The spillways

Creator:: Rasmussen, Kimberly Ann
Abstract:: The Spillways is a collection of poetry investigating a wide range of themes: identity, memory, loss, illness, labor, suffering, and grief. At times, the poems investigate place−in the physical and natural world−as a driving force of the speaker's identity. Many of the poems also consider the role of work and...

Spinal control mechanisms in elite level, explosively-trained athletes from two different sports

Creator:: Zidek, Marie E.
Abstract:: Mechanisms of motor control and function are interesting to those from the medical, athletic training and sports performance professions primarily during the development of conditioning and rehabilitation programs. The aim of this study was to assess spinal control mechanisms in two groups of explosively trained, female athletes from a NCAA...

Region based image matching for 3D object recognition

Creator:: Liu, Tian
Abstract:: 3D object recognition is a very difficult and important problem in computer vision, arising in a wide range of applications. Typically in 3D object recognition, interest points are extracted from images and then matched. A shortcoming of this approach is that points only carry local visual information. Therefore, there could...

Hybrid visualization of asymmetric tensor fields : glyphs and hyperstreamlines

Creator:: Palke, Darrel
Abstract:: Asymmetric tensor fields are useful for understanding fluid flow and solid deformation. They present new challenges, however, for traditional tensor field visualization techniques such as hyperstreamline placement and glyph packing. This is because the physical behavior of tensors inside real domains where eigenvalues are real is fundamentally different from the...

Assessing mental workload and situation awareness in the evaluation of real-time, critical user interfaces

Creator:: Strawn, Jordan J.
Abstract:: While there are many ways to evaluate a user interface design, the user's mental workload and situation awareness (SA) are particularly important considerations in the supervisory control of safety-critical systems. Typically, operators of these systems must monitor high-volume, time-sensitive status information. Interface design for this domain can be challenging and...

Mechanical design under changing customer requirements case study : BugID

Creator:: Fagan, Chris R.
Abstract:: Customer requirements and engineering specifications will influence the direction of the design in any product, so it is crucial to make the requirements as stable as possible so quality designs can be produced on time within a budget. It would be optimal for requirements and specifications to remain constant but...

Perceived comfort of three styles of men's running pants

Creator:: Christel, Deborah A.
Abstract:: Athletic workout clothing is designed to help the wearer stay comfortable, cool, and dry. There are several different styles of athletic apparel available at retailers and each individual has a preference as to what is comfortable for him or her. Comfort of clothing has traditionally been related to the fabric...

Morrison’s Magical Reality: Disrupting the Politics of Memory

Creator:: Littke, Amanda L.
Abstract:: Novelist Toni Morrison is well-known for using the concept she calls rememory, or the process of actively revisiting and reconstructing a cultural past. Many critics agree that Morrison uses rememory in a strategic way, so that it provides sturdy framework for a larger discussion of issues of race, class, and...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

A computer-assisted qualitative data analysis framework for the engineering management domain

Creator:: Saeedi, Amirali
Abstract:: Qualitative data analysis (QDA) is a time consuming and, potentially unreliable research activity. In qualitative research, a number of tasks must be repeated for every new research case, even if each case is closely related or is in the same area of study. Existing QDA applications provide users with a...

Understanding the ultra-wideband channel within a computer chassis

Creator:: Redfield, Stephen J.
Abstract:: Recent developments in computing technology have generated a demand for more streamlined and effective test systems. By replacing traditional in-chassis wired interconnects with a broadcast wireless system, fault detection and error susceptibility will drastically improve, input/output capabilities will expand, and routing complexity will decrease. Ultra-wideband impulse radio's (UWB-IR) characteristic multipath-immunity...
