The geochemical partitioning and bioavailability of trace metals in marine sediments

Creator:: Oakley, Stewart M.
Abstract:: Trace metals in the aquatic environment are generally concentrated on the surface of solid geochemical phases which eventually become incorporated into estuarine and marine sediments. The mechanism of trace metal concentration is believed to be adsorption with various geochemical phases such as hydrous metal oxides, clays, and organic matter. Metals...

Responses of males to a pheromone blend of female Oriental fruit moth with and without E8, E10-dodecadien-1-ol, a pheromone component of codling moth (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Creator:: Allred, Darin B.
Abstract:: E8,E10-dodecadien-1-ol, the primary component of the female sex pheromone of codling moth, Cydia pomonella L., has no attraction to male Oriental fruit moth (OFM), C. molesta (Busck). However, this compound when added to the OFM pheromone blend of Z8-dodecenyl acetate (85.5%), E8-dodecenyl acetate (5.5%), and Z8- dodecen -1 -ol (9.0%),...

Problems of Shape and Information in Multiscale Modeling of Transport Phenomena

Creator:: Ostvar, Sassan
Abstract:: This work is a compilation of problems that deal with multiscale analysis of transport phenomena in environmental systems. A common feature among the problems studied here is the presence of non-negligible microscale structure in various forms. Each problem is approached from the perspective that a macroscopic observable encodes aspects of...

The Modeling of Core-Wide Behavior of Pebble Bed Reactors Using Static and Dynamic Graphite Pebble Properties to Predict Core Performance and Safety Behaviors

Creator:: Cox, Jordan T.
Abstract:: The United States Department of Energy has identified the pebble-bed reactor as a high priority for US research with the end goal of licensing a pebble-bed reactor (PBR) for operation in the United States. Before this can be accomplished significant research must be done regarding the safety of the pebble-bed...

Sources of flow maldistribution in microreactor-assisted synthesis of ceria nanoparticles

Creator:: Tseng, Chih-Heng
Abstract:: Recent efforts show that microchannel technologies have much to offer the field of nanomanufacturing: the structuring of matter on the order of one billionth of a meter. During the synthesis of nanomaterials, microchannel reactors take advantage of large surface-to-volume ratios to accelerate heat and mass transport. This accelerated transport allows...

Predicting mechanical instability of a cylindrical plate under axial flow conditions

Creator:: Marcum, Wade R.
Abstract:: Five U.S. high performance research reactors (HPRRs) are currently part of an international nonproliferation program with the objective of ultimately converting their highly enriched uranium (HEU) fuel to a new high density, low enriched uranium (LEU) fuel while still maintaining their reactor kinetic and thermal hydraulic performance. A uranium-molybdenum (U-Mo)...

Micromixer assisted continuous flow synthesis of nanoparticles of binary compounds and their application

Creator:: Palanisamy, Barath
Abstract:: In this work, continuous synthesis routes for binary nanoparticles using advantages of microchannel mixing (low diffusion distances and higher mass transfer) and fast heating rates provided by ultrasound induced heating are investigated. In addition, the application of silica nanoparticles in anti-reflective coatings on glass and understanding the structure property-performance correlation...

Fluidic and thermal modeling for the high production rate synthesis of high quality nanoparticles

Creator:: Peterson, Daniel Alan
Abstract:: Advances of colloidal nanomaterials for societal benefit have been hampered by the high cost and low quality of nanoparticles (NPs). The production of high quality nanoparticles within colloidal suspension has two related concerns; (1) current high production rates methods of synthesizing nanoparticles result in a larger range of particle size,...

Modification of Lower Plenum Structure for Mixing Promotion during Normal Operation of the High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor

Creator:: Gradecka, Malwina
Abstract:: Since High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactors are being considered as most promising design of upcoming IV Gen reactors, thus key research areas were identified to address safety aspects of this design. Number of simulations and experiments need to be conducted in this field. In this study thermal-hydraulics aspects of coolant flow...

Culture and Contexts of Intimate Partner Violence in Nigeria : The Role of Child Marriage, and Implications for Public Health and Population Growth

Creator:: Nwegbu, Somawina Chiazo
Abstract:: Intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) and early marriage of female children are significant public health challenges in Nigeria. Previous research has shown a strong association between the two. Furthermore, both issues have severe implications for socioeconomic progress and present barriers to the realization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)....
