Advection-diffusion in inertial flow through periodically converging-diverging tubes

Lambert, Adam (Adam L.) (2010-11-11)

A direct numerical simulation of advection-diffusion in a sinusoidal tube was carried out using the commercial ﬁnite-volume code STAR-CD. The Reynolds numbers varied from Re = 0.1 to Re = 14.5. At the larger Reynolds n ...
Inhibition, gene expression and modeling of ammonia oxidation in biofilms of Nitrosomonas europaea

Lauchnor, Ellen Grace (2011-04-01)

This dissertation explores the physiology and gene expression of the ammonia-oxidizing bacterium Nitrosomonas europaea in surface-associated bacterial communities, or biofilms. Biofilms of N. europaea were cultivated in ...
Roles of gas and solid components in the direct nitridation of silicon

Pavarajarn, Varong (2002-06-12)

The factors influencing the direct nitridation of silicon, including the effects of the native oxide layer covering the surface of silicon, the effects of hydrogen contained in the nitridation gas and the catalytic eff ...
The testing and repair of polyethylene natural gas distribution pipe

Hunt, John (2004-09-21)

With the dominance of polyethylene as the building material for America's natural gas distribution system and a growing demand for natural gas, there exists and ever increasing need for improved methods of repairing dama ...
Transcriptional and physiological response of Nitrosomonas europaea to inhibition by chlorinated aromatics and heavy metals

Sandborgh, Sean C. (2011-03-31)

This research investigates the physiological and transcriptional responses of Nitrosomonas europaea when exposed to chlorinated aromatic compounds and heavy metals under varying environmental conditions. It was found tha ...
