  • Precision Medicine for the Intervertebral Disc: Image Processing and Computational Modeling of Disc Degeneration to Inform Patient-Specific Therapies

    Creator:
    Ahrens, Sonia R.
    Abstract:
    The human intervertebral disc is a deceptively simple structure which plays an essential role in human movement. Even slight changes to the disc microenvironment can have far reaching consequences, particularly when these changes result in disc degeneration and herniation. Degeneration is increasingly tied to lower back pain; better understanding this...

  • Sonification as a pathway to knowledge

    Creator:
    Fitch, Russell Alan
    Abstract:
    This paper explores the use of sonification, the conversion of data into sound, to convey the significance of SARS-COV-2 and its global impact. It emphasizes sonification as a valuable tool for making complex data accessible, particularly in high school education. Sonification, an interdisciplinary field, leverages the human auditory system's pattern...

  • Living with earthquakes in the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Yeats, Robert S.
    Abstract:
    In this expanded new edition of Living with Earthquakes, Robert Yeats, a leading authority on earthquakes in California and the Pacific Northwest, describes the threat posed by the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a great earthquake fault which runs for hundreds of miles offshore from British Columbia to northern California. New research...

  • Parallel execution of the Simplex algorithm

    Creator:
    Choi, Sungwoon
    Abstract:
    This project is concerned with the optimal distribution of the computation and the data in parallelized Simplex algorithms. Test cases were implemented on a 16-processor Transputer system from INMOS Corporation. By careful consideration of distribution of computations and data, a nearly linear speedup pattern was obtained. The most interesting thing...

  • A study of global variables vs parameter passing

    Creator:
    Matar, Muna
    Abstract:
    Program understanding is a very important part of the testing and maintenance phases of the programming projects. The overall program knowledge, understanding the various parts of the program, and how they communicate are key steps in understanding the program. Hence data communication among modules contributes much to program complexity and...

  • Schemer : a hierarchical software architecture for real time problem solving

    Creator:
    Srivastava, Sharad
    Abstract:
    This paper describes Schemer, a hierarchical software architecture for Real Time problem solving. Real time applications must be able to react to critical events quickly, and be able to explore simultaneous solutions in response to, or, in anticipation of such events. Schemer, which is a Blackboard-like architecture, addresses the aforementioned...

  • Validation of Design For Additive Manufacturing Heuristics for Aperiodic Structures through Application to Regular Structures

    Creator:
    Schipper, Paxton
    Abstract:
    Aperiodic structures cause significant challenges to subtractive manufacturing methods due to the common features such as inaccessible voids within the structure. Additive man- ufacturing presents an appealing alternative for this purpose. The aim of this research is to test analysis heuristics for validity through application to periodic structures. First, a...

  • Multiscale Methods and Energy Stable Discretizations for Maxwell’s Equations in Linearand Nonlinear Materials

    Creator:
    Sakkaplangkul, Puttha
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we introduce a family of fully discrete finite difference time-domain (FDTD) methods for Maxwell’s equations in linear and nonlinear materials. Onecategory of methods is constructed using multiscale techniques involving operator splittings. We present the sequential splitting scheme, the Strang Marchuk splitting scheme,the weighted sequential splitting scheme including...

  • Learning-based Techniques for Fast and Robust Motion Planning

    Creator:
    Chow, Scott
    Abstract:
    Motion planning is a cornerstone of autonomous robots, enabling robots to safely and efficiently perform tasks such as package delivery, infrastructure inspection, and manipulation. However, as the field of robotics matures, robotic systems are being developed that (1) are challenging to analytically model, (2) require computationally expensive model-based controllers, and...
