Benefits of Geographic Information Systems for State and Regional Ocean Management

Creator:: Sowers, Derek C.
Abstract:: The current and potential benefits of using geographic information systems (GIS) to support state-level and regional-scale ocean management in the United States are evaluated. Specifically, the role of GIS in facilitating improved integration of management strategies for a variety of resource use issues across multiple management jurisdictions is examined, along...

Binary stochastic media transport : a coupled mesh based method

Creator:: Barnett, Nathan A.
Abstract:: Transport in a binary stochastic media has been an area of interest for many applications over the past three decades. Many different methods have been attempted, most based on the Levermore-Pomraning coupled transport model. However, this method has never been able to correctly solve problems where a large amount of...

Extending the applicability of implicit Monte Carlo Diffusion : frequency dependence and variance reduction using the difference formulation

Creator:: Cleveland, Mathew A.
Abstract:: The intent of this work is to extend Implicit Monte Carlo Diffusion (IMD)[Gen. 2001] to account for frequency dependence and to incorporate the difference formulation[Szo. 2005] as a source manipulation variance reduction technique. This work shows the derivation of the probabilities and the associated proofs which govern the frequency dependent...

Hypervitaminosis A : effects on reproduction and interactions with pyrrolizidine alkaloids

Creator:: Moghaddam, Mehran Fallah
Abstract:: In the first experiment the minimum dietary toxic levels of vitamin A were determined in pregnant rabbits over three parities. The treatments consisted of basal diet plus 10,000, 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000 IU/Kg added vitamin A. The basal diet was formulated to be free of vitamin A and beta-carotene; rice...

Collective Aquifer Governance: It’s the Water, and a “Hole” Lot More

Creator:: Wiley, Jakob Stevan
Abstract:: Aquifers are a whole lot more than groundwater. Aquifers are composed of many kinds of different resources, including storage space, geothermal energy, surface interactions, and various minerals. However, unlike these resources, groundwater is treated as something different. The transition from groundwater management to groundwater governance expanded the role of social...

Radiation health and safety of a radioisotope powered micro fuel cell

Creator:: Maloy, Kyle James
Abstract:: Radiation health and safety issues associated with a plutonium-powered radioisotope powered micro fuel cell (RMFC) were evaluated. The RMFC converts water into its component elements by radiolysis and the resultant hydrogen is used to power the fuel cell. This device is under development and is being considered for possible deployment...

Investigation of a hybrid quasi-diffusion/Monte Carlo method for solving multigroup criticality problems in slab geometry

Creator:: Robinson, Bethany R.
Abstract:: A hybrid Quasi-diffusion/Monte Carlo Method for solving multigroup criticality problems in slab geometry was investigated. Analog Monte Carlo was used to calculate functionals (Eddington Factors) that were then used in solution of the quasi-diffusion equations. The hybrid method was shown to accurately and precisely predict the k-eigenvalue and fission source...

A Study of Artificial Neural Networks for the Solution of Multi-group Slab Geometry Discrete Ordinates Transport Problems with Material Heterogeneity

Creator:: Kumar, Ravi
Abstract:: In this thesis, we expand the scope of a previously introduced Artificial Neural Network (ANN) method to solve the slab-geometry discrete ordinates (S$_N$) neutron transport equations. Specifically, we extend the method to energy-dependent (multi-group) fixed source problems involving heterogeneous media and more general boundary conditions - vacuum and incident flux...

Forensic Hydrogeography : Assessing Groundwater Arsenic Concentrations and Testing Methods within the Harney Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Smitherman, Lauren L.
Abstract:: Harney County contains defining characteristics of regions containing arsenic within the groundwater such as its location in the western United States, unique closed basin geography, complex geology, and seasonal groundwater level fluctuations. Confirmation of arsenic concentrations above the Maximum Contaminant Level Drinking Water Standard of 10 μg/L has been observed...
