Three-Dimensional Tsunami Modeling Using GPU-SPHysics
(2010-07-14)
With the devastating effects of the 2004 Sumatra Tsunami, tsunami research is at an
all time high. Tsunami forecasting and modeling has become exceedingly important in
the anticipation of major disasters. Tsunami inundation ...
Tool Support For Axiomatic Programming
(2010-07-14)
Many problems arising from spectacular error messages involving C++ templates are related
to the fact that assumptions made by the C++ standard algorithms are stated in informal
comments, not in code that is checked by the ...
Investigating the Interactions between Cytokines Interleukin-1 and Interleukin-6
(2010-07-14)
The purpose of this research project is to study the signaling pathways of the
inflammatory cytokines - Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6) - and investigate
any "cross-talk" between the two. IL-6 plays a central ...
Utilizing Standing Ultrasonic Waves to Harvest Microalgae from a Fluid Suspension
(2010-07-14)
As a result of dwindling supplies of fossil fuels and increasing environmental concerns
significant research is being conducted in the United States and throughout the world in
search of a new, abundant source of transportation ...
Digital Design and Fabrication Techniques Using a 3-Axis CNC Mill
(2010-07-14)
The objective of my research involves an investigation of the relationship between design and production through a case study fabrication project which utilize digital design software and manufacturing technologies, to ...
Shock Tube Design
(2010-07-14)
Shock accelerated flows exhibit some of the most violent and complex mechanisms in nature by which two separate fluids can be mixed. The Richtmyer-Meshkov instability (RMI) is generated when a perturbed interface between ...
Transcriptional FIdelity of RNA Polymerase II
(2010-07-14)
This research aims to elucidate possible genes that affect transcriptional fidelity of RNA polymerase II (pol II) and quantify these affects in vivo. The main focus of this project is the small nonessential subunit of RNA ...
Electrode Placement and the Fabrication of Sub-100-nm Nanopore Arrays
(2010-07-14)
The anodization of aluminum films grown on silicon substrates under controlled
conditions is used to fabricate porous alumina arrays. Such porous arrays are used as
sensors or lithography masks for fabrication of sub-100-nm ...
The Effects of Metaphylaxis and Milk Replacer Additives on Health and Growth of Neonatal Holstein Bull Calves
(2010-07-14)
A study evaluating the effects of metaphylaxis antibiotics and milk replacer additives on
the health and development of Holstein bull calves (n=52; mean body weight=42.28 kg
+ 3 kg; starting age <3 days) was conducted. The ...
Clustering of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies in the Boötes Field
(2010-07-14)
We study the nature and clustering of infrared (IR) galaxies at z~1.5-3 in a 9 deg2 region
from the Spitzer Deep, Wide-Field Survey (SDWFS) and the MIPS (Multiband Imaging
Photometer for SIRTF) AGN (Active Galactic Nuclei) ...
