  • Quasi-stationary atmospheric responses to large-scale forcing

    Creator:
    Kang, In-sik
    Abstract:
    A time-dependent, spectral, barotropic model and a similar two-layer primitive equation model are developed to investigate the planetary-scale wave responses to various types of large-scale forcing: vorticity and heat sources, and sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies. Both models are linearized about the zonal mean states of January climatology. The characteristics...

  • Argumentation and equity in inquiry-based science instruction : reasoning patterns of teachers and students

    Creator:
    Irish, Tobias E. L.
    Abstract:
    This multiple case study explores issues of equity in science education through an examination of how teachers' reasoning patterns compare with students' reasoning patterns during inquiry-based lessons. It also examines the ways in which teachers utilize students' cultural and linguistic resources, or funds of knowledge, during inquiry-based lessons and the...

  • Teacher argumentation in the secondary science classroom : images of two modes of scientific inquiry

    Creator:
    Gray, Ron E.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this exploratory study was to examine scientific arguments constructed by secondary science teachers during instruction. The analysis focused on how arguments constructed by teachers differed based on the mode of inquiry underlying the topic. Specifically, how did the structure and content of arguments differ between experimentally and...

  • Urban military operation mobility model

    Creator:
    Kang, Ho Sung
    Abstract:
    A Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork (MANET) is collection of wireless mobile nodes without a network infrastructure or centralized administration. Although MANETs can be used in many applications, such as mobile Internet, military communication, and disaster relief networks, a number of challenges remain. These include routing, medium access control, security, scalability, energy...

  • Multiobjective decision making in industrial energy and environmental planning

    Creator:
    Kang, Hee Jung
    Abstract:
    Multiobjective Decision Making (MODM) has been suggested for the solution of complicated decision problems. Decision analysis in numerous areas, including industrial energy and environmental planning, necessarily requires consideration of multiple conflicting objectives. MODM has been successfully applied to a number of these problems of this type. Moreover, it has the...

  • Comparing lifespan and life course perspectives on combat exposure and PTSD symptoms in later life : findings from the normative aging study

    Creator:
    Kang, Sungrok
    Abstract:
    We examined how the experiences of World War II and Korean War veterans, including prewar, warzone, and postwar factors, affected PTSD symptoms in later life. This dissertation consists of two studies. In Study 1, four different hypotheses from a lifespan approach were examined (King et al., 1996): stress evaporation (only...

  • Trace forms and self-dual normal bases in Galois field extensions

    Creator:
    Kang, Dong Seung
    Abstract:
    Let G be a finite group, G₂ be a Sylow 2-subgroup of G, and L/K be a G-Galois extension. We study the trace form qL/K of L/K and the question of existence of a self-dual normal basis. Our main results are as follows: (1) If G₂ is not abelian and...

  • Supercritical fluid impregnation with biocides of wood using temperature reduction

    Creator:
    Kang, Sung-Mo
    Abstract:
    Supercritical fluid (SCF) impregnation is a promising preservative treatment method, however, the development of SCF processes has been slowed by a limited understanding of the process. Developing a better understanding of the effects of various process parameters on treatment results would allow for a more rational development of SCF impregnation....

    Creator:
    Kang, Ey Jung
    Abstract:
    The effects of the residual salt of surimi on biochemical and physical properties as affected by various freeze and thaw cycles were examined. Fresh Alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) surimi was mixed with 4.0% sugar, and 5.0% sorbitol, along with eight combinations of salt (0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 % NaCl)...

  • A comparison of family tax burdens in eleven western states

    Creator:
    Kang, Charles Shinchul
    Abstract:
    This study seeks to estimate and compare tax burdens for hypothetical families assumed to reside in each of the eleven contiguous Western states--Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The estimates are made for a wide range of incomes--from $3,500 to $50,000--in each state....
