Not Good Enough: Ironic Efficiency in Automated-Aided Signal-Detection

Creator:: Munoz Gomez Andrade, Fernando
Abstract:: During applied signal-detection (e.g., airport-baggage screening) human operators can be assisted in their decision-making process by automated devices. Automation implementation is aimed at increasing performance relative to unaided levels. Generally, this intended effect is empirically observed. However, operators consistently fall short of optimal levels of aided performance, indicating suboptimal aid-use...

Family-Teacher Relationships and Child Engagement in Early Care and Education

Creator:: Lewis, Hillary R.
Abstract:: The interactions young children have with teachers, peers, and tasks in early care and education (ECE) settings support development of social and academic skills. The degree to which families and teachers partner to support children’s development may contribute to child engagement. The current study aims to expand our understanding of...

Assisting Sustainability Analysis of Forest Bioenergy Supply Chains using Mathematical Optimization

Creator:: Sadeghi, Javad
Abstract:: Changes in the global climate and forest management practices have given rise to increasing numbers and severity of wildfires. More than five million acres burned in the United States in 2017, while in Canada 7.4 million acres burned. In particular, an increasing amount of dead woody biomass is a key...

Environmental Stressors Influence Fabaceae Seedling Development

Creator:: Gerber, Kaitlin A.
Abstract:: Sites in need of restoration typically have one or more environmental factors that limit seedling establishment; identifying ecophysiological responses to environmental stressors can be advantageous in growing seedlings able to overcome such constraints on survival. To maximize survival after outplanting, seedlings should be grown in a manner that considers both...

Exploring the Anaerobic Co-digestion of Food Waste, Brewery Waste, and Fats, Oils, and Greases through Biomethane Potential Testing and Response Surface Methodology

Creator:: Liberman, Madalyn R.
Abstract:: Food waste (FW), brewery waste (BW), and fats, oils, and greases (FOG), are prevalent waste streams in municipalities across the country, particularly in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). Anaerobic digestion (AD), the microbial-mediated transformation of organic waste into methane-rich biogas, offers a sustainable, energy-generating, waste management solution for these wastes. Anaerobic...

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...

The Processing and Microstructures of 309L Stainless Steel Clad onto Carbon Steel with Wire-fed Directed Energy Deposition

Creator:: Bozeman, Scott C.
Abstract:: Directed energy deposition and laser cladding technologies are suitable advanced manufacturing techniques for applying corrosion-resistant claddings to large carbon steel components. In this work, we clad 309L stainless steel wire onto carbon steel substrates and examine the effects of cladding parameters (laser power and travel speed) on metallurgical bonding, composition,...

Simulating Soot Formation and Growth using a Parallel Coupled Monte Carlo Method

Creator:: Peters, Jordan
Abstract:: Small hydrocarbon particles such as soot and soot precursors pose a serious threat to human health and Earth's climate. Understanding the mechanisms by which soot particles form and grow is the first step to reducing the prevalence of these particles. Computational simulations are used to investigate combusting systems which are...

Evaluation of Stress Corrosion Cracking of 316L Stainless Steel in FLiNaK Using the Slow Strain Rate Technique

Creator:: Quintana, Xavier A.
Abstract:: Molten salts have been targeted as a promising coolant for next generation reactors due to their high boiling point, heat capacity, and thermal conductivity. Despite these benefits, molten salt systems present unique materials compatibility issues, highlighted by the aggressive corrosion attack and dealloying typically seen on materials in these environments....

Leveraging multi-sensor time series datasets to map short- and long-term forest disturbances and drivers of change in the Colombian Andes

Creator:: Murillo Sandoval, Paulo Jose
Abstract:: The spatial distribution of forest disturbance is commonly calculated using a satellite imagery-driven bi- or tri-temporal change analysis. Working in Colombia’s Cordillera de los Picachos National Natural Park – a region of consistent cloud cover and dramatic topographic relief – a change assessment with such infrequent observations cannot capture long-term...
