Harvesting Sunshine: A Modular Integrated Framework for Modeling the Agrivoltaic System

Creator:: Proctor, Kyle W.
Abstract:: Understanding the interplay between energy and water is central to effective natural resource management. With enough energy it is possible to secure sufficient water, with enough water it is possible to produce nearly boundless energy. The sun is the engine which drives the availability of both these resources; nearly every...

Development of a Statistical Emulator of US Crop Yields via a Deep Neural Network Approach

Creator:: Proctor, Kyle W.
Abstract:: Agricultural systems are inherently complex; understanding these systems requires knowledge of climatology, plant physiology, soil physics, economics, and the human psychology of the farmers themselves. Decision support tools strive to leverage existing data to help guide stakeholders towards the best policies and practices for their situation. Quantitative crop simulation models...

Agrivoltaics align with Green New Deal goals while supporting investment in the US’ rural economy S1 - Methods

Creator:: Proctor, Kyle W., Murthy, Ganti S., and Higgins, Chad W.
Abstract:: This Jupyter Notebook is intended to accompany the publication "Agrivoltaics align with Green New Deal goals while supporting investment in the US’ rural economy".This reduced-order economic analysis estimates the total construction, operation, and energy storage costs of wide scale implementation of Agrivoltaic Systems in the United States. Additionally, estimates are...

The Great Hall: A Story of Promise, Lost Opportunity, and the Value of the Liberal Arts

Creator:: Proctor, Jenna Marie
Abstract:: The liberal arts have always struggled to find their place in the technically oriented land-grant university. Land-grant universities were tasked by the 1862 Morrill Act with providing both a practical and liberal education for all students. The liberal arts, however, were quickly sidelined from this dual purpose with the increasing...

Comparing the autoignition performance of chemical kinetic models for toluene using data extracted from the literature

Creator:: Mayer, Morgan
Abstract:: Real transportation fuels contain a wide range of hydrocarbon species, and this complexity poses challenges for modeling. Surrogates with a simpler blend of hydrocarbon reference fuels can approximate the physical and chemical characteristics of real fuels and enable practical simulation of the reacting flows that occur in engines and combustors....

Testing and design procedures for electric propellant pumps for suborbital bi-propellant rockets

Creator:: Verna-Ketel, Dominic
Abstract:: An electrically driven propellant pump (HALE E-Pump) was analysed and tested to determine its viability for use in a bi-propellant launch vehicle for the High-Altitude Liquid Engine (HALE) student rocket team at Oregon State University (OSU). The pump, manufactured in 2022 by students in OSU machine shops, was hydrostatically tested...

Reducing Biogeochemical Models with an Automated Reduction Method

Creator:: Klee, Emily
Abstract:: Modeling elementary chemical reactions in ocean ﬂuid dynamics simulations requires signiﬁcant computing resources, which can be diminished with model reduction techniques. Submesoscale ocean turbulence and biogeochemical reactions in the ocean occur on approximately the same time scale, 105 seconds. This similarity in time scales indicates a strong coupling between these...

Evaluating Stiffness Metrics for Predicting the Cost of Chemical Kinetics Integration

Creator:: Alferman, Andrew Thomas
Abstract:: Simulations of combustion and reacting flows often encounter stiffness in the equations governing chemical kinetics. Explicit solvers for these ordinary differential equations offer low computational expense, but typically cannot efficiently handle stiff systems. In contrast, implicit methods demand greater expense but offer unconditional stability—as a result, most reactive-flow solvers rely...

Swept time-space domain decomposition on GPUs and heterogeneous computing systems

Creator:: Magee, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Modern scientific and engineering problems often require simulations with a level of resolution difficult to achieve in reasonable amounts of time—even in effectively parallelized programs. Therefore, applications that exploit high performance computing (HPC) systems have become invaluable in academia and industry over the past two decades. Addressing the questions that...
