The effects of resistance exercise on lower extremity power in women with multiple sclerosis

Creator:: Summers, Louisa
Abstract:: A common perspective promoted by health care professionals is that exercise may help reduce symptoms and improve activities of daily living among persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). Yet, the effects of resistance exercise on power, functional mobility, and fatigue are largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to examine...

Development of two-variable maximum power point tracking control for ocean wave energy converters utilizing a power analysis and data acquisition system

Creator:: Amon, Ean A.
Abstract:: Ocean wave energy shows great potential as a developing form of renewable energy. However, challenges arise in maturing this technology to achieve cost-effective energy conversion. Development and testing of wave energy converters can be problematic due to the harsh environment in which they are operated. To promote development of this...

Radiographic validation and reliability of selected measures of pronation and biomechanical analysis of tarsal navicular displacement under static and dynamic loading conditions

Creator:: Hannigan-Downs, Kim
Abstract:: The navicular drop test (NDT), Feiss' line (FL) and standing foot angle (SFA) are clinical tests used to estimate the amount of pronation via inferior displacement of the tarsal navicular. Thirty-two patients (female and male, ages 18-65) who sought medical treatment for lower extremity pathologies participated in the study that...

Childhood cancer and spatial analyses of benzene exposure in Texas

Creator:: Roberts, Mark T.
Abstract:: Childhood cancers are rare diseases that affect 188 children in Texas for every million born. Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer and accounts for roughly one third of childhood cancer cases. However, it is estimated that only 10% of childhood cancer cases can be explained by known risk factors....

On the design, modeling, and testing of ocean wave energy converters

Creator:: Bosma, Bret
Abstract:: Ocean wave energy converter technology continues to advance and new developers continue to emerge, leading to the need for a general design, modeling, and testing methodology. This work presents a development of the process of taking a wave energy converter from a concept to the prototype stage. A two body...

Development of innovative applications for passive sampling devices : monitoring bioavailability, risk from exposure and environmental mixture toxicity

Creator:: Allan, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Chemicals must be bioavailable for there to be a potential for exposure and consequent risk to human or environmental health. Passive sampling devices (PSDs) are used to quantify the time-integrated concentration of bioavailable contaminants. We demonstrate that PSDs can be paired with the zebrafish developmental toxicity bioassay to produce site-specific,...

Application of Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller for Ocean Wave Energy Conversion Systems

Creator:: Haider, Ali S.
Abstract:: This work addresses the application of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) to a class of ocean wave energy conversion systems in which the cost functional is not in a standard quadratic form, and the WEC model includes the nonlinear effects, such as the hydrodynamic viscous drag. The NMPC implementation is...

Explorations Into Who is Doing Freshwater Science and How We are Altering Waterscapes

Creator:: Abernethy, Erin F.
Abstract:: The United States of America and the world are faced with three massive intertwining challenges at this time: COVID-19, racial inequity, and climate change. As a species, humans must come together and collectively address these challenges to preserve our humanity and make our world a more just and livable place...

Bridging environmental physiology and community ecology : temperature effects at the community level

Creator:: Iles, Alison C.
Abstract:: Most climate change predictions focus on the response of individual species to changing local conditions and ignore species interactions, largely due to the lack of a sound theoretical foundation for how interactions are expected to change with climate and how to incorporate them into climate change models. Much of the...
