Killing the Father and the Father Lives On: The Literary Influence of Richard Wright on James Baldwin

Creator:: Stoneberg, Michael R.
Abstract:: This thesis discusses the African American authors Richard Wright and James Baldwin, and their views regarding how literature should be written. These views are examined as laid out in a selection of each author‟s essays, as well as through an analysis of the characters Bigger Thomas and Rufus Scott in...

Cancer Cell Detection with Mask R-CNN

Creator:: Wong, Ryan
Abstract:: Instance segmentation, the classification and localization of objects in an image, is a problem in cellular biophysics due to the physiological relevance of cell morphology. Particularly, cancer cells migrate in tissue space by changing their body shape similarly to how humans extend their limbs to swim through water. Monitoring such...

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...

A multi-faceted method for validating emotional intelligence

Creator:: Reyna, Nicholas R.
Abstract:: The Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT) purports to assess emotional intelligence, which includes the ability to successfully identify and manage emotions. To test the validity of this claim, 21 students took the MSCIET along with a several other performance measures and personality scales, and their scores were correlated. The MSCEIT...

Thermodynamic analysis of a magnesium carbonate thermochemistry and compressed air energy storage system

Creator:: Rebarchik, Eric R.
Abstract:: In this work, a hybrid thermochemistry compressed air energy storage (CAES) system is investigated. Following a review on chemical reactions investigated for use in thermochemical energy storage (TCES) systems, from these chemistries, the conversion of magnesium carbonate, MgCO3, to magnesium oxide, MgO, and carbon dioxide, CO2, was further analyzed for...

Optimization of Pulsed Laser Deposited Piezoelectric Thin Films for Microelectromechanical Systems

Creator:: Kearney, Dylan R.
Abstract:: Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is well known to exhibit some of the strongest piezoelectric responses, explaining why it is at the heart of piezoelectric-based microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) research. The use of pulsed laser deposition (PLD) to synthesize PZT offers many advantages over alternative deposition techniques, mainly regarding its ability to...

Attachment as a Significant Predictor of Problem-Solving Persistence in Pet and Working Dogs

Creator:: Nissinen, Prema J.
Abstract:: It has been demonstrated that dogs form attachment bonds to their owners and that these attachments can be classified and described in ways that are analogous to attachments found between human infants and their mothers. While a secure attachment to a parent has been shown to improve problem-solving abilities in...

Turn-Taking in Face-to-Face Conversations: A Proposed Theory of Chair Swiveling

Creator:: Smith, Lyshuand R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to propose swiveling behavior as a potential speech transitioning device and to discuss the methodology behind qualitative and quantitative analysis of swivels in relation to subjects’ partners. Due to the impacts of gaze and body orientation direction on speech transitioning, it is deduced that,...

Effects of age and military service on memory and cognitive flexibility in a virtual Morris water maze task

Creator:: Mollusky, Adina J.
Abstract:: This study applied a virtual version of the Morris water maze (vMWM) task to an examination of age-related differences between younger and older participants, and the impact of prior military service in older men on spatial memory and cognitive flexibility. Participants performed the Logical Memory task that included immediate and...

Parallel Implementation of Concentrated Solar Power and Energy Storage into the Brayton Cycle

Creator:: Lopez, Blake R.
Abstract:: Concentrated solar power (CSP) along with thermal energy storage (TES) has the potential to provide reliable energy from an intermittent source. TES is used to store energy while the sun is shining, allowing for the stored energy to be used when the sun is no longer shining. There are many...
