Mantle Wedge Evolution beneath the Northern Mariana Forearc
… of a supra-subduction zone mantle wedge and how it has evolved in response to subduction of the Pacific Plate, forearc peridotites (dunites and harzburgites) were collected by dredging the landward slope of the Northern Mariana trench wall. High concentration of fluid mobile …

Complex Bogie Modeling Incorporating Advanced Friction Wedge Components
… a bolster, two spring nests, and four friction wedges. The two sideframes sit on the axels. The bolster rides on springs on top of the sideframes. The friction wedges also ride on springs on top of the sideframe, and are positioned between the bolster and sideframe, acting as a damping …

The role of aerothermochemistry in double cone and double wedge flows
… hypervelocity flows over double cone and double wedge geometries are studied. The flow configurations established over the double cone/double wedge models are extremely sensitive to thermochemistry, and thus serve as ideal benchmarks for validating chemical models. The goals of this research are: …

Stationary edge flames in a wedge with hydrodynamic variable-density interaction
… is introduced which places the edge flame in a wedge-shaped counterflow with a mass sink, providing control over the position of the edge flame, and allowing access to stationary, hydrodynamically-coupled retreating flames (at high strain). This framework is first used to evaluate edge flames …

Characterization of boundary conditions for wedge-lock-mounted printed circuit boards
… board. This thesis will investigate modeling the wedge locks as non-uniform translational and rotational springs. The first eight natural frequencies of a rectangular circuit board (with no components soldered to it, and with wedge locks along two edges) will be empirically determined. Eight …

Absarokites from the Western Mexican Volcanic Belt : constraints on mantle wedge conditions
… residue at depth -50 km depth in the mantle wedge. Unlike most lavas in the region, the absarokite has not ponded and fractionated at the crust mantle interface (-35-40 km), and the temperatures of multiple saturation indicate that the mantle wedge beneath the Jalisco block is hotter than …

Wedge failure analysis of anchored rock slopes subjected to surcharge and seismic loads
… types of slope failure, such as plane failure, wedge failure, toppling failure, buckling failure and circular failure, are often observed. The present work focuses on the study of the wedge failure, which occurs as sliding of a mass of rock on two intersecting planes, generally discontinuity …

STRUCTURAL STYLE VARIATIONS IN THE HIMALAYAN FRONT: IMPLICATIONS FOR WEDGE-TOP DEPOSITION, NEPAL
Deformation at the front of the Himalayan thrust wedge is focused along the Main Frontal Thrust (MFT) resulting in shortening of the Neogene foreland basin deposits since the Pleistocene. This research investigates variations in structural style along the MFT in the Dang Valley region, west-central …

Modeling of non-equilibrium effects on a double wedge configuration in hypersonic flows
… community. To this aim, the flow over a double wedge configuration is simulated for a nitrogen and air gas mixture at hypersonic conditions. The results are compared with experimental work performed at the University of Illinois by Austin and Swantek. The flow governing equations are discretized …

From Wedge Strategy to Kitzmiller: Rhetorical Analysis of the Intelligent Design Argument Series
Many scientific claims being made today are not based on established scientific principles. They are a result of motivating factors that include media, political influences, legal and social issues, economic pursuits, the experimental procedure itself, peer review, and, central to this thesis, the …
