Just a tool after all? No evidence for tool-use effects on the body representation across virtual and real environments

Creator:: Bell, Joshua D.
Abstract:: While human tool-use proficiency helped define our history, the cognitive and perceptual mechanics of how humans use tools are not fully understood. This question is of great value to the design of hand-held tools and prosthetics. A prominent theory, tool embodiment, suggests that tool use is facilitated by a flexible...

The Evolution of Software Entropy in Open Source projects: An Empirical Study

Creator:: Mannan, Umme Ayda
Abstract:: Software entropy impacts the overall quality of software systems. High entropy hinders developers from understanding the purpose of a piece of code and can cause developers to make sub-optimal changes and introduce bugs. Researchers have used entropy scores to measure the naturalness of code. However, thus far, no one has...

Adaptive Learning Module for Introduction to Materials Science

Creator:: Nigon, Nutnicha
Abstract:: There is a growing need for individualized instructional designs in 4-year institutions due to: 1) growing undergraduate enrollment trends across the U.S., 2) broader diversity in students backgrounds, and 3) the growing prevalence of asynchronous remote learning. With the growth in computer technology in education, tools such as adaptive intelligent...

Sound and Vibration Analysis of Alternative Rumble Strips

Creator:: Horne, Dylan Ross
Abstract:: Roadway departure crashes accounted for 18,275 fatal crashes in 2017 across the United States (Jones et al. 2017). Rumble strips (RS) provide audible and haptic interior alert when a vehicle is departing the roadway reducing run-off-the road crashes. Although inexpensive to install, and easy to maintain, RS are not installed...

Inferring Patterns and Processes of Emergence in Clonal Phytophthora Epidemics using Population Genomic Approaches

Creator:: Cauldron, Nicholas C.
Abstract:: Oomycete and fungal pathogens threaten food, fiber, and forests around the world. With climate change, these pathogens are expected to emerge more frequently. Evolution can facilitate their emergence through mechanisms such as mutations that change or expand host range. Characterizing evolutionary mechanisms in plant pathogens will contribute to our ability...

Advancements in Phytoremediation, Dosimetry, and Environmental Radiological Protection: Integrating Endemic Plants, Anatomically Accurate Phantoms, and Real-world Data for Improved Assessments

Creator:: Hargraves, Joshua T.
Abstract:: The environmental impact of the nuclear industry has prompted the need for innovative remediation strategies and accurate radiological assessments. This paper synthesizes three studies that collectively explore the potential of endemic plant species for phytoremediation, the development of anatomically accurate phantoms for precise dosimetry calculations, and the critical evaluation of...

The Evolution of Scleractinian Microbial Symbionts

Creator:: McMinds, Ryan C.
Abstract:: The modern world has presented many threats to the health and stability of ecosystems worldwide. One of the most biodiverse ecosystems, coral reefs, faces particularly strong pressures, and is already declining rapidly in complexity and area. Although the stressors that affect reefs are diverse, ranging from nutrient pollution to overfishing,...

Discursive and Psychological Processes in Project MATCH Treatment Manuals and 12-Step Program Literature

Creator:: O'Hara, Margaret A.
Abstract:: Addiction is a word that represents a condition that, at best, causes minor disruptions to one’s life and, at worst, is lethal. The current definition was developed by 80 neuroscientists. It references substance use and other behaviors and includes food and sex. Addictions do not seem to be lessening but...

Computational Modeling of Smoldering Combustion in Wildland Fuels

Creator:: Jayasuriya, Waduge Jayani A.
Abstract:: Smoldering combustion in wildland fires is a critical phenomenon that needs in-depth study because it can initiate with weaker ignition sources, can persist for long periods, is difficult to suppress, and can transit to flaming combustion. Cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin are the major organic constituents within biomass, in varying proportions...

Probing Aqueous Ion-Pairing and Speciation of Group V Polyoxometalates

Creator:: Sures, Dylan J.
Abstract:: Polyoxometalates are discrete anionic oxo clusters of the Group V and VI transition metals that can be conceptualized as molecular metal oxides. Because they are pairable with any alkali cation, a great deal of fundamental chemistry can be gleaned from their study, including solubility trends and insight into cation binding...
