Creator:: Chang, Alvin
Abstract:: Our society today is heavily dependent on fossil fuels such as coal and oil. However, growing environmental concerns and future fossil fuel supplies have led to interests in alternative fuels. Dimethyl Ether (DME) is an inexpensive, clean-burning, non-toxic, and potentially renewable fuel, making it a suitable choice as an alternative...

Creator:: Rebarchik, Michael A.
Abstract:: Increased dependence on fossil fuels and concerns of anthropogenic climate change have led to increased interest in alternative energy sources. Liquid fuels derived from renewable raw materials have gained attention in recent years due to their similarity to petroleum-based fuels. Biofuels derived through hydrodeoxygenation have been found to be one...

Creator:: Schneider-Coppolino, Merissa
Abstract:: As conventional energy sources begin to deplete, the need for alternative, renewable energy becomes more necessary. Dimethyl ether (DME) fuel cells are a promising energy source that could fulfill these demands. Compared to well-known fuel cell fuels, such as methanol, DME has a low toxicity and high energy density. Experimental...

Creator:: Jones, Alexander R.
Abstract:: Cancer is currently the second leading cause of death in the United States and the sixth leading cause of death worldwide. Due to cancer’s variability in type, location, growth rates, and patient physiology, treatment models are based off of previous experimental and clinical work. This variability, however, can lead to...

Creator:: Silva, Nicholas A.
Abstract:: Polystyrene thin film surfaces are commonly used to study the interactions of macromolecules, such as proteins, with surfaces. Polystyrene films oxidized in UV light become more hydrophilic, however these surfaces have a limited shelf life because they are reduced over time. Experiments were performed to determine the effect of radiation...
