Multiscale analysis of saturated flow in a porous medium with an adjacent thin channel

Creator:: Morales, Fernando A.
Abstract:: This thesis contains three parts addressing the asymptotic analysis of fluid flow through fully saturated porous medium in the presence of an adjacent thin channel. In the first part the problem is modeled by Darcy's law in both the porous medium and in the channel. The permeability in the channel...

Quantities of prostaglandins in whole and extended bovine semen and their potential effect on fertility following insemination

Creator:: Jaeger, John Ralph
Abstract:: Our objectives were to determine 1) the concentration of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) in whole and extended bovine semen, 2) if concentrations of prostaglandins in extended bovine semen are correlated to fertility, and 3) if PGF2α administered at the time of artificial insemination would improve conception rate. Concentration of PGF2α tended...

The relationship of full day kindergarten, children's self-regulation, and early academic achievement

Creator:: Alonso, Jessica, G.
Abstract:: Strong self-regulation skills can predict academic success in early childhood contexts, specifically for math and literacy skills, thus laying the foundation for future success (McClelland & Cameron, 2012; McClelland & Ponitz, 2011). Children’s exposure to increased instructional time in school through programs such as full day kindergarten (FDK) has also...

Examining multidimensional resilience in at-risk adolescents

Creator:: Taylor, Amanda L.
Abstract:: The bulk of resilience research has focused on developmental outcomes in a single domain of functioning (e.g., academic achievement), overlooking the complex interplay of positive and negative developmental outcomes that may co-occur within an individual (Luthar, Cicchetti, & Becker, 2000). Resilience may strengthen over time and across domains (e.g., psychological...

"And when they woke up... they were monkeys!" Using classroom games to improve preschoolers's behavioral self-regulation

Creator:: Tominey, Shauna L. M.
Abstract:: Behavioral self-regulation has emerged as an important predictor of academic success as early as preschool. Few studies, however, have examined ways to improve children's behavioral self-regulation in preschool, prior to formal school entry. This dissertation includes two studies examining a pilot intervention using classroom games to improve behavioral self-regulation with...

The Impact of COVID-19 and Changing Peer Network Structures on Disordered Eating Behaviors among Female Undergraduates

Creator:: Taylor, Nina R.
Abstract:: Many female undergraduate students engage in disordered eating, an umbrella term for sub clinical behaviors such as food restriction, binge eating, over exercising, and general preoccupation with food, weight, and body. Depending on the type of behavior and the length of time engaged with the behavior, disordered eating behaviors can...

A Theoretical and Research Exploration of Identity Development in Young Adults Who Have Experienced Psychosis or Schizophrenia

Creator:: Hayden-Lewis, Katherine A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this dissertation was to contribute to the current understanding about identity development in young adults who experience psychosis and schizophrenia. The article in Chapter 2 Using Authentic Identity Theories to Address the Stigmatization of Young People Who Experience Psychosis and Schizophrenia examined the literature on identity development...

An experimental study of co-flow ammonia-water desorption in an oil-heated, microscale, fractal-like branching heat exchanger

Creator:: Mouchka, Gregory A.
Abstract:: An experimental study was performed in which an ammonia-water solution was desorbed within a branching fractal-like microchannel array. The solution entered in the center of a disk, and flowed out radially until discharging in to a gravity-driven separation chamber. Heat was added to the ammonia-water through a thin wall, above...

Upscaling non-Darcy flow using mixed finite element method

Creator:: Garibotti, Cristiano Rodrigues
Abstract:: In this paper we develop an upscaling technique for non-Darcy flow in porous media. Non-Darcy model of flow applies to flow in porous media when large velocities occur. The well-posedness results for theory of quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations. To discretize the model we used lowest order Raviart-Thomas mixed finite...

On the Existence of Solutions to the Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations with Constant Energy and Enstrophy

Creator:: Hagen, Sarah S.
Abstract:: In this dissertation, we use Fourier-analytic and spectral theory methods to analyze the behavior of solutions of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in 2D and 3D (with an eye towards better understanding turbulence). In particular, we investigate the possible existence of so-called ghost solutions to the Navier-Stokes Equations. Such solutions, if...
