Spatially resolved life cycle models for the environmental footprint of electricity generation
… impact of electricity generation requires linked simulations of power generation, air pollution physics and chemistry, greenhouse gas emissions, and water use. Tools for performing these analyses in an integrated manner are just beginning to emerge. This work expands on the development of …

A Complex, Linked Watershed-Reservoir Hydrology and Water Quality Model Application for the Occoquan Watershed, Virginia
… consisting of six HSPF and two CE-QUAL-W2 submodels linked in a complex way, has been developed and applied to simulate hydrology and water quality activities in the two major reservoirs and the associated drainage areas. The studied water quality constituents include temperature, dissolved …

The BOLD MRI response of the brain to alterations in arterial blood pressure
… pressure. Blood flow alterations are closely linked to neuronal activation, and this activity can be visualised using blood oxygenation level dependent magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD MRI) – functional MRI. The aim of this project is to investigate the effect of dynamic blood pressure stimuli …

Multiscale models of the metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy process
… growing film. In this thesis, new computational models are developed that work on specific length scales, models are linked together, and combined models are used to study the physics of actual deposition processes. A Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) model is developed in order to simulate surface …

Simulation of household in-home and transportation energy use : an integrated behavioral model for estimating energy consumption at the neighborhood scale
… patterns and, thus energy use. Nonetheless, models for evaluating energy demand often neglect the evolution of appliance & vehicle ownership and directly correlate consumption with static characteristics without explicit behavioral links. In this thesis I aim to provide a comprehensive method …
