Depth-dependence of surf zone eddies : a study at Duck, NC

Creator:: Aiken, Rebecca A.
Abstract:: Surf zone eddies (f < 0.01 Hz) are important in nearshore mixing, shoreline erosion, the distribution of pollutants, and ecological processes, such as offshore transport of larvae. Surf zone eddies have traditionally been treated as two-dimensional features with horizontal length scales larger than the local water depth. Studies by Lippmann...

The biosynthesis of ethylene from methionine in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Jones, Paul Aikens
Abstract:: Methionine metabolism, leading to the biosynthesis of ethylene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae does not appear to involve S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid (ACC), based on the lack of ethylene synthesis when both SAM and ACC were incubated in the presence and absence of cells. Thus, the mechanism leading to the formation...

Thermal hydraulic analysis of a U-tube steam generator in a pressurized water reactor

Creator:: Chadly, Peter Brent
Abstract:: A vital safety concern in the analysis of nuclear power reactors is the thermal hydraulic behavior of the reactor coolant system under steady state and transient conditions. The goal of this study has been to develop an appropriate model for the U-tube type steam generators in a typical pressurized water...

A RETRAN model for a hypothetical steam line break occurring at low power operation of the Trojan Nuclear Plant

Creator:: Jensen, Peter John
Abstract:: The goal of this study is the modeling of a postulated break of the steam line at the containment penetration of the Trojan Nuclear Plant which is owned and operated by Portland General Electric. To perform this modeling, the RETRAN computer code package was utilized. RETRAN is designed to provide...

Properties of hydrogels for immobilization of bacteria in a commercial microfluidic dioreactor

Creator:: Weymann, Davis
Abstract:: Current technological shortcomings limit the economic viability of capturing and utilizing small sources of methane. The development of a reactor to overcome these limitations would unlock economic opportunity and incentivize reduced methane emissions. A microfluidic bioreactor containing immobilized methanotrophs has the potential to overcome these limitations by profitably converting small...

Development and implementation of an improved formulation of the momentum balance for a Once Through Steam Generator transient model

Creator:: Luo, Shyr Tung
Abstract:: A detailed formulation of the momentum equation including the Baroczy model for two phase friction is presented in this thesis. Numerical techniques for solving this equation along with the remainder of the describing equations are also presented. This model has been incorporated into an existing thermal hydraulic code for simulating...

The evaluation of the field vane shear strength analysis of the Glen Aiken creek embankment failure

Creator:: Clarke, James Dennis
Abstract:: A post-failure investigation of a highway embankment constructed over organic and sensitive subsoils was made with a series of field vane tests. The results indicated that the embankment was quite stable, and, therefore, the reliabilities of both the Φ = 0 slip-circle analysis and the field vane results seemed to...

The missile hazard of surface traffic accidents to nuclear power plants

Creator:: Earle, Otis Keener
Abstract:: A method is presented for appraising the hazards to nuclear power plants from missiles from surface traffic accident explosions. Due to the infrequency with which surface traffic accident explosions occur and the poor records kept concerning them, a probabilistic method is chosen to investigate the overall hazards potential to nuclear...

Evaluating the Effect of Emotions on Student Learning using Prescriptive and Open-ended Lab Activities for a Lean Manufacturing Engineering Course

Creator:: Perez, Maritza
Abstract:: Research has shown that emotional connections during lab activities increase learning in chemistry and physics courses. However, little research has examined the effects of emotion in engineering courses, and these studies have recognized a dearth of research examining the ability of students to apply engineering concepts in real-world applications based...
