Creator:: Cross, Matthew J.
Abstract:: Background: Studies indicate that problems utilized in traditional undergraduate engineering education do not adequately prepare students for the workforce. Calls to implement authentic, ill-structured problems into upper level engineering experiences may address this issue but adopting authentic engineering problems without considering barriers to adoption of faculty has not been fully...

Creator:: Reynolds, Aaron J.
Abstract:: Circulating fuel reactor (CFR) kinetics are characterized by delayed neutron precursor (DNP) drift in addition to the neutronic and thermal hydraulic phenomena typical of other reactor types. This environment can be computationally challenging to model, given that the multiphysics phenomena generally have non-linear interdependencies requiring the use of iterative solution...

Creator:: Baas, Esther J.
Abstract:: As mass-timber building construction rises around the globe, there exists the need to verify the long-term, in-situ behavior and performance of these structural systems. Structural health monitoring (SHM), generally defined as a damage detection strategy consisting of a network of sensors, a data acquisition system, and algorithms for data analysis,...

Creator:: Chace, Peter J.
Abstract:: Rotating disc electrodes (RDEs) exploit the induced flushing of a radially spun electrode to increase the overall rate of analyte flux to an electrode sensing surface and its resulting signal current (i). Here initial efforts to evaluate a rotating platinum (Pt) microelectrode for efficacy as a rapid in situ dissolved...

Creator:: Aerne, Nicholas, S. J.
Abstract:: Adhesive use is becoming increasingly common in manufacturing processes. The advantage of adhesives are light weight components, non-destructive fastening techniques and distribution of loads over the applied bond region. Modeling the behavior of adhesive bond lines in fastening joints can help in the design process to make an optimized joint,...

Creator:: Pike, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Nanoparticles are becoming increasingly important in numerous technological fields but evidence shows that they can be toxic to many organisms. To predict their fate and transport in the environment, nanoparticle attachment to naturally occurring colloids must be examined. This study investigated citrate-capped gold nanoparticle (Cit-AuNP) heteroaggregation with two model colloids...
