Surface Modifications for Greater Cycle Life and Energy Density in Lithium-Ion Batteries

Creator:: Holstun, Tucker M.
Abstract:: Significant challenges remain before lithium-ion batteries can support the decarbonization of the transportation and power sectors required to avert catastrophic climate change. The energy density of these batteries must be increased, while decreasing the price, and maintaining or increasing their lifespan. To improve the practical energy density of existing materials,...

Optical Characterization of Transparent Conductive Thin Films

Creator:: Tucker, Derek A.
Abstract:: The optical characterization of transparent conductive thin films is demonstrated. The basics of transparency and conductivity, as they relate to transparent conductor research, are explained. A functional model of the reflectance and transmittance of a sample film, including interference fringes, is derived from the Fresnel electric field amplitude coefficients. The...

Inhibition of α-Amylase and α-Glucosidase by Bioflavonoids

Creator:: Griffith, Anneke M. (Tucker)
Abstract:: Various flavonoid-rich plant extracts have shown efficacy in the treatment of diabetes. Although it is often assumed that dietary flavonoids exert biological antioxidant effects, it is possible that the observed effects work in carbohydrate metabolism. In this study we evaluated the effect of catechins and catechin containing extracts on α-amylase...

Behooved to Remove: The Trump Administration's Effect on Immigration Judge Decision-Making

Creator:: Cochenour, Tucker J.
Abstract:: It has long been recognized by the legal community that when an immigrant seeks relief from deportation proceedings through the United States’ immigration courts, the proceedings they undertake are best seen as a game of chance depending on the Immigration Judge who is randomly assigned to their case. This thesis...

Evaluating the Impact of Beta-Lactam Allergy Labels on Patient Outcomes in Bone Marrow Transplant Patients

Creator:: Haxby, Benjamin M.
Abstract:: Background: Patients with a beta-lactam allergy noted in their medical record (i.e., allergy label) receive different antibiotics, even when an allergy is not truly present. Our objective was to evaluate allergy labels and their influence on patient outcomes among bone marrow transplant (BMT) recipients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort...

Significance of High-Pressure-Torsion Processing on an Aluminum-Lithium Aerospace Alloy

Creator:: Keller, Marina
Abstract:: Aluminum alloys are popular in aerospace and automotive industries because of their relatively high strength-to-weight ratio. The study of enhancing aluminum’s mechanical properties through grain refinement is especially important. One such technique is High-Pressure Torsion processing (HPT), which leads to significant grain size refinement and enhances mechanical properties like ductility...

Application of Spectroscopic Techniques for In-Situ Oxygen Monitoring in Liquid Sodium

Creator:: Walton, Seth L.
Abstract:: In liquid sodium environments like those proposed for next-generation sodium fast reactors (SFRs), the presence of impurities in the sodium, particularly chemical species containing oxygen, can lead to increased corrosion on sodium-wetted components. It is important to monitor oxygen concentration in the sodium melt, but temperatures of 500 ℃ and...

Evidence for the Potential Hybridization of Ammophila breviligulata and Ammophila arenaria in the Pacific Northwest.

Creator:: Borland, Joshua J.
Abstract:: Coastal dunes are dynamic and unique ecosystems. On the Pacific coast, dunes are generally dominated by the beach grasses, Ammophila breviligulata and Ammophila arenaria, two invasive species introduced in the early 1900’s to stabilize sand and create foredunes that serve to protect people who live behind them. Recently, a novel...

Studying the ancient parasitic cnidarian, Sphaerospora elegans, leads to better understanding of oligochaete diversity and myxozoan discovery

Creator:: Lehrburger, David J.
Abstract:: Myxozoans are microscopic parasites, related to corals and jellyfish. Most Myxozoa probably have two-host lifecycles that require a vertebrate (typically fish) and invertebrate (annelid or bryozoan). However no life cycle is known from the Sphaerospora lineage. I hypothesized that the life cycle of Sphaerospora elegans, a myxozoan parasite of three-spined...

Nutrient limitation of dune grasses in a U.S. Pacific Northwest coastal dune system

Creator:: Barker, McKenzie J.
Abstract:: Coastal dunes provide many functions and services including coastal protection, recreation, and habitat. Vegetation contributes to dune growth and stability, thereby increasing the coastal protection value of dunes. On the U.S. Pacific Northwest coast, the dominant dune grasses are the introduced non-native American beachgrass (Ammophila breviligulata) and the native American...
