  • An Improved Chemical Kinetic Model Reduction in pyMARS for Liquid Propellants

    Creator:
    Moore, Cailin J.
    Abstract:
    The aerospace industry uses chemical kinetic models when designing propulsion systems to acquire specific details about the rate of chemical reactions, heat release, and combustion stability. These models, however, are too large and stiff to be useful as they can take weeks to run computations on. The pyMARS python package...

  • Locating and Observing Pulsars for Use in Gravitational Wave Detection

    Creator:
    Díaz, Ian H.
    Abstract:
    By studying gravitational waves, we can gain new insights into the merging events between massive objects such as black holes as well as neutron stars. Moreover, studying low-frequency waves allows us to observe merging events between supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies, which in turn allows us to...

  • Design of 3D-Printed Soft Pneunet Actuator for Robotic Fruit Harvesting

    Creator:
    Wilhelm, Lissette J. H.
    Abstract:
    This work details the development of 3D printed TPU pneunet actuators for use in apple picking for agricultural soft robotics. These actuators increase the force capabilities of soft pneunets and simplify manufacturing. Grippers based on these actuators are ideal for apple picking because they are compliant, yet exert sufficient force...

  • Predicting music emotion with social media discourse

    Creator:
    Beery, Aidan J.
    Abstract:
    Predicting the average affect of a piece of music is a task which has been of recent interest in the field of music information retrieval. We investigate the use of sentiment analysis on online social media conversations to predict a song’s valence and arousal. Using four music emotion datasets -...

  • Importance of TLR2 and TLR4 signaling against M. abscessus infection of macrophages and use of mycobacteriophage genomics toward understanding some of the aspects of phage therapy

    Creator:
    Kapoor, Hannah A.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacterium abscessus (MAB) is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for infections in immunocompromised or immunosuppressed patients. Even with long-term treatment with multiple antibiotics, MAB pulmonary infections have high rates of treatment failure. Within the host, MAB is phagocytosed by key innate immune cells macrophages. The TLR2 and TLR4 are two critical...

  • The Various Roles of LC8, a Human Hub Protein, in the Viral Replication Cycle

    Creator:
    Donner, Brianna L.
    Abstract:
    The phosphoprotein (P protein) in viruses of the Mononegavirales order is known to play an essential role in the completion of viral replication mechanisms. The P protein is involved in stabilizing the viral polymerase and nucleoprotein during RNA transcription and replication, regulating nascent RNA encapsidation by the nucleoprotein, and mediation...

  • Kinetics of plankton respiration across gradient of anoxic to oxic conditions

    Creator:
    Jayawickrama, Clare
    Abstract:
    Ocean deoxygenation is predicted to increase in severity over the next few decades, posing a threat to marine life and fishing economies. Improved predictions of ocean deoxygenation depend on a better understanding of the biogeochemical mechanisms that underly this process. Within the realm of biogeochemical mechanisms, this project specifically investigated...

  • Restoring and Updating the Micralyne μTK

    Creator:
    Wong, Derek H.
    Abstract:
    The Micralyne microfluidic toolkit (μTK) was an instrument built by Micralyne in the early 2000’s. It was built for electrophoresis and has a sensitive laser-induced fluorescence detection system. The updates to the system were upgrading the control GUI from running in LabVIEW 5 (Windows XP, 2000) to LabVIEW 2012 (Windows...

    Creator:
    Almulla, Yousif Waleed
    Abstract:
    Silicon based quantum computing is an attractive approach to large-scale quantum computation due to the significant success of the modern semiconductor fabrication industry. Despite many advances in silicon quantum computing since its inception in 1998, there remains no software for efficiently designing candidate silicon quantum computing devices. Such a development...
