A Framework for Designing Task-Specific Robot Hands Based on Task Decomposition and Sub-Task Performance Benchmarks

Creator:: Campbell, Joshua M.
Abstract:: As technologies like 3D printing increase in prevalence and capabilities, having a robot hand specifically designed for a given manipulation task also becomes more feasible. Leading to the question of how to design a robot hand for a specific manipulation task. To answer this question, I propose we need three...

Automated Synthesis of Hybrid Energy Network Optimization using A* & Ensemble Forecasting

Creator:: Luc, Jonathan H.
Abstract:: This thesis describes a method for automatically generating and evaluating small-scale off-grid energy systems. Such systems are comprised of components such as solar panels, residential-scale wind turbines, batteries, inverters and charge controllers. These disparate components are assembled into feasible networks through the use of topological optimization and graph grammar rules....

Photochemical reduction of carbon dioxide in aqueous and ionic liquid solutions in a microreactor with TiO₂ catalyst; experiment and modeling

Creator:: Campbell, Travis J.
Abstract:: Microtechnology was used to study the chemical reduction of dissolved carbon dioxide into useful products. A novel TiO₂ photocatalyst was used to activate the reaction under ultraviolet irradiation. CO₂ was dissolved in aqueous and 50% BMIM-BF₄ (ionic liquid) solutions. The introduction of an ionic liquid increased the solubility of CO₂...

Allocation in Health Care : Antecedent Conditions and Catholic Insights

Creator:: Hosford, Laura L.
Abstract:: This research was aimed at providing the foundation for changing standards of care in a critical care setting using Catholic concepts of respect for human dignity, subsidiarity, common good, and solidarity as a matter of social justice. I first unpacked the nature of ICU care and the inevitability of the...

Implementing a Multi-Agent Approach to a Graph-Based Topology Optimization

Creator:: Bai, Gaofeng
Abstract:: In order to solve some classic problems in traditional topology optimization, such as unknown material distribution, checker-boarding and curse of dimensionality, this thesis introduces a new method to construct a mechanical structure that can reduce mass and increase stiffness. It uses a graph to represent the skeleton of a structure....

Automated Synthesis of Planar Mechanisms with Revolute, Prismatic and Pin-In-Slot Joints

Creator:: Huang, Weifeng
Abstract:: The intent of this research is to explore the entire design space of mechanism topologies by using a graph grammar synthesis approach. A new graph representation of planer mechanism has been developed to represent the planar mechanism with revolute (R), prismatic (P), and pin-in-slot (RP) joints. Following Gruebler's equation, the...

Hospice nurses as "midwives to the dying" : guiding life's important journeys

Creator:: Cox, Jessica C.
Abstract:: This thesis explores the metaphor of hospice nurses as "midwives to the dying" by applying philosophical inquiry to the field of hospice. I focus on the history of the movements, their professional approaches to caregiving, and the core commitments of both the modern midwifery and hospice movements. Although focused on...

Self-Care as Moral Responsibility: Contemplative Practice in Interdependent Communities of Care

Creator:: Davidson, Hunter M.
Abstract:: This thesis analyzes the ways in which the practices of yoga, mindfulness and meditation can be of benefit to hospice and palliative care practitioners in addressing job-related stress. The research suggests that these contemplative practices can be effective in addressing compassion fatigue among hospice and palliative care professionals. The thesis...

Using Digital Human Modeling to Evaluate and Improve Car Pillar Design: A Proof of Concept and Design of Experiments

Creator:: Mellon, Taylor R. P.
Abstract:: Considering human factors in early engineering design stages can improve expensive late stage processes, facilitate user safety, improve product quality and help reduce the need for physical prototyping. Currently, car pillar design (the vertical pillars between windows which connect the roof and car body) provide safety for the passengers in...

Life histories of juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Columbia River estuary as inferred from scale and otolith microchemistry

Creator:: Campbell, Lance A.
Abstract:: Despite evidence that juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) utilize North Pacific estuaries for growth and salinity acclimation, research in the Columbia River estuary has lead to opposing hypotheses about the estuary’s importance as a salmon rearing environment. Many contemporary tagging studies indicate that salmon residency within the estuary is short...
