The Design and Analysis of CRU Lifting and Placement Systems for Project Dune
(2025-08-21)The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is an international collaboration investigating neutrino physics. One of the key objectives is to understand the start of the universe. What causes asymmetry to occur between ... -
The Design and Development of Compact Toroid Injection System to Study Reconnection Dynamics in MST
(2024-08-23)This thesis details the design and development of an experimental setup to investigate compact toroid (CT) dynamics in tokamak plasmas, specifically on the MST device. The research aims to better understand how a CT traverses ... -
Design and Development of Structures, Installation Tools, Installation Procedures, and Models for the Vertical Drift Detector of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment
(2025-05-09)The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment’s (DUNE) goal is to measure the oscillation of neutrinos between their three flavor states. The measurement is performed by generating, selecting, and measuring a known flavor of ... -
DETERMINING THERMAL PROPERTIES FROM VISUAL IDENTIFICATION OF DRILL CUTTINGS AND THE LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT OF A DISTRICT-SCALE GEOTHERMAL EXCHANGE SYSTEM
(2024-12-20)Geothermal exchange systems consist of underground HDPE piping that is used to pump an exchanger fluid into the ground to either extract heat from or expel heat into the ground. When properly designed, geothermal exchange ... -
DETERMINISTIC METHODS ANALYSIS OF A GAS-COOLED INTERMEDIATE-FAST SPECRUM REACTOR
(2025-05-08)In this work a gas-cooled fast reactor (GFR) with a long fuel cycle being developed by General Atomics (GA) was modeled using the Argonne National Lab (ANL) code system PyARC which couples together deterministic solutions ... -
