  • Simulated and Experimental Characteristics of Analysis Techniques for ZrCuAlNi/AlOx/Al Metal-Insulator-Metal Tunnel Diodes

    Creator:
    Tan, Cheng
    Abstract:
    This project examines the results of current-voltage conduction mechanism analysis techniques simulated under assumed conduction conditions. Thermionic emission and Fowler-Nordheim tunneling conditions are simulated and analyzed. The resulting plots show how devices behave under different condition mechanisms. The effects of different conduction mechanisms on the results of various analysis techniques...

  • Location of the neutral axis in wood beams

    Creator:
    Holm, Sarah C.
    Abstract:
    It is commonly accepted that for the analysis of wood beams, the neutral axis coincides with the centroid of the beam. Although this assumption is used in analysis, wood is not an isotropic material, as it has different elastic properties in the tangential, radial and longitudinal directions, nor is it...

  • Implementation of Distributed Localized Communications

    Creator:
    Snyder, Thomas
    Abstract:
    Artificial collectives are useful for accomplishing tasks that require teamwork from multiple simple robots. Multiple robot and collective testbeds have been developed, yet none stay committed to leverage the local interactions, group size, and imperfect information assumptions that strengthen biological collectives. A review of the collective and multiple robot literature,...

  • Beyond free will: an empirical case for a capacity model of human agency

    Creator:
    Helzer, Erik G.
    Abstract:
    Although the question of free will has persisted throughout the history of philosophy as an important metaphysical consideration, rarely does the inquiry include empirical evidence from other disciplines concerned with human behavior. In this interdisciplinary paper, I combine the wisdom of psychologists, metaphysicians, and philosophers of science to comment on...
