PhD Theses

Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (b-TBI) is regarded as the ‘signature injury’ of modern violent conflict. It has been repeatedly linked to numerous neuropathologies, which are common among military personnel and Veterans. 

Data visualization provides a human-digestible interface to digital data. With increasing data volumes and increased complexity and interrelationships, so have the demands on supporting effective visualization to support this interface. With complex data at scale, it becomes necessary to summarize the data in some manner to communicate high-level information of a dataset, such as distributions, trends, or anomalies. 

River bridge scour is an erosion process in which flowing water removes sediment materials (such as sand, rocks) from a bridge foundation, river beds and banks. As a result, the level of the river bed near a bridge pier is lowering such that the bridge foundation stability can be compromised, and the bridge can collapse.

Much attention has been directed towards synchronous Brain Computer Interfaces (BCIs). For these BCIs, the user can only operate the system during specific system-defined periods. Self-paced BCIs, however, allow users to operate the system at any time he/she wishes. The classification of Electroencephalography (EEG) signals in self-paced BCIs is extremely challenging.
