  • Ethnic Minority Students’ Barriers and Facilitators to Engaging in Campus Recreation

    Creator:
    Hoang, Tram V.
    Abstract:
    Purpose: Increasing enrollment numbers of multicultural students, and growing research between the relationship between student engagement and student success and retention heighten the importance of addressing student engagement in campus recreation. This study was conducted to explore the facilitators and barriers to underserved students participating in physical activity through campus...

  • Behooved to Remove: The Trump Administration's Effect on Immigration Judge Decision-Making

    Creator:
    Cochenour, Tucker J.
    Abstract:
    It has long been recognized by the legal community that when an immigrant seeks relief from deportation proceedings through the United States’ immigration courts, the proceedings they undertake are best seen as a game of chance depending on the Immigration Judge who is randomly assigned to their case. This thesis...

  • Influence of Soil Texture on Carbon Storage of PNW Coastal Blue Carbon Ecosystems

    Creator:
    Fox, Conner S.
    Abstract:
    Coastal blue carbon ecosystems offer a variety of important ecosystem services, including exceptional rates of carbon sequestration and long-term carbon storage. Because these ecosystems disproportionately influence global carbon cycling, understanding their soil characteristics may help guide long-term climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies. Recently, Kauffman et al. (2020) observed the...

  • Utilization of ground peanut husk as an alternative fiber material for particleboard

    Creator:
    Newton, Jacob A.
    Abstract:
    This research examined the potential for using peanut husk as a fiber alternative to wood in the production of melamine-formaldehyde (MF) particleboard. MF resin was used to produce panels with one, three, six, nine or 12 percent resin contents. Modulus of Rupture (MOR), Modulus of Elasticity (MOE), Internal Bond (IB)...

  • Thin Film Bi-based Perovskites for High Energy Density Capacitor Applications

    Creator:
    Shear, Colin David
    Abstract:
    Pulsed laser deposition was used to create 0.1-Bi(Zn₀.₅ Ti₀.₅)O₃-0.9-BaTiO₃ (BZT-BT) thin films to examine the effects of laser energy (2.25 or 2.5 J/cm²) , pulse frequency (2 Hz or 5 Hz), and deposition temperature (550, 600, 650, and 700°C) on the electrical properties of the films. These effects were analyzed...

  • Reactive Phase Change Materials for Enhanced Thermal Energy Storage

    Creator:
    Drake, Griffin S.
    Abstract:
    Effective storage and release of low-to-moderate temperature thermal energy (e.g. solar thermal or geothermal) could be transformational for applications such as space heating/cooling, domestic hot water, or off-grid cooking. Good candidates for thermal energy storage in this temperature range include latent heat storage (LHS) systems and thermochemical energy storage (TCES)...

  • 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 -...

  • Power Generation via a Thermoelectric Generator Driven by a Reversible Exothermic Reaction

    Creator:
    Bhatt, Renuka J.
    Abstract:
    Solar thermal energy can be stored and later converted to electrical energy using a combination of thermochemical energy storage (TCES) and a thermoelectric generator (TEG). This TEG and TCES combination illustrates a potential route for clean electricity storage from renewable energy. TCES allows for thermal energy from the sun to...

  • Particle Movement in a multi-chamber fluidized bed

    Creator:
    Tan, Chuan Hao
    Abstract:
    The goal of this project is to better characterize particle movement in a multi-channel fluidized bed. Fluidized beds are commonly used for heat transfer with the rapid fluidization and homogeneous heat distribution. By characterizing this particle flow, it would allow for an improved understanding of the heat transfer mechanisms within...
