Pipelines for Computational Social Science Experiments and Model Building
… phenomena through iterative experiments and modeling. To reason about experiments and models, we design a formal data model. This combined approach of experiments and models has been done in some studies without automation, or purely conceptually. We are motivated by a particular social …

Data Driven Approaches to Model Building: Applications to Energy Industries
George Box’s famous quote “All models are wrong, but some are useful” is now widely known. Mathematical models can be built based on a combination of first principles and available data. The focus of this work is on the application of data-driven modelling approaches in two specific instances of …

Seismic Imaging and Velocity Model Building in the Thrace Region, Northwestern Turkey: A Case Study
The aim of this research is to apply several seismic processing and imaging techniques to a raw 3D-land dataset and examine the quality of the subsurface images. This study uses a 3D-seismic dataset in the Thrace region of northwest Turkey that was acquired by Turkish Petroleum in 2006 covering an …

Combining adaptive and designed statistical experimentation : process improvement, data classification, experimental optimization and model building
… experimental redundancy as well as greater model robustness. The number of extra runs is minimal because some are common and yet both methods provide estimates of the best setting. The second use of adaptive experimentation is in evolutionary operation. During regular system operation small, …

Tomographic velocity model building in high-fidelity seismic depth imaging of near surface and VSP settings
… between the raypath distribution and the model parameterization scheme. A reasonable model parametrization is the key to successful tomography applications, especially when the ray coverage is poor and uneven. Motivated by a geologically plausible model parameterization, the multiscale …

Usability Engineering Applied to an Electromagnetic Modeling Tool
There are very few software packages for model-building and visualization in electromagnetic geophysics, particularly when compared to other geophysical disciplines, such as seismology. The purpose of this thesis is to design, develop, and test a geophysical model-building interface that allows …

One-Dimensional Performance Modeling of Centrifugal Flow Vaned Diffusers
The Two Element in Series (TEIS) and Two Zone models stand out as powerful tools that enable deeper understanding of compressor stage designs after they have been tested. The insights gained from these investigations have aided in improving new stage designs. Up to now, it has only been possible to …

Computer-aided modeling and simulation of switching regulators
Switching regulators are modeled as an unterminated two-port circuit to provide flexibility in system model building. Each functional block of switching regulators is modeled as an independent module so that an arbitrary regulator can be configured. Unified models for large-signal and small-signal …
