  • Nongenomic Actions of Steroid Hormones in the Ovine Endometrium

    Creator:
    Ireton, Kyle E.
    Abstract:
    The steroid hormone estrogen plays a crucial role in regulating certain mammalian tissues, especially female reproductive systems. Estrogen effects physiological changes in the cell by altering transcription activity for certain target genes, as a consequence of interactions between estradiol-17β (E2) and its nuclear receptor (nER). This mechanism of cellular control...

  • 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...

  • Computational Investigation on the Effects of Arc Location in Vacuum Arc Remelting

    Creator:
    Soler, Miguel
    Abstract:
    Vacuum arc remelting (VAR) is a secondary melting process for exotic alloys. The main purpose of this process is to increase the input ingot’s physical and chemical homogeneity. This is accomplished through the application of a high current that melts the material through the emergence of electrical arcs that induce...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 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....

  • GPU-Based Fluid-Structure Interaction using Immersed Boundary Methods

    Creator:
    Minar, Christopher
    Abstract:
    Engineering applications often require fast, accurate solutions of fluid flow around freely moving bodies. The massive parallelism enabled by graphics processing unit (GPU) architecture enables high performance, offering a promising alternative to traditional solver acceleration via multicore central processing units (CPU). However, fully harnessing GPU parallelism requires specialized algorithms and...
