Playing by the Rules: A Formal Specification of BoGL’s Loops and Type System

Creator:: Grejuc, Alex
Abstract:: BoGL is a programming language created for the purpose of computer science education that is specific to the domain of board games. Although there is a language grammar and an existing implementation that is currently used by students, a complete and formal language standard does not yet exist. In the...

Visual Search Patterns and Behavior of Left Turning Bicyclists at Roadway Intersections: A Field Study

Creator:: Burns, Patrick O.
Abstract:: This research effort considers bicyclist’s left-turn behavior at roadway intersections with varying levels of traffic control; specifically, seeking to address the question where do bicyclists look to acquire information. A demographic comparison was made to determine if factors such as gender or experience influence the nature of how a bicyclist...

The possibility of international agreements concerning genetically modified organisms in the European Union

Creator:: Fairbrother, Jennifer R.
Abstract:: As genetically modified products come under greater production, tensions surrounding the potential benefits and harms of the technology have appeared in divergent policy between the European Union (EU) and certain member states. The purpose of this thesis is to consider whether some type of international law, also called an environmental...

X-ray Emissions in Measurements of the Neutron Capture Cross Sections for the Production of ¹⁹⁷Hg and ¹⁹⁷Pt and Scoping the Science Parameter Space of Future X-ray Astrophysics Calorimeter Missions

Creator:: Keck, Mason L.
Abstract:: A spectral fitting routine was developed to analyze X-ray emissions in neutron capture decay processes that produce ¹⁹⁷Hg and ¹⁹⁷Pt. Through correcting for X-ray emissions, the 77.3 keV γ gamma ray intensities were analyzed. The thermal cross sections for the production of ¹⁹⁷Hg and ¹⁹⁷Pt were found to be 2088...

Lean Implementations in the University Classroom and Curriculum Design

Creator:: Diep, Dustin S.
Abstract:: The Lean process improvement philosophy has been proposed as a method for improving components of Higher Education (HE), including student learning outcomes; however, current lean applications to HE have focused on administrative operations or general institutional interventions. Comparatively little work has been performed applying lean to teaching. This work fills...

Hacking RFID Tags to Produce Economical Soil Moisture Sensors

Creator:: Stoddard, Brett S.
Abstract:: Currently available soil moisture sensors have intrinsic limitations that limit their adoption by industry. Depending on the technology, these limitations may include high costs, battery requirements, precice manual installation, high cost, and/or constrictive legislation that regulates their use. A passive soil moisture sensing system based around RFID technology would allay...

Studying the ancient parasitic cnidarian, Sphaerospora elegans, leads to better understanding of oligochaete diversity and myxozoan discovery

Creator:: Lehrburger, David J.
Abstract:: Myxozoans are microscopic parasites, related to corals and jellyfish. Most Myxozoa probably have two-host lifecycles that require a vertebrate (typically fish) and invertebrate (annelid or bryozoan). However no life cycle is known from the Sphaerospora lineage. I hypothesized that the life cycle of Sphaerospora elegans, a myxozoan parasite of three-spined...

The Effects of Modularity on Cascading Failures in Complex Engineering Systems

Creator:: Parker, Elizabeth M.
Abstract:: To design engineering systems that have improved reliability, it is important to understand what kind of system faults they will be susceptible to. Mitigation strategies are important to ensuring the performance of these engineering systems. Understanding how the modularity of complex engineering systems affects the risk of devastating failures such...

Molecular Analysis of Tomato Seed Germination and Tomato Production in Almería, Spain

Creator:: Nguyen, Theresa T.
Abstract:: Tomato is considered to be one of the most important vegetables for its value as a source of nutrients and antioxidants, and as a model crop for biological research, including seed biology. In this thesis, tissue-specific gene expression and its regulation in tomato seeds were analyzed to understand the mechanisms...

A Proposed Treatment System for the Remediation of Landfill Leachate Using Algae

Creator:: Myers, Shanna Grace
Abstract:: Landfill leachate is a complex wastewater that contains high levels of ammonium (often over 250 ppm) and trace heavy metals (usually under 0.2 ppm). Microalgae have been shown to inexpensively and effectively treat wastewaters containing high loads of organics and nutrients, as well as adsorb metal ions. This thesis focuses...
