The flow mechanics and resulting erosional and depositional features of explosive volcanic density currents on earth and Mars

Creator:: Reimers, Clare E.
Abstract:: Straight, radial, erosional channels and fan-like deposits of tephra develop around steep-sided cones and composite volcanoes, but are not characteristic features of shield volcanoes. The channels and deposits normally are formed by explosive volcanic density currents which originate as nuées adrentes or base surges. The physical processes of explosive volcanic...

Evaluating Cultural Dimensions to Design Better User Interfaces

Creator:: Miller, Robert
Abstract:: Cultural differences between designers and users is an important aspect to consider when designing products for other countries. However, many prominent authors in the human factors engineering field have failed to specifically address how to identify and utilize cultural differences in user interface (UI) design. This research evaluated if design...

Evaluation of system effects and structural load paths in a wood-framed structure

Creator:: Martin, Kenneth G.
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to develop an analytical model of a light-framed wood structure using a prevalent structural analysis computer program in order to evaluate system effects and define load paths within the structure, especially under extreme wind events. Simplified modeling techniques and material definitions were developed and...

Latinx Adolescent Sexual Health Education: Informing a Culturally Centered and Inclusive Program

Creator:: Cervantes, Beathriz
Abstract:: Latinx youth in the US experience stark inequities in sexual and reproductive health, including rates of unplanned pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. One promising way to reduce these inequities is to provide culturally centered, comprehensive sexual health education. However, such curricula are rarely offered to Latinx youth, in part because...

Attitudes toward science and critical thinking abilities of chemistry and non-chemistry students in the Tacoma Public schools

Creator:: Brown, Terrance Ralph
Abstract:: This investigation was designed to compare the growth in attitudes toward science and the critical thinking abilities of high school juniors in chemistry to juniors not enrolled in chemistry. One hundred and fifty-three chemistry students and 149 non-chemistry students were randomly selected to participate in the study. Criterion tests used...

Effects of realistic distractions and interruptions on simulated surgical task performance

Creator:: Feuerbacher, Robin L.
Abstract:: Distractions and interruptions are common occurrences in an operating room (OR), but little is known about their effects on surgical task performance. Based on human factors research, it was hypothesized that realistic distractions and interruptions in an OR would adversely impact surgical task performance. Because of the concern of patient...

Environmental Regulations Reconsidered : Identifying Incentives and Barriers to Environmental Performance

Creator:: Craig, Kathleen D.
Abstract:: Attention has been drawn to the observation that environmental benefits under the current regulatory approaches are diminishing with respect to increased pollution control costs. Regulators have begun to appreciate that while environmental gains can still be achieved under the current command and control system, the most significant environmental gains have...

Functional analysis of flight crew performance : a systems engineering perspective on crew resource management

Creator:: Sukhia, Cherag R.
Abstract:: Many failures of interpersonal communication and coordination in the aircraft cockpit have been found to occur as a result of poor management of flightdeck 'resources'. Crew Resource Management (CRM) is a concept that has evolved within the aviation community to specifically address this issue of resource management. The concept of...

A model-based methodology for the evaluation of computerized group decision making

Creator:: McNown Perry, Cindy A.
Abstract:: Increased global competition is forcing organizations to increase their use of group decision making today. Computerized group decision support aids (CGDSAs) are being developed to improve the efficiency of these groups and to improve decision quality. Even though the use of CGDSAs has increased, very little research has been done...
