The Effects of Modularity on Cascading Failures in Complex Engineering Systems

Creator:: Parker, Elizabeth M.
Abstract:: To design engineering systems that have improved reliability, it is important to understand what kind of system faults they will be susceptible to. Mitigation strategies are important to ensuring the performance of these engineering systems. Understanding how the modularity of complex engineering systems affects the risk of devastating failures such...

Probing Aqueous Ion-Pairing and Speciation of Group V Polyoxometalates

Creator:: Sures, Dylan J.
Abstract:: Polyoxometalates are discrete anionic oxo clusters of the Group V and VI transition metals that can be conceptualized as molecular metal oxides. Because they are pairable with any alkali cation, a great deal of fundamental chemistry can be gleaned from their study, including solubility trends and insight into cation binding...

What's streamflow got to do with it? A probabilistic simulation of the competing oceanographic and fluvial processes driving extreme along-river water levels

Creator:: Serafin, Katherine A., Ruggiero, Peter, and Parker, Kai
Abstract:: Extreme water levels generating flooding in estuarine and coastal environments are often driven by compound events, where many individual processes such as waves, storm surge, streamflow, and tides coincide. Despite this, extreme water levels are typically modeled in isolated open-coast or estuarine environments, potentially mischaracterizing the true risk of flooding...

"You're Really Gonna Kick Us All Out?" Sustaining Safe Spaces for Community-Based HIV Prevention and Control among Black Men Who Have Sex with Men

Creator:: Garcia, Jonathan, Parker, Caroline, Parker, Richard G., Wilson, Patrick A., Philbin, Morgan M., and Hirsch, Jennifer S.
Abstract:: Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) experience among the highest rates of HIV infection in the United States. We conducted a community-based ethnography in New York City to identify the structural and environmental factors that influence BMSMs vulnerability to HIV and their engagement with HIV prevention services. Methods...

The effects of changing climate on estuarine water levels: a United States Pacific Northwest case study

Creator:: Parker, Kai, Hill, David, García-Medina, Gabriel, and Beamer, Jordan
Abstract:: Climate change impacts on extreme water levels (WLs) at two United States Pacific Northwest estuaries are investigated using a multicomponent process-based modeling framework. The integrated impact of climate change on estuarine forcing is considered using a series of sub-models that track changes to oceanic, atmospheric, and hydrologic controls on hydrodynamics....

Data from: Methodology for comparing wood adhesive bond load transfer using digital volume correlation

Creator:: Ching, Daniel J., McKinley, Paige E., Kamke, Fred A., Zauner, Michaela, and Xiao, Xianghui
Abstract:: There is a lack of fundamental knowledge about the role which adhesive flow and infiltration plays in the micro-mechanical performance of wood adhesive bonds. This data set, for the first time, provides a way to study directly the relationship between adhesive flow and the micro-mechanics of wood adhesive bonds. Specimens...

Melting Stage Analysis for Indirect Freeze Desalination

Creator:: Pratt, Mason G.
Abstract:: To investigate the melting stage of indirect freeze desalination three numerical models were developed. A zeroth, ﬁrst, and second order analyses modeled the melting of ice around the outside of a pipe as a function of time. The zeroth order analysis assumes the system to be steady state. The ﬁrst...

Psychological Effects of Sport Injury on NCAA Division I Student Athlete: A Qualitative Case Study

Creator:: Gilbert, Kily C.
Abstract:: Negative emotional states are common for injured athletes, yet a 2016 survey suggested that only 38.3% of NCAA institutions had a full or part-time mental health professional (Kroshus, 2016). In considering the lack of support for mental health conditions in NCAA institutions, and the mental and psychological issues that come...

Direct Numerical Simulation of Anisotropic Particles in Turbulent Flow

Creator:: Roberts, Kai
Abstract:: Turbulent flows with suspended, non-spherical particles are common in many natural and industrial processes. To identify the effects of anisotropic geometry on particle dynamics, a one-way coupled Lagrangian direct numerical simulation solver was written, verified, and used to collect data on particles simulated in multiple flows. This thesis explains the...
