  • Automated feature extraction for orientation and slicing in microlamination

    Creator:
    Ariastuti, Retna
    Abstract:
    The research is about developing a computerized design system for microtechnology-based energy, and chemical systems (MECS). MECS devices are a part of microfabrication, which primarily focuses on taking advantage of the extremely high rates of heat and mass transfer available in microstructures. It typically consists of intricate arrays of components...

  • Transcriptional regulation of the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene

    Creator:
    Guo, Chunxiao
    Abstract:
    Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...

  • Climate Changers: An Interdisciplinary Exploration of Reducing Personal Carbon Emissions

    Creator:
    Johnson, Carly A.
    Abstract:
    In an era of human-induced climate change, there is increasing interest in encouraging people to reduce their carbon dioxide (carbon) emissions by adopting low-carbon behaviors, or behaviors that reduce a person’s use of fossil fuels. I designed the Campus Carbon Challenge as a research and outreach project to gain a...

  • Meander scars : reflections on healing a river

    Creator:
    Metzger, Abby P.
    Abstract:
    As Europeans settled the Willamette Valley in the 1800s, they began to simplify Oregon's largest river contained wholly within state boarders—the Willamette. The river lost miles of channels from dikes, dams, and development. Some channels vanished under concrete. Others became meander scars, or shallow, dry depression in the land where...

  • Eaffective Ecopoetics as a Practice for Feeling a World in Crisis

    Creator:
    Platt, Benjamin D.
    Abstract:
    Discussions of ecopoetics often seek to investigate how poetics as a form can be rendered more ecological, often in contrast to nature poetry. These conversations tend to concentrate on this generic contrast and the formal qualities of an ecological poetics. Ecopoetics as a field emerged largely as a response to...

  • Active Learning and the ALEKS Placement Test in College Algebra : An Observational Study

    Creator:
    Dean, Raven
    Abstract:
    In 2012, a university in the north western United States began offering a redesigned college algebra class that had a greater emphasis on active learning. Specifically, two out of four class periods were completely devoted to students working together in small groups on carefully designed worksheets. Two years later, the...

  • Contributions to substrate noise due to supply coupling and pin parasitics

    Creator:
    Adluri, Sirisha
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents the contributions to substrate noise due to supply coupling and the effect of pin parasitics on the substrate noise generated by digital circuits. Various sources of substrate noise and their effect on analog circuits sharing the same substrate are discussed. A simulation approach to isolate the various...

  • Evaluation of the stray load losses for a three-phase induction motor

    Creator:
    Nagornyy, Aleksandr S.
    Abstract:
    The evaluation of the stray-load losses in induction motors is an important part of the efficiency estimation process. However, stray-load losses have several components which are difficult to isolate and calculate. Consequently, they are more readily determined by test. IEEE Standard 112-1996 recommends the testing of electrical induction motors at...
