeneity and Spatial Correlation: Statistical and Econometric Analyses of Heavy-Vehicle Hard Braking and Crash Frequency by Crash Type

Creator:: Anderson, Jason C.
Abstract:: This dissertation provides a comparison of statistical and econometric frameworks, using a previously unused freight data source, to study crash frequency by crash type and heavy-vehicle hard braking in Oregon. Hard braking can serve as a proxy for several factors, one of which is safety. Therefore, with the hard braking...

Improving Safety of the Platform-Train-Interface Through Operational and Technical Mitigation Strategies

Creator:: Anderson, Dylan
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to provide background information and examples of best practices relating to platform-train-interface (PTI) safety. The research and information obtained for this manuscript has been in association with the A-40 project funded by the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) of the National Academies. The purpose...

An Integrated Conceptual Framework for Sustainable Public Housing

Creator:: Sharafeddin, Asma
Abstract:: Public housing (PH) provides a substantial portion of the housing in both developed and less developed countries, and the demand for it is increasing. The PH projects, however, are facing many challenges that are affecting their performance and cause their failures. The United States has demolished large portions of their...

Consolidation characteristics of sand-clay mixtures

Creator:: Anderson, Donald G. (Donald Gordon)
Abstract:: Combinations of cohesive and cohesionless soils are often encountered when evaluating the engineering properties of soils. The stress-volume characteristics of the mixed soil are found to vary according to the proportion of each component. If the cohesive soil composes more than a certain fraction of the material, the magnitude of...

The Statistical and Econometric Analyses of the Impacts of Covid-19 on Truck Driver Behavior

Creator:: Velasquez, Brianna N.
Abstract:: The outbreak of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the restrictions implemented in response to it (e.g., stay-at-home orders, social distancing mandates, business closures) had unprecedented effects on the trucking industry. The pandemic prompted the first significant overhaul of federal hours-of-service (HOS) regulations in over 15 years. Prior to the...
