  • Modeling and Finite Element Analysis of a Standard Concrete Canoe

    Creator:
    Stache, Stephanie S.
    Abstract:
    This thesis project provides a guiding framework for the structural analysis portion of the National Concrete Canoe Competition (NCCC). Step-by-step instructions on how to 3-dimensionally model a “standard” sized concrete canoe in AutoCAD Civil 3D, import the model into SAP2000, and proceed to analyze the canoe with the SAP2000 finite...

  • Exercise Habits, Adult Attachment Styles, and HPA-Axis Hypersensitivity

    Creator:
    Chrisman-Miller, Zoe
    Abstract:
    This is the first study to link exercise with adult romantic attachment style in a university setting. Previous research has associated insecure attachment styles, particularly those associated with high levels of anxiety, with increased pain sensitivity. This thesis hypothesizes that the mechanism responsible for this relationship will correlate with the...

  • Location of the neutral axis in wood beams

    Creator:
    Holm, Sarah C.
    Abstract:
    It is commonly accepted that for the analysis of wood beams, the neutral axis coincides with the centroid of the beam. Although this assumption is used in analysis, wood is not an isotropic material, as it has different elastic properties in the tangential, radial and longitudinal directions, nor is it...

  • Investigation, analysis and design of an experiment to test ponding loads on flexible roof systems

    Creator:
    Stark, Duncan
    Abstract:
    While damages due to ponding are common and expensive, provisions for design and construction of flat roof systems lack guidance regarding these loads. The goal of this research is to present methods of designing or building flat roofs that are less vulnerable to this condition. An investigation of the literature,...

  • Light Backscatter: Shedding New Light on Milk Coagulation

    Creator:
    Miller, Rachel A.
    Abstract:
    Milk collected from individual cows (n= 31) was centrifuged to equalize fat composition and was tested during chymosin-induced coagulation to compare the influences of somatic cell level, breed, parity, protein composition, and lactation stage on coagulation rate. Coagulation rate was determined using diffuse reflectance. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated for...

  • Identification of Autophagy Related Genes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

    Creator:
    Miller, Carlin
    Abstract:
    A primary target of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the human alveolar macrophage. Infection by this bacterium can lead to a variety of responses, such as apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis, which may be involved in controlling the infection. M. tuberculosis has evolved mechanisms to evade or use the host-mediated processes to its...
