▼ An accurate statistical representation of hydrological processes is of paramount importance to evaluate the uncertainty of the present scenario and make reliable predictions in a changing climate. A wealth of historic data has been made available in the last decades, including a consistent amount of remote sensing imagery describing the spatio-temporal nature of climatic and hydrological processes. The statistics based on such data are quite robust and reliable. However, to explore their variability, most stochastic simulation methods are based on low-order statistics that can only represent the heterogeneity up to a certain degree of complexity. In the recent years, the stochastic hydrogeology group of the University of Neuchâtel has developed a multiple-point simulation method called Direct Sampling (DS). DS is a resampling technique that allows the preservation of the complex data structure by simply generating data patterns similar to the ones found in the historical data set. Contrarily to the other multiple-point methods, DS can simulate either categorical or continuous variables, or a combination of both in a multivariate framework. In this thesis, the DS algorithm is adapted to the simulation of rainfall and climate variables in both time and space. The developed stochastic weather or climate generators include the simulation of the target variable with a series of auxiliary variables describing some aspects of the complex statistical structure characterizing the simulated process. These methods are tested on real application cases including the simulation of rainfall time-series from different climates, the variability exploration of future climate change scenarios, the missing data simulation within flow rate time-series and the simulation of spatial rainfall fields at different scales. If a representative training data set is used, the proposed methodologies can generate realistic simulations, preserving fairly well the statistical properties of the heterogeneity. Moreover, these techniques result to be practical simulation tools, since they are adaptive to different data sets with minimal effort from the user perspective. Although leaving large room for improvement, the proposed simulation approaches show a good potential to explore the variability of complex hydrological processes without the need of a complex statistical model.

▼ Parametric excitation of the DWSC (Deep Water Stable Craneship) is studied in this thesis. It occurs for a system without any external forcing, when one of the coefficients in the equation of motion (EOM) modeling the system varies with time. Parametric instability might be triggered for certain values of the parameters describing the time-varying coefficient. The DWSC, basically a stepped classic spar with a catamaran as its deck, because of certain unique features, may be susceptible to parametric excitation. This thesis examines the phenomenon of parametric excitation with respect to roll motion in head seas, using time-domain simulation and stability analysis. It examines the DWSC's susceptibility to parametric instability using the same methods of analysis and the effect of damping (especially viscous drag) on parametric excitation and instability. The thesis uses Mathieu's equation as the basis for stability analysis and time-simulates the coupled heave-sway-roll EOM. Time-domain simulation is done for two reasons: firstly for determining the variation in roll stiffness because of a regular wave (the variation in roll stiffness is an input to the stability analysis) and secondly for simulating the coupled heave-sway-roll EOM. Both time-domain analysis and stability analysis are done for sea states of interest and for examining interesting phenomena like roll resonance (due to body-wave interaction) and parametric instability. Results highlight: 1) a "cancellation frequency" in the heave wave exciting force; 2) the effect of viscous drag on coupled heave-sway-roll motions; 3) time-simulations validating the stability analysis; 4) the trend of stability with increasing sea states, wave periods and amplitudes; 5) characteristics of parametric instability; 6) the methodology used to predict or detect parametric instability and 7) the effect of viscous drag on parametric instability.

▼ Parametric design is a new approach to architectural design based on the concept ofparameters. It utilises parameters to set relations between design elements in order todefine a range of formal alternatives. In this sense, parametric design provides greatopportunities for architects to engineer the design process more efficiently; yet itsnovelty generates some challenges for architectural practitioners. The aim of thisresearch is to explore the position of parametric design in contemporary architecturalpractices, identifying its advantages and disadvantages in comparison with traditionalcomputer-aided design (CAD). Specifically, the research will compare the theoreticalknowledge and the statements made by theorists and scholars of parametric design tothe statements of practicing architects benefitting from the parametric approach.This aim is achieved through three thematic parts. The first part investigatesthe design process through two points of view, focusing on the notions of ‘role’ and‘driver’. The second part identifies the position of parametric design in practice,specifically focusing on whether it is a style or just a set of techniques. Finally, the thirdpart explores the advantages and disadvantages of parametric design and itsdistinctions in comparison to traditional CAD and Building Information Modelling (BIM).The research uses the qualitative method based on semi-structured interviews withpracticing architects. It also benefits from a two-page questionnaire, which is carriedout to get some detailed and specific data regarding the parametric realm.The outcome of this research shows that, in spite of theoretical statementssuggesting otherwise, parametric design can be undertaken without the use ofcomputer programs. Software packages facilitate the process of design. Furthermore,the interviews conducted with architects in practice show that they believe inparametric design as a set of techniques. They do not recognise the new style‘parametricism’. Advisors/Committee Members: DOUCET, ISABELLE IHL, Yaneva, Albena, Doucet, Isabelle.

▼ It is generally accepted that the restrictions of digital parametric design tools (DPDT’s) are currently shifting. Technology and interface can be engineered to overcome many complex problems within architectural processes, yet this does not necessarily mean solutions are easier to obtain; quite the opposite can occur. As architectural practitioners lean more towards the ubiquitous use of digital processes the decisions made by the designer can be overshadowed by the advantages of time saving technologies and heuristic rules of thumb. The various inherent interfaces of digital processes tend to conceal the real complexity and nuance of the set of possible solutions and analyses. The awareness of the workings of the tools and processes from a ‘base principle’ point of view could be a weak point in regards to the uptake by a new generation of architects who experience a growing simplification of interfaces within new digital design processes. This poses a problem for a profession which seeks to integrate technical skills knowledge into wider, sometimes loosely structured, set of processes. This research highlights the problems faced by architects, students, and specialists who aspire to apply innovative digital processes in a strategic manner. The concern which arises is this lack of understanding of how tools could be used reduces the ability to integrate them within design process. Theoretical literature falls short in providing robust guidance to the application of illunderstood design tools, further compounding the sincere integration of practical solutions. There are ways forward for developers to create new and updated tools, such as form modellers, design aids, and optimisation helpers, but these do not necessarily meet their full potential in providing integrated solutions. It is possible to improve our understanding of these potentials by looking at how these tools can be used in both practical and theoretical terms. In this thesis this is done by framing and answering the following research question: What are the characteristics of some of the observed issues and obstacles revealed in the practical application of digital parametric design tools in architecture? This question is adopted so that the obstacles of DPDT’s may be better understood and allow for better integration, better design outcomes, and better future use of powerful latent potential. This research defines the process of parametric design through analysis of literature and applies this to participantobserver case studies. It finds that a clarification of particular issues and obstacles can be useful to improved understanding of DPDT’s and that certain qualitative characteristics of these obstacles can constrain applications and avenues of exploration.

▼ This dissertation reports on an investigation of fifteen second-semester calculus students' understanding of the concept of parametric function, as a special relation from a subset of R to a subset of R2. A substantial amount of research has revealed that the concept of function, in general, is very difficult for students to understand. Furthermore, several studies have investigated students' understanding of various types of functions. However, very little is known about how students reason about parametric functions. This study aims to fill this gap in the literature. Employing Action – Process – Object – Schema (APOS) theory as the guiding theoretical perspective, this study proposes a preliminary genetic decomposition for how a student might construct the concept of parametric function. To determine whether the students in this study made the constructions called for by the preliminary genetic decomposition or other constructions not considered in the preliminary genetic decomposition, data is analyzed regarding students' reasoning about parametric functions. In particular, this study explores (1) students' personal definitions of parametric function; (2) students' reasoning about parametric functions given in the form p(t)=(f(t),g(t)); (3) students' reasoning about parametric functions on a variety of tasks, such as converting from parametric to standard form, sketching a plane curve defined parametrically, and constructing a parametric function to describe a real-world situation; and (4) students' reasoning about the invariant relationship between two quantities varying simultaneously when described in both a graph and a real-world problem. Then the genetic decomposition is revised based on the results of the data analysis. This study concludes with implications for teaching the concept of parametric function and suggestions for further research on this topic.

▼ Architects use computers predominantly to digitise a design process that has been in use prior to the advent of the computer. Traditional analogue concepts are transferred into and sculpted through the digital world but the overall process has remained mostly unchanged for decades. Merely digitising a known process does not utilise the full power of the computer and its near limitless ability to compute. For an architect, design of the built environment is highly important especially if they are to optimise the physical, phenomenological and psychological aspects of the space. The process of designing an architectural space is riddled with possibilities or variables that architects have used historically to aid in the design of the built environment, including but not limited to: object relationships, climate, site conditions, history, habitibility and the clients input - all project requirements that must somehow be quantified into a built object. This information is key for an architect as it will inform and form the architecture which is to be designed for the project at hand. This information, however useful, is not easy to integrate into every aspect of the design without intensive planning, problem solving and an exploration of almost an infinite number of possibilities. This is where parametric design can be used to aid in the design. More of the fundamental aspects of the information gathered in a project can be programmed into a computer as parameters or relationships. Once this information has been quantified, the designer can run through iterations of a design which are defined by these parameters. This is not a random process. It is controlled by the designer and the outcome is a product of how the architect designs the parameters, or relationships between components of the design. Parametric design offers a shift from merely digitising design ideas to using programmed constraints derived through the design process to influence and augment the design envisioned by the architect. Parametric design allows the system to be changed holistically and updated through the alteration of individual components that will then impact the form of the design as a whole – creating a non-linear process that is connected throughout all design phases. This thesis seeks to explore parametric design through its implementation within a group design project to decipher how a parametric process grounded in an understanding of contemporary digital fabrication can inform architectural space. To explore parametric design, this thesis will practice this re-envisioned design process through three design phases. The first phase is the foundational knowledge stage where the applications of digital workflow, computer models, tools and material explorations are examined. Second is the production of a prototype to investigate lessons learnt from phase one and apply these lessons to an actual parametric system used to design a prototype. The final stage will be a developed design process that will further explore a parametric system… Advisors/Committee Members: Sweet, Kevin.

▼ Optical source generation has attracted significant attention recently, especially in fiber optical communications. Today there is a growing a demand for optical source generation beyond conventional telecommunication wavelength bands. However, high quality and versatile optical source is generally not available over those wavelength bands due to the lack of efficient gain medium. Thanks to fiber optical parametric amplifier (FOPA), which is based on the third order nonlinear susceptibility of optical fibers, offers ultrafast response, wide-gain bandwidth, high gain and large frequency detune from the pump, serves as a promising candidate for signal amplification over those wavelength bands. By using the corresponding fiber optical parametric oscillator (FOPO) configuration, widely tunable source from continuous-wave (CW) to sub-picosecond pulses can be potentially generated to serve different applications from communication to biomedical imaging. In this thesis, we first demonstrate an all-fiber widely-tunable picosecond FOPO using highly-nonlinear fiber (HNLF). The tuning range is as wide as 250 nm, which is higher than previous picosecond FOPOs reported in the 1550-nm region. Second, time-dispersion tuning of the FOPO is investigated with fixed pump wavelength. It is a relatively simple and economic approach, and there will be no filter induced cavity loss. We then describe using FOPO to generated nearly-transform limited sub-picosecond pulses with a 60-nm tuning range. Another FOPO with a tuning range of 440-nm with dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF) as the gain medium is proposed and demonstrated. Compared with FOPOs demonstrated using HNLF as the gain medium, the use of DSF offers two key advantages: a wider tuning range and a narrower linewidth. In addition to picosecond FOPO, CW FOPO is also of great interest in fiber optical communications and biomedical imaging. We also demonstrate an all-fiber CW single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) FOPO with tuning range covers the S and L bands. SLM oscillation with a side-mode suppression ratio greater than 43 dB is achieved, which has been extended to 1-μm region under stable operation. Apart from static tuning, dynamic wavelength tuning of the FOPO is also discussed in this thesis with a cumulative speed exceeds 4,000,000 nm/s, which is higher than previous work reported in wavelength-swept FOPOs. The high-speed swept source would be useful in biomedical imaging and sensing applications. The amplification of the sub-picosecond pulses of the FOPO output is also investigated, for the first time to our knowledge, by using a fiber optical parametric chirped pulse amplifier(FOPCPA).The totally fiber-integrated nature of the whole system allows complete self-alignment and further integration to other fiber-based systems. All these research effort will show the versatility of FOPO techniques for generating wide range of optical sources for varies applications. These schemes may be useful in generating CW and short pulse for potential optical communication and biomedical imaging in…

▼ Reflection on open-ended and metastable architecture. Metastability is a term which describes the extended duration of certain equilibria acquired by a complex system when leaving its most stable state after an external action. The parameters of such "excited" system may eventually reach and hold stationary values (a metastable state) but then, after a long time, (spontaneously or under a slight external action) parameters will start changing again. Considering the contemporary technological level and multiple scientific insights into natural systems that reflects similar tendencies, it is not hard to imagine an open ended architectural design that across its life span reveals metastable qualities. Even the most sophisticated building, designed in reference to a particular environment, is not permanently suitable. First of all, due to the impact of the building on its environment, for which it was initially designed. Second, due to an unpredictable and dynamic field of external stimuli that might trigger changes in the environment. In both cases, a solution that seemed to be suitable for environmental embodiment, turn out to be a more or less accurate experiment, that has no embedded capability to facilitate environmental feedback for the means of its adjustment. Creating fixed built environment solutions, that do not incorporate feedback into building evolution across its live span, can be literally compared with creating a house with fixed glazing, without the possibility to control the air flow throughout the building. Informational system developed for Almere Pampus Transferium assumes the absence of permanent stasis and operate onto metastable frames. An associated research incorporates computational mechanisms inspired by natural form emergence and evolution, not only in the design process, but also in its execution and evolution. Those mechanisms, while inspired by nature, do not necessary mimic its aesthetics. Their value is rather in providing effective and adjustable embodiments, whose emergence can be directly linked with the environment, initiating a mutual and continuous self-regulating feedback loop. The application of developed informational systems in an architectural design goes in parallel with embodiments capable of handling fluctuating data flows. Parametric structural system used in a building is a the same time modular and customised, which means that within its parametrical boundaries new extensions of the building required in time, can be automatically adjusted to current conditions and connected with the existing parts of the building. Even more flexibility along buildings life span is provided by double skin system. Main structure of the building is covered with single glazed facade that provides condition for functionalities where precise climate control is not required. Internal volumes, at the other hand, placed inside the main structural frames, provides advanced climate control for all sorts of potential activities. At the level where big and open spaces, created by main… Advisors/Committee Members: Biloria, N., Bier, H., Sobota, M..

▼ Architects are often unaware of details, constraints, and variables that define and deliver architectural components. Many factors such as constructability, budget, or scheduling commitments, force changes to design concepts – potentially resulting in time-consuming redesign or loss of design aspirations – because incorporation of fabrication and expert knowledge occurs too late in the process. At the same time, fabricators, obligated to re-model these components – typically via error-prone manual translation – may be unaware of critical architectural properties envisioned but difficult to represent in design intent documents. The focus of this dissertation is to establish a new framework for coordination among project actors, linking currently disparate global and local descriptions of architectural intent and corresponding components via parametric digital models, with the aim of improving representations, enabling more informed conversations, and streamlining exchanges during early stages of design. In order to show the potential of this framework, research is focused on architectural precast concrete façades. Building façades are especially relevant to both architectural theory and practice as they are critical to a buildings’ character but remarkably complex in assembly. The architectural precast façade offers, in particular, a system whose parts are discreet through surface panelization, customizable via extensive features, and fundamental to the overall buildings’ aesthetic. Protocols and techniques for generating and linking customizable digital models for coordination are documented for a variety of surface patterns and panel feature types found in precedent buildings with architectural precast concrete façades. These models are used to demonstrate the process of developing parametric maps, both as a means of engaging issues of fabrication in early stages of design as well as to demonstrate benefits of incorporating such maps in future state workflows. Knowledge gained from recording various processes undertaken, conversations held, and documents produced by precast fabricators during the shop drawing phase of their work informs the parametric maps from both global and local perspectives. The strategies from the precedent analysis are then implemented through the exploration of design and fabrication issues raised by novel student proposals. The research suggests that the current disconnect between architectural intent and fabrication knowledge contributes to limited design exploration, and ultimately, reduces use of architectural precast concrete façades and furthermore, that linked digital models can stimulate interaction between designers and fabricators – bridging currently disparate workflows and value systems – while simultaneously enabling design exploration, incorporating fabrication details, and allowing new opportunities for precast buildings to emerge.

▼ Cette thèse présente une étude des premiers peignes de fréquences auto-référencés basés sur des lasers à disques semi-conducteurs (SDLs) à modes verrouillés en phase. L’avènement des peignes de fréquences stabilisés basés sur des lasers à impulsions ultra-courtes a permis une avancée significative et de nombreuses applications dans divers domaines de la physique, de la spectroscopie et de la métrologie. Les peignes de fréquences optiques peuvent être utilisés comme une règle de mesure dans le domaine des fréquences fournissant un lien direct et cohérent entre les fréquences optiques et micro-ondes. Bien que les peignes de fréquences optiques aient révolutionné de nombreux domaines scientifiques, ils n'ont pas encore pénétré les marchés à grande échelle. Pour cela, les sources laser doivent être améliorées, en ciblant une haute fiabilité tout en gardant la source compacte et économiquement attractive. Les SDLs à impulsions ultra-courtes, également appelés lasers à cavité verticale externe à émission de surface ou VECSELs (de l’anglais vertical external-cavity surface-emitting lasers), constituent une source laser très prometteuse à cet égard de par la technologie des semi-conducteurs qui permet une production de masse à faible coût. Ils rendent possibles des configurations de lasers très compactes et présentent une grande flexibilité dans leur longueur d'onde d’émission grâce à l'ingénierie de bandes. En outre, ils ne souffrent pas d'instabilités de mode déclenché (Q-switching) et un fonctionnement stable en verrouillage de mode a été démontré à des taux de répétition allant de 100 MHz à 100 GHz. Les peignes de fréquences à taux de répétition élevés ont une puissance accrue par mode, ce qui est bénéfique pour des applications telles que l'astronomie ou la génération de signaux micro-ondes à faible bruit. La stabilisation des deux degrés de liberté du laser à verrouillage de mode, la fréquence de répétition et la fréquence du décalage de phase entre la porteuse et l'enveloppe (carrier-envelope offset en anglais, CEO) est nécessaire pour la plupart des applications. Cependant, la détection de la fréquence CEO est difficile et aucune stabilisation n'avait été obtenue auparavant pour un laser à semi-conducteur à impulsions ultra-courtes. La détection de la fréquence CEO est généralement effectuée à l'aide d'une méthode d'auto-référencement qui nécessite un spectre cohérent couvrant une octave de fréquence. Ce dernier peut être généré en utilisant des fibres optiques hautement non linéaires telles que des fibres à cristaux photoniques (photonic crystal fibers en anglais, PCFs). Afin de maintenir la cohérence durant le processus d'élargissement spectral, des impulsions ultra-courtes dans le domaine des femtosecondes (typiquement <200 fs) avec une puissance de crête de l’ordre du kilowatt sont nécessaires. Cependant, même si des puissances maximales allant jusqu'à 6.3 kW et des durées d'impulsion allant jusqu'à 96 fs ont été démontrées pour des SDLs, la combinaison des deux n'a pas… Advisors/Committee Members: Thomas (Dir.).

▼ Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (NMR) is a powerful technique for rapid and efficient quantitation of compounds in chemical samples. NMR causes the nuclei in the molecules to resonate and various chemical arrangements appear as peaks in the Fourier spectrum of a free induction decay (FID). The spectral parameters elicited from the peaks serve as a fingerprint of the chemical components contained in the molecule. These fingerprints can be employed to understand the chemical structure. Signal acquired from a NMR spectrometer is ideally modelled as a superposition of multiple damped complex exponentials (cisoids) in Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). The number as well as the spectral parameters of the cisoids need to be estimated for characterisation of the underlying chemicals. The estimation, however, suffers from numerous difficulties in practice. These include: unknown number of cisoids, large signal length, large dynamic range, large peak density, and numerous distortions caused by experimental artefacts. This thesis aims at the development of estimators that, in view of the above-mentioned practical features, are capable of rapid, high-resolution and apriori-information-free quantitation of NMR signals. Moreover, for the analytic evaluation of the performance of such estimators, the thesis aims to derive interpretable analytic results for the fundamental estimation theory tool for assessing the performance of an unbiased estimator: the Cramer Rao Lower Bound (CRLB). By such results, we mean those that analytically allow the determination, in terms of the CRLB, of the impact of the free model parameters on the estimator performance. For the CRLB, we report analytic expressions on the variance of unbiased parameter estimates of damping factors, frequencies and complex amplitudes of an arbitrary number of damped cisoids embedded in AWGN. In addition to the CRLB, analytic expressions for the determinant and the condition number of the associated Fisher Information Matrix (FIM) are also reported. Further results, in similar order, are reported for two special cases of the damped cisosid model: the Magnetic Resonance Relaxometry model and the amplitude-only model (employed in quantitative NMR - qNMR). Some auxiliary results for the above-mentioned models are also presented, i.e., on the multiplicity of the eigenvalues and the factorisation of the characteristic polynomial associated with their respective FIMs. These results have not been previously reported. The reported theoretical results successfully account for various physical and chemical phenomena observed in experimental NMR data, and quantify their impact on the accuracy of an unbiased estimator as a function of both model and experimental parameters, e.g., influence of prior knowledge, peak multiplicity, multiplet symmetry, solvent peak, carbon satellites, etc. For rapid, high-resolution and apriori-information-free quantitation of NMR signals, a sub-band Steiglitz-McBride algorithm is reported. The developed algorithm directly converts the… Advisors/Committee Members: Teal, Paul, Dmochowski, Pawel.
