A Narrative-Restorative Framework For Addressing School Bullying, Tristan Patel, Michelle Myers, Daniel Stewart
A Narrative-Restorative Framework For Addressing School Bullying, Tristan Patel, Michelle Myers, Daniel Stewart
Journal of Educational Research and Practice
Bullying in schools is often addressed through punitive deterrence practices, solution-focused counseling, or restorative conferencing. These approaches often fail to recognize or account for the power imbalance that ultimately sustains bullying. This article discusses a narrative-restorative intervention to address bullying as a relational and communal issue, rather than relying on isolation or deterrence practices. The limitations of the dominant models discussed highlight the role of power in shaping bullying dynamics and connect legal and ethical responsibilities of narrative-restorative practices. Situated within the framework of California education law and professional ethical standards, at its core, undercover anti-bullying teams aim to redistribute …
Human-Centered Modeling Of Traffic As A Complex System, Poorendra P. Ramlall
Human-Centered Modeling Of Traffic As A Complex System, Poorendra P. Ramlall
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
Traffic systems are driven not only by motion, but by interaction: vehicles influence one another, drivers continuously adapt to surrounding behaviour, and cognitive processes shape decisions that can propagate through the flow of traffic. Understanding these layered interactions is essential for improving traffic safety and for designing the next generation of intelligent, connected, and automated transportation systems. This PhD research develops a multiscale, data-driven framework for identifying, modelling, and ultimately interpreting interaction structure in traffic systems. The work first established an information-theoretic basis for this problem, demonstrating how information flow can uncover directional relationships in traffic dynamics and help infer …

Using Sysml Models To Verify System Design And Identify Discrepancies In A Satellite System, Noah Fulton
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
This study investigates the use of Systems Modeling Language (SysML) to verify subsystem design consistency and identify integration discrepancies in a multidisciplinary satellite program. Project COMET, an Embry-Riddle effort under the University Nanosatellite Program (UNP), consists of six subsystems but lacks a centralized system model. This leads to inconsistencies between subsystem inputs, outputs, and interface definitions. Typically, SysML models are created early in the system design cycle; However, this study will evaluate how creating system models post preliminary design review (PDR) can assist a project by verifying subsystem integration or by identifying discrepancies between independently developed subsystems. This study will …

Learning Casual Structures From Aviation Accident Narratives Using Natural Language Processing And Graph-Based Knowledge Representation, Stephanie Ramsey, Katherine Hoffsetz, Madeline Gorman, Logan Lambeth
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
Understanding the complex causal relationships underlying aviation accidents is critical for improving safety and preventing future incidents. However, much of this information exists in unstructured narrative reports, making large-scale analysis difficult. This project aims to automatically extract and model causal chains from National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) accident narratives using a combination of traditional natural language processing (NLP) techniques, transformer-based architectures, and graph-based knowledge representation. Traditional NLP methods, including named entity recognition, dependency parsing, and rule-based pattern matching, will be used to identify structured cause–effect relationships. These approaches will be compared with transformer-based models, including a lightweight encoder for classification …
Numerical Modeling Of A Secondary Breakup In The Veritas Asteroid Family, Jarrett Dieterle
Numerical Modeling Of A Secondary Breakup In The Veritas Asteroid Family, Jarrett Dieterle
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
The Veritas asteroid family, located in the outer main belt, is believed to have formed from the catastrophic breakup of a parent body approximately 8.3 million years ago (e.g., Nesvorný et al., 2003). Larger fragments remained in the main belt, while smaller particles evolved inward under radiation forces, forming a toroidal dust structure observable in infrared data as paired bands. Previous studies (e.g., Dermott et al., 2001) have shown that these bands can be linked to their parent families and modeled from their initial disruptions. We propose that the 10° dust bands associated with Veritas may record evidence of a …
High-Level Trajectory Learning For Non-Prehensile Object Manipulation With Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning, Gulsum Tuba Cibuk Girgin
High-Level Trajectory Learning For Non-Prehensile Object Manipulation With Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning, Gulsum Tuba Cibuk Girgin
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
Site exploration requires in-situ resource utilization when the physical properties of resources are unknown. Therefore, a generalizable object manipulation method is crucial for extraterrestrial environments. Existing studies develop reinforcement learning policies that enable interaction with objects, in which quadruped robots learn to reach commanded goals with one foot while balancing with the remaining legs. However, in these studies, goal-oriented task execution relies on high-level trajectories provided by human experts, which limits autonomous robotic operations. In this study, we propose a hierarchical DRL in which a high-level pedipulation policy outputs commands for a low-level reach policy, enabling autonomous, smooth and affordable …

Sequential Causal Architecture For Multimodal Aviation Accident Prediction, Kaitlyn Cavanaugh, Isaac Morrison
Sequential Causal Architecture For Multimodal Aviation Accident Prediction, Kaitlyn Cavanaugh, Isaac Morrison
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
Aviation accidents are rarely the result of a single failure but rather from a complex causal chain of latent failures. While traditional data mining models often predict incident occurrence, they frequently overlook the sequential mechanics defined by known accident causation theoretical frameworks like the Swiss Cheese Model and the FAA's HFACS. This project addresses the need for interpretable, reliable, multi-stage forecasting by proposing a Sequential Causal Architecture that transforms theoretical causation models into a structured Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) for multimodal accident causation chain prediction. Data from the NTSB and DOT is used and connected together in a meaningful way …
Energy-Aware Bimodal Contact Detection For Leg Odometry, Emre Girgin
Energy-Aware Bimodal Contact Detection For Leg Odometry, Emre Girgin
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
Autonomous exploration of extraterrestrial environments using legged robots requires robust GNSS-free 3D state estimation. Standard leg odometry relies on Zero-Velocity Updates (ZUPT), which assume a grounded foot remains completely stationary. This assumption consistently fails on deformable granular terrain due to unobservable slippage, rapidly degrading state estimation. To mitigate this critical failure mode, we propose a dual contact-detection framework designed to robustly gate an Error-State Extended Kalman Filter (ESEKF) tracking pose, velocity, and IMU biases. The architecture isolates physical load and kinematics by modeling contact detection as two independent parallel Hidden Markov Models (HMMs). The Load HMM processes Ground Reaction Forces, …

Air traffic congestion is an increasingly important factor in aviation safety as global flight activity continues to grow. This project investigates whether higher traffic density is associated with an increased risk of aviation incidents and identifies key contributing factors. Using publicly available flight (ADS-B) and incident (NTSB) data, we apply several machine learning models to analyze traffic patterns and predict risk. We begin with logistic regression to evaluate the relationship between density and incident probability, followed by decision trees to extract interpretable rules describing high-risk conditions. K-nearest neighbors (KNN) is used to examine similarity in traffic patterns among incident flights, …

Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
The Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem (CR3BP) is renowned for its intricate and chaotic dynamics, leaving it without a closed-form solution. In this poster, we introduce an innovative approach to determine spacecraft trajectories within the CR3BP framework using matrix factorization techniques. We formulate a matrix equation where the right-hand side vector is constructed from the spacecraft's position and velocity data, while the coefficient matrix is derived from the spacecraft's temporal data. Subsequently, we apply several matrix decomposition techniques, including modified Gram-Schmidt, the Householder technique, and Givens Rotation, to analyze the coefficient matrix and derive the spacecraft trajectories. Finally, we evaluate the …

A Myoelectric Prosthesis Utilizing A Convolutional Neural Network And Signal Processing, Hope Lea, Katherine Clark, Francis Genco, Carolyn Ascha Richardson, Tobiah Rosser
Discovery Day - Daytona Beach
A Myoelectric Prosthesis Utilizing A Convolutional Neural Network and Signal Processing Commercially available myoelectric prostheses for transradial amputees utilize electromyography (EMG) sensors to observe electrical signals from superficial muscle contractions and control robotic fingers, yet often have flaws regarding adaptability and dexterity. These devices require users to learn awkward muscle patterns, as the EMG placement and gesture recognition does not consider how humans would normally think about moving their hand. Additionally, the number of available gestures is more limited, as the devices are threshold-based and do not sample enough muscles. This work seeks to address these issues by creating a …
