  • Applied Computing Techniques for Holographic Optical Tweezers

    Creator:
    Gruss, Daniel
    Abstract:
    Optical tweezers are capable of trapping micron sized particles through the transfer of the momentum of light. These capabilities are expanded through the use of computer controlled holograms for beam shaping. This hologram creation is facilitated through the use of a spatial light modulator, which is a liquid crystal device...

  • Designing and Building a Bluetooth Controlled Blimp with Autonomous Capabilities

    Creator:
    Shepherd, Thomas
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the design and implementation of a Bluetooth controlled blimp with autonomous capabilities through Dead Reckoning. Reasonable research was conducted on current autonomous systems, wireless communication techniques, and suitable microprocessors that could handle the required processing. Building a remotecontrolled blimp requires a light understanding of mechanics to build...

  • Effects of Channel and Ratchet Geometry on Passive Pumping in an Open-ended channel Configuration

    Creator:
    Daniels, Mitchell A.
    Abstract:
    Modern electronics have created increased demand for innovative cooling solutions. Typical forced convective cooling systems consist of pumps that circulate cooling fluid. However pumps can be unwieldy for many applications. This research is a continuation of work done at Oregon State University and Auburn University on the passive pumping of...

  • Characterization of a Novel Metalloprotease Secreted by the Type II Secretion System in Vibrio cholerae

    Creator:
    Park, Bo R.
    Abstract:
    Vibrio cholerae, a Gram-negative bacterium, is the etiological agent of cholera. V. cholerae shuttles between the human host and the aquatic reservoir, where it associates with marine organisms such as copepods and vertebrate fish. The bacteria use the Type II Secretion System (T2SS) to release proteins that facilitate V. cholerae...
