Perishable commodities make up a significant part of our global commerce, from the food we eat to the flowers we gift. Compared to conventional supply chains, the logistical operations involved in maintaining a cold chain for such perishables are appreciably more complex and cos…
The dissertation develops a methodology framework to support decision-making in effectively predicting and disrupting an interdependent incomplete network. The proposed framework is tested on the Organized Criminal Network (OCNs), i.e. interdependent sex trafficking network and …
Photovoltaics are at the forefront of new additions of renewable energy, driven by rapid integration of new technologies most significantly a transition from traditional Al-BSF to higher efficiency PERC silicon cells. As they are a more modern technology, PERC cells do not have …
The wireless industry is growing very fast in the last decade with the main aim of high-speed, low-latency, and reliable communication. Localization, being a primary and essential component of wireless communication, needs to be efficient enough to match modern requirements. Wit…
The structures comprising the human auditory periphery each perform unique functions to direct incoming sound, provide frequency-dependent gain, match impedance between air and liquids, and decompose the signal into its component frequencies. However, conductive and sensorineura…
The formulation and solution of a model that properly described the temperature profiles of uranium in fire conditions was prepared, verified and validated, to support a-posteriori benchmarking of historical experiments. Data from the multi-physics model combined with data regre…
Digitalization is changing society, industry, and how business is done. For new companies that are more or less born digital, there is the opportunity to use and benefit from the capabilities offered by the new digital technologies, of which data-driven decision-making forms a c…
This thesis considers the effect the transition to outcomes based education (OBE) has had on engineering educators and engineering education in the Institutes of Technology (IoTs) in Ireland. Whereas engineering education research into learning outcomes largely focuses on how te…
Radiation treatment, one of the main methods to treat cancer, requires a CT simulation to view the body’s inner structure and generate treatment plans. The appointment scheduling for CT simulation and radiation treatments is a complex two-stage problem for patients of different …
Due to high strength to weight ratio, excellent damping and vibration properties, and good bonding appearance and quality between dissimilar materials, adhesive bonding is replacing conventional joining methods in the aerospace industry to pursue long aircraft life and less main…
Stress Relief Cracking (SRC) in low alloy steels was the core focus for this work. Stress relief cracking is an ongoing concern for thick-walled creep resistant steel welds during PWHT when high restraint and high residual stresses are present after welding. While much is alread…
Oil spill events can be catastrophically harmful to coastal ecosystems, causing considerable and long-term environmental and economic impacts before associated consequences are finally eliminated. Conducting timely, flexible, and accurate surveys immediately after a spill incide…
The rapid rise of shared electric scooter (E-Scooter) systems offers many urban areas a new micro-mobility solution. The portable and flexible characteristics have made E-Scooters a competitive mode for short-distance trips. Compared to other modes such as bikes, E-Scooters allo…
Current literature supports the importance of ethnic places in maintaining cultural identity of immigrants. One of the important components of ethnicity is expressed in the manner in which ethnic groups prepare and serve their food. The background behind this selection was inspi…
Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) is currently experimenting with warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies and recycled asphalt pavement (RAP). The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the effects of various WMA technologies and various levels of RAP on Nevada mixtures …
Roadside safety signs are used to inform drivers about different traffic information. These signs play a vital role in traffic safety by influencing drivers’ behavior positively. However, due to limitations of human beings’ on information processing and driver distractions, peop…
There has been a wide spread research in the field of sports biomechanics, providing useful information about the risk of injuries in various sports. This information is beneficial in educating athletes and professional trainers about the possible risk of injuries and providing …
This dissertation proposes new optimization algorithms targeting protein-protein docking which is an important class of problems in computational structural biology. The ultimate goal of docking methods is to predict the 3-dimensional structure of a stable protein-protein comple…
