  • Variability in the condition of juvenile Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, at the Western Antarctic Peninsula

    Creator:
    Shah, Radhika S.
    Abstract:
    Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, are a highly abundant zooplankton species found in the Southern Ocean. They are a key food choice for higher trophic levels and are important consumers near the base of the food web. Changes to the environment of the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), as a result of...

  • The Impact of Material Handling on Manufacturing Process Plan Selection

    Creator:
    Sargent, Ian E.
    Abstract:
    The total manufacturing cost for a part is determined by its process plan, and the total cost includes both processing and material handling costs. This research examines the cost impact of assuming an arbitrary layout when evaluating alternative process plans for production in a new facility. A designed experiment was...

  • An analysis of control area synchronization on the convergence of distributed state estimators

    Creator:
    Clarke, Blaise
    Abstract:
    This honors undergraduate thesis examines the process of simulating power system state estimation, the use of the alternating direction method of multipliers in the problem of distributed power system state estimation, and provides a rudimentary asynchronous implementation of the above for a linearized DC power system. The asynchronous implementation is...

  • Priority asset utilization in parallel replacement analysis

    Creator:
    Wagner, Tristan John
    Abstract:
    Two policies for allocating individual assets from a pool of assets to incoming requests were contrasted within the context of replacement analysis. Assets within a pool are considered similar in the service they provide, but may differ in age and cumulative usage. The two policies considered for allocating assets to...

  • Utilization of Robot Ankle Torque to Account for Foot Placement Error

    Creator:
    Bernards, Mitchell F.
    Abstract:
    Modern walking robots have shown that dynamic gaits can be achieved without ankle motors. It seems logical that the additional control authority that they provide can be used to improve the stability of the walking gait against foot placement errors caused by low level control. This thesis develops and compares...

  • Role of Nitrated Hsp90 in Schwannoma Cell Survival

    Creator:
    Kim, Sharon R.
    Abstract:
    Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) is a genetic tumor disorder caused by mutations that inactivate the gene coding for the Merlin tumor suppressor. Patients with NF2 develop multiple tumors throughout the nervous system, mainly schwannomas, for which there is no cure or effective treatment. In NF2, redox signaling and oxidative stress...

  • Introduction of a Mathematical Model to Characterize Relative Risk of Snakebite Envenoming, a Neglected Tropical Disease

    Creator:
    Kim, Soyeon
    Abstract:
    Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease that has received increased research attention in the past few years. However, snakebite prevalence and impact in India has been a neglected area of study, despite the high disease burden in this region. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches to studying snakebite processes are...

  • Chromosomal Recombination Targets in Chlamydial Lateral Gene Transfer In Vitro

    Creator:
    Kim, Debbie Blue
    Abstract:
    Background: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) among C. trachomatis strains is common, both in isolates generated in the laboratory and those examined directly from patients. This is a challenging concept because there are very few examples of recent acquisition of foreign DNA by Chlamydia spp. There is no understanding of the...

  • Assessing an Adult Zebrafish Model for In Vivo Delivery of Morpholino Oligomers

    Creator:
    Kim, Joseph Y.
    Abstract:
    Antisense morpholino oligomers are synthetic macromolecules can modify gene expression. While these compounds have great potential to treat a broad range of human diseases, they suffer from poor cellular delivery. Conjugating cell-penetrating peptides onto these morpholinos is one option of addressing delivery, however development remains slow due to the cost...

    Kim, Younghee
    Abstract:
    This study aimed to evaluate the contingencies and reinforcements that most engage active high school (HS) students in a virtual classroom to learn and adopt healthy lifestyles. In Phase 1, 21 HS students completed focus groups about factors they perceived as engaging for them in learning about lifelong healthy habits....
