Design and Manufacture of a Solar-Powered Snow Melter for Making Potable Water on Mt. Rainier.

Creator:: Hopple, Whitney K.
Abstract:: Every Spring and Summer, thousands of climbers attempt to summit Mt. Rainier. Many of them stop at Camp Muir, a base camp at 10,000 feet, where they can use restrooms, camp overnight, or refill water bottles before continuing their climb. Camp Muir currently uses a gas system to melt snow...

Radiation Emissions from Turbulent Diffusion Flames Burning Large Hydrocarbon Fuels

Creator:: Zeuthen, Eric D.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to measure and compare radiation emissions from flames burning large hydrocarbon fuels to assist in understanding how the molecular composition changes radiation emissions. Radiative heat transfer is significant because it is a primary mode of heat transfer for many combustion devices. This study also...

Kinematics of arthropod legs : modeling and measurement

Creator:: Albright, Stephen L.
Abstract:: This thesis presents a method for determining the kinematic geometry of arthropod legs. A kinematic description makes possible the analysis of arthropod leg motion, as a prelude to investigating how various arthropod species are able to negotiate diverse terrains. Such knowledge will aid in design of legged vehicles. The focus...

Generalized Preconditioning to Accelerate Simulations with Large Multiphase Chemical Kinetics Models

Creator:: Walker, Anthony S.
Abstract:: Combustion emissions produced from burning real transportation fuels have many environmental impacts. However, detailed chemistry across multiple phases, time scales, and thermodynamic conditions make predicting combustion emissions challenging. Detailed modeling of the gas phase alone is prohibitively expensive, due to the large size and stiffness of the kinetic models. The...

A risk-informed decision making framework accounting for early-phase conceptual design of complex systems

Creator:: Van Bossuyt, Douglas L.
Abstract:: A gap exists in the methods used in industry and available in academia that prevents customers and engineers from having a voice when considering engineering risk appetite in the dynamic shaping of early-phase conceptual design trade study outcomes. Current methods used in Collaborative Design Centers either collect risk information after...

Achieving Transparency in Human-Collective Systems

Creator:: Roundtree, Karina A.
Abstract:: Collective robotic systems are biologically-inspired and exhibit behaviors found in spatial swarms (e.g., fish), colonies (e.g., ants), or a combination of both (e.g., bees). Collective robotic system popularity continues to increase due to their apparent global intelligence and emergent behaviors. Many applications can benefit from the incorporation of collectives, including...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Propulsion

Creator:: Brown, Sean
Abstract:: There is a growing US interest in UAVs for many applications ranging from agriculture to military. One area of improvement that can be realized in each category is propulsion. Engines with greater efficiency would result in longer mission duration, leading to cost savings and increased usefulness for UAV owners and...

How personality affects creativity in concept ideation

Creator:: Berthelsdorf, Friederich A.
Abstract:: This thesis uses the manuscript option, and consists of a previously-published paper and a paper that has been accepted for publication. Manuscript One details an independent confirmatory study to Choo et al. (2014), which demonstrated that correlations exist between personality type and the outcome of concept ideation methods. This is...
