During construction of the embankment at Blue River Dam
placement difficulties were occasionally experienced with the filter
zone sands. In the extreme condition construction equipment became
mired and part of the fill had to be removed and wasted. A
laboratory investigation was conducted on materials from the above
project to...
A project is described wherein a source code browser was implemented based upon tasks performed by software engineers looking for source code modules with only UNIX utilities. These tasks were discovered by observing the actions of software engineers looking for code modules in a library, The success of the implementation...
The end of the Cold War brought about changes within international political relations that resulted in expanded interest in global civil society. Such developments, like globalization and democratization, have encouraged the growth of social and political organizations. Political scientists have found that these inter-governmental and non-governmental organizations have a significant...
Organic photovoltaics are being explored as the next generation material for semiconducting and optoelectronic devices but are limited by their stability and efficiency. One new candidate is crystallized Anthradithiophene (ADT), which is a promising photo-voltaic material due to its high quantum yield and adjustable side groups. The side derivatives TES-F,...
Silene rectiramea (Grand Canyon campion) is a rare endemic plant species found only in Grand Canyon National Park. There is limited biological and ecological information available about this plant species and the extent of its distribution is unknown. Silene rectiramea is currently not included in a National Park Service monitoring...
African American male students are a small portion of the student body at NCAA Division 1-A schools, but they make up a large portion of population of college football players. African American male college students are also one of the most at-risk student populations on campus in regards to retention....
Ocean Drifters are a low-cost and easy-to-use platform that are commonly used for studying ocean currents. With added interest in studying the ocean, emphasis has been taken to make it more accessible. A pilot course focused on introducing the topic of ocean sensing was announced. The HC 407 course will...
