Molecular Dynamics on REX-GECO1 Reveal Structural Features Governing Fluorescence

Creator:: Rozanov, Nikita
Abstract:: Fluorescent proteins have emerged as an essential toolset for bioimaging, creating a demand for engineering proteins with new and improved fluorescent properties. In this thesis, I explore the atomistic structure of REX-GECO1, a newly engineered protein biosensor that has unique optical properties. Since this protein has no available crystal structure,...

On Primary Vortex Shedding Regimes between Long Tandem Plates

Creator:: Howard, Trevor Kent
Abstract:: Vortex shedding is a phenomenon relevant to any industry dealing with fluid flow. The shed vortices often produce oscillatory forces, which have been suspect in the catastrophic failure of airplanes and bridges alike. To prevent further engineering failures a better understanding of the underlying physics is needed. It has been...

Determining the Influence of Nutrition and Temperature on the Growth and Development of Camassia spp.

Creator:: Davis, Matthew C.
Abstract:: As a key historic component of prairies in the Pacific Northwest, Camassia spp. should play a role in the restoration of these ecosystems. To do so effectively, further study of Camassia spp. propagation is warranted. Thus, the growth, N uptake and allocation, and seasonal thermoperiodicity of Camassia spp. was examined....

Characterization of Membrane Vesicles Released by the Opportunistic Human Pathogen Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) in Response to an in vitro System Mimicking the Phagosomal Environment

Creator:: Chiplunkar, Sanket S.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) belongs to the most-clinically significant non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) pathogens with constant increase in disease prevalence, mainly in several industrialized western countries where tuberculosis is less prevalent. Upon entry into the alveolar space, MAH is engulfed by resident-macrophages, where the pathogen adapts to the hostile phagosomal...

Design and Implementation of a Wearable Walking Navigation Assistance System for the Vision Impaired

Creator:: Sylwester, Sean T.
Abstract:: Few navigation-assistance technologies for vision impaired individuals are practical due to inhibiting factors such as cost, comfort, convenience, and overall usefulness of the assistance. This thesis will present the design and implementation of a navigation assistance system intended to address these concerns. The presented system improves on existing technologies by...

The Women's March 2017: Predicting Participation in an Unprecedented Protest

Creator:: Mina, Catherine Ligaya
Abstract:: On January 21, 2017, the United States bore witness to the largest single-day demonstration in history—the Women’s March. This mixed methods study uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative data in an attempt to predict participation in this infamous protest. I divulge the ways in which the 2017 Women’s March...

Using Divertor Strike Point Splitting to Understand Plasma Response and its Sensitivity Equilibrium Uncertainty

Creator:: Teklu, Abraham M.
Abstract:: Soon the largest fusion project in the world, ITER, will attempt to produce more fusion power than required to sustain the fusion reaction, this is known as ignition. The tokamak (a toroidal fusion device) being built in France will be running at such high temperatures that heat distribution is a...

A Philosophical Analysis of Ethical Considerations in Cuban Tourism

Creator:: Finlay, Samantha R.
Abstract:: Tourism is one of the largest industries in the world, and causes many cultural, environmental, and economic problems. In this thesis, I explore ethics in the field of tourism studies, and identify three ethical models used to discuss ethics in tourism, which are: business ethics, alternative tourism, and philosophical ethics....

Rheological Techniques in Characterization and Aiding in the Modification of Soft Matter

Creator:: Daalkhaijav, Uranbileg
Abstract:: Soft matter encapsulates a large array of materials ranging from electronics, plastics, and cosmetics to the biofluids making up all organisms. One of the most important properties of these materials that dictate their functionality is their rheology, which is the flow and deformation behavior in response to stress. The focus...

Elements of the Preschool Outdoor Play Environment : Associations with Children’s Physical Activity

Creator:: Hoke, Kelly L.
Abstract:: Preschool outdoor play environments (OPEs) are unique spaces that, when carefully designed, can encourage child-initiated play resulting in jumping, chasing, and exploration of materials and natural spaces (Moore, 1996). Specifically, elements of the OPE can facilitate movement and increase physical activity (Baek et al., 2015) through engaged, child-initiated play. Children...
