A Fabrication Process and Analysis of ZnO-ZnS-Sb₂S3₃ Thin Film Solar Cells

Creator:: Catherall, David
Abstract:: The purpose of this research is to provide a simple fabrication method for zinc oxide and antimony sulfide based thin film solar cells. Both a ZnO nanorod electron conducting structure and a stibnite absorber show promise in a solar cell. Initial attempts at using only ZnO and Sb2S3, however, resulted...

An Improved Chemical Kinetic Model Reduction in pyMARS for Liquid Propellants

Creator:: Moore, Cailin J.
Abstract:: The aerospace industry uses chemical kinetic models when designing propulsion systems to acquire specific details about the rate of chemical reactions, heat release, and combustion stability. These models, however, are too large and stiff to be useful as they can take weeks to run computations on. The pyMARS python package...

Bees of the Pacific Northwest : key to Lasioglossum species for females of the subgenera Hemihalictus, Sphecodogastra, and Evylaeus in Oregon (Hymenoptera : Halictidae)

Creator:: Engler, Joseph D., Gorman, Mark, Cappaert, David, Stanton, Marek, Best, Lincoln R., and Jackson, August S.
Abstract:: The following taxonomic keys are adapted in part from the subgeneric and species descriptions and keys produced by McGinley (2003), Gibbs et al. (2013) and Gardner and Gibbs (2022). Additional identification information was provided by Jason Gibbs, Thilina Hettiarachchi (University of Manitoba), and Joel Gardner (Washington State University). While these...

Removing Residual Lane Markings to Reduce Driver Confusion

Creator:: Weber, Jane B.
Abstract:: When pavement markings on roadways are removed, scarring can occur leaving behind traces of where the marking used to be called ghost lines. These ghost lines can confuse drivers on the roadway and divert their attention from the correct lane markings leading them into the false lane. Previous research has...

Preliminary X2 language reference manual

Creator:: Sandberg, David
Abstract:: X2 is an object-oriented programming language. Object-oriented programming models everything in the world as objects that have some local state that may vary with time. If the state of an object varies with time the object is mutable. If the state is time independent the object is immutable. Each object's...
