A Novel Method of Measuring Refractory Black Carbon Mass and Number Distributions by Inversion of CPMA-SP2 Data
DownloadFall 2017
A new method of examining mass and number distributions of nanoscale refractive black carbon (rBC) particles has been developed. This method will be useful for atmospheric scientists conducting semi-continuous measurement of atmospheric rBC. The new method uses a Centrifugal Particle Mass...

Acoustic and elastic least-squares two-way wave equation migration with exact adjoint operator
DownloadSpring 2017
A major problem in exploration seismology entails estimating subsurface structures and properties via linearized inversion. The problem is often called ''least-squares migration" where seismic imaging is posed as an iterative least-squares problem. The iterative solution employs the method of...

In this thesis, we present approximation algorithms for various NP-hard vehicle routing problems, as well as for a related maximum group coverage problem. Our main contribution is a framework to build good constant-factor approximation algorithms for variants of the multi-depot $k$-travelling...

In this thesis, we present Approximation Schemes for the Min Sum k Clustering problem on a number of classes of graph metrics. In Min Sum k Clustering problem introduced by Sahni and Gonzalez [22] in 1976, given a graph G(V, E) with metric edge costs and parameter k, we are asked to partition V...

Development of a Model using Machine Learning Intended to be Embedded in a Wearable Device to Detect Muscle Fatigue based on sEMG Data Associated with a Sustained Single 80% Maximum Voluntary Contraction
DownloadFall 2021
Background: Muscle fatigue is the progressive reduction in a muscle's ability to contract and exert force when performing a sustained task. Muscle fatigue may prevent the task from being complete and increase the risk of injury. Eventually, the performance of individuals during athletic...

Efficient algorithms for least squares wave equation migration and source signature estimation
DownloadFall 2017
Estimating accurate images of the subsurface is one of the end products of seismic data processing. Numerical solutions to the wave equation allow designing linearized forward operators. The adjoint of the linearized forward operator is used to image the interior of the earth. The adjoint...

Electrical Resistivity Structure of the Altiplano-Puna Magma Body and Volcan Uturuncu from Magnetotelluric Data
DownloadFall 2015
An intense episode of silicic volcanism in the Southern Altiplano over the past ten million years has created a major volcanic province in the Central Andes known as the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC). Geophysical evidence indicates that magma is still present in a large mid-crustal...

In this thesis, we present our work on two combinatorial optimization problems. The first problem is the Bandpass problem, and we designed a linear time exact algorithm for the 3-column case. The other work is on the Complementary Maximal Strip Recovery problem, for which we designed a...

Landslides have occurred throughout the Holocene geologic epoch and they continue to occur in the Peace River Lowlands of Alberta and British Columbia. This study was conducted to provide an understanding of the processes and extents of one such landslide situated on a major slope at the Town of...
