Wood materials and shearwalls of older light-frame residential structures

Creator:: Carroll, Cameron T.
Abstract:: Light-frame construction practices and materials have changed greatly over the past 100 years. Contemporary research has focused on modern construction; thus, we know a great deal about the behavior of modern lightframe buildings under lateral forces. However, there are many light-frame buildings that were built prior to the introduction of...

Wind induced torsional fatigue behavior of truss bridge verticals

Creator:: Keller, Philipp
Abstract:: The Astoria-Megler Bridge is a 6.6 kilometer (4.1 mile) long bridge, connecting Oregon and Washington on US 101, with a continuous steel truss main span of 376 m (1232 ft). It is the second longest main span bridge of this type in the world. Due to vortex shedding, some of...

Will wetlands restoration plans today still be effective tomorrow? Evaluation of performance of potential wetlands for peak flow reduction in future climate scenarios in the Eagle Creek Watershed, IN

Creator:: Walters, Kelli M.
Abstract:: Global climate change is expected to exaggerate the severity of floods and droughts and increase the frequency of extreme streamflow events in the Midwestern United States. Managing these projected impacts poses a major challenge for water resources, conservation, and land use management. Wetlands have been considered as a conservation strategy...

Wheeled Mobility Devices Performance and Passive Securement Systems

Creator:: Mather, Andrea
Abstract:: Wheeled mobility devices (WhMD) pose unique safety risks to users while riding public transportation. Unsecured or improperly secured WhMDs create safety concerns for other transit riders and operators. Tests using accelerometers and visual observations were conducted to understand how WhMD orientation and securement in articulated buses, streetcars, and light rail...

Wave-current interaction induced by standing long waves in the surf zone

Creator:: Phaksopa, Jitraporn
Abstract:: This dissertation has focused on the charateristics of bubbles generated by breaking waves and the feedback of wave-current interaction on the forcing mechanism of low frequency wave especially basin seiching wave. For the first study, Optical image capture observations of breaking waves in a laboratory surf zone are presented. The...

Wave-by-Wave Forecasting via Assimilation of Marine Radar Data

Creator:: Simpson, Alexandra Joyce
Abstract:: A wave-by-wave forecasting system is desired for optimization of wave energy conversion devices and for improving safety of vessel-based marine operations. This study outlines the first validation attempts of a recently developed forecasting system called Wavecast. The forecasting approach uses X-Band marine radar images for data assimilation, then reconstructs and...

Wave-by-wave Forecasting of Sea Surface Elevation for WEC Applications Utilizing NARX Neural Networks

Creator:: Gillespie, Alice
Abstract:: Forecasting of ocean waves over a short duration on the order of tens of seconds was approached with the optimization of wave energy conversion in mind. This study outlines the development of an artificial neural network model, specifically the Nonlinear Autoregressive Network with Exogenous Input (NARX), to predict a wave-by-wave...

Watershed modeling at Yucca Mountain, Nevada

Creator:: Britch, Michael J.
Abstract:: Studies are currently underway to determine the suitability of Yucca Mountain in Nevada as the nation's first high-level nuclear waste repository. Values of net infiltration are required to determine pre-waste emplacement groundwater travel times and the performance of the repository as a waste containment system. The objective of this study...
