Automated System For Photonic Integrated Circuit Measurement, Daniel F. Donnelly

Honors Theses

In recent years, with the advent of mature miniature semiconductor fabrication processes, the photonic integrated circuit (PIC) has emerged as a potential solution for the increased power consumption and bandwidth of conventional electronic computing technologies. As low-energy, optical devices, PICs serve to bring the solutions and advantages of optical technologies down to the form-factor of typical electronic microchips, including applications in telecommunications, high-speed computing, sensing, and quantum computing. However, despite the existing technologies for semiconductor fabrication, PICs, unlike their electronic counterparts, are exceedingly difficult to package and test, with each part of the process individually taking up roughly 30% of …

Investigating Tandem Propeller Performance In Multirotor Aircraft, Michael R. Foster

Honors Theses

Strategic placement of the rotors in a non-planar configuration can improve power efficiency in multirotor aircraft. To validate this concept, a custom-built multirotor was developed to conduct flight tests based on a prior wind tunnel study at the University of Dayton. The original study, conducted in the University of Dayton Low Speed Wind Tunnel (UD-LSWT), demonstrated that a negatively staggered rotor configuration with a vertical offset of 60% of the propeller diameter (0.6 d_z) maximized power savings of individual rotors tested in tandem configuration. Flight test data confirmed improved power efficiency in negatively staggered configurations, achieving up to …

Disconnected Connections, Becket Nash

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

This long and arduous process began during the second week of classes when Dr. Rahman had us identify and describe an obstacle to the common good. I first thought about writing on wars and conflict, but later switched to something a little closer to home: relationships, namely how cell phones can impede our ability to form and maintain them. We were then tasked with writing a research proposal, an annotated bibliography, and a summary of peer-reviewed research. Through all of this, I looked over dozens of documents and articles learning all I could about cell phone addiction. I first created …

Beauty And The Beast (1991) And La Belle Et La Bête (1946): Contrasting Views Of Womanhood Across Varying Cultural Climates, Maddie R. Dietrichs

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

In my english honors course, we are placed into different fairy tale "groups. My group was assigned Beauty and the Beast as the fairy tale we would be offering social commentary on for this essay assignment. I knew I wanted to primarily discuss gender and women's roles in my essay since Beauty and the Beast offers a lot of interesting avenues on what a woman's role is, particularly in the romantic and familial spheres. I chose two different film retellings of Beauty and the Beast for this paper. The first being La Belle et La Bete, a 1946 black and …

Axillary Web Syndrome (Aws) In Absence Of Breast Cancer History Or Surgery: A Case Report, David B. Locke, Linda Koehler

Oncology Rehabilitation in Practice

Background: Axillary web syndrome (AWS) is a complication of breast cancer surgery with axillary lymph node removal. Cords are found within 2 weeks post-surgery in the axillary area of the operated side, and many extend down the arm or into the lateral chest wall. The purpose of this report is to present a unique case of idiopathic AWS, and to increase awareness of non-cancer related AWS in the medical community.

Case Description: A 39-year-old healthy female presented to physiotherapy with a 2-week history of a palpable tight cord in her left axilla without history of cancer or surgery. She sought …
