  • Waste Heat Recovery Using Thermochemical Energy Storage

    Creator:
    Walker, Irene
    Abstract:
    Industrial waste heat composed of saturated liquid water can be redirected to charge a thermochemical energy storage (TCES) system. This energy can be stored long-term in the inherently energy-dense chemical bonds and used for space heating. Initial reactor scale cycling experiments were conducted in tandem with TCES material improvements. Hydration...

  • Biophysical Characterization of the Yorkie-Mask Complex

    Creator:
    Bessette, Hannah
    Abstract:
    Yes-associated protein (YAP) in mammals and Yorkie (Yki) in Drosophila are functionally homologous proteins that partner with transcription factors to promote cell proliferation. The Drosophila protein Mask and its mammalian homolog MASK1 are examples of transcription factors that are essential for Yki/ YAP to drive transcription of target genes. Increased...

  • Controlled Orientation of Engineered Carbonic Anhydrase on a Surface : A Model for Protein Immobilization for Biosensors and Biomaterials

    Creator:
    Brown, Wesley
    Abstract:
    Current protein immobilization techniques lack defined control over protein orientation. Protein orientation is important for making biosensors and biomaterials that are sensitive and efficient and can be crucial for designing some devices such as immunosensors or direct electron transferring biocells. A new method of protein immobilization is proposed that takes...

  • An Interactive Tool for Teaching Transmission Line Concepts

    Creator:
    Scheible, Keaton
    Abstract:
    In college transmission lines courses, students are expected to understand how different circuit configurations affect the signals on a transmission line. Having a way to visualize these signals can greatly improve their learning experience. This thesis details the development of an open source, interactive learning tool used to illustrate fundamental...
