  • Network monitoring with focus on HTTP

    Creator:
    Schmid, Andreas
    Abstract:
    Since its introduction in the early 1990s, the quick growth of the World Wide Web (WWW) traffic raises the question of whether past Local Area Network (LAN) packet traces still reflect the current situation or whether they have become obsolete. For this thesis, several LAN packet traces were obtained by...

  • Evaluation of Materials for Use in Open-Cycle Magnetohydrodynamic Power Generation

    Creator:
    Bowen, Michael S.
    Abstract:
    Recent interest in oxy-fuel combustion for carbon capture, as well as advancements in technologies such as magnetics, materials, and computational modeling has sparked renewed interest in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generation. The increased temperatures of oxy-fuel combustion versus air-fuel combustion poses a challenge in the selection of materials for plasma exposed...

  • Post-wildfire Investigation of Civil Infrastructure Following the 2018 Camp Fire

    Creator:
    Schulze, Stefanie S.
    Abstract:
    Wildland-urban interface (WUI) communities, where forested land boundaries or intermixes with infrastructure, are quickly growing in the US. WUI communities have grown substantially from 1990 to 2010, with an increase of 12.7 million houses and 25 million people. Wildfires encroaching on WUI communities can cause damage to both above ground...

  • Steady-State Diffusion in a Spatially Varying Porous Medium

    Creator:
    Ferrero, Peter T.
    Abstract:
    Heterogeneous porous material represents a persistent challenge in the field of engineering. Microscale properties such as the porosity and microchannel torturosity significantly control the macroscale transport characteristics of homogeneous porous medium. Additional complexity is introduced when these small-scale features vary in space. Examples of heterogeneous porous systems include artificial body...

  • Isotopic and Geochemical Signatures of Mantle and Crustal Contributions in Rhyolites from Okataina and Taupo volcanoes, New Zealand

    Creator:
    Rocco, Nicole D.
    Abstract:
    Silicic caldera-forming eruptions are some of the largest and most destructive volcanic eruptions known, and present significant local and global hazards. The underlying processes within crustal magma plumbing systems that lead to the accumulation and eruption of large volumes of evolved magma remain enigmatic, yet there is broad consensus that...

  • Changing Storms and Snowpack Fate in the Western United States

    Creator:
    Hu, Jyun-Yi Michelle
    Abstract:
    Cold-season storms are responsible for generating most of the snow that accumulates in mountainous watersheds across the western United States, but with overwhelming evidence of warming temperature trends, this seasonal snowpack is at risk for melt, The vast majority of snow trend studies utilize undifferentiated air temperature records – these...

  • Lamprey of the Goose Lake Basin: A Multi-Scale Habitat & Distribution Analysis

    Creator:
    Dickey, Jacob C.
    Abstract:
    Two ecologically important lamprey species found in the endorheic Goose Lake Basin face conservation threats; however, relatively little is known about their habitat needs or spatial distribution. Lamprey and their habitat are often found to be patchy; to evaluate these relationships for the lamprey in this basin, I utilized a...

  • Mass transfer of urea, creatinine and vitamin B-12 in a microchannel based membrane separation unit

    Creator:
    Warner-Tuhy, Alana
    Abstract:
    Micro energy and chemical systems (MECS) are microfluidic systems where energy and chemical processes can be intensified by decreasing the characteristic length. This project focused on bulk fluid processing using MECS technology to intensify the mass transport of a dialyzer. The objective of this project was to design a model...

    Creator:
    Schaffer, Ruby Elaine
    Abstract:
    Concern over the apparent lack of education for personal and family living for high school students prompted this study to discover the beliefs of British Columbia Home Economics teachers regarding classes for Grade 12 students. A questionnaire was constructed to obtain the opinions and beliefs of Home Economics teachers concerning...

  • Target fragmentation in the interaction of 12-16 MEV/NUCLEON ³²S with ¹⁶⁵HO

    Creator:
    Casey, Coreen
    Abstract:
    The target fragment production cross sections, angular distributions, and range distributions have been measured for the interaction of 12-16 A MeV³² S with ¹⁶⁵Ho. The fragment isobaric yield distribution and the moving frame angular distributions have been deduced from the data. Symmetry properties of the moving frame angular distributions have...
