210Polonium and 210lead radionucidles in the Delaware and Chesapeake estuarine and coastal regions

Marsan, David (University of Delaware, 2013)

One of the primary objectives of this thesis is to present an integrated study of the 210Pb and 210Po radioactive tracers, and assess their use as tracers for particle and trace element export from different estuarine ...
3D permeability characterization of fibrous media

Okonkwo, Kenneth (University of Delaware, 2010)

In Liquid Composite Molding (LCM) processes, a liquid resin is forced to flow through dry fibrous preform, usually fabrics, to impregnate it and create the composite part in net or near-net shape. The principal advantage ...
A 3D photonic sensor integrated tissue model for strain sensing

Geiger, Sarah J. (University of Delaware, 2019)

The study of wound healing and wound healing therapies is motivated by the need to prevent the formation of thick scar tissue in pathologically healing wounds and tissues that rely on their elasticity and modulus to perform ...
3D reconstruction from coded plenoptic sampling

Zhou, Mingyuan (University of Delaware, 2019)

The plenoptic function describes a scene in terms of light rays, it is a 7-dimensional function with spectral, directional, spatial, and temporal variation. Traditional plenoptic sampling is acquired either by employing a ...
95 GHz silicon germanium low noise amplifier as front-end receiver for sparse aperture millimeter wave imaging

Wright, Andrew Alexander (University of Delaware, 2015)

Demand for the ability to navigate in degraded visual environments (DVE) such as dust, smoke, and fog, has lead the development of millimeter wave (mm-wave) real-time imaging systems. Millimeter wavelength radiation has ...
The abdominal fat contribution to adiposity in chickens divergently selected for fatness or growth: Cross-model elucidation and validation of gene expression

Resnyk, Christopher (University of Delaware, 2013)

The domestic chicken (Gallus domesticus) is an important global source of high-quality dietary protein and a widely used biological model. Decades of intensive genetic selection have established the remarkable growth rate ...
Above bandgap thermo-optic coefficient measurements for direct bandgap materials

Akl, Ramsey (University of Delaware, 2005)

Accurate values of the optical functions of gallium arsenide in the very near infrared region are particularly important for many technological applications. Many different techniques have been used to measure the thermo-optic ...
Abundance and size of the sea scallop population in the Mid-Atlantic Bight

Walker, Justin (University of Delaware, 2013)

The stock of the Mid-Atlantic Bight sea scallop fishery is assessed every year through the use of various dredging and imaging techniques. The sustainability of the fishery depends on the proper setting of the yearly catch ...
Abundance of the Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus in and adjacent to the Delaware Bay: evidence of invasive crash and return of native species

Schab, Corey (University of Delaware, 2013)

The Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus has been introduced to multiple rocky habitats outside its native range and is considered an invasive species on the East Coast. The Delaware Bay region represents one of these ...
Abundance, diversity, and activity of ammonia-oxidizing prokaryotes in the coastal arctic ocean in summer and winter

Christman, Glenn (University of Delaware, 2009)

Ammonia oxidation, the first step in nitrification, is performed by certain Betaand Gammaproteobacteria and mesophilic Crenarchaea to generate metabolic energy. Ammonia monooxygenase (amoA) genes from both Bacteria and ...
Abutted IRLED infrared scene projector design and their characterization

Marks, Josh (University of Delaware, 2019)

Hardware in the Loop (HITL) test and evaluation of advanced infrared aware systems requires the ability to stimulate infrared sensors under test with synthetic IR imagery via real-time IR scene projection. An IRSP must be ...
Acceptance and use of assistive technology: perspectives of high school and college students with high-incidence disabilities

Poudel, Bishwa Bandhu (University of Delaware, 2014)

Assistive technology (AT) is linked with better academic progress and improved post-school outcomes for students with disabilities. Despite the emphasis on the use of AT evidenced by AT effectiveness literature, requirements ...
An account and analysis of implementing professional learning communities in a high school

Rutter, Gayle H. (University of Delaware, 2014)

This paper gives an account and an analysis of a three year implementation process of Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) in a high school. It is an account of an organizational change and my role as a school leader ...
Accountability in decision making processes for vertical evacuation adoption

Velotti, Lucia (University of Delaware, 2016)

This study is about accountability relationships in decision making processes and intends to advance research of accountability in unfamiliar (non routine) contexts. Accountability is defined as the individual experience ...
Acculturation, diet and psychological health of Asian international students at the University of Delaware

Jiang, Heng (University of Delaware, 2015)

Background: Accumulating evidence showed that immigrants change their diet and experience various psychological problems in acculturation process. International students in United States are increasing rapidly and more ...
Accumulation of sediment and radionuclides in tidal marshes of the Murderkill River Estuary, Delaware

Stuart, Dack (University of Delaware, 2010)

This thesis examines patterns and rates of sediment accumulation and tidal marsh accretion in the Murderkill River estuary, Delaware, with special emphasis placed on changes in accumulation rates and sediment physical ...
Accuracy and convergence of the Asymptotic Single Risk Factor formula in a large credit portfolio

Houser, Madelyn R. (University of Delaware, 2016)

According to international banking standards, all financial institutions must classify the risks associated with the credit portfolios they hold. Mathematical approximations of default distributions are among the most ...
Achilles tendinopathy: the role of tendon structure in symptom and functional recovery

Corrigan, Patrick (University of Delaware, 2019)

Achilles tendinopathy is a debilitating overuse injury that is characterized by pain during loading activities, swelling, and impaired functional performance.1,2 The incidence rate in the adult population is 2.35 per 1000, ...
Acoustic characterization of ultrasound contrast microbubbles and echogenic liposomes: applications to imaging and drug-delivery

Paul, Shirshendu (University of Delaware, 2013)

Micron- to nanometer - sized ultrasound agents, like encapsulated microbubbles and echogenic liposomes, are being actively developed for possible clinical implementations in diagnostic imaging and ultrasound mediated ...
The acoustic guitar in American culture, 1880-1980
