Understanding Flow Through Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Heat Exchangers: Edge Effects, Geometric Modifications, and Predictive Models for Pressure Drop and Heat Transfer
(2026-05-08)Triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) lattices are a leading candidate geometry for next-generation nuclear and compact-aerospace heat exchangers, but the pressure-drop penalty inherent to TPMS remains the principal barrier ... -
Understanding PFAA Transport in Unsaturated Porous Media: Insights from Meter-Scale Column Experiments
(2024-09-03)Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of contaminants that have gained significant attention due to their persistence, bioaccumulation potential, and adverse effects on human health and the environment. ... -
USING SIMULATION IN THE DESIGN, TESTING, AND OPTIMIZATION OF AUTONOMY STACKS FOR AUTONOMOUS GROUND VEHICLES
(2024-05-24)The integration of autonomy in an increasing number of engineering systems, e.g., rovers, all terrain ground vehicles, quadcopters, calls for effective tools that can assist one in developing robust and efficient autonomy ... -

VASCULARLY RINSING LAMB CARCASSES WITH CALCIUM CHLORIDE IN COMBINATION WITH ELECTRICAL STIMULATION ON PROTEOLYTIC CHANGES THAT INCREASE TENDERNESS
(2024-12-20)Rinse & Chill® technology has successfully vascular rinsed the carcass, which effectively removes the residual blood in early postmortem using a chilled isotonic substrate solution (98.5% water and the balance of polysaccharides ... -
Very Low Temperature Sensitive, Deep-Well Quantum Cascade Lasers (lambda = 4.8 mum) grown by MOCVD
(2010-08)Varying-composition, deep-well quantum cascade laser (DW-QCL) structures are proposed to suppress carrier leakage at and above room temperature. The layer compositions of the quantum wells and barriers in the active region ... -
Vibration Testing for Validating a Reduced-Order Human Impedance Model in Rotational Haptics Interaction
(2026-05-06)Haptic devices are physically coupled to human users, making the mechanical dynamics of the human body an important factor in system stability, transparency, and controller design. While human impedance has been studied ... -
Vision-Based Safe Control for Robotic Manipulators
(2025-05-08)This thesis presents a comprehensive framework for vision-based safe control of robotic manipulators, emphasizing image-based visual servoing (IBVS) combined with optimization-based collision avoidance, nonlinear model ... -
