Vacuum Testing of a Small Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator

Creator:: Mieloszyk, Alexander J.
Abstract:: Radioisotope Power Systems (RPS’s) are a key element to NASA’s deep space exploration programs. As NASA looks towards new generations of smaller, modular spacecraft, appropriately smaller RPS’s will be needed. The Single General Purpose Heat Source Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (S-GPHS-RTG) has been developed to fill this role. The S-GPHS-RTG will...

Achilles Assistance Device as a Passive Ankle Foot Orthosis for Achilles Tendon Injuries

Creator:: Gonnerman, Evan J.
Abstract:: An Achilles tendon injury can be devastating. Surgical methods to bring the muscle to full strength are not always available. Proposed is an ankle foot orthosis (AFO) that is entirely passive (does not add energy to the system) and uses the mechanical advantages provided by the walking gait of a...

Modeling the Fusion Reaction in an Inertial Electrostatic Confinement Reactor with the Particle-in-Cell Method

Creator:: van de Lindt, Jacob
Abstract:: Nuclear fusion has the potential to meet the energy needs of our civilization for centuries to come and does not produce harmful greenhouse gasses or produce long-lasting radioactive waste. A fusion reaction can be readily demonstrated in a confinement scheme known as inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion. In this work,...

Genetic and morphological evidence suggests cryptic speciation within the Torrent Sculpin, Cottus rhotheus, across the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Nicholas, Benjamin P.
Abstract:: Dwelling on the bottom of large rivers to high alpine streams, freshwater sculpins (genus Cottus) occur in high densities across the Pacific Northwest, with 21 currently recognized species found in the Pacific Northwest. Sculpin fill many ecological roles, with some species serving as important prey sources, and others competing with...

Impact of Unfolded Protein Response, USP14, and NEDD8 Inhibitors Upon Antigen Presentation in SaI/Ak and 4T1 Tumor Cell Lines

Creator:: Godil, Jamila A.
Abstract:: Antigen presentation is a mechanism used by cells to present peptides on the cell surface. Peptides, derived from both viral or self-proteins are presented on the cell surface by MHC Class I molecules to be recognized and detected by cytotoxic T cells. T cells comprise the defense system to protect...

Cytokine expression in Danio rerio (zebrafish) in response to TLR-7 agonist - Imiquimod

Creator:: Paternostro, Kevin Alan
Abstract:: Utilizing Danio rerio (zebrafish) as a model organism has gained popularity recently, however a lack of research into their immune response pathways had led to the discovery of subclinical infections, and has potentially confounded results. We conducted a study to determine the cytokine expression from TLR activation in order to...

Tabletop fusion reactors : construction and testing of a demonstration inertial electrostatic confinement fusor

Creator:: Holler, Logan R.
Abstract:: Nuclear fusion reactors comprise a significant field of study due to their potential to provide a limitless, clean, and sustainable source of energy. The inertial electrostatic confinement fusor is a type of fusion-generating device that accelerates deuterium gas to the conditions required for fusion. The goal of this research was...

Characterization and Prediction of Reactive Forces for Compressed 3D Printed Hyperelastic Lattice Structures

Creator:: So, David M.
Abstract:: In order to generate practical ways to easily design functional flexible lattice structures, this research seeks to find a way to predict reactive forces of compressed hyperelastic cubic lattice structures. Using 3D printed test coupons, material data was collected for use in finite element analysis. Cubic lattice structures with varying...

Evaluation of a Monoclonal Antibody for Studying MHC Class I Antigen Presentation In-Vitro

Creator:: VanderHoek, Eden N.
Abstract:: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family, is frequently dysregulated in a variety of cancers. Overexpression of the receptor leads to increased cell proliferation and resistance to cell death due to downstream signaling effects. Proteasomal degradation of HER2 results in the...

Experimental Investigation of Near-Critical Carbon Dioxide in Microchannels for High Flux Cooling Applications

Creator:: Travers, Kristen
Abstract:: With the continued decrease in size and subsequent increase in power of computer processors, thermal management in electronics is becoming more important than ever before. The chip heat densities are reaching new peaks (> 100 W cm-2) that current cooling methods are not able to keep up with. However, some...
