Reduction of Perchlorate and Nitrate by Aluminum Activated by pH Change and Electrochemically Induced Pitting Corrosion.
(2011-08-08)
Highly oxidized species like perchlorate and nitrate that are released into the environment by anthropogenic activities are a source of concern as they have been known to contaminate groundwater. These species are extremely ...
Phenotypic Characterization of Self- Assembling Protein Fragments Using Negative Dominance
(2011-08-08)
Protein oligomerization provides a way for cells to modulate function in vivo. In this
study, self-assembling protein fragments from ParC, DnaX, and proteins of unknown
function were used to generate phenotypes in a ...
The Eighth Wife's Daughter
(2011-08-08)
This thesis explores, through fictional storytelling, the cultural duality of individuals inhabiting Singapore prior to World War II. The primary locale in many of these stories-an actual residence known as Eu Villa-interconnects ...
Barrier Layers of the Atlantic Warm Pool: Formation Mechanism and Influence on Weather and Climate
(2011-08-08)
The aim of this research is to study the formation mechanism of Barrier Layers
(BL) in the western tropical Atlantic and their influence on the tropical Atlantic
climate at both short and long timescales. Many Coupled ...
A Philosophical, Qualitative, and Quantitative Examination of Transformational Leadership in Secondary Agricultural Education
(2011-08-08)
Leadership has been a foundational component of secondary agricultural education and teachers are recognized as the program leader; furthermore, agriculture teachers are expected to develop leadership in their students. ...
Integrated Reservoir Characterization: Offshore Louisiana, Grand Isle Blocks 32 & 33
(2011-08-08)
This thesis integrated geology, geophysics, and petroleum engineering data to build a detailed reservoir characterization models for three gas pay sands in the Grand Isle 33 & 43 fields, offshore Louisiana. The reservoirs ...
Parametric Excitation of a DWSC
(2011-08-08)
Parametric excitation of the DWSC (Deep Water Stable Craneship) is studied in this thesis. It occurs for a system without any external forcing, when one of the coefficients in the equation of motion (EOM) modeling the ...
Rheology of Model Nanoparticle Suspensions in Epoxy
(2013-12-11)
The rheology and linear viscoelasticity of several model nanoparticle suspensions in epoxy have been systematically investigated. Three detailed studies were carried using α-zirconium phosphate (ZrP) nanoplatelets as model ...
Hp-spectral Methods for Structural Mechanics and Fluid Dynamics Problems
(2011-08-08)
We consider the usage of higher order spectral element methods for the solution of
problems in structures and fluid mechanics areas. In structures applications we study
different beam theories, with mixed and displacement ...
Characterization of Individual Nanoparticles and Applications of Nanoparticles in Mass Spectrometry
(2011-08-08)
The chemical characterization of individual nanoparticles (NPs) </= 100 nm in diameter is one of the current frontiers in analytical chemistry. We present here, a methodology for the characterization of individual NPs by ...
