Evaluating the use of particle-spring systems in the conceptual design of grid shell structures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)This thesis evaluates particle-spring systems as conceptual design tools in an effort to create efficient grid shell structures. Currently many simulation tools are available to create representations of intricate geometries ... -
Evaluating the use of Sr, Pb, and U isotopes for fingerprinting surface and groundwaters in southern New Hampshire
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Increased pressure on fresh water reserves in southern New Hampshire requires new methods for monitoring exploitation. In a pilot study, surface water and groundwater samples from southern New Hampshire were analyzed for ... -
Evaluating the Use of TROPICS Pathfinder Observations for Lunar Calibration
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)Traditional two-point in-situ calibration systems for microwave radiometers use large, on-board hot targets [12]. Small satellites such as CubeSats, however, are unable to house these hot targets due to SWaP constraints. ... -
Evaluating Trends in Light-Duty Vehicle Technologies to Project Fuel Economy
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Predicting the fuel economy of future light-duty vehicles provides insight into the expected greenhouse gas emissions, oil consumption, and operating costs in the transportation sector. Fuel economy is difficult to directly ... -
Evaluating upstream supply chain disruptions with partial availability
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Globalization, outsourcing, and the emphasis on lean supply chains continue to shape the supply chain industry. These trends have increased the prevalence and severity of disruptions to upstream supply. Disruptions to ... -
Evaluating Urban Residence Options to Meet Zero Energy Requirements: Simulation-Based Tradespace Exploration of Yokohama Considering Energy Production, Consumption, and Life-Cycle Cost
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-06)Most countries have announced ambitious decarbonization goals towards 2050. The Japanese government has declared a target to reduce CO2 emission by 46% from 2013 and taken on the challenge of reaching a height of 50%. ... -
