Isolating advective signatures in temperature logs
… of Geophysics deals with the description of the thermal regime, its variation in time, and the associated processes. These processes can be quantified by their characteristic thermal signature observed in temperature records. Heat transfer in the Earth’s crust occurs primarily by thermal …

Nondestructive evaluation for hybrid-composite girder bridges
… of the concrete following placement based on the thermal signatures on the surface of the FRP shell.

Aerial Thermography in Archaeological Prospection: Applications & Processing
… potential for detecting anthropogenic anomalies. Thermal infrared radiation is absorbed and reemitted at varying rates by all objects on and within the ground depending upon their density, composition, and moisture content. If an area containing archaeological features is recorded at the moment …

Coastal meltwater plume detection and its response to melting variations around the Greenland Ice Sheet
… in the ocean by their surface salinity and thermal signatures achieved from satellite imagery. For my MPhil dissertation, I propose to use multi-year Landsat data to derive a time series of water plume location, size and shape using proxies for identifying suspended sediment, salinity and …

Advanced Reconstruction Techniques for CUORE: Searching Beyond the Standard Model with Cryogenic Calorimeters
… cryogenic calorimeter technique, resolving the thermal signatures from nuclear/particle interactions within crystal absorbers for precise determination of deposited energy. This work establishes methods and analysis techniques to treat CUORE as a segmented detector in aggregate, with a focus …

The Genetics Of Mosquito Heat-Seeking Behavior
… Aedes aegypti are exquisitely sensitive to thermal contrast, and are capable of heat-seeking in diverse ambient environmental temperatures. By seeking relative warmth and avoiding relative cool, mosquitoes can thermotax towards heated targets. However, mosquitoes also avoid stimuli …

Multi-Physics Sensing and Real-time Quality Control in Metal Additive Manufacturing
… keyhole, porosity formation, vapor plume, and thermal evolution in Ti-64 and 410 stainless steel. The study discovers a strong correlation between the thermal and X-ray data, enabling the feasibility of using relatively cheap IR cameras to predict features that can only be captured using costly …

Strongly correlated quantum fluids and effective thermalization in non-Markovian driven-dissipative photonic systems
… toward a steady-state presenting important non-thermal features. One one hand, an overwhelmingly large quantity of novel quantum phenomena is expected in the non-equilibrium framework, as breaking the thermal equilibrium condition releases severe constraints on the state of a quantum system and …
