M.S. in Mining Engineering candidate Poorva Kadrolli will present their master's defense at 8:30 a.m. Friday (Dec. 2) in Dow 633. Virtual attendance is also invited via Zoom. 

All are welcome to attend. 

Kadrolli's defense is titled "Injury Severity Modeling in the Mining Industry Using Workers' Compensation Data and Data Analytics."

Kadrolli is advised by Snehamoy Chatterjee.

From the abstract:
... The type of risk associated with an injury in the mining industry can be identified by analyzing workers’ compensation (WC) data. ... The relationship between the risk factors and claim type from the WC data was evaluated through Chi-squared and post-hoc tests. ... Results from the statistical analysis show that age group, injury cause, nature of the injury, and part of body injured are statistically significant risk factors, whereas gender and mine type aren’t significant with injury severity. Once the statistically significant risk factors and impact measures were analyzed, the machine learning (ML) models were applied. The categorical variables were treated using one-hot encoding before applying ML models. The data was divided into the training and testing set. Class balancing and data augmentation techniques like the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) and adaptive synthetic sampling (ADASYN) were used to deal with the class imbalance problems. Tree-based algorithms like decision tree, random forest, and gradient boosting with a few other algorithms like logistic regression and support vector machine were tested to understand the ML performance. The gradient boosting algorithm with ADASYN (data augmentation technique) proved to be the best machine learning model to predict injury severity. The results of statistical analysis and machine learning algorithms can help the mine personnel comprehend risk factors by taking preventative actions at the mine site.

Val Schmidt, principal research project manager with the Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping Joint Hydrographic Center at the University of New Hampshire, will give a talk Monday (Dec. 5) at 4 p.m. in GLRC 202.

Schmidt's presentation will highlight lessons learned from seven years of balancing autonomy and supervision of marine robotic vehicle operations.

From the abstract:
Since 2015, the Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping at the University of New Hampshire has routinely operated autonomous (robotic) surface vehicles (ASVs) for marine science and hydrographic survey. Initial operations have been from smaller, two-person portable, battery-operated systems in inland areas or in distant locations not easily accessible or unsafe to crewed vessels. More recently, operations have involved diesel-powered, sea-going vessels, including the C-Worker 4 (ASV Global) and DriX (iXblue/exail) vehicles, capable of sustained operations for several full work days. The Center has deployed these larger systems from NOAA Ship Fairweather (2018), Exploration Vessel Nautilus (2017, 2018, 2021, 2022 x3), NOAA R/V Shearwater (2017), and NOAA Ship Thomas Jefferson (2019 and 2022). The Center has also deployed ASVs from shore in NOAA’s Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary (2019 and 2021), and countless other day deployments from our own vessel and from shore off the New Hampshire coast. This talk will sprinkle sea-stories with a compendium of our lessons learned as we develop new technologies and operational modes to make the use of marine robotics for production science operations practical for NOAA and other operators.

Michigan Tech men's basketball tallied three losses on the road over the long weekend.

Turnovers and a lack of offensive punch contributed to Tech's 75-57 loss to No. 24 Missouri St. Louis on Wednesday (Nov. 23) inside the Mark Twain Building. The Huskies couldn't keep up with the Tritons, who balanced their scoring and put up 40 points in the paint to pull away in the second half.

Tyler Robarge scored 12 points, going 6-of-7 for shooting with four rebounds in defeat for Tech. 

"We came out and played really well in the first 19 minutes," said head coach Josh Buettner. "Mental mistakes at the end of the half set us back. Then they really sped us up in the second. We need to continue to grow and trust our offense to get results."

Saturday (Nov. 26), the Huskies lost to No. 14 Minnesota Duluth, falling 99-65 at Romano Gymnasium in nonconference play. The Huskies fell to 2-4 in the midst of seven straight games away from the Keweenaw. 

"Duluth is a really good basketball team and they kicked our tails in every phase of the game today," said Buettner. "I need to raise the accountability level in practice on the defensive side of the ball. We'll continue to work hard every day to get better."

On Sunday (Nov. 27), Marcus Tomashek came alive from the 3-point line in the second half, but Michigan Tech still fell short at St. Cloud State 74-56 at Hallenbeck Hall.

The Huskies trailed by as many as 22 points in the game. Tomashek helped cut the margin back to 10 with 20 points on 7-for-15 shooting, including 6-for-10 from beyond the arc, but it was not enough.

"We got out-toughed by St. Cloud State today," said Buettner. "It starts with me in practice demanding guys get a stop. We have a good group of guys. I know we are going to get where we need to be."

Michigan Tech women's basketball sailed through the weekend, collecting two wins at home.

The Huskies used a massive first half to soar past St. Cloud State 82-49 on Friday (Nov. 25) at SDC Gymnasium in nonconference play. Tech shot 50% from beyond the arc (12-for-24) and 57% overall (24-for-46), and had five players in double figures.

Soraya Timms and Isabella Lenz paced the offense with 13 points apiece, while Alex Rondorf narrowly missed a double-double after compiling 12 points, nine rebounds. Ellie Mackay and Sloane Zenner added 10 points apiece for the home Huskies.

Shutdown defense and 17 points by Mackay made the difference for MTU on Saturday (Nov. 26) as they collected their sixth win of the season over Minnesota Duluth, 61-46 at SDC Gymnasium.

Tech limited UMD to 33% shooting and the Bulldogs' top scorer to four points. MTU also grabbed eight steals and 33 rebounds in the nonconference matchup.

"I was proud of the way we stuck to the game plan and executed one play at a time on both ends of the floor," said head coach Sam Clayton. "I was really proud of our effort, all five on the floor as we tried to limit a great player like Brooke (Olson), which is not easy to do. It was a great team effort, communicating and being sharp out there."

No. 20 Michigan Tech hockey battled No. 10 Minnesota State over the weekend, coming away from the CCHA series with a win and a tie.

The Huskies dominated the first two periods and held on for a 3-2 win over the Mavericks on Friday (Nov. 25) at the MacInnes Student Ice Arena. Logan Ganie, Kyle Kukkonen, and Kash Rasmussen scored for MTU.

"Great win against a top 10 team," Tech coach Joe Shawhan said. "We had a great goaltending performance in the third and got some big minutes out of our top guys. It was a big night for us."

On Saturday (Nov. 26), the teams skated to a 2-2 tie. The Mavericks earned the extra CCHA point in the fourth round of the shootout after overtime.

"It's a hard pill to swallow with the way it ended, but if you would've told me that we would get a point tonight with the number of defensemen out, I would've been happy," Shawhan said. "It'll be a learning experience, especially with a number of guys playing out of position."

MS Defense: Azade Tahmasebi, ChE

M.S. in Chemical Engineering candidate Azade Tahmasebi will present their master's thesis at 1 p.m. today (Nov. 29). This will be a virtual presentation only. Attendance is invited via Zoom.

Tahmasebi's thesis is titled "Exploring PH Gradient Phenomena in Non-Linear Electrokinetic Microfluidic Devices."

From the abstract:
Electrokinetic microfluidics is a versatile technology utilized within lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices for diagnostic and analytical applications; advantages include reduced resource demands, flexibility, and simplicity of use. Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a precision nonlinear electrokinetic tool utilized within microfluidic microdevices to induce polarization and control bioparticle motions for applications that range from hemoglobin separations to cancer cell isolation and detection. Despite promising results, undesired side phenomena can occur in electrokinetic systems which impede reproducibility and accuracy in some diagnostic applications. These unfavorable phenomena have not been comprehensively explored in the literature. The fundamental phenomena originate from microelectrodes utilized in the electrokinetic systems whose surface reactions drive ion byproducts into the adjacent medium; these medium variations can affect the cell’s viability as well as bioparticle structure and function. This research focuses on characterizing pH gradients in an aqueous solution under nonlinear electric fields generated via non-uniform electrode geometries to more fully characterize microdevice-imposed artifacts on cells in clinical diagnostic devices. In addition to exploring frequency dependence, this work also explores the use of a hafnium dioxide (HfO 2) dielectric coating over the electrodes as a strategy to eliminate the undesired reactions.
