Abstract:
Most research on competitive balance (CB) in North American sport leagues examines regular-season outcomes only, and does not analyze the potential impacts of postseason playoff tournaments. This article finds that playoffs do matter in a CB sense, in that they can substantially reconfigure regular-season outcomes. More importantly, they may reconfigure outcomes in a way that is not neutral with respect to payroll. The article finds, for example, that in the NHL over the 1994-2004 time period, team success in the playoffs was much less dependent on payroll than it was during the regular-season. The article also analyzes the differential impacts of the specific type of playoff tournament employed, and finds that the choice of playoff “pooling” structures directly impacts the probability of “upsets” occurring in the playoffs.

Abstract:
During 2 seasons, defoliated and non-defoliated strawberry plants were evaluated for their fruiting response using the annual hill cultural system in Dover, FL. Partially dormant Canadian grown `Chandler' and non-dormant locally grown FL breeding line 79-1126 were grown the first season. Locally grown `Dover' was added the second season. Total yields of all clones were reduced with foliage removed. Monthly yields were reduced the first season with FL 79-1126 defoliated plants, but only the April yield of defoliated `Chandler' was reduced. December, January, March, and total yields of defoliated plants from all clones were reduced the second season. Average seasonal fruit weight was reduced the second season with locally grown defoliated plants. During the second season the percent marketable fruit of `Chandler' and FL 79-1126 was greater with the defoliated plants.

Abstract:
The paper employed a Cobb-Douglas and translog of stochastic frontier profit function to measure the level of economic efficiency and its determinants. Structured questionnaires were used to collect data from 1,889 of sampling observations (591 for season 1, 678 for season 2, and 620 for season 3) randomly selected from designated locations in the study area. Difference of the study compared to past researches related to tropical fruits analyzed efficiency of three seasons instead of only focusing on efficiency of one season or total a year. The study established a mean economic efficiency of 26.19% in season 1, 27.15% in season 2, and 24.62% in season 3. The paper found out positive determinants of economic efficiency were farming experience, wrapping bag, market access among three seasons; education in season 1 and plant density in season 1 and 2. By contrast, the constraints to profit of mango producers were age, and payment for agro-input wholesale on ending of season in three seasons; credit access and classifying sale in first and second seasons; education in second and third seasons; plant density in season 3. Based on these findings, policy makers should focus on effective inputs models that would boost profit efficiency through conducting regular workshops and orchard demonstrations on using input materials effectively. More so, farmers should design mango gardens with appropriate trees density as well as encourage gardeners to use bags for wrapping mango fruits in farming in order to increase economic efficiency.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this project was to analyze the accuracy of season two, episodes 13-­‐24 of the popular medical drama, House, MD. METHODS: This study was a descriptive retrospective analysis of the second half of season two of House, MD. The accuracy of the presenting signs and symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment in each episode was rated on a scale of one to four. A rating of one described a correct and usual representation. A rating of two described a correct but somewhat unusual representation. A rating of three described a correct but extremely unusual representation. A rating of four described an incorrect representation. Each researcher independently rated the episodes, and then a collaborative rating was agreed upon by all researchers. RESULTS: Results of the ANOVA test demonstrated a statistically significant difference between the three dependent variables (p=0.003). The Tukey post-­‐hoc test confirmed a significant difference between the accuracy of treatment when compared with signs and symptoms (p=0.003), and with diagnosis (p=0.022). The average rating for the treatment variable was 1.50 (±0.707), whereas the average ratings for the signs and symptoms and diagnosis variables were 2.80 (±0.919) and 2.50 (±0.707), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The treatments presented in the last twelve episodes of season two of House, MD were more accurate than both the presenting signs and symptoms and the diagnosis.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this work was to quantify the magnitude of factual inaccuracies in the first twelve episodes of the second season of the medical drama, House, MD. METHODS: This study was a descriptive retrospective evaluation of the first twelve episodes in the second season of the popular television show, House, MD. The degree of accuracy of the signs and symptoms (presentation), diagnosis, and treatment for the one major disease portrayed in each show was rated on a scale of one to four. Each researcher evaluated these ratings independently, and after subsequent collaborative discussion, a combined rating was determined for all the data. RESULTS: Both a three-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis data analyses found significance among the data. The Tukey HSD post hoc test revealed a significant difference between the accuracy of signs and symptoms to treatment variables (p = 0.045). Analysis by the Mann-Whitney U test also determined that a significant difference was evident between the accuracy of signs and symptoms when compared with treatment (p = 0.022). CONCLUSIONS: The treatments presented in the twelve episodes evaluated were determined to be more accurate than the show's description of the patient's presenting signs and symptoms.

Class of 2014 Abstract
Specific Aims: To assess the accuracy of the presentation (signs and symptoms), the diagnostic procedures used to arrive at the final diagnosis, and the ultimate treatment performed in each of the last ten episodes of the first season of the television medical drama, House MD. Methods: A descriptive retrospective analysis of the accuracies and inaccuracies of episodes 13 to 22 in season one of the television series House, MD. The accuracy of each episode in regards to the presenting signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures, and treatment was rated on a scale of one to four: 1) Correct and usual representation; 2) Correct but somewhat unusual representation; 3) Correct but extremely unusual representation; 4) Incorrect representation. Both researchers evaluated each episode on the above criteria independently, and a cooperative and final rating was chosen upon. Main Results: Results of the ANOVA test did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference between the three variables (p=0.581). A Tukey HSD post-hoc test was unable to confirm if there was a significant difference between the the three variables. The average rating for the presenting signs and symptoms was 2.50 (±0.707), and 2.30 (±1.160) and 2.10 (±0.568) for diagnostic procedures and treatment, respectively. Conclusion: There was no difference in accuracies between the presenting signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures, or treatments in the last ten episodes of the first season of House,MD.

Abstract:
Bolls from transgenic cotton, NuCOTN 33 (Delta and Pine Land Co.) containing the Bollgard™ gene (Monsanto Co.) and from the parental cultivar DPL-5415 were examined for mature larvae of the pink bollworm (78,240 total bolls). Bolls from paired fields were collected in the Queen Creek, Buckeye, Maricopa, and Marana, AZ, areas. Equal numbers of bolls were collected from the edges of each field each week July - October except for Marana where a single collection was made 30 October. Bolls were incubated for 2 weeks and/or dissected from 1 September onward. Numbers of pink bollworm larvae were very low in all fields through August and increased to extremely high levels (up to 3.4 larvae/boll at Marana) in some control fields in October. Numbers of pink bollworm found in NuCOTN 33 were extremely low or nonexistent, even in fields immediately adjacent to heavily infested control fields. The overall numbers of larvae found in NuCOTN 33 were comparable to those found in 1995. In 1995, the percent worms of bolls were: NuCOTN 33 = 0.0003 (13 larvae /38320 bolls) compared to 11.80% for DPL -5415 (4711 larvae /39920 bolls). Overall percent worms of bolls for 1996 were: NuCOTN 33 = 0.0004% (14 larvae/33350 bolls) compared to 34.19% (11572 larvae/33850 bolls) in DPL-5415.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the degree of accuracy of the information relevant to signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures used to establish the final diagnosis, and appropriateness of treatment for the last 12 episodes of the 3rd season of the television show, House, MD. METHODS: Twelve episodes were reviewed by three evaluators and the patient’s signs and symptoms, the diagnostic procedures used, and the treatment of the final diagnosis for each episode were recorded and rated based on accuracy. After each evaluator had rated each variable in each episode independently, the ratings were compared and a final rating for each variable was determined. RESULTS: The overall mean rating for signs and symptoms was 2.46. The overall mean rating for diagnostic procedures was 2.38. The overall mean rating for treatment was 1.77. All of these ratings would correlate to a correct, but somewhat unusual presentation. The ANOVA analysis found no statistically significant difference between groups (p=0.078). CONCLUSION: The signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures, and treatments in the episodes of the second half of season three of House, MD were all portrayed in a manner that was accurate, but with a somewhat unusual presentation.

Abstract:
O cultivo do milho safrinha tem se expandido consideravelmente nos ultimos anos. Porem devido as condicoes ambientais contrastantes entre safra e safrinha, deve ocorrer pronunciada interacao genotipos x safras, indicando que os genotipos selecionados para a safra podem nao ser adequados para a safrinha. Assim, os objetivos deste trabalho foram investigar a magnitude e natureza da interacao genotipos x safras e a necessidade de conduzir programas de melhoramento de milho distintos para o cultivo de safra e safrinha. Foram utilizadas 100 progenies S1fs derivadas do cruzamento entre as linhagens endogamicas L08- 05F e L38-05D, as quais foram retrocruzadas com ambas as linhagens genitoras e, posteriormente, estas foram cruzadas com a linhagem endogamica L02-03D para obtencao de 200 testecrosses (100 RC1 TC e 100 RC2 TC ). Os testecrosses obtidos foram avaliados nos ambientes de safra e safrinha em dois anos agricolas no municipio de Piracicaba/SP no delineamento ?¿-latice com duas repeticoes por ambiente por ano. Os caracteres analisados foram producao de graos (PG), prolificidade (PROL), acamamento e quebramento de plantas (ACQ), altura de planta (AP) e de espiga (AE), posicao relativa da espiga (PRE), florescimento masculino (FM) e feminino (FF) e intervalo entre florescimentos (IF). Diferencas entre as medias nas duas safras foram significativas para todos os caracteres, reduzindo significativamente a PG na safrinha devido a menor disponibilidade hidrica. A variancia genetica dos testecrosses para PG na safrinha foi inferior a da safra para os testecrosses RC2 TC , enquanto que para os testecrosses RC1 TC a variancia genetica nao diferiu de zero na safrinha. Consequentemente, o coeficiente de herdabilidade na safrinha para os RC1 TC nao diferiu de zero e os RC2 TC apresentaram coeficientes de herdabilidade de magnitudes similares nas duas safras. Para os demais caracteres as magnitudes das variancias geneticas e coeficientes de herdabilidade diferiram entre as safras e os dois grupos de testecrosses. As magnitudes dos componentes da interacao testecrosses x safras mostraram que o tipo complexa explica a maior parte da interacao, sendo causada pelas baixas magnitudes de correlacoes entre os caracteres nas diferentes safras. As respostas diretas e indiretas a selecao mostraram que a selecao direta foi mais eficiente que a indireta em todas as situacoes, com excecao daquelas em que nao foi detectada variancia genetica na safrinha. As respostas a selecao baseadas nas medias das safras resultaram em progressos na safra e na safrinha proximos aos observados pela selecao direta. Porem, a coincidencia de testecrosses selecionados em ambas as safras foi muito baixa para os dois testecrosses. Assim, os resultados deste estudo sugerem que os programas de melhoramento de milho devem ser distintos para safra e safrinha.
Maize second crop season, known as gsafrinhah, has increased considerably in the last years in Brazil. However, because of the different environmental conditions between the two crop seasons strong genotype by environment interaction is expected to occur, and then maize genotypes selected in the first crop season (known as gsafrah) could not be those ones that would be selected in the safrinha. Thus, objectives of this research were to investigate the magnitude and the nature of the genotype x crop season interaction and whether separate maize breeding programs for each crop season should be conducted. One hundred S1Ls progenies developed from a population produced from the cross of inbred lines L08-05F (P1) and L38-05D (P2), were backcrossed to both parental inbred lines and, subsequently, these backcrosses were crossed to the inbred line L02-03D giving rise to the 200 testcrosses, thereafter named as TBC1 and TBC2 for the backcrosses to P1 and P2, respectively. The testcrosses were evaluated in two crop seasons in two years at the Piracicaba city, Sao Paulo State, in the ?¿-lattice designs with two replications per crop season and year. The traits analyzed were grain yield (GY), prolificacy (PROL), plant lodging (PL), plant (PH) and ear (EH) heights, ear placement (EP), days to anthesis (DA), days to silking (DS), and anthesissilking interval (ASI). Significant differences for the means of all traits in the two crop seasons were detected, and GY reduced significantly in the safrinha because of the moisture stress. The magnitude of the genetic variance for GY in the safrinha was inferior to that in the safra for the TBC2, and for the TBC1 this parameter did not differ from zero in the safrinha. Consequently, the heritability coefficient in the safrinha for the TBC1 did not differ from zero and the TBC2 presented similar magnitudes of the heritability coefficients in both crop seasons. For the other traits, the magnitudes of the genetic variances and of the heritability coefficients were different between the crop seasons and for the two sets of testcrosses. The magnitudes of the components of the interactions testcrosses x crop seasons showed that the complex type i.e., the cross-over interaction type, accounted for the major part of the interactions, which were due to the low magnitudes of the correlations of the traits in the two crop seasons. Estimates of the direct and indirect responses to selection showed that the direct selections were more efficient than the indirect selections, except to that trait in which the genetic variance did not differ from zero in the safrinha. The responses to selection based on the means of the two crop seasons presented similar magnitudes of the direct responses in both crop seasons. However, the coincidence of testcrosses selected in the two crop seasons was very low for both sets of testcrosses. Therefore, the results of this study suggest that separate maize breeding programs should be conducted for each crop season.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter maps the field of international organizations (IOs) in food that has been institutionalized as a global policy field since WWII and has undergone several shifts since then. The chapter traces the emergence of the major IOs of the field, especially the Food and Agriculture Organization, the World Bank, the International Fund for Agricultural Development, the World Food Program, and more recently also the International Labor Organization and the United Nations Children’s Fund. The second half of the twentieth century began with visionary ideas about the global regulation of food production and consumption, moved to a concern with smallholders and food security, and ended with a neoliberal shift away from production toward ensuring consumption through world trade. The new millennium is marked by a rhetorical consensus between the main IOs, new debates about production, hopes in the social protection agenda, as well as increasingly vocal organized critics of the dominant order.

Full text
Abstract:
Large hydrostatic test programs require extensive pre-planning to avoid increased costs and delayed schedules. Recently, Enbridge Pipelines Inc. completed construction and testing of more than 1,200 km of an NPS 36 oil pipeline for the Line 4 Extension Project and the Canadian portion of the Alberta Clipper Expansion Project over three construction seasons. A total of 57 mainline hydrostatic tests were successfully completed and approved by the National Energy Board. Following the first construction and hydrostatic testing season, many lessons were learned that were implemented for hydrostatic testing during the second construction season. The most important aspect of large pipeline hydrostatic test programs is locating and securing water sources. Extensive ground truthing must be preformed to adequately determine locations, volumes and access to water sources. Once potential sources are identified, water quality and environmental issues must be assessed, which leads to applying for and obtaining the necessary permits for water withdrawal and discharge. Leaving an important item such as water sources to be “field-determined” can lead to unanticipated complications, schedule delay and increased construction costs. Water sources are just one of the many important pre-planning activities that must be given adequate attention before the start of pipeline construction to successfully and efficiently manage a large pipeline hydrostatic test program. Many projects only complete high-level desktop-based hydrostatic test planning during the detailed design phase of a project. However, the potential cost and schedule impacts far outweigh the extra costs required to complete proper pre-planning during the detailed engineering phase of a project.

Abstract:
The present paper treats several ecological peculiarities of the hymenopteran complex in a plum orchard. The intense flight activity for Hymenoptera complex was observed in the second half of the vegetation season starting from the first decade of August as a result of stopping phytopharmaceutical treatments. The most number of specimens was registered in four families. Parasitoids ocuppy 89.0% out of all Hymenoptera, being of great importance for plant protection. Hymenoptera form 21.0% out of total plum canopy fauna number in 2017. They occupy the second place in total fauna number. The percentage of Hymenoptera out of total arthropods’ number is 66.0%, the rest beneficial mesofauna has just 34.0% in 2017.

Abstract:
This paper describes the performance and operating experience with two residential sized Combined Heat and Power units which were in operation from 1979 through 1995. The first unit was an automatic coal fired steam electric Combined Heat and Power system, based on the Rankine Steam Cycle. The unit was initially fired in 1979, operating with a steam turbine-generator for two years, and was modified with a reciprocating expander for an additional two years operation. The unit functioned reliably, with only four forced outages during the four years of operation. The second system was diesel engine-generator based, again a Combined Heat and Power System, which was started in 1987 and operated for seven seasons into 1995. The system efficiency averaged 90% during the heating season, and showed remarkably low machinery wear and minimal maintenance during the eight year run. A technical description and performance characteristics are provided for each unit. Relevant design features, design challenges arising during operation, and details of operating experiences are discussed. Photographs, System Diagrams, and Performance Graphs of these early prototype units are included within the paper. Recommended design criteria for optimized small Distributed Generation/Combined Heat and Power units is developed in the paper.

Abstract:
Oil exploration in arctic regions is a very complex activity taking place in a sensitive environment, highlighted by social, wildlife and extreme weather conditions restricting operations to a very limited time window based on the opening of the Tundra season regulations which assesse the quality of the ice and snow coverage over frozen tundra, lakes and seas. Thanks to new technologies, oil exploration in the arctic environment takes a great steps in 3D seismic acquisition methods passing from cable recording equipment and the dependence of sensor connectivity to a recording center and replacing this system with a very versatile system of wireless receivers units equipped with GPS positioning and time stamp recording and storing the seismic data “in situ”. This new technology has allowed a high unit count of light receivers to operate in extreme conditions, which in the past was practically impossible given the limitations of the logistical support to carry out this type of operations in remote and difficult access areas. Definitely this technological development has allowed Repsol to explore a larger surface area in a single winter season acquiring high resolution seismic data that allows obtaining high quality images with better geophysical attributes. Seismic sources have also undergone a notable evolution through the use of high productivity techniques of vibrating trucks moving from a set of multiple vibrators to a single vibrator emission getting up to date simultaneous source acquisitions which allows recording more information without waiting for a second set of vibrators or single vibroseis truck to start shaking to emit energy to the ground. The ability to vibrate at the same time with many sets of single vibrators allows operation on frozen sea either with grounded ice or vibrating on floating ice expanding the exploration boundary to the open sea zones. The new technology has made it possible for Repsol to improve the operational capability of the crew without increasing the number of people or increasing the logistical support required to operate in remote and difficult access areas. This technological advance has allowed the improvement of the quality of oil exploration using 3D seismic techniques reducing the price per recorded trace or per surface source, increasing the possibility to acquire larger surfaces and better seismic data in a single winter season window. More importantly, these technologies have allowed affordable oil exploration with a high respect for the communities, the wildlife and the environment.

Abstract:
Studies on the monitoring of the most damaging defoliant species of oaks (Lymantria dispar and Totrix viridana) through pheromone traps in forest ecosystems are some of the rare achievements in this field, for our country. It has been shown that during the vegetation season there is an alternation of defoliant species, with the presence and development of the II generations, harmful to the foliar limb (the quantity of pests being higher during the first generations and reduced in the second generation). The activity of phytophagus insects was directly influenced by the climatic conditions in the studied areas, the presence of the nutrition source - oaks and the presence of the infestation source. Based on the evidence of males captured in the pheromone traps, digital maps of the spatial distribution of the imago of studied species were developed, which allowed the determination of the position, the direction of spreading and the size of the pests (the necessary studies in sustainable forest management).

Abstract:
Abstract Using solar energy for space cooling is a very interesting concept that relies on several facts. First, both the solar gains and cooling loads or demand coincide with each other. The high insolation levels in summer increase indoor temperatures and accordingly increase the necessity for cooling to fulfill the comfort requirements of occupants. Second, in summer, the electric peak loads occur due to excess usage of electrically-driven air-conditioning systems. Third, there is a surplus of solar gains in solar systems designed for heating applications during the summer season. In this work, the author investigates the usage of the heat produced by a concentrated photovoltaic-thermal (CPVT) system for running an absorption chiller for cooling applications. The CPVT generator is a 22-suns linear Fresnel reflecting system. Water pipes run beneath the PV cells to cool them down, improving their efficiency, and thus simultaneously producing hot water. Different areas of the concentrator and configurations of storage tanks are looked at. TRNSYS simulation platform is used in this study. Results show great potential for a system that produces electricity, hot domestic water, and cooling effect.

Abstract:
In 2012, a giant salvinia (Salvinia molesta Mitchell) biological control project was initiated in Louisiana. Although similar quantities of salvinia weevils (Cyrtobagous salviniae Calder and Sands) were released at all sites, weevil densities were highly variable among sites. Additionally, signs of plant nitrogen depletion (yellowing plants) were observed at some sites. Because it is well known that plant nutrition can affect the success of a biocontrol agent because of slowed development and/or reduced fecundity, the correlation between giant salvinia nitrogen content and Salvinia weevil density was investigated during the growing seasons of the second and fourth years. During 2013, weevils were reintroduced to sites, and the magnitude of adult weevil density increase varied by site. Giant salvinia nitrogen content varied among sites and sampling dates. Upper Big Break plants had greater nitrogen than all other sites during 75% of sampling dates. Additionally, adult and larval densities were significantly correlated to plant nitrogen content. During 2015, trends were less distinct and weevil densities and nitrogen content varied based on the interaction between sampling date and site, but a significant correlation was not detected. Results from 1-yr of a 2-yr study confirmed published reports of the importance of plant nitrogen content to salvinia weevil productivity. Additional studies are warranted to evaluate and understand the role of nitrogen at giant salvinia biocontrol field sites.

Abstract:
Near-to-surface geothermal energy with heat pumps is state of the art and is already widespread in Switzerland. In the future energy system, medium-deep to deep geothermal energy (1 to 6 kilometres) will, in addition, play an important role. To the forefront is the supply of heat for buildings and industrial processes. This form of geothermal energy utilisation requires a highly permeable underground area that allows a fluid – usually water – to absorb the naturally existing rock heat and then transport it to the surface. Sedimentary rocks are usually permeable by nature, whereas for granites and gneisses permeability must be artificially induced by injecting water. The heat gained in this way increases in line with the drilling depth: at a depth of 1 kilometre, the underground temperature is approximately 40°C, while at a depth of 3 kilometres it is around 100°C. To drive a steam turbine for the production of electricity, temperatures of over 100°C are required. As this requires greater depths of 3 to 6 kilometres, the risk of seismicity induced by the drilling also increases. Underground zones are also suitable for storing heat and gases, such as hydrogen or methane, and for the definitive storage of CO2. For this purpose, such zones need to fulfil similar requirements to those applicable to heat generation. In addition, however, a dense top layer is required above the reservoir so that the gas cannot escape. The joint project “Hydropower and geo-energy” of the NRP “Energy” focused on the question of where suitable ground layers can be found in Switzerland that optimally meet the requirements for the various uses. A second research priority concerned measures to reduce seismicity induced by deep drilling and the resulting damage to buildings. Models and simulations were also developed which contribute to a better understanding of the underground processes involved in the development and use of geothermal resources. In summary, the research results show that there are good conditions in Switzerland for the use of medium-deep geothermal energy (1 to 3 kilometres) – both for the building stock and for industrial processes. There are also grounds for optimism concerning the seasonal storage of heat and gases. In contrast, the potential for the definitive storage of CO2 in relevant quantities is rather limited. With respect to electricity production using deep geothermal energy (> 3 kilometres), the extent to which there is potential to exploit the underground economically is still not absolutely certain. In this regard, industrially operated demonstration plants are urgently needed in order to boost acceptance among the population and investors.

Quinn, Meghan. Geotechnical effects on fiber optic distributed acoustic sensing performance. Engineer Research and Development Center (U.S.), July 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.21079/11681/41325.

Full text
Abstract:
Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is a fiber optic sensing system that is used for vibration monitoring. At a minimum, DAS is composed of a fiber optic cable and an optic analyzer called an interrogator. The oil and gas industry has used DAS for over a decade to monitor infrastructure such as pipelines for leaks, and in recent years changes in DAS performance over time have been observed for DAS arrays that are buried in the ground. This dissertation investigates the effect that soil type, soil temperature, soil moisture, time in-situ, and vehicle loading have on DAS performance for fiber optic cables buried in soil. This was accomplished through a field testing program involving two newly installed DAS arrays. For the first installation, a new portion of DAS array was added to an existing DAS array installed a decade prior. The new portion of the DAS array was installed in four different soil types: native fill, sand, gravel, and an excavatable flowable fill. Soil moisture and temperature sensors were buried adjacent to the fiber optic cable to monitor seasonal environmental changes over time. Periodic impact testing was performed at set locations along the DAS array for over one year. A second, temporary DAS array was installed to test the effect of vehicle loading on DAS performance. Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of the DAS response was used for all the tests to evaluate the system performance. The results of the impact testing program indicated that the portions of the array in gravel performed more consistently over time. Changes in soil moisture or soil temperature did not appear to affect DAS performance. The results also indicated that time DAS performance does change somewhat over time. Performance variance increased in new portions of array in all material types through time. The SNR in portions of the DAS array in native silty sand material dropped slightly, while the SNR in portions of the array in sand fill and flowable fill material decreased significantly over time. This significant change in performance occurred while testing halted from March 2020 to August 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. These significant changes in performance were observed in the new portion of test bed, while the performance of the prior installation remained consistent. It may be that, after some time in-situ, SNR in a DAS array will reach a steady state. Though it is unfortunate that testing was on pause while changes in DAS performance developed, the observed changes emphasize the potential of DAS to be used for infrastructure change-detection monitoring. In the temporary test bed, increasing vehicle loads were observed to increase DAS performance, although there was considerable variability in the measured SNR. The significant variation in DAS response is likely due to various industrial activities on-site and some disturbance to the array while on-boarding and off-boarding vehicles. The results of this experiment indicated that the presence of load on less than 10% of an array channel length may improve DAS performance. Overall, this dissertation provides guidance that can help inform the civil engineering community with respect to installation design recommendations related to DAS used for infrastructure monitoring.
