The Simplest Quantified Modal Logic (SQML) is controversial because it seems to conflict with some of our most basic intuitions about what is possible and what is necessary. Two controversial principles, the Barcan Schema ...

The understanding of wall-bounded flows is of paramount importance in high-speed vehicle design. Estimating aircraft thermal and viscous loads require robust turbulence models that can accurately predict turbulent statistics ...

In this study the energy dissipation performance of machine augmented composite (MAC) materials is investigated. MAC materials are formed by inserting simple machines into a matrix material. In this work the machines ...

With approximately 15 to 20 percent of adults aged 65 and older living with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), researchers in neuropsychology have placed increasing emphasis in early detection to best preserve quality of ...

With the scale of interconnect number grows to billions, parasitic capacitance extraction speed is an important issue for fast turn-around time for designers. In this thesis, we propose to build a regression model for the ...

This research proposes a weak grid detection method that is a steady state screening method to identify clusters of buses where potential coordinated voltage oscillations could occur. The objectives of this method are to ...
