Sediment transport modeling and implications for benthic primary producers in Oak Creek, OR

Creator:: Katz, Scott B.
Abstract:: The spatial and temporal variability of sediment transport processes in Oak Creek, OR was investigated and used to explore two study questions: 1) How do sediment transport processes influence benthic algal communities?, and 2) Can fluvial-hydraulic models make accurate predictions of bed load transport rates? Our study was conducted in...

An Exploration of Scholarship on Peer Review in Composition Studies : Looking to the Future with Replicable, Aggregated, and Data-Supported Research Methodologies

Creator:: Day, Jacob E.
Abstract:: This thesis examines the nature of evidence in scholarship on peer review in composition studies. I argue that the nature of evidence present in scholarship on peer review over the past three decades is typically anecdotal, theoretical, and based on limited case studies.

A multiscale modeling approach for bubble-vortex interactions in hydro-propulsion systems

Creator:: Finn, Justin Richard
Abstract:: Multiphase flow dynamics are important in many naval and turbomachinery applications, where bubble interaction with low pressure, vortical structures can lead to undesirable cavitation effects. To better understand the underlying phenomena, a multiscale numerical framework is developed to simulate bubble laden flow in dynamic hydro propulsion systems. Several subproblems in...
