Testing Continuity between Versions 5.3.9 and 6.3.1 of Plaque Simulator for Planning Eye Plaque Brachytherapy Cases

Creator:: Polsdofer, Elizabeth M.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to examine the challenges of accepting and commissioning a new treatment planning system for eye plaque brachytherapy. Currently Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) utilizes v5.3.9 of the Plaque Simulator software to plan all of its eye plaque brachytherapy cases. However, v5.3.9 is no...

Steady State Modeling of the Minimum Critical Core of the Transient Reactor Test Facility

Creator:: Alberti, Anthony L.
Abstract:: With the advent of next generation reactor systems and new fuel designs, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has identified the need for the resumption of transient testing of nuclear fuels. The DOE has decided that the Transient Reactor Test Facility (TREAT) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is best suited...

OME : A Framework for Running Spatially Explicit System Dynamics Models

Creator:: Wingo, Patrick C.
Abstract:: The Open Modeling Environment (OME) is a tool developed to address some known shortcomings in ecological System Dynamics (SD) modeling research. OME provides a common set of methods for interacting directly with spatial information, reducing the need for modelers to create their own methods for doing so. The environment is...

Rank and linear correlation differences in simulation and other applications

Creator:: Agahi, Maryam
Abstract:: Monte Carlo simulation is used to quantify and characterize uncertainty in a variety of applications such as financial/engineering economic analysis, and project management. The dependence or correlation between the random variables modeled can also be simulated to add more accuracy to simulations. However, there exists a difference between how correlation...

Fuzzy logic for improved dilemma zone identification : a simulator study

Creator:: Moore, Derek
Abstract:: The Type-II dilemma zone refers to the segment of roadway approaching an intersection where drivers have difficulty deciding to stop or proceed through at the onset of the circular yellow (CY) indication. Signalized intersection safety can be improved when the dilemma zone is correctly identified and steps are taken to...

Simulated response of ecosystem processes to climate change in northern California and western Nevada

Creator:: McGlinchy, Maureen C.
Abstract:: In order to investigate potential climate impacts on landscape-scale ecosystem processes, I implemented a dynamic general vegetation model (DGVM) over a large domain in northern California and western Nevada on a rectangular grid of ca. 800-meter spatial resolution. I used 100 years of observed, monthly climate and nine future climate...

Pressure effects on density-difference driven stratified flow : CFD model of DCC event in the HTGR

Creator:: Magnusson, Jill E.
Abstract:: In a Modular High Temperature Gas Reactor (MHTGR), the Depressurized Conduction Cooldown (DCC) event can be separated into three distinct stages: 1) depressurization, 2) air ingress and, 3) natural circulation. During normal operations, the HTGR utilizes forced convection to move the helium coolant through the reactor core. Thus, during normal...

CAM : a new Circuit Augmentation Method for modeling interconnects and passive components

Creator:: Kolstad, Joel W.
Abstract:: Contemporary circuit design involves significant computer-based simulation, calling for a balance between circuit model accuracy and simulation run time. Traditionally, circuit modelers concentrated on producing either (1) physically-based models, where each element in the model correlates to a physically meaningful aspect of the device being modeled or (2) mathematically-based "macromodels,"...

Laboratory observations of tsunami runup on a complex 3D bathymetry using PIV

Creator:: Ichikawa, Shingo
Abstract:: This thesis presents the details of a large-scale laboratory experiment to study the runup velocity on a complex 3D bathymetry. The PIV measurements including the instrumental setup, the recording procedure, and the image processing are presented. Tsunami inundation directly affects the coastal population and is one of the most important...

Effectiveness of using two and three-parameter distributions in place of "best-fit distributions" in discrete event simulation models of production lines

Creator:: Sharma, Akash
Abstract:: This study presents the results of using common two or three-parameter "default" distributions in place of "best fit distributions" in simulations of serial production lines with finite buffers and blocking. The default distributions used instead of the best-fit distribution are chosen such that they are non-negative, unbounded, and can match...
