New acoustic emission applications in civil engineering

Creator:: Schumacher, Thomas
Abstract:: Non-destructive testing methods and applications have become of increasing interest due to the worldwide aging and deteriorating infrastructure network. In the field of Civil Engineering, bridges and bridge components as well as non-structural elements such as roadway pavements for example, are affected. In particular, the Acoustic Emission (AE) technique offers...

Level structure of ¹⁵²Gd populated in ¹⁵²Tb β decay

Creator:: Stapels, Christopher John
Abstract:: As part of a research program to study the transitional region of N=88 isotones, ¹⁵²Tb was produced by the reaction ¹⁵¹Eu(α,3n)¹⁵²Tb in the 88" cyclotron located at LBNL. Gamma-ray spectroscopy of the radiation emitted from excited ¹⁵²Gd following the β⁺ decay of ¹⁵²Tb has been performed using an array of...

Modulation of respiratory burst activity of trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) phagocytic cells

Creator:: Galvan, Irja S.
Abstract:: In a comparison of the mammalian and fish immune systems many similarities and differences are found. While most of the differences occur in the acquired or lymphoid arm of immunity, the nonlymphoid immune systems of fish and mammals share many similarities. For instance, both animal groups use phagocytic neutrophils and...

Influences of nitrogen on carbon dynamics in forest soil and density fractions

Creator:: Swanston, Christopher W.
Abstract:: Application of N fertilizer is a common forest management practice in the Pacific Northwest, yet the long-term influence of fertilization on forest soil properties is not well known. Although elevated N often increases mineralization of C and N from labile organic matter, negative effects have been documented in recalcitrant organic...

Control of p53 tumor suppressor and peroxiredoxin activity through shifts incellular redox balance

Creator:: Stoner, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Aerobic organisms have evolved many sensory mechanisms that allow response to oxidants in the environment. One area of interest is the relationship between the activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53 and the redox state of thioredoxin. Human p53 activity is severely compromised in budding yeast lacking thioredoxin reductase. Evidence...

Enhancement and modeling of cryogenic solid-state hydrogen storage systems with a novel microchannel thermal management device

Creator:: Loeb, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Compact storage systems demonstrating increased hydrogen storage capacity are the key to advancing the growth of the hydrogen economy throughout the world and reducing the global dependence on fossil fuels for transportation. The use of highly porous adsorbent materials for reversible hydrogen storage is a promising pathway towards achieving storage...

Understanding Welfare As We Know It: A Comprehensive and Updated Mixed-Methods Analysis on the Relationship between Public Opinion and Welfare Policies

Creator:: Molina, Rafael Felipe S.
Abstract:: After the 1996 national welfare reform known as the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) was enacted with more stringent eligibility and work requirements for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program, a plethora of analyses have followed assessing the...

The physiology of plagiotropic growth of rooted cuttings of Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco]

Creator:: Starbuck, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Experiments were conducted to determine if the plagiotropic growth habit of rooted cuttings of Douglas-fir might result from a system favoring the accumulation of indoleacetic acid in the adaxial side of the shoot in response to vertical placement. Actively growing excised branch terminals were subjected to gravitational disorientation to determine...

Topological Design Considering Uncertainty and Hyperelasticity

Creator:: Pham, Trung
Abstract:: Topology optimization (TO) is a mathematical method to find the optimal size, shape and connectivity of a domain under specified conditions, and has had many applications in engineering design. However, challenges remain in realizing TO as an effective design tool for many design situations. Uncertainty is ubiquitous in nature and...
