From Telluric (Earth) To Tectonic (Sky)
My graduate thesis is a study of telluric and tectonic architecture. These two ideas inspired me to design a baseball stadium for the town of Blacksburg, Virginia that portrayed the contrasting concepts "of the earth" and "of the sky."

A study of the magneto-telluric method of prospecting
Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Geology and Geophysics, 1958.

Characterising Exoplanet Atmospheres with High-Resolution Transmission Spectroscopy
… I begin by assessing the robustness of telluric correction methods for removing contaminating telluric water and oxygen lines from high-resolution spectra. This is a challenging and critical task when observing from the ground since absorption from Earth’s atmosphere often overwhelms the …

Between Earth and Sky
… of mass, whereas the mass form is telluric, embedding itself deeper in the earth. One tends toward the light and the other toward dark. These gravitational opposites . . . may be said to symbolise the two cosmological opposites to which they aspire; the sky and the earth." Human …

Análise espectroscópica detalhada de estrelas candidatas a gêmeas solares
… own, besides being natural places to look for telluric planets harboring life forms similar to those known to us, and for the SETI program researches. Upon identification of HD146233 as the best ever solar twin (Porto de Mello & da Silva (1997)), a following survey (da Silva (2000)) identified …

Telescopes and Techniques for the High-Resolution Characterisation of Exoplanets
… compared. Doing so revealed that the removal of telluric contamination from infrared spectra should be treated carefully as it has the potential to introduce biases in detections of chemical species. If robust though, such HRDS detections could aid the tracing of exoplanets’ formation and …

Some investigations of organotellurium chemistry
… absorption of aqueous solutions was recorded. Telluric acid AR grade is used as a standard,

Cable train : a platform for in-situ manufacturing of underground cable
… of incompatible AC grids, and can be immune to telluric currents and aggressive EMP attacks, which all make these systems particularly applicable to connecting to remote renewables. With the current state-of-the-art in HVDC, overhead lines (OHL) are several times cheaper than underground cables …

Molecular Characterisation of Exoplanetary Atmospheres using High-Resolution Transmission Spectroscopy
… and consistent detrending method to correct for telluric and stellar features in high-resolution transmission spectra of exoplanets. In particular, we investigate the robustness of metrics used to optimise PCA-based detrending in the near-infrared. We confirm that optimising PCA detrending …

Reveries of a walk: Architectonics and an Attunement to Nature
Architecture has been primarily ocularcentric for the last century. This thesis proposes a more sensible approach to architecture. A multisensory experience that gives the user a deeper response to the building. Architecture can activate and engage multiple senses through the revelation of nature …
