  • Analysis of SNPs in Mycoplasma cynos strains from canine hosts within the Pacific Coast animal shelter network

    Creator:
    Prymolenna, Anastasiya V.
    Abstract:
    Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can be used as markers to infer population genetic structure. For Mycoplasma cynos, a pathogen associated with infectious respiratory disease among canines and other animals, SNPs may help to elucidate ecological and evolutionary relationships among the strains that reside in the upper respiratory tract of canines...

  • Adjacent structure response sensitivity to seismic events using the direct differentiation method

    Creator:
    White, William S.
    Abstract:
    The response of adjacent structural systems to earthquake motions is investigated using the finite element framework OpenSees. Results of sensitivity analyses demonstrate that structural response quantities can increase in either or both of the adjacent structures for specific configurations. The structural models used include steel moment-resisting frames and rigid shear...

  • The Auteur Perspective of David Fincher

    Creator:
    Kitamura, Garrett
    Abstract:
    Director David Fincher’s films contain many distinct elements that set his work apart, but one of the most instantly recognizable elements is his visual style – specifically, his camerawork. The level of control and purposefulness that Fincher exhibits in his films qualify Fincher as the auteur, or “author,” of his...

  • Technological progress, disacculturation, and our public schools

    Creator:
    Morita, Sally J.
    Abstract:
    The problems facing our nation's public schools today cannot be divorced from our enthusiasm for technology and the positive relationship we believe it shares with our perception of progress. Based on the second law of thermodynamics, the law of entropy, author Jeremy Rifkin argues that the development of increasingly "efficient"...

  • Structure and Dynamics of the Canine (Canis familiaris) Nasal Microbiome

    Creator:
    Knorr, Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    The diverse community of bacteria living within and on host organisms, known as the microbiome, has an important role in maintaining host health. Dysbiosis, known as a change in the healthy community of the microbiome, has been associated with a number of diseases across host organisms and body sites including...

  • A Text-based Simulation Framework for the Automated Simulation and Analysis of Manufacturing Assembly Systems

    Creator:
    Fields, Benjamin G.
    Abstract:
    The rapid advancement of manufacturing has led to the creation of a myriad of technologies that facilitate the analysis and simulation of manufacturing processes. These technologies have become a pivotal component in maintaining and improving processes in today’s complex manufacturing environments. Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is one such technology that...

  • Consistent Histories Formulation of the Double-Slit Experiment

    Creator:
    Bauml, Benjamin N.
    Abstract:
    The standard interpretation of quantum mechanics (known as the Copenhagen interpretation) divides the world into quantum phenomena and classical observers that perform measurements upon the phenomena. This provides a quite functional framework for calculating probabilities of measurement outcomes, but it lacks the generality necessary for such things as retrodiction, and...

  • Experimental Study of the Impact of Physical and Chemical Properties on Smoldering Combustion in Natural Fuels

    Creator:
    Smucker, Benjamin
    Abstract:
    Smoldering combustion in wildland fires is difficult to extinguish, can transition to flaming combustion, and produces a significant amount of pollutants. It is necessary to understand parameters controlling smoldering in order to help predict the smoldering behavior and potentially mitigate these hazards. The wide variety of natural fuels that occur...

  • Much Ado About Weak Measurement

    Creator:
    Bauml, Benjamin Noë
    Abstract:
    I had to write again. My research lay in science, and it was a science of three parts. The first part made a careful, introductory chapter, begged for by things that were lacking. It summarizes the von Neumann measurement model, derived from the Stern-Gerlach experiment, and it explains how weak...

  • Opening a Developing Economy in the 21st Century: A Look at the Rural Salvadoran Perspective

    Creator:
    Juarez, Benjamin
    Abstract:
    In recent decades there has been a trend for countries to begin establishing bilateral trade relations with one another, namely, free trade agreements. The result has been open economies that are economically tied to one another. In El Salvador, two policies are highlighted that tie it strongly to the United...
