Dynamical System Scaling of Fuel Performance During Reactivity Insertion Accidents

Creator:: Dueñas, Alexander M.
Abstract:: Fuel qualification timelines for new fuel technology under ideal conditions can take between 20-25 years to be fully qualified from initial concept to deployment as full fuel assemblies. To reduce the timeline and costs, new separate-effects test and integral-effects test experiments, advanced instrumentation, and advanced modeling and simulation tools are...

Investigation of Drag Coefficient and Virtual Mass Coefficient on Rising Ellipsoidal Bubbles

Creator:: Dueñas, Alexander M.
Abstract:: Accurately describing drag and virtual mass forces in two-phase flows is crucial for high fidelity modeling of nuclear thermal hydraulic safety systems. This study compares existing drag coefficient correlations commonly used in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) applications for air bubbles to experimental data collected for ellipsoidal air bubbles of varying...

The Kalispel Tribe of Indian’s Contemporary Usage of Traditional Foodways

Creator:: Hilborn, Alexander M.
Abstract:: Native American traditional foodways serve as one of the most important resources for indigenous communities because these resources provide a variety of non-physical cultural assets and health benefits to Native groups through the medium of food. The demolition of North America’s foodways through colonization has had adverse effects on indigenous...

Membrane permeability properties of human granulocytes

Creator:: Vian, Alexander M.
Abstract:: In the last decade, there has been renewed interest in the use of granulocyte transfusions to treat infections in individuals with compromised immune systems. However, granulocytes only remain functional for about a day after isolation and this short shelf life is a significant drawback. Cryopreservation would allow long term storage...

Wind ramp prediction

Creator:: Alexander, Chianna M.
Abstract:: The number of wind turbines and wind farms in the Pacific Northwest has increased dramatically in the past six years, which represents a significant amount of electrical generation capacity connected to the public electric grid. However, the variable nature of wind sometimes introduces excessive power, or conversely shortages, in power...

Advancing Understanding of Changes in the Cryosphere of the Western United States and Alaska: A Case for the Importance of Spatial and Temporal Scaling

Creator:: Roberts-Pierel, Benjamin M.
Abstract:: The global cryosphere, defined as the world’s ice and snow covered regions, is a crucial water source for society and ecosystem functions, as well as an important regulator of the earth’s energy budget. Melt from glaciers and seasonal snow cover provides water for more than a sixth of the world’s...

Validation of radiographic automatic exposure control device testing in the era of filmless radiography : and new variables associated with testing

Creator:: Allman, Robert M.
Abstract:: The exposure needed for a clinically useful image requires much less precision when using digital radiography (DR) than when using screen/film (SF) radiography. The Automatic Exposure Control (AEC) device was developed for ensuring accurate and precise exposures with SF technology. This thesis evaluates the importance of the AEC device in...

Marine bacterioplankton abundances and distributions

Creator:: Morris, Robert M.
Abstract:: Microorganisms play key roles in ocean biogeochemistry. However, several predominant groups of uncultured bacterioplankton thought to contribute to important biogeochemical processes in the oceans are known primarily from gene cloning studies. Although these studies have greatly expanded our view of microbial diversity in the oceans, they are not quantitative and...

Flux Balance Analysis of Synechocystis PCC 6803.

Creator:: Elder, Robert M.
Abstract:: In order to improve photosynthetic hydrogen production, initial work has begun on a flux balance analysis of Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803, a model H2-producing organism. The mathematical model developed includes reactions relevant to photoautotrophic growth: glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the Calvin cycle, the photosynthetic electron transport chain, the...

Best practices for assessing forage fish fisheries-seabird resource competition

Creator:: Sydeman, William J., Thompson, Sarah Ann, Anker-Nilssen, Tycho, Arimitsu, Mayumi, Bennison, Ashley, Bertrand, Sophie, Boersch-Supan, Philipp, Boyd, Charlotte, Bransome, Nicole C., Crawford, Robert J. M., Daunt, Francis, Furness, Robert W., Gianuca, Dimas, Gladics, Amanda J., Koehn, Laura, Lang, Jennifer W., Logerwell, Elizabeth, Morris, Taryn L., Phillips, Elizabeth M., Provencher, Jennifer, Punt, André E., Saraux, Claire, Shannon, Lynne, Sherley, Richard B., Simeone, Alejandro, Wanless, Ross M., Wanless, Sarah, and Zador, Stephani
Abstract:: Worldwide, in recent years capture fisheries targeting lower-trophic level forage fish and euphausiid crustaceans have been substantial (∼20 million metric tons [MT] annually). Landings of forage species are projected to increase in the future, and this harvest may affect marine ecosystems and predator-prey interactions by removal or redistribution of biomass...
