Sea Spray-Mediated Fluxes at Extreme Wind Speeds
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-09)Tropical cyclones are complex systems that are challenging to forecast and model. Since tropical cyclones are powered by the warm ocean surface, the accuracy of intensity forecasts depends heavily on the air-sea interaction ... -
From Spheres to Sheets: Colloidal Hydrodynamics, Thermodynamics, and Statistical Inference
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-09)This thesis involves the development of Bayesian methods for statistical inference of distributions, the construction of optimization and thermodynamic sampling algorithms, and the use of hydrodynamical simulations to ... -
Nuclear Computations under Uncertainty New methods to infer and propagate nuclear data uncertainty across Monte Carlo simulations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-06)This thesis introduces new methods to efficiently infer and propagate nuclear data uncertainty across Monte Carlo simulations of nuclear technologies. The main contributions come in two areas: 1. novel statistical methods ...
