  • The Winners and Losers of Sarbanes-Oxley

    Creator:
    Bailey, Derek
    Abstract:
    As a result of numerous financial scandals at the turn of the 21st century, Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act of 2002, requiring all publicly-listed companies to comply with regulations aimed at reducing the amount of material misstatements in the financial statements, both frauds and errors. Although the costs of...

  • A remotely controlled power quality test platform for characterizing the ride-through capabilities of adjustable speed drives

    Creator:
    Matheson, Evelyn
    Abstract:
    With the increased attention on high efficiency and controllability of industrial processes, as well as reduced weight, volume and cost of consumer products, the applications of nonlinear power electronic converters such as adjustable speed drives (ASDs) are showing a rapid rise. Power Quality (PQ) is becoming an increasing concern with...

  • Potential of Genetic Algorithms for Design of Liquid Cooled Heat Sinks Fabricated Using Additive Manufacturing

    Creator:
    Dokken, Connor B.
    Abstract:
    The advancement of new manufacturing techniques such as additive manufacturing enable significantly greater freedom of design compared to conventional techniques. Of significant interest is what improvements could be made in the design of cold plates and heat sinks for electronics cooling. Greater design freedom could potentially enable new designs that...

  • Bi-Criteria Batching and Scheduling in Hybrid Flow Shops

    Creator:
    Shahvari, Omid
    Abstract:
    In this research, a bi-criteria batching and scheduling problem is investigated in hybrid flow shop environments, where unrelated-parallel machines are run simultaneously with different capacities and eligibilities in processing, in some stages. The objective is to simultaneously minimize a linear combination of the total weighted completion time and total weighted...

  • REHand: ReEngineering the human hand with differential mechanisms to improve hand function after tendon-transfer surgeries

    Creator:
    Mardula, Katherine L
    Abstract:
    Since the 1970s, tendon-transfer surgeries have been routinely performed for a variety of conditions such as stroke, paralysis, spinal atrophy, trauma, and birth defects. The surgery involves rerouting a tendon from a disabled muscle and directly suturing it to a functioning muscle in order to partially restore hand function. This...
