The effect of rubberized flooring on Asian elephant behavior in captivity

Creator:: Meller, Camie L.
Abstract:: An experiment was designed to determine the effects of a poured rubber flooring substrate on the behavior of captive Asian elephants. Additionally, room utilization was evaluated in a series of seven rooms used for indoor housing. These seven rooms were divided into two observation areas, the Front observation area which...

An experimental investigation of radiative and total heat transfer around a horizontal tube immersed in a high temperature gas-solid fluidized bed

Creator:: Alavizadeh, Seyed Nasser
Abstract:: This study is primarily concerned with the measurement of the local radiative component of total heat transfer around a horizontal tube immersed in a large particle fluidized bed at elevated temperatures.Total heat transfer was also measured in order to assess the relative radiation contribution.The radiation measurement probe employs a silicon...

Structure and Actuation of Cephalopod-Inspired Soft Robots

Creator:: Olson, Gina M.
Abstract:: Cephalopod-inspired soft robot arms have been studied as a new type of manipulator. These arms have been proposed for reach and grab tasks, underwater locomotion via swimming and walking, and robotic surgery. However, the capabilities of existing soft arms are limited to simple motions and light loads. Arm design has...

Development of a next-generation NIL library in Arabidopsis thaliana for dissecting complex traits

Creator:: Fletcher, Richard S., Mullen, Jack L., Yoder, Seth, Bauerle, William L., Reuning, Gretchen, Sen, Saunak, Meyer, Eli, Juenger, Thomas E., and McKay, John K.
Abstract:: Background: The identification of the loci and specific alleles underlying variation in quantitative traits is an important goal for evolutionary biologists and breeders. Despite major advancements in genomics technology, moving from QTL to causal alleles remains a major challenge in genetics research. Near-isogenic lines are the ideal raw material for...

Analysis of the effect of the potassium ion on fowl sperm motility

Creator:: Gamble, Kari
Abstract:: Fowl sperm are believed to be immotile prior to ejaculation. The concentration of potassium found in deferent duct fluid is approximately 8 times higher than that found in blood plasma, which is 5 mM in Gallus domesticus. The effect of ionic potassium on fowl sperm motion was tested in a...

Development and Characterization of Multiple Nanopore Systems for Molecular Sensing

Creator:: Schmeckpeper, Tyler T.
Abstract:: Artificial lipid bilayer technologies are effective models for studying cell membrane properties. Droplet bilayers rely on microfluidics and provide advantages over other bilayer methods due to their compatibility with automated development systems that increase yield while minimizing cost. This paper describes the implementation of bilayer technologies using membrane protein channels...

Creator:: Chun, Sang-Eun, Evanko, Brian, Wang, Xingfeng, Vonlanthen, David, Ji, Xiulei, Stucky, Galen D., and Boettcher, Shannon W.
Abstract:: Electrochemical double-layer capacitors exhibit high power and long cycle life but have low specific energy compared with batteries, limiting applications. Redox-enhanced capacitors increase specific energy by using redox-active electrolytes that are oxidized at the positive electrode and reduced at the negative electrode during charging. Here we report characteristics of several...

Modeling of Non-Spherical Particle Dynamics in a Non-Uniform Flow

Creator:: Alshehri, Ahmad S.
Abstract:: Turbulent flow with suspended, non-spherical particles can be found in nature and several industrial applications. Although turbulence with dispersed spherical particles has been studied extensively, modeling the dynamics of non-spherical particles in a turbulent flow has not been studied extensively. Motion of spherical particles in complex flows is typically captured...

Blood-based gene expression as a biodosimetry model for neuroblastoma patients treated with ¹³¹I-mIBG

Creator:: Edmondson, David A.
Abstract:: Internal dosimetry is challenging and relies on estimates using MIRD or ICRP biokinetic models. To address this, we looked at gene expression analysis in whole blood from radiotherapy patients. Patients with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma who received ¹³¹I-mIBG at UCSF were used to correlate internal ionizing radiation (IR) dose with...

New chemistry for electrochemical energy storage applications

Creator:: Wang, Xingfeng
Abstract:: Electrochemical capacitors and batteries are two major electrochemical energy storage technologies, which have been investigated extensively to meet the rapidly-growing demand for higher energy, higher power, lower cost and enhanced safety in the past few decades. With the charge storage mechanism of electrostatic charge adsorption desorption via electrical double layers,...
