Models of interacting quantum spins have contributed significantly to our understanding of magnetism. The Heisenberg model on square lattice, which exhibits semiclassical N´eel order, is one of the canonical models. However, with frustration introduced by competing interactions, the system...

Accurate Dosimetry for Ocular Brachytherapy: Measurement, Delivery Uncertainty, and Dose Calculation Studies
DownloadFall 2017
Ocular brachytherapy has been found to be an excellent alternative for the treatment of ocular melanomas compared to the predominantly used treatment prior to the 1980s of enucleation. Tumour control rates are generally >90%, overall survival rates are equivalent to enucleation, and ocular...

Monte Carlo methods are a simple, effective, and widely deployed way of approximating integrals that prove too challenging for deterministic approaches. This thesis presents a number of contributions to the field of adaptive Monte Carlo methods. That is, approaches that automatically adjust the...

Collecting information is of vital importance for the development of a mineral project. The capital costs of mining projects are high and there is significant risk due to the available data. At all stages of a project, from exploration to mine closure, decisions need to be made that are based off...

Calculating and modeling a variogram from sparsely sampled data can be complex and time-consuming due to the need for expertise in selecting the appropriate parameters and fitting functions to the experimental variogram. To assist with variogram modeling, a novel approach based on Convolutional...

Black, T.A., Izaurralde, R.C., Lokupitiya, E., Munger, J.W., Schaefer, K., Weng, E., Richardson, A.D., Altaf Arain, M., Luo, Y., Ciais, P., Ricciuto, D.M., Stoy, P.C., Dietze, M.C., Poulter, B., Barr, A.G., Liu, S., Hollinger, D., Tian, H., Suyker, A.E., Verbeeck, H., Price, D.T., Grant, R.F., Peng, C., Baker, I.T., Vargas, R., Anderson, R.S., Tonitto, C., Sahoo, A.K., Chen, J.M., Flanagan, L.B., Riley, W.J., Wang, W., Lafleur, P., Gough, C.M., Verma, S.B., Kucharik, C.J.
Ecosystem models are important tools for diagnosing the carbon cycle and projecting its behavior across space and time. Despite the fact that ecosystems respond to drivers at multiple time scales, most assessments of model performance do not discriminate different time scales. Spectral methods,...

Climate change is an important issue and educators have a responsibility to prepare students to face the challenges and future changes that climate change presents. Unfortunately, public uncertainty about the extent and causes of climate change and the interdisciplinary nature of the climate...
