Potential Additive-Manufacturing of Ablative Thermal Protection Systems

Creator:: Hazell, Kenya K.
Abstract:: Electrodeposition is a versatile polymer deposition technique to create nano-microscale materials using an electrical field generated from a charged droplet of solution and a grounded collector. Electrospinning or electrospraying can occur during electrodeposition, leading to the creation of nanofibers or bead-like materials depending on the process parameters. Photopolymerization of the...

John Archibald Wheeler : a study of mentoring in modern physics

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: This dissertation has two objectives. The first objective is to determine where best to situate the study of mentoring (i.e. the 'making of scientists') on the landscape of the history of science and science studies. This task is accomplished by establishing mentoring studies as a link between the robust body...

Transient electric birefringence for the characterization of cellulose nanocrystals and tobacco mosaic virus

Creator:: Taylor, Melissa J.
Abstract:: The development of a transient electric birefringence (TEB) apparatus for macroparticle characterization is herein discussed. The experimental difficulties encountered were related largely to poor data resolution. Misalignment and strain birefringence in optical components further complicated results. Improved data digitization methods were developed, and precise mathematical models were derived in order...

Tissue weighting factors for radiation protection : derivation and parametric analysis

Creator:: Makinson, Kevin A.
Abstract:: Tissue weighting factors, w[subscript T], used to convert equivalent dose to effective dose, account for differences in radiosensitivity of various organs in the human body and allow users to compare individual organ detriment to whole body risk. They are explicitly calculated in ICRP 26, 60, and 103, although the methods...

Building Character Through Metaphor and Ideology: A Rhetorical Examination of John F. Kennedy’s Use of Metaphor to Combat the Religious Issue in 1960

Creator:: Smith, Jonathan Michael
Abstract:: On September 12th 1960, just two months prior to one of the closest Presidential elections in American history, John F. Kennedy faced the Houston Ministerial Association and delivered a powerful speech on religion and Americanism. The "religious issue" of the 1960 campaign drew immense interest and trumped other issues pertinent...

Lipid Profile in Pinot Noir Wine: Contributions to Taste and Mouthfeel Perception, Impacts of Winemaking Techniques, and Potential Use As Markers for Identifying Wine Origin

Creator:: Phan, Quynh K.
Abstract:: Wine taste and mouthfeel are essential factors that determine consumer acceptance, consumer preference, and wine quality. The three taste descriptors, sweet, sour, and bitter, are well understood and routinely appearing in wine sensory. In contrast, information related to mouthfeel sensations is still relatively limited. Winemakers have worked hard to craft...

Water Efficiency for Urban Landscapes in Semi-Arid Environments

Creator:: Martinson, Richard W.
Abstract:: Urban landscape water use is increasingly a focus of water conservation efforts. This is especially true in the arid and semi-arid regions of the western United States where increased demand, environmental concerns, and extended periods of drought have created chronic water shortages. However, until recently, little attention has been paid...

Investigation of solution-based processes for functional metal oxides : printing, nanostructures, and applications

Creator:: Han, Seung-Yeol
Abstract:: The various solution-based processes, spin coating, inkjet printing, microreactor assisted nanoparticle deposition (MANDTM) and spin-successive ionic layer absorption and reaction (Spin-SILAR) were used to demonstrate thin film electronics and anti-reflective coatings. Several aspects of thin film transistors (TFTs) were tested including a range of temperatures, annealing atmosphere, and deposition methods....

Assessing Post-fire Tree and Understory Vegetation Response to a Mixed-severity Fire Gradient in the Klamath Mts., Oregon, USA

Creator:: Terzioglu, Cihat
Abstract:: Severe wildfires are increasing in the western United States, impacting vegetation structure, and in turn, forest regeneration conditions. These wildfires are also raising a substantial amount of scientific and management concern regarding the resilience of forested ecosystems, or the ability of the ecosystem to return to a pre-fire condition. This...

Trends in streamflow above and below dams across the Columbia River basin from 1950 to 2012 : assessing sub-basin sensitivity

Creator:: Hammond, John C.
Abstract:: Climate change, combined with population growth, is expected to exacerbate water scarcity globally. In the Columbia River basin (CRB), streamflow is managed for multiple objectives with a network of dams and reservoirs distributed throughout the basin that may mitigate climate change effects on water scarcity. This study quantified trends in...
