Masked And Afraid, Michelle Spencer

Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop Blog

One of the perks of being an adult is that your brain and bladder work together, so you make it to the loo before you pee your pants. That is the case for most adults; I gave birth to four children, and my bladder took the brunt of the pregnancy. If I sneeze, laugh, cough, run, jump or sometimes bend down, there is definitely a leakage issue.


Your Pen Name Could Be Leading An Exciting Life Of Its Own!, Stephanie D. Lewis Aug 2020

Your Pen Name Could Be Leading An Exciting Life Of Its Own!, Stephanie D. Lewis

Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop Blog

Some of you might think “Little Miss Menopause” IS my actual pen name. And to those people I’d calmly ask, “What are you, nuts?!?” That’s simply a regretful silly title I chose for myself many years ago when I first began blogging and thought I should brand myself with something cutesy. Little did I know I’d box myself into hot flash humor. Forever. I guess it’s a good thing I didn’t start blogging in puberty or I might’ve been “Little Miss Menstruation.”

Ohiolink Librarians And Google Scholar Over Time: A Longitudinal Analysis Of Attitudes And Uses, David Luftig, Joan Plungis Aug 2020

Ohiolink Librarians And Google Scholar Over Time: A Longitudinal Analysis Of Attitudes And Uses, David Luftig, Joan Plungis

Roesch Library Faculty Publications

This study provides a longitudinal analysis of the opinions and uses of Google Scholar by members of the OhioLINK consortium of libraries. Using survey data collected in 2007, 2014, and 2019 via the OhioLINK Listserv, this study explores how librarians use and promote Google Scholar within their library instruction sessions and how Google Scholar and its Library Links feature are promoted on library websites. This information is then analyzed across the three date ranges. The results of this research suggested that there were significant changes in the use and opinions of Google Scholar between 2007 and 2014 with more normalization …

I Feel Bad About My Neck Hair (With Apologies To Nora Ephron), Kathy Steenson

Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop Blog

One weird side effect of this extended period of time sheltering in place is that many of us are spending more time looking in our mirrors. Maybe not those of you with small children at home — who rarely even get to go to the bathroom alone — but the rest of us are doing some really odd things to fill our days. A lot of us are trying things for the first time — baking bread, cleaning baseboards, flossing every day, cutting and coloring our own hair. Many of us are looking in our bathroom mirrors more than we …

Artificial Neural Network Discovery Of A Switchable Metasurface Reflector, J. R. Thompson, J. A. Burrow, P. J. Shah, J. Slagle, E. S. Harper, A. Van Rynbach, I. Agha, M. S. Mills Aug 2020

Artificial Neural Network Discovery Of A Switchable Metasurface Reflector, J. R. Thompson, J. A. Burrow, P. J. Shah, J. Slagle, E. S. Harper, A. Van Rynbach, I. Agha, M. S. Mills

Electro-Optics and Photonics Faculty Publications

Optical materials engineered to dynamically and selectively manipulate electromag- netic waves are essential to the future of modern optical systems. In this paper, we simulate various metasurface configurations consisting of periodic 1D bars or 2D pillars made of the ternary phase change material Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST). Dynamic switching behavior in reflectance is exploited due to a drastic refractive index change between the crystalline and amorphous states of GST. Selectivity in the reflection and transmission spectra is manipulated by tailoring the geometrical parameters of the metasurface. Due to the immense number of possible metasurface configurations, we train deep neural networks capable of …

Since I am always in the dark, mainly because I’m lightheaded, the recent storm didn’t throw shade at me. But it left my house in the dark, too. For six days. So I got a pen and a flashlight and kept a diary because, unfortunately, I was powerless to do anything else.


A Machine Learning Framework For Drop-In Volume Swell Characteristics Of Sustainable Aviation Fuel, Shane Kosir, Joshua Heyne, John Graham Aug 2020

A Machine Learning Framework For Drop-In Volume Swell Characteristics Of Sustainable Aviation Fuel, Shane Kosir, Joshua Heyne, John Graham

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Publications

A machine learning framework has been developed to predict volume swell for 10 non-metallic materials submerged in neat compounds. The non-metallic materials included nitrile rubber, extracted nitrile rubber, fluorosilicone, low temp fluorocarbon, lightweight polysulfide, polythioether, epoxy (0.2 mm), epoxy (0.04 mm), nylon, and Kapton. Volume swell, a material compatibility concern, serves as a significant impediment for the minimization of the greenhouse gas emissions of aviation. Sustainable aviation fuels, the only near and mid-term solution to mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, are limited to low blend limits with conventional fuel due to material compatibility issues (i.e. O-ring swell). A neural network was …

Seeking Shelter, Wendy Gilbert Gronbeck Aug 2020

Seeking Shelter, Wendy Gilbert Gronbeck

Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop Blog

I once met a nun who ran an orphanage in Saigon during the Vietnam War. She told me that near the end of the war, they routinely and without hesitation lied about the children waiting for adoption. They’d say anything to get the kids adopted and away from the bombs and the guns. You know who’s better at padding resumes to promote adoption? Those people who write for animal shelters.
