Evolutionary Influences On Oceanic Islands Parasites: Phylogeography, Genetic Structure, And The “Island Rule” Of Common Ground Doves (Columbina Passerina) And Their Lice, Paige Jordan Brewer

Student Theses and Dissertations

Organisms on oceanic island archipelagos often exhibit strong genetic signatures and adaptations. Here, we focus on Common Ground Doves (Columbina passerina) and their parasitic lice, Physconelloides body lice and Columbicola wing lice, across the Caribbean islands to examine phylogeography, population genetics, and the “Island rule”. We used genome-wide sequences and found C. passerina doves and their lice exhibited unique dispersal patterns and phylogenetic relationships; however, similar population structure. We also found distinct patterns of genetic diversity between Physconelloides and Columbicola, likely caused by variations in their dispersal abilities. Additionally, we measured C. passerina specimens and their lice to compare island …

Model-Based Design Of Compressed Lithium-Metal Pouch Cell Battery Modules For Evtol Applications, Scott J. Stirling

Master's Theses

Batteries with higher specific energy and power are essential for extending the range and performance of electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft (eVTOLs). Anode-free lithium-metal pouch cells offer strong potential at the cell-level but require high compressive pressures to enhance cycle life and discharge performance. These pressures necessitate heavier structural components, reducing packaging efficiency at the module level.

To evaluate this tradeoff, a full-factorial enumeration model was developed to explore viable module designs within a constrained packaging volume. The model scales subsystem masses, enforces design rules and material limits, and accounts for large (~20%) cell thickness changes during cycling.
