Dynamic modeling, validation, and control for vapor compression systems
… emphasis is placed on conducting experimental validation at every stage. Both finite volume and switched moving boundary approaches for nonlinear control-oriented heat exchanger modeling are presented, illustrating the key differences in the method of discretization between these approaches. …

Large eddy simulations of premixed turbulent flame dynamics : combustion modeling, validation and analysis
… reduced chemistry mechanism, is utilized for modeling turbulence-combustion interactions at small scales. A novel dynamic formulation is proposed that explicitly incorporates the influence of strain on flame wrinkling by solving a transport equation for the latter rather than using …

Development and Validation of the Workplace Intergenerational Atmosphere Scale
<p>This dissertation details the development and validation of the Workplace Intergenerational Atmosphere (WIA) scale over two studies. Given the growing number of older adults in the American workforce and the possibility of four generations working side by side, the WIA scale was designed to …

Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis in Support of the NASA/Virginia Tech Benchmark Experiments
… methods of analysis, especially in the area of modeling separated flow. There exists a large demand for high-fidelity experimental data for turbulence modeling validation. Virginia Tech has joined NASA in a cooperative project to design and perform an experiment in the Virginia Tech Stability …

Naval ship propulsion and electric power systems selection for optimal fuel consumption
… and integrated power systems are analyzed. Modeling includes hull resistance using the Holtrop-Mennen method requiring only basic hull geometry information, propeller efficiencies using the Wageningen B series and transmission and prime movers fuel efficiencies. Propulsion and ship-service …

Analysis of Metal Plate Connected Wood Truss Assemblies under Out-of-Plane Loads
… fall arrest anchor loading were used for model validation. A parametric study considering loading location, joint stiffness and dimension of trusses was conducted. The structural analog of the MPCWT assemblies were found to have first truss deflections within 4% difference, thereby the models …
