Normalized Linearly-Combined Chaotic System: Design, Analysis, Implementation And Application, Md Sakib Hasan, Anurag Dhungel, Partha Sarathi Paul, Maisha Sadia, Md Razuan Hossain Oct 2023

Normalized Linearly-Combined Chaotic System: Design, Analysis, Implementation And Application, Md Sakib Hasan, Anurag Dhungel, Partha Sarathi Paul, Maisha Sadia, Md Razuan Hossain

Faculty and Student Publications

This work presents a general framework for developing a multi-parameter 1-D chaotic system for uniform and robust chaotic operation across the parameter space. This is important for diverse practical applications where parameter disturbance may cause degradation or even complete disappearance of chaotic properties. The wide uninterrupted chaotic range and improved chaotic properties are demonstrated with the aid of stability analysis, bifurcation diagram, Lyapunov exponent (LE), Kolmogorov entropy, Shannon entropy, and correlation coefficient. We also demonstrate the proposed system’s amenability to cascading for further performance improvement. We introduce an efficient Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)-based implementation and validate its chaotic properties using …

Saturation Numbers Of Double Stars, Lei Zhong Oct 2023

Saturation Numbers Of Double Stars, Lei Zhong

Combinatorics Seminar

A graph G is H-saturated if G contains no copy of the graph H, but for any missing edge e of G, there exists a copy of H in G + e. The saturation number of the graph H, denoted by sat(n,H), is the minimal number of edges among all H-saturated graphs with n vertices. A star on a + 1 vertices and a edges is a graph by joining one vertex (called center) to all other a vertices. In this talk, we focus on the saturation number sat(n,St+1,t+1), where St+1,t+1 is called a balanced double star obtained by adding …


Is Math Real? How Simple Questions Lead Us To Mathematics' Deepest Truths, Eugenia Cheng Oct 2023

Is Math Real? How Simple Questions Lead Us To Mathematics' Deepest Truths, Eugenia Cheng

Dalrymple Lecture Series

Where does math come from: from rules in a textbook? From logic and deduction? Not quite. In this talk Eugenia Cheng will argue that math comes from human curiosity - most importantly, from asking questions. Many people are discouraged from asking these questions in school, thinking they’re too simple to be taken seriously, or being told that their questions are stupid. But often, these simple-sounding questions lead to wondrous mathematical revelations. Dr Cheng will take us on a journey of discovery starting with questions like "Why does 2x3 = 3x2?" and "What's the point of maths?", leading us into research-level …


The Independent Bondage Number Of Planar Graphs With Degree Conditions And Girth Conditions, Kanchana Gamladdalage Oct 2023

The Independent Bondage Number Of Planar Graphs With Degree Conditions And Girth Conditions, Kanchana Gamladdalage

Combinatorics Seminar

For a finite graph G, a vertex set D of G is said to be a dominating set of G, if every vertex v ∈ V(G) − D has a neighbor in D. Further, if D is an independent set of vertices (D is an independent set if there is no edge between any two vertices of D) as well, we say D is an independent dominating set. Define γi(G) to be the minimum cardinality among all independent dominating sets of G. The bondage number of G denoted by b(G), is defined as min{|B| : B ⊂ E(G) such that …

Diffusion Of Ionic Liquid-Modified Polymer Nanoparticles Through Nasal Mucus, Mary Vanlandingham May 2023

Diffusion Of Ionic Liquid-Modified Polymer Nanoparticles Through Nasal Mucus, Mary Vanlandingham

Honors Theses

Mucosal barriers are a natural defense system for preventing the entry of foreign objects into the body; however, they pose as obstacles for effective drug delivery. Coated polymer nanoparticles have been proven to possess improved rates of diffusion across mucus compared to their uncoated, or bare, counterparts. When choline-based ionic liquids (ILs) are introduced to an aqueous system, their dissociation leads to an increase in solution conductivity which ultimately reduces the viscosity of mucus without significantly affecting its structure. Additionally, ILs are highly tunable, so they work well in a range of pHs and conductivities, making ILs an ideal choice …


A Synthetic Approach To The Optimization Of Silicon-Rosindolizine Swir Fluorophores, Timothy Lewis May 2023

A Synthetic Approach To The Optimization Of Silicon-Rosindolizine Swir Fluorophores, Timothy Lewis

Honors Theses

Fluorophores emitting within the near-infrared (700 – 1000 nm) or shortwave-infrared (1000 – 1700 nm) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum are of particular interest for their potential to supplement or even outright replace commonly used biological imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scanning. Various characteristics make these molecules particularly appealing to researchers, such as their ease of synthetic tunability, generally low toxicity, and high solubility in biological media in comparison to other NIR- and SWIR-emissive fluorophores. Different molecular skeletons have been examined for use as the core of these imaging agents, such as squaraine, cyanine, and …


Structural Integrity And Stability Of Dna In Ionic Liquid And Near-Infrared Indolizine Squaraine Dye, Ember Yeji Suh May 2023

Structural Integrity And Stability Of Dna In Ionic Liquid And Near-Infrared Indolizine Squaraine Dye, Ember Yeji Suh

Honors Theses

Luminol, the most common presumptive test for blood at a crime scene, has multiple issues, such as false positive results with chemical agents, no luminescence due to “active oxygen” cleaning agents on bloodstains, and inability to penetrate textile materials. A combination of indolizine squaraine dye and ionic liquid (IL), or Dye Enhanced Textile Emission for Crime Tracking (DETECT), have shown potential to address these issues. The purpose of this study was to assess the binding mechanism of CG (1:1) and SO3SQ dye to HSA and how the mechanism can explain the W214 fluorescence quenching effect and to determine …


Gender Disparities Present Within The Legal Profession, Olivia M. Sanders May 2023

Gender Disparities Present Within The Legal Profession, Olivia M. Sanders

Honors Theses

This thesis investigates the problem of gender disparities present within the legal profession in order to discover their causes and ways to mitigate them. Currently, there are a variety of gender disparities in the legal profession. Women are paid less than their male counterparts, are exposed to sexual harassment and violence more often, and receive fewer leadership opportunities, to name just a few of these disparities. While these disparities are documented in larger firms, little data exists on the extent of such issues in smaller firms, especially in the southeastern United States. Accordingly, I interviewed eight individuals with their juris …


Aging An Ancient Maya Population From Actuncan, Belize Using Dental X-Rays, Kaitlyn Nicole Cash May 2023

Aging An Ancient Maya Population From Actuncan, Belize Using Dental X-Rays, Kaitlyn Nicole Cash

Honors Theses

My goal is to determine an accurate age at death estimation of an ancient Maya population from the archaeological site of Actuncan, Belize. This was done by measuring the lengths of the coronal pulp cavities in the individuals’ teeth. I used X-Ray images to measure the coronal pulp cavities of the teeth and estimated age using multiple regression formulae for premolars, molars, and incisors to make age estimations. The formulae came from two studies, Ikeda et al. (1985) and Drusini (2008), that form the basis of my research. Ikeda et al. (1985) was the first to use this aging method, …


Microhydration Of Hexachlorophosphate Anion, Anna Robertson May 2023

Microhydration Of Hexachlorophosphate Anion, Anna Robertson

Honors Theses

The microhydration of the hexafluorophosphate anion has been the focus of many previous experimental and computational studies, due to its use in room temperature ionic liquids.This preliminary study examines the analogous hexachlorophosphate anion and its interactions with one to two water molecules (PCl6−(H2O)n, n = 1-2), identifying the structural and energetic differences in the microhydration of PCl6− versus PF6−. A systematic investigation of the possible orientations of one to two water molecules around PCl6− was done. Full geometry optimizations were performed using the ab initio method …
