Fall 2016
Object-based stochastic simulation models are commonly applied for generating facies or rock models with more realistic representation of complicated reservoir heterogeneity. A limitation of object-based modeling is the difficulty of conditioning to dense well data. One method to achieve...

Coordination and Optimization of Power Distribution Systems with Stochastic Distributed Energy Resources using Artificial Intelligence
DownloadSpring 2021
High levels of penetration of distributed photovoltaic generators can cause serious overvoltage issues, especially during periods of high power generation and light loads. It is of vital importance to gain more understanding of the system and to prepare mitigation plans before the number of PV...

Fall 2023
A new microprocessor within a given processor architecture may introduce performance-improving features that either can only be accessed through novel instructions or require new code-generation techniques to be beneficial. In response, compilers must be extended/improved to make use of these new...

Decision Support System for Crane Selection and Location Optimization on Construction Sites
DownloadFall 2013
Selecting the most appropriate cranes and identifying ideal crane locations on site can improve the productivity and safety of large-scale construction projects. A significant proportion of crane accidents have been caused by improper crane selection, lack of a proper crane support system, or a...

Design and Construction of a Temperature Cell to Study the Effect of Temperature Rise on Particle-Drop Impact
DownloadFall 2013
An experimental device aimed at simulating interactions in a fluidization process was designed, built, and tested to allow future study of drop-particle impact at high temperatures. The design parameters were defined based on theoretical investigations. A feasibility study were developed using...

Design and Validation of a Practical Simulator for the Development of Basic Nasal Endoscopy Skills in Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery
DownloadFall 2015
Diagnostic nasal endoscopy is the standard procedure used by Otolaryngology – Head and Neck (OHNS) surgeons in detecting and treating conditions of the nose and sinuses. Due to a reduction in time resources towards surgical residency programs, OHNS residents have less access to hands-on patient...
