  • The Islamic Prohibition on Interest : Muslim Americans’ Financial Understandings, Attitudes, and Behavior

    Creator:
    Moussaoui, Ibrahim
    Abstract:
    In Islam, paying and receiving interest is prohibited based on the belief that money should not be a commodity that is “rented” out; instead, Islamic lending structures arrange loans on an equity basis. This work examines the historical origins of interest prohibition and explains how different Islamic financial products provide...

  • In silico screening of nanoporous materials for gas sensing and separation

    Creator:
    Gantzler, Nickolas
    Abstract:
    The utility of high-throughput, computational screening has become an invaluable asset to the field of materials science. In the hierarchy of computational methods, the most accurate methods are often the most computationally expensive. However, as both the efficiency and fidelity of numerical techniques advance, high-quality screening of large materials datasets...

  • Growth, Characterizations, and Applications of Patterned Nanostructured Thin Film

    Creator:
    Gao, Zhongwei
    Abstract:
    A unique microreactor-assisted nanomaterial synthesis and printing process was studied for the fabrication of patterned metal oxide nanostructured thin films. The process uses a continuous flow microreactor to control and generate a reactive chemical flux that was transported to a patterned microfluidic channel. The microreactor-assisted nanomaterial synthesis process can generate...

  • An Anthology of Next-Generation WSNs and Transformative IoT Use-Cases

    Creator:
    Williams, Jennifer M.
    Abstract:
    The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm brought an ever-increasing dependence on low-power devices to collect sensor data and transmit that information to the cloud, placing greater demand on connectivity and lifespan. In response, rapid worldwide innovation demonstrates the trade-offs in processing, communication, and energy consumption with diverse approaches to low-power...
