Modeling Factors Influencing Commuter Cycling Routes: A Study of GPS Cycling Records in Auburn, Alabama
(2015-08-19)
As the emphasis placed on cycling as a means of transportation is increasing in the United States, so is the need for adequate facilities that provide cyclists with a comfortable and connected facility. In order for these ...
Modeling Human Perception of Postural Stress
(2013-04-22)
This work investigated the discomfort-time sequences of SPH tasks in an effort to determine the existing relationship between perceived discomfort and posture holding time. This study proposed the power function as an ...
Modeling Hydrologic and Water Quality Responses to Changing Climate and Land Use/Cover in the Wolf Bay Watershed, South Alabama
(2010-11-17)
Land use/cover (LULC) and climate change are two main factors directly affecting regional hydrology and water quality. In this study, the future potential impacts of LULC and climate change on the hydrologic regimes and ...
Modeling hydrology and water quality in Moore's Mill Creek using the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM)
(2025-04-22)
Urban development has long been known to be disruptive of the hydrological cycle and surface water quality. The change from natural vegetation to impervious materials tends to result in larger quantities of stormwater ...
Modeling impact of Land Use/ Cover changes on Water Quality and Quantity of Fish River Watershed
(2010-07-13)
Hydrologic and water quality models are widely used for assessing the impacts of land use/cover (LULC) changes on water quality and quantity. However, their credibility for predicting LULC change impacts has not been tested ...
Modeling in Complex Large-Scale Topologies Applied to Urban Water Systems
(2025-08-05)
The increasing frequency of extreme rainfall events and the growing reliance on underground conveyance infrastructure have heightened the need for reliable simulation tools that can capture rapid pressurization and mixed‐flow ...
Modeling Inertial Measurement Units and Anlyzing the Effect of Their Errors in Navigation Applications
(2005-12-15)
In this thesis, a simple model that statistically represents an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) output has been studied. This model is then expanded to produce a model that incorporates terms that account for errors ...
Modeling Methane and Nitrous Oxide Exchanges between the Atmosphere and Terrestrial Ecosystems over North America in the Context of Multifactor Global Change
(2010-11-19)
Methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are two potent greenhouse gases which in sum contribute to more than one fourth of global warming caused by anthropogenic activities. In the meantime, CH4 and N2O play significant roles ...
Modeling of Frictional Gas Flow in a Piezoelectrically Actuated High-Pressure Microvalve for Flowrate Control
(2005-12-15)
One-dimensional modeling of frictional compressible gaseous flow through a high-pressure piezoelectrically-actuated microvalve is studied. Focusing on the micro-scale gap between the boss and seat plates, variations of ...
Modeling of Tensile Properties of Woven Fabrics and Auxetic Braided Structures by Multi-Scale Finite Element Method
(2013-12-05)
This study is undertaken to build an appropriate mechanical model for the analysis of mechanical properties of forming fabrics by incorporation of multi-scale modeling concept comprising micro-mechanical model, meso-mechanical ...
Modeling of the Wolf Bay and Perdido Bay Watersheds using HSPF
(2017-07-27)
This study is the first stage of the larger project for determining the transport mechanism of endocrine disruptors that flow through the Perdido Bay Basin. Given within are the methods and processes used to perform watershed ...
Modeling of Two Common Taste and Odor Compounds, 2-Methylisoborneol and Geosmin, for Settling Reservoirs in a Drinking Water Treatment Plant
(2026-04-23)
Harmful algae blooms are a worldwide concern that has recently regained attention due to the concern of climate change impacts. While algal bloom concerns have historically been centered around toxin producing algae, focus ...
Modeling of Warm Dense Plasmas for the Determination of Transport Properties and Equation of State
(2020-05-14)
We present the results of research studying the properties of dense plasmas using the average atom model. The average atom model is a physically reasonable statistical representation
of an atom in a plasma, and various ...
Modeling Service Performance and Dynamic Worker Allocation Policies for Order Fulfillment Systems
(2009-11-10)
In this dissertation, we propose several dynamic worker allocation
