Analysis of domain decomposition methods for the simulation of charge transport in semiconductor structures with heterojunctions

Creator:: Costa, Timothy B.
Abstract:: Charge transport in a semiconductor structure with heterojunction is described by a multiscale partial differential equation model. This model can be used, e.g., for the design of more efficient solar cells. Phenomena at the heterojunction must be resolved at the angstrom scale while the size of the device is that...

Hybrid Multiscale Methods with Applications to Semiconductors, Porous Media, and Materials Science

Creator:: Costa, Timothy B.
Abstract:: In this work we consider two multiscale applications with tremendous computational complexity at the lower scale. First, we examine a model for charge transport in semicon- ductor structures with heterojunction interfaces. Due to the complex physical phenomena at the interface, the model at the design scale is unable to adequately...

Improving the Quality of Software Using Mutation Testing and Fault Prediction

Creator:: Ahmed, Iftekhar
Abstract:: Our confidence in software systems depends on our confidence in the exhaustiveness of our testing. As software systems get more complex, the task of exhaustive testing becomes more complex and even infeasible in some cases. In order to build less error prone systems, we therefore need to not only focus...

Effect of organic fertilizers on survival, growth, chlorophyll and NDVI of Aniba rosaeodora Ducke plants in the Peruvian Amazon

Creator:: Vasquez Amasifuen, Cesar Paul
Abstract:: Aniba rosaeodora commonly known as rosewood is a tree species of great socio-economic value in the Amazon because it is harvested for the extraction of its essential oil, which is used in the production of cosmetics. Since rosewood is a wild species included on the Convention on International Trade in...

Modelling Early-Seral Vegetation Dynamics Using Climate and Soil Moisture

Creator:: Guevara, Claudio A.
Abstract:: Forest plantations in the Pacific Northwest are highly productive and have been intensively managed to maximize tree growth with practices such as Forest Vegetation Management (FVM). Different FVM regimes have been shown to enhance forest establishment by reducing the competition between the planted seedlings and early-seral vegetation. To better understand...

Investigating the Effects of Design Quality in OSS Projects

Creator:: Mannan, Umme Ayda
Abstract:: Software systems are becoming an essential part of the lives of both individuals and organizations, and as a consequence, these systems are getting bigger and more complex. Because of this, the tasks of maintaining the quality in these complex software systems are becoming increasingly difficult. Furthermore, these systems are subject...

An Investigation of the Effects of Merge Conflicts on Collaborative Software Development

Creator:: Brindescu, Caius
Abstract:: Merge conflicts have long plagued software development. With larger and more dispersed teams comes greater risk of developers working on the same code at the same time. While merge conflicts are known to be painful, their exact impact on software is still largely unknown. Are merge conflicts an isolated problem,...

Water Use and Competitiveness of Senecio sylvaticus in Young Pseudotsuga menziesii Plantations in Western Oregon

Creator:: Cowden, Reed J.
Abstract:: Competition for soil water resources between newly planted Douglas-fir seedlings and aggressive early-seral plants, such as Senecio sylvaticus [L.] (Woodland groundsel, Senecio), can create drought conditions that impact tree seedling physiology, growth and likelihood of mortality. However, the specific impact of Senecio on soil moisture dynamics and inducement of water...

Spatial and temporal variability of carbon dynamics in a tropical forest of Colombia

Creator:: Sierra, Carlos Alberto
Abstract:: Despite the importance of tropical forest ecosystems in the global carbon cycle, there have been few studies of carbon dynamics in this biome. The magnitude of carbon stocks in the tropics and their changes over time are poorly known since ground-based observations are lacking. In this study, total carbon stocks...

Rapid endangered species assessment : a novel approach to improve extinction risk assessments in poorly known species

Creator:: Bianchi, Carlos A.
Abstract:: The number of endangered species is rapidly increasing while paucity of adequate information and resources delays establishment of conservation actions. The IUCN’s listing system is insufficient to determine conservation priorities and many species lack information even to be evaluated (i.e., “data deficient”). Here I proposed and tested the Rapid Endangered...
