Simulation of coastal processes in a circular wave basin

Creator:: Katzev, David H.
Abstract:: The circular wave basin provides a means of physically modeling the nearshore without the typical problems associated with end walls. Three different coastal processes were examined to demonstrate the use of a spiral wavemaker in a circular wave basin. These were longshore currents, shear waves, and groin circulation. A beach...

Circular dichroism spectroscopy and the conformational analysis of globular proteins in the native and denatured state

Creator:: Compton, Larry A.
Abstract:: A simple matrix method for the analysis of protein circular dichroism (CD) spectra is presented and used to compute the secondary structure of globular proteins in their native and denatured states. The method uses singular value decomposition and generalized inverse algorithms, and a basis set of CD spectra for proteins...

A double-stranded secondary structure for hyaluronic acid in aqueous-organic solvent as revealed by vacuum ultraviolet circular dichroism

Creator:: Staskus, Paul
Abstract:: The association of hyaluronic acid (HA) into a double stranded structure has been investigated by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy into the vacuum ultraviolet region. The CD of HA changes dramatically, monitoring a cooperative transition as the dielectric constant of an aqueous solution is reduced by adding organic solvents. This structural...

Behavior of cellular bulkheads in deep sands

Creator:: Maitland, James Keith
Abstract:: Large-scale experiments on circular model cell bulkheads were conducted to define the distribution of hoop stresses, deflections of the cells, distortion of the cell fill, ultimate overturning resistance, and the critical mode of failure. The embedment depth of the model cells was varied to investigate the effect of embedment on...

Numerical design of a high-flux microchannel solar receiver

Creator:: Rymal, Charles
Abstract:: This thesis discusses the design of several microchannel solar receiver devices for use in CSP (concentrated solar power) using CFD (computational fluid dynamics) simulations. The goal is to demonstrate that, by taking advantage of the higher heat transfer coefficienct of microchannels, solar receivers can achieve higher efficiency than current receiver...

Large scale model testing of the FMC submerged wave attenuation device

Creator:: Huber, David S.
Abstract:: This report describes the hydrodynamic testing and evaluation of a one-tenth scale model of the FMC Wave Attenuation Device. The purpose of the test was to quantify the wave attenuation characteristics and structural loading induced by a test program of monochromatic incident waves on the submerged structure. The device was...

Weighted vest exercise improves functional ability in women over 75 years of age

Creator:: Protiva, Karen W.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of long-term weighted vest exercise on hip bone mass, functional ability and static balance in elderly women. This was a within subject exercise intervention study and included a 6-month control period. Twenty-three subjects (age 85 ± 6) were recruited and...

The effects of four modified elements of a classroom's physical environment on the social-psychological environment of a class

Creator:: Johnson, Russell Howard
Abstract:: Purpose of the Study This investigation was an attempt to determine the relative suitability of four physical seating arrangements, conventional, crescent, circular, and non-seating, in terms of their positive attitudinal and interactional impacts on four senior high school social studies classes who are enrolled with the same teacher during different...

Adaptation of molecular filtration for recovery of fish viruses from water

Creator:: Watanabe, Robin Aiko
Abstract:: The effectiveness of tangential flow filtration (TFF) for recovery of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) and infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) from large volumes of water was evaluated. In laboratory studies, virus recovery from IHNV-seeded water following concentration by TFF was approximately 13%. However, addition of 0.1 and 1% FBS...
