Investigation of a hybrid quasi-diffusion/Monte Carlo method for solving multigroup criticality problems in slab geometry

Creator:: Robinson, Bethany R.
Abstract:: A hybrid Quasi-diffusion/Monte Carlo Method for solving multigroup criticality problems in slab geometry was investigated. Analog Monte Carlo was used to calculate functionals (Eddington Factors) that were then used in solution of the quasi-diffusion equations. The hybrid method was shown to accurately and precisely predict the k-eigenvalue and fission source...

The impact of powered mobility use on expressive communication development of young children with disabilities

Creator:: Morrison, Zoe
Abstract:: While the use of powered mobility devices for young children with mobility challenges has taken off in recent years following evidence that the use of powered mobility at a young age augments other traditional mobility skill interventions, the research is still limited and focuses on physical impacts more. Recently, the...

The effects of relaxation techniques on the quality of experience in people with dementia

Creator:: Chamberlin, Bethany
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to test the effects of guided imagery on cognition, depression, anxiety, quality of life, behavior symptoms, and perceptions of self and others in people with dementia. A nonequivalent control group quasi-experimental design was used to compare an attention control group to the intervention group....

Hydrophobicity, Anion Exchange, and Phytoaccumulation of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS): Retention and Remediation

Creator:: Parker, Bethany A.
Abstract:: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of contaminants of great concern due to their toxicity and ubiquity in the environment. Remediation efforts historically have focused on granular activated carbon (GAC) because of its low maintenance and relatively low cost. However, GAC is not PFAS selective and is especially...

Carrying Things Home from School : Can a Child-Based School Intervention Affect Parenting Strategies and Home Climate?

Creator:: Godlewski, Bethany J.
Abstract:: School interventions have typically focused on academic and psychological outcomes for children, but can children carry positive effects home from school to influence their parents and home environments? Developmental research typically focuses on how parents influence development in their children, but this study flips this lens to ask whether children...

The effect of Head Start on mother and father involvement

Creator:: Harmon, Bethany J.
Abstract:: Past research on Head Start has focused on child outcomes, yet Head Start services also target the behaviors of parents. Using data from the Fragile Families and Child Well-being Study (FFCW), the current study examined the effect of Head Start on mother (n = 3,575) and father (n = 1,812)...

Synthesis and Analysis of Heterostructural Semiconductor Alloy Sn1-xCaxCh (Ch=S, Se) and Nitrides Zn1-xWxN and Zn1-x(W1-yMoy)xN

Creator:: Matthews, Bethany E.
Abstract:: This work explores the synthesis and characterization of the metastable alloys Sn1-xCaxCh (Ch= S, Se) and nitride compounds Zn-W-Mo-N, which have recently been predicted by theorists. Single phase thin films of Sn1-xCaxS are prepared by pulsed laser deposition and radio-frequency magnetron sputtering and of Sn1-xCaxSe are prepared by pulsed laser...

Upper-Crustal Magma Evolution at Intermediate Arc Systems : Uranium-Series Zircon Chronochemistry of the Unzen Volcanic Complex, Southwestern Japan

Creator:: Murphy, Bethany S.
Abstract:: Crystal-rich (40-50 vol.%) intermediate lava has been the primary eruptive product of several recent hazardous eruptions: Mt. Pinatubo, Philippines (1991), Soufriere Hills, Montserrat (1995-present), and Unzen, Japan (1990-1995). Despite this association with such devastating eruptions, the formation, timing, and evacuation of such magma is not well understood: do such eruptions...

Building a Basic Computational Model of Surface and Impurity States in a One-dimensional Solid

Creator:: Matthews, Bethany E.
Abstract:: Learning about periodic and oscillatory systems is a huge step in an undergraduate's comprehensive understanding of physics and complex systems such as solids. However, understanding how specific changes to such a system affect aspects of the entire system can be difficult. The goal of this study is to create a...

Influence of silvicultural treatments, overstory, and understory vegetation on quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) regeneration in southeastern Idaho

Creator:: Muñoz, Bethany L.
Abstract:: Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) is known to be a widely distributed, shade-intolerant and short-lived hardwood found in both seral, even-aged and stable, uneven aged stands. There have been reports of extensive aspen mortality, crown thinning, and branch dieback across North America that have been linked to the occurrence of...
