  • Microstructural Characterization of Porosity in U-Mo Low Enriched Uranium Plate Fuel

    Creator:
    Westman, Bjorn E.
    Abstract:
    New low enriched uranium (LEU) fuels are being developed for replacement of high enriched uranium (HEU) fuels in high power research reactors. U-Mo LEU plate fuels have been identified as a candidate for replacement of current HEU fuels. However, U-Mo fuels tend to exhibit accelerated swelling typically at fission densities...

  • Management Strategies for Small, Structurally Diverse & Income-Generating Forests

    Creator:
    Geisel, Julian
    Abstract:
    Parcellization of the rural landscape threatens the provision of social, ecological and economic benefits to society due to loss of economies of scale. A continued provision requires new approaches to forest management for multiple, interconnected goals. I used interviews, archival records and field measurements to learn how select, experienced owners...

  • Atomic Layer Deposition of Two Dimensional MoS2 on 150 mm Substrates

    Creator:
    Valdivia, Arturo Herrera
    Abstract:
    Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have recently come under intense investigation as building blocks for van der Waals heterostructure electronics. One of the most promising TMDs is MoS₂, which transitions from an indirect bandgap (1.3 eV) in its bulk state to a direct band gap (1.8 eV) in its single...

  • Ionic Cross-linked Cellulose Nanocrystals Composites of Poly(vinyl acetate)

    Creator:
    Chan, Han Ling
    Abstract:
    Understanding the effect on the materials mechanical properties from the perspective of interfacial interaction between the filler and the polymer matrix has become an important criterion in polymer nanocomposites field. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are renewable materials that can be extracted from natural sources, such as wood, cotton, and tunicates. In...

  • Fabrication of a flexible glucose sensing catheter for human implantation

    Creator:
    Matthews, David J.
    Abstract:
    Flexible electronics processing techniques were applied to integrate a glucose sensor with a hormone-delivery catheter in order to create a cheap and minimally invasive method for patients with type 1 diabetes to continually monitor and control their blood sugar levels. Ultimately, this work intends to move toward the development of...
