  • Assessing the Effects of Gas Price and Tax Incentives on Promotion of Energy Efficient Vehicles: A Time Series Analysis

    Creator:
    Ding, Lin
    Abstract:
    Global warming is an increasingly serious problem around the world. To mitigate the influence of global warming on people’s lives, the Obama Administration put an emphasis on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to mitigate global warming. The adoption of energy efficient vehicles, including hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid vehicles...

  • Exchange rate dynamics and the trade balance : the case of Sri Lanka

    Creator:
    Weerasooriya, Senal A.
    Abstract:
    Relationship between the exchange rate and the trade balance is a key component for a developing nation. Although, in theoretical sense, depreciation of currency would result in an improvement in the trade balance, sluggish response of trade flows to changes in currency has prompted researches to look in to the...

  • Implementation Techniques for Variational Data Structures

    Creator:
    Meng, Meng
    Abstract:
    Many applications require not only representing variability in software and data, butalso computing with it. To do so efficiently requires variational data structures thatmake variability explicit in the underlying data and the operations used to manipulate it.Variational data structures have been developed ad hoc for many applications, but thereis little...

  • Estimation of the setup accuracy of a surface image-guided stereotactic positioning system

    Creator:
    Meng, Lu Zheng
    Abstract:
    Purpose: Stereotactic radiation therapy and stereotactic radiosurgery deliver radiation precisely to tumors, using special equipment to position and demobilize patients. The VisionRT system, with its component AlignRT, is a non-invasive stereotactic positioning and tracking system that uses cameras to capture infra-red images of patients, and process these images, to obtain...

  • Low-voltage data converters

    Creator:
    Meng, Qingdong
    Abstract:
    With the growing demand for portable/consumer electronics, such as digital audio/video (AV), the downscaling of device dimensions, which enables the integration of an increasing number of transistors in a single chip, is mandatory. This trend also continuously pushes the power supply voltage down to reduce the power consumption and improve...

  • WAVE~Ripples for Change Obesity 2-y Intervention in High School Soccer Players : Program Impact on Diet and Physical Activity, Process Evaluation, Best Practices, and Youth Engagement

    Creator:
    Meng, Yu
    Abstract:
    Childhood obesity prevalence is significantly higher among adolescent 12-19 years old than younger age groups. Youth athletes are overlooked by childhood obesity prevention programs. WAVE~Ripples for Change (WAVE) program is a 2-y obesity prevention intervention with high school (HS) soccer players (14-19y) using a mixed virtual- and physical-world learning environment...

  • Exploration of the feasibility of developing a winter hardy 'Marion' blackberry through genetic engineering

    Creator:
    Meng, Rengong
    Abstract:
    Experiments focusing on plant growth regulators’ concentrations and combination, mineral salt formulations and TDZ pretreatment formations were conducted to optimize in vitro shoot regeneration from leaf and petiole explants of 'Marion' blackberry. Optimum shoot formation was obtained when stock plants were incubated in TDZ pretreatment medium for three weeks before...

  • Wideband discrete-time delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters with shifted loop delays

    Creator:
    Meng, Xin
    Abstract:
    Low-distortion architecture is widely used in wideband discrete-time switched-capacitor delta-sigma ADC design. However, it suffers from the power-hungry active adder and critical timing for quantization and dynamic element matching (DEM). To solve this problem, this dissertation presents a delta-sigma modulator architecture with shifted loop delays. In this project, shifted loop...

  • Determining ploidy level and nuclear DNA content in Rubus by flow cytometry

    Creator:
    Meng, Rengong
    Abstract:
    Nuclear DNA flow cytometry was used to differentiate ploidy level and determine nuclear DNA content in Rubus. Nuclei suspensions were prepared from leaf discs of young leaves following published protocols with modifications that included: increasing the stain concentration, adding the stain after the RN ase treatment instead of adding it...
