Following trends in higher education that emphasize quantitative analytical approaches to learn about educational outcomes, academic libraries are increasingly attempting to quantify their impacts on student learning and demonstrate their value to the university’s educational mission. By applying learning analytics techniques to library use and instructional data, libraries have especially...
Thirteen healthy adult males, ages 20-40, consuming self selected
diets, were given instructions to take one 500 mg tablet of ascorbic
acid three times a day with their meals for a period of ten weeks. The
effect of this daily supplementation on copper status was investigated.
An estimation made from...
Wave energy converter (WEC) devices are complicated systems containing hydrodynamic, mechanical, and electrical elements. WEC design efforts are primarily focused in the time-domain, using frequency-based energy analyses and numerical problem solving approaches that are staples in hydrodynamic design efforts to form the basic information set used in these time-domain development...
Wave energy converters (WECs) are a broad class of emerging technology that converts hydrokinetic energy into some other useful form, such as electricity. The last stage in this transformation, the power take-off (PTO) subsystem, is often not experimentally evaluated until half-way through the recommended development process. This delay in evaluation...
This thesis argues for a similar politics of style behind the aesthetic experimentation in the short fiction of Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) and Clarice Lispector (1920-1977). By locating the two writers within the international trajectories of modernism, I contend that both Woolf and Lispector engage modernist experiments in consciousness as a...
We use autonomous gas measurements to examine the metabolic balance (photosynthesis
minus respiration) of coastal Antarctic waters during the spring/summer growth season. Our observations
capture the development of a massive phytoplankton bloom and reveal striking variability in pCO₂ and
biological oxygen saturation (ΔO₂/Ar) resulting from large shifts in community metabolism...

My thesis examines perceptions of power in relation to white and black masculinity in the United States. The introduction invokes the work of Mireille Miller-Young, Hortense Spillers, Vincent Woodard and Hiram Pérez as a foundation to ground my discussion of agency, consumption, desire, homoeroticism and the characteristics of the Mandingo,...
