Design and testing of an integrated wildlife-wind turbine interactions detection system

Creator:: Flowers, Jeremy Matthew
Abstract:: Bird and bat mortalities caused by interactions with wind turbines is a critical concern that requires addressing for conservation purposes. Deploying a low cost sensor array will be instrumental during site permitting, conducting impact assessments of existing wind farms, and assessing efficacy of wildlife mortality mitigation or wildlife deterrent technologies....

Constrained thin film desorption through membrane separation

Creator:: Thorud, Johnathan D.
Abstract:: A constrained thin film desorption scheme has been experimentally tested to determine the desorption rates for water from an aqueous lithium bromide mixture through a confining membrane. Variable conditions include the inlet concentration, pressure differential across the membrane, and channel height. Desorption takes place in a channel created between two...

Pre-Prototyping Framework: An Early Design Prototyping Methodology for Human-Centered Products and Workplaces

Creator:: Ahmed, Salman
Abstract:: Prototyping is a crucial step in product design and development, but it is also known as the highest sunk cost. The top 20 Research and Development (R&D) department spends 142 billion dollars, yet 40 to 46 percent of this money goes into developing products that cannot even make to the...

Integrated Evaluation of Drinking Water Purification: A Mixed-Method Laboratory and Field Assessment of a Biomass-Powered Water Treatment Technology

Creator:: Burleson, Grace Ellen
Abstract:: The global water crisis is defined as one of the major threats facing humankind over the next decade with over 1 in 10 people lacking access to clean drinking water worldwide. An estimated 1.2 million people pasteurize their drinking water by using boiling as an indicator. Pasteurization is the process...

Environmental Sustainability During the Early Design Phase: Understanding the Uncertainty in the Use Phase, Visualization, and Automating Design Repository Curation

Creator:: Tensa, Melissa
Abstract:: The objective of this research is to support DfX considerations in the early phases of design, particularly Design for the Environment. In order to include DfX considerations, especially early in the design process, there needs to be access to knowledge and information that is usually only applicable further downstream in...

Investigation of the dimensional stability of an ultra-thin film gas/liquid contactor

Creator:: Peterson, Jerrod P.
Abstract:: The use of a permeable membrane to mechanically constrain a film of water with an area of 12 cm² and a thickness of 150 μm in a gas/liquid contactor was investigated. The membrane separated the vapor and liquid phases, and a stiffener plate made from a gas-permeable material was used...

Geometry of Locomotion

Creator:: Ramasamy, Suresh
Abstract:: Many animals and robots move through the world by coupling cyclical changes in shape called gaits to an interaction with the environment. Because mobility is an important aspect of such robots, a key metric when evaluating design and performance of mobile robots is the efficiency of their optimal gaits. The...

Laminate mixing in microscale fractal-like merging channel networks

Creator:: Enfield, Kent E.
Abstract:: A two-dimensional model was developed to predict concentration profiles from passive, laminar mixing of concentration layers formed in a fractal-like merging channel network. Both flat and parabolic velocity profiles were used in the model. A physical experiment was used to confirm the results of the model. Concentration profiles were acquired...

On the Euler-Lagrange Modeling of Particle-laden Turbulent Flows

Creator:: Pakseresht, Pedram
Abstract:: Particle-laden turbulent flows, wherein a large number of small size particles are dispersed in a fluid, are widely encountered in environmental and industrial applications. Understanding their underlying physics, making predictions without performing expensive experiments, and ultimately optimizing the systems carrying such flows, require accurate and robust modelling tools. The Euler-Lagrange...
