Electronic assemblies operating in harsh environments are frequently subjected to thermal cycling and mechanical stresses that can degrade solder interconnections and compromise system reliability. The transition from ...

This dissertation develops novel solutions for Finite-Control-Set Model Predictive Control (FCS-MPC) applied to DC-DC power electronic converters. While MPC has shown promise in diverse power electronics applications, its ...

Smart clothing is an emerging innovation that combines textile materials with health monitoring technology. Although these garments are often made from synthetic fibers because of their technical advantages, there is growing ...

This dissertation has two focuses, both concerning Hamiltonicity conditions in tough graphs. First, for any integer $t \ge 4$, we present a $t$-closure lemma that generalizes a closure lemma of Bondy and Chv\'atal from ...

Spiral generators are a device capable of pulse compression and Radio Frequency signal generation in a single solid state device. It shows great promise for integration into High Power Microwave systems at a large scale, ...

Forest ecosystems’ ability to efficiently sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) has created economic opportunities for landowners in both compliance (regulated) and voluntary carbon markets. While many studies have investigated ...

This dissertation presents two research contributions at the frontier of AI-driven healthcare documentation. The first contribution is an end-to-end AI system for health- care contact center operations that integrates ...

This work establishes a statistically reliable framework for reverse engineering drug formulations from a target dissolution profile, formulated as an inverse functional problem. Dissolution profiles describe the rate at ...

The use of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) for applying dry solid products, especially cover crop seed, has increased rapidly in the United States in recent years. Limited information currently exists on the application ...

This dissertation consists of three papers spanning two areas of mathematics and statistics: combinatorial commutative algebra and functional data analysis. The first paper examines the weak Lefschetz property (WLP) for ...
