  • A Fabrication Process and Analysis of ZnO-ZnS-Sb₂S3₃ Thin Film Solar Cells

    Creator:
    Catherall, David
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research is to provide a simple fabrication method for zinc oxide and antimony sulfide based thin film solar cells. Both a ZnO nanorod electron conducting structure and a stibnite absorber show promise in a solar cell. Initial attempts at using only ZnO and Sb2S3, however, resulted...

  • Writing With Light : An Exploration of Cinematography and Visual Storytelling

    Creator:
    Hodaie, Austin A.
    Abstract:
    Mastering the art and craft of cinematography is a lifelong endeavor requiring an unfaltering amount of passion and commitment to developing creative and technical skills of visual storytelling. Like authors of literature, cinematographers are writers. However, instead of words a cinematographer speaks a visual language using light and camerawork. In...

  • Creating Test Baking Methods Specifically for Whole-Wheat Sourdough Breads, In the Context of Local Grain Economies

    Creator:
    Jansen, Victoria E.
    Abstract:
    Recently local grains have become an area of economic growth. Local grain products, including whole-wheat and sourdough products, are increasingly in demand for their health benefits, unique flavor profiles, and association with local food movements. These local grain economies are beginning to boom, but they lack the technical aid that...

  • Ultra sonic SCUBA diver tracking device hardware

    Creator:
    Lindsley, Christopher J.
    Abstract:
    Currently, there is no accurate, low-cost method to track divers. Watching bubbles can give you an approximate xy-location, and expensive underwater radios utilizing ultrasonic waves can work if the diver knows where they are. Traditional radio waves do not work well in water due to the conductive nature of water....

  • Music Generation and Evaluation Using R

    Creator:
    Lanz, Andrea L.
    Abstract:
    The main goal of this project is to implement an algorithmic music composition procedure and present all procedures and results in a reproducible fashion by creating a web application produced by R. To approach the implementation of the algorithmic composition of music, we start by exploring various models, but ultimately...

  • The Mathematics of Critical Shifts in Ecological Networks with Alternative Stable State Theory, A Potential Framework for Early Warning Indicators

    Creator:
    Kupperman, Michael D.
    Abstract:
    A long running problem in mathematical biology is the prediction of extinction events, a specialized case of the larger global stability problem found in differential equations and dynamical systems theory. A central technical question is how to introduce the randomness observed in real ecological systems not accounted for in deterministic...

  • Wireless Charging System Using Inductive Coupling

    Creator:
    Waters, Allen T.
    Abstract:
    A wireless power transfer system using inductive coupling was designed and implemented as part of a three-member project team. The system uses coupled magnetic fields at a frequency of 606kHz to transfer electromagnetic energy from a charging base to the batteries of portable devices. It succeeded in transmitting power to...

    Creator:
    Berliner, Garrett
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents innovative pedagogical approaches to teach fundamental Computer Science (CS) concepts, such as abstraction, representation, algorithms, and computation utilizing manipulatives, which are physical objects that students interact with to teach or reinforce a concept. Teaching and learning with manipulatives has a long history in science and mathematics education,...
