▼ Atmospheric transport and dispersion (AT&D) forecasting in the stable boundary layer over complex terrain is inherently uncertain. An ensemble prediction system with sub-km horizontal grid spacing and high vertical resolution is used with the goal of quantifying this uncertainty. Diversity in initial conditions and/or planetary boundary layer/surface layer physics within the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model provides ensembles with up to 12 members. WRF explicit ensemble member data drive trajectory calculations and the Second-Order Closure Integrated Puff (SCIPUFF) model for hazard prediction. Explicit ensemble outcomes from SCIPUFF are compared against SCIPUFF forecasts driven by single members derived from the WRF ensemble and capable of leveraging ensemble wind-field uncertainty statistics. Ensemble performance is evaluated for both 1.3-km and 0.4-km horizontal-grid-spacing ensemble configurations for three case studies of differing flow regimes with respect to the Nittany Valley in central Pennsylvania. AT&D uncertainty is expected to be dependent on small-scale drainage flows and circulations related to trapped-lee wave activity over the valley. Results demonstrate that a 12-member ensemble provides reasonable spread in AT&D outcomes. Additionally, single-member SCIPUFF forecasts reflect much of the spatial spread and impact probability given by explicit SCIPUFF ensemble forecasts but at a reduced computational cost. When evaluated against meteorological observations from the Rock Springs observation network within the valley, ensemble performance statistics demonstrate that low-level wind and temperature forecasts exhibit a statistically significant improvement in the 0.4-km configuration forecasts over the 1.3-km configuration forecasts. Analysis reveals that sub-km horizontal grid spacing better captures temperature and wind fluctuations related to drainage flows and trapped-lee wave activity that directly impact AT&D, and in general, the sub-km ensemble reliably samples the true state of these low-level variables. The best forecast skill is given by the full 12-member ensemble configuration involving both initial-condition and physics diversity. In the trapped-lee wave cases, the use of localized data assimilation positively impacts overall probabilistic forecast skill while the drainage flow case appears more dependent on model physics than initialization strategy with the available observations.

▼ Ground motions from earthquakes are known to be affected by earth's surface topography. Topographic effects are a result of several physical phenomena such as the focusing or defocusing of seismic waves reflected from a topographic feature and the interference between direct and diffracted seismic waves. This typically causes an amplification of ground motion on convex features such as hills and ridges and a de-amplification on concave features such as valleys and canyons. Topographic effects are known to be frequency dependent and the spectral accelerations can sometimes reach high values causing significant damages to the structures located on the feature. Topographically correlated damage pattern have been observed in several earthquakes and topographic amplifications have also been observed in several recorded ground motions. This phenomenon has also been extensively studied through numerical analyses. Even though different studies agree on the nature of topographic effects, quantifying these effects have been challenging. The current literature has no consensus on how to predict topographic effects at a site. With population centers growing around regions of high seismicity and prominent topographic relief, such as California, and Japan, the quantitative estimation of the effects have become very important. In this dissertation, we address this shortcoming by developing empirical models that predict topographic effects at a site. These models are developed through an extensive empirical study of recorded ground motions from two large strong-motion datasets namely the California small to medium magnitude earthquake dataset and the global NGA-West2 datasets, and propose topographic modification factors that quantify expected amplification or deamplification at a site. To develop these models, we required a parameterization of topography. We developed two types of topographic parameters at each recording stations. The first type of parameter is developed using the elevation data around the stations, and comprise of parameters such as smoothed slope, smoothed curvature, and relative elevation. The second type of parameter is developed using a series of simplistic 2D numerical analysis. These numerical analyses compute an estimate of expected 2D topographic amplification of a simple wave at a site in several different directions. These 2D amplifications are used to develop a family of parameters at each site. We study the trends in the ground motion model residuals with respect to these topographic parameters to determine if the parameters can capture topographic effects in the recorded data. We use statistical tests to determine if the trends are significant, and perform mixed effects regression on the residuals to develop functional forms that can be used to predict topographic effect at a site. Finally, we compare the two types of parameters, and their topographic predictive power. Advisors/Committee Members: Rodriguez-Marek, Adrian (committeechair), Green, Russell A.

▼ The field strength prediction chart is a set of statistical curves obtained through the analysis of huge amount of field strength measurement data of the specific radio band in some area. It reflects the natural or artificial effects such as geography, atmospheric condition and buildings, etc. that affect the radio wave propagation. One advantage is that we can predict the rough relationship between the field strength and distance easily. As a result, we donât have to perform simulation field measurement in every radio planning. With prediction chart and field strength interference /protection ratio standard, we can suggest a minimum distance separation criterion between co-channel and adjacent channel broadcasting stations. It also provides a reference to authority to examine the broadcasting service application. The FCC develops the F(50,50) charts and minimum separation between radio stations base on data collected in the U.S.. Presently, the regulations concerning the broadcasting applications in Taiwan still follow the FCCâs suggestion. In general, the field strength distribution is affected by two main factors: geography and atmospheric condition, which can be different from those in the U.S.. With the acquisition of digital terrain data of Taiwan, the terrain profile for a given path can be generated. In this thesis, weâll use Deygout model and the database of existed broadcasting stations to generate field strength distribution database for each station and analyze the database to develop the prediction chart that is suitable for the propagation environment in Taiwan. When combine with the field strength interference /protection ratio standard, weâll provide a minimum distance separation criterion of co-channel and adjacent channel in the FM band broadcasting stations. Our study can help the authority to achieve the most effective spectrum management in FM band.

▼ The foot, ankle and surrounding musculature play key roles in walking and maneuvering. They provide not only body support but also forward propulsion, terrain adaptation, and contributions to mediolateral balance control. Prosthetic feet have previously been designed to provide body support and, to some degree, forward propulsion and sagittal-plane terrain adaptation. However, there has been little exploration of how prosthesis design affects performance in tasks that challenge mediolateral balance, such as turning and walking on cross-slopes. In Chapter 2, the effects of prosthetic foot stiffness on unilateral transtibial amputee gait during turning were explored. Changes found in sagittal-plane kinematics and kinetics caused by more compliant prostheses were similar to those seen previously in studies of straight-line walking. This included decreased body support, increased residual limb propulsion and greater limb flexion. Mediolateral balance, measured by peak-to-peak range of whole-body angular momentum, improved with decreasing stiffness, but adaptations in coronal-plane angles, work and ground reaction force impulses were less systematic. In Chapter 3, forward dynamics simulations of a unilateral transtibial amputee stepping on a cross-slope were used to identify optimal coronal-plane stiffness profiles that improved balance control by decreasing changes in coronal-plane whole-body angular momentum. Profiles that decreased these changes were identified for ankle-inverting and ankle-everting cross-slopes as well as level ground. The change in coronal-plane whole-body angular momentum decreased with an increase in stiffness for ankle-everting cross-slopes but with a decrease in stiffness for ankle-inverting cross-slopes and level ground. Stiffness profiles influenced mediolateral balance control through the medial GRF, but were specific to each surface type. These results highlight the need to identify the surface type encountered (level, ankle-inverting or ankle-everting cross-slope) so that the stiffness profile appropriate for the surface can be set. To that end, in Chapter 4, measurements from the residual limb useful for predicting a cross-slope with a pattern recognition algorithm were identified. Residual limb kinematics, especially measurements from the foot, shank and ankle, were found to successfully predict the surface type with high accuracy. These studies have provided rationale and foundation for designing prostheses that help maintain mediolateral balance control when encountering turning or uneven terrain.

▼ Le phénomène de coup de terrain est une explosion violente de roche qui peut se produire dans les mines souterraines. Dans la présente recherche, nous avons essayé de démontrer les causes qui peuvent influer sur la prédisposition aux coups de terrain en utilisant la modélisation numérique. Cependant, avant tout, l'état de contrainte avant l'exploitation minière et les contraintes induites par les excavations environnantes doivent être étudiés avec précision. La mine de charbon de Provence, qui a subi un phénomène de coup de terrain au niveau de son puits vertical entouré de nombreux panneaux de longue taille, a été choisie comme cas d’étude. Un modèle numérique 3D à grande échelle a été construit pour inclure la zone du puits vertical avec ses piliers et galeries à petite échelle et les panneaux de longue taille à grande échelle avec leurs zones de foudroyage associées. Plusieurs problèmes ont été rencontrés lors du développement de ce modèle numérique à grande échelle. Le premier porte sur l'initialisation de l'état de contrainte à grande échelle, où les contraintes verticales mesurées divergent avec le poids des déblais et les contraintes in situ sont très anisotropes. Le deuxième porte sur la simulation de la zone de foudroyage associée aux panneaux de longue taille. Le troisième concerne l'évaluation de l’instabilité du pilier en fonction de son ratio résistance/contrainte moyenne et de son volume. Le quatrième concerne l'évaluation de la prédisposition aux coups de terrain au niveau du puits vertical en fonction de différents critères. Cinq méthodes ont été développées pour initialiser l’état de contrainte hétérogène dans le modèle numérique à grande échelle avant l’exploitation minière. Elles sont basées sur la méthode de corrélation Simplex, qui consiste à optimiser la différence entre les valeurs de contrainte mesurées in-situ et les valeurs numériques. Le but est de développer des gradients qui soient capables d'exprimer l'hétérogénéité de la contrainte et qui soient compatibles avec les mesures in-situ. La méthode basée sur l’initialisation de l'état de contrainte avec des gradients 3D s’est avérée plus efficace que celle traditionnelle basée sur les ratios de contrainte horizontale à verticale. Concernant la simulation du foudroyage, trois modèles ont été développés et intégrés dans le modèle numérique pour exprimer le comportement mécanique dans la zone de foudroyage au-dessus des panneaux de longue taille. Deux d’entre eux sont basés sur un comportement élastique alors que le troisième est basé sur un comportement elasto-plastique avec écrouissage un phénomène de consolidation. Il a été constaté que la zone de foudroyage au-dessus des panneaux de longue taille peut atteindre 32 fois l'épaisseur de la couche exploitée et que le module d'élasticité de la partie la plus endommagée de la zone foudroyée ne doit pas excéder 220 MPa pour satisfaire la convergence toit-mur. Mais, avec l'avancée de l'exploitation, ce matériau souple se compacte sous la pression des couches supérieures. Dans le cas d'une largeur… Advisors/Committee Members: Al-Heib, Marwan (thesis director), Gunzburger, Yann (thesis director).

▼ Résumé : Le CLW (Chiasson, Lasnier et Whittom, 2005), un test à doubles marches sous-maximal (Step test) qui mesure le VO[indice inférieur 2max], requiert peu d’espace et exige 6 min 30 s à réaliser. Or, est-ce que le CLW peut remplacer un test de course comme le test navette de 20 mètres (Léger et Gadoury, 1989) ou le 12 minutes de Cooper (Cooper, 1968) lorsque l’espace n’est pas adéquat pour les effectuer? Soixante étudiants (es) du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue âgés de 17 à 20 ans ont été sélectionnés à l’intérieur des cours d’éducation physique et ont accompli les trois tests physiques. L’objectif premier était de vérifier la capacité du CLW à prédire les résultats des tests de course navette de 20 mètres (Léger et Gadoury, 1989) et le 12 minutes de Cooper (Cooper, 1968). Deuxièmement, connaître si l’ajout d’un troisième palier au CLW était nécessaire pour une meilleure similarité entre les tests. Finalement, déterminer si une catégorisation des résultats permet une meilleure concordance. Cette étude n’a pas été en mesure de démontrer que le CLW est capable de prédire les performances des tests de course navette de 20 mètres et le 12 minutes de Cooper chez les étudiants du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Par le fait même, l’ajout d’un troisième palier n’améliore pas de façon significative la capacité du CLW à prédire les performances des tests de course. Toutefois, le CLW s’avère être un meilleur prédicteur de la performance chez les femmes lorsque nous comparons les données brutes du VO[indice inférieur 2max]. Étant donné certaines faiblesses de cette étude, dont l’absence d’une mesure directe, nous recommandons des recherches futures pour comparer ces trois tests à une mesure directe du VO[indice inférieur 2max] pour déterminer lequel de ces tests est le plus approprié pour la clientèle générale du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue. // Abstract : The CLW (Chiasson and Lasnier Whittom , 2005), a double steps test to measure VO[subscript 2max], has the advantage of being submaximal , to require little space and require only 6 min 30 s to achieve. Is the CLW can replace a running test as 20 meters shuttle test (Léger and Gadoury, 1989) or 12 minutes of Cooper (Cooper, 1968) when the space is not adequate to perform those running tests? Until now, no writing is not publicly available on the CLW and no one has yet measured the capacity of CLW to predict performance in the 20 meters shuttle test and test 12 minutes Cooper. Sixty students, divided by sex, selected within the physical education classes, have completed those physical tests. The objective of this research was to verify the capacity of CLW to predict the results of 20 meters shuttle run and the 12-minutes Cooper. In a second step, compared the results obtained to know if adding a third level to CLW is necessary for a better match between these tests. Finally, we grouped the values in class to determine if we can get a better result.

▼ Résumé : Le CLW (Chiasson, Lasnier et Whittom, 2005), un test à doubles marches sous-maximal (Step test) qui mesure le VO[indice inférieur 2max], requiert peu d’espace et exige 6 min 30 s à réaliser. Or, est-ce que le CLW peut remplacer un test de course comme le test navette de 20 mètres (Léger et Gadoury, 1989) ou le 12 minutes de Cooper (Cooper, 1968) lorsque l’espace n’est pas adéquat pour les effectuer? Soixante étudiants (es) du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue âgés de 17 à 20 ans ont été sélectionnés à l’intérieur des cours d’éducation physique et ont accompli les trois tests physiques. L’objectif premier était de vérifier la capacité du CLW à prédire les résultats des tests de course navette de 20 mètres (Léger et Gadoury, 1989) et le 12 minutes de Cooper (Cooper, 1968). Deuxièmement, connaître si l’ajout d’un troisième palier au CLW était nécessaire pour une meilleure similarité entre les tests. Finalement, déterminer si une catégorisation des résultats permet une meilleure concordance. Cette étude n’a pas été en mesure de démontrer que le CLW est capable de prédire les performances des tests de course navette de 20 mètres et le 12 minutes de Cooper chez les étudiants du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Par le fait même, l’ajout d’un troisième palier n’améliore pas de façon significative la capacité du CLW à prédire les performances des tests de course. Toutefois, le CLW s’avère être un meilleur prédicteur de la performance chez les femmes lorsque nous comparons les données brutes du VO[indice inférieur 2max]. Étant donné certaines faiblesses de cette étude, dont l’absence d’une mesure directe, nous recommandons des recherches futures pour comparer ces trois tests à une mesure directe du VO[indice inférieur 2max] pour déterminer lequel de ces tests est le plus approprié pour la clientèle générale du cégep de l’Abitibi-Témiscamingue. // Abstract : The CLW (Chiasson and Lasnier Whittom , 2005), a double steps test to measure VO[subscript 2max], has the advantage of being submaximal , to require little space and require only 6 min 30 s to achieve. Is the CLW can replace a running test as 20 meters shuttle test (Léger and Gadoury, 1989) or 12 minutes of Cooper (Cooper, 1968) when the space is not adequate to perform those running tests? Until now, no writing is not publicly available on the CLW and no one has yet measured the capacity of CLW to predict performance in the 20 meters shuttle test and test 12 minutes Cooper. Sixty students, divided by sex, selected within the physical education classes, have completed those physical tests. The objective of this research was to verify the capacity of CLW to predict the results of 20 meters shuttle run and the 12-minutes Cooper. In a second step, compared the results obtained to know if adding a third level to CLW is necessary for a better match between these tests. Finally, we grouped the values in class to determine if we can get a better result. This study did not demonstrate the CLW is able to predict the performance of 20 meters shuttle run test and 12… Advisors/Committee Members: Côté, Charles.
