Mass transfer of urea, creatinine and vitamin B-12 in a microchannel based membrane separation unit

Creator:: Warner-Tuhy, Alana
Abstract:: Micro energy and chemical systems (MECS) are microfluidic systems where energy and chemical processes can be intensified by decreasing the characteristic length. This project focused on bulk fluid processing using MECS technology to intensify the mass transport of a dialyzer. The objective of this project was to design a model...

Investigation of the effects of cryopreservation on cellular viability and mechanical integrity of the intervertebral disc

Creator:: Forcier, Ryan J.
Abstract:: Degeneration of the intervertebral disc (IVD) is a phenomenon that has yet to be adequately addressed. Treatment options remain limited and incomplete. The ability to effectively cryopreserve IVDs would allow for better allograft transplantations and storage of samples for research purposes. This study aimed to assess how cryopreservation with different...

Fused Filament Fabrication of Filled Polymers for Metal Additive Manufacturing

Creator:: Barmore, Brenton
Abstract:: Additive manufacturing (AM) is a relatively new manufacturing technique that can create high complexity parts out of many materials in low volume. The fused filament fabrication (FFF) is the lowest cost AM process and is capable of producing only thermoplastic components. Powder injection molding (PIM) is a high volume low...

Engineering an Ex-Vivo System to Study Transport Phenomena in the Human Intervertebral Disc

Creator:: Shalash, Ward
Abstract:: Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, entailing a significant socioeconomic impact. A primary source of back pain can be attributed to intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration allowing nerve ingrowth, facet joint arthritis, disc bulging, and osteophyte formations that press on nearby nerve roots or the spinal cord. While...

Spherical Au Nanoparticle Interaction with Lipid Monolayers Probed with Sum Frequency Generation Spectroscopy

Creator:: Faase, Ryan A.
Abstract:: Nanoparticles have become more prevalent from their use in sunscreen to antimicrobial agents in socks. In light of these applications, gaining a fundamental understanding of how NPs interact with humans is crucial for their future. Specifically, how cells interact with NPs and what factors drive the modes of cellular uptake....

Development of bi-based lead-free piezoelectric materials : thin film piezoelectric materials via PVD and CSD routes

Creator:: Jeon, Yu Hong
Abstract:: Piezoelectric materials have been widely used in electromechanical actuators, sensors, and ultrasonic transducers. Among these materials, lead zirconate titanate Pb(Zr[subscript 1‐x]Ti[subscript x])O₃ (PZT) has been primarily investigated due to its excellent piezoelectric properties. However, environmental concerns due to the toxicity of PbO have led to investigations into alternative materials systems....

Predicting Treatment Options for the Intervertebral Disc: Patient-Specific Finite Element Models

Creator:: Ahrens, Sonia R.
Abstract:: This work describes a method for incorporating patient data into a nutrient transport model of the intervertebral disc.This data was collected using MRI diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), and was converted into an apparent diffusion coefficient map (ADC map). This map was used to define the diffusion behavior of water within...
