Effects of fish-human transmission and different life stages of fish on Clonorchiasis: A novel mathematical model
Download2024-07-01
Wang, Wei, Huang, Xiaohui, Wang, Hao
Abstract (description taken from article) Clonorchiasis is a zoonotic disease mainly caused by eating raw fish and shrimp, and there is no vaccine to prevent it. More than 30 million people are infected worldwide, of which China alone accounts for about half, and is one of the countries most...

Finite Element Model of the Thermal Profile During Submerged Arc Welding with One and Two Electrodes
DownloadFall 2016
The submerged-arc welding (SAW) process is used extensively in the manufacturing of pipes. The heat flow introduced by the welding operation has a significant impact on the properties of both the weld metal and the heat affected zone (HAZ). The work presented in this thesis aims to develop a...

Global analysis of an age-structured tuberculosis model with an application to Jiangsu, China
Download2024-04-02
Jing, Shuanglin, Xue, Ling, Wang, Hao, Peng, Zhihang
Abstract (taken from the article) Diagnostic delay for TB infected individuals and the lack of TB vaccines for adults are the main challenges to achieve the goals of WHO by 2050. In order to evaluate the impacts of diagnostic delay and vaccination for adults on prevalence of TB, we propose an...

Integration of anaerobic digestion and hydrothermal liquefaction for sewage sludge management
DownloadFall 2024
Given the volume of sewage sludge produced worldwide, efficient waste management and energy recovery techniques are essential. Anaerobic digestion (AD) and hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) are viable avenues for the valorization of sewage sludge. Their combination produces a synergistic framework...

Fall 2017
This thesis focuses on formulating and analyzing non linear models for microbial dynamics vis-a-vis human and environmental health. Firstly, we develop and investigate a stoichiometric organic matter decomposition model in a chemostat culture that incorporates the dynamics of grazers. This...

Fall 2019
The performance-orientated abnormality detection design problem has drawn more attention nowadays. This thesis focuses on analytical performance analysis and the corresponding detector design problem for linear filters, the Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD) and Renyi divergence. First,...

Soil Moisture and Hydraulic Parameter Estimation and Remote Sensing for Precision Irrigation
DownloadFall 2022
Water scarcities are becoming serious issues worldwide primarily due to population growth, climate change, and increasing pollution. Since a large portion of freshwater is consumed in agricultural activities, with the main consumer being irrigation, increasing the water-use efficiency in...
