The Disconnection Between Sexuality And Reproduction. A Major Challenge For Public Health, A Salinas Mar 2009

The Disconnection Between Sexuality And Reproduction. A Major Challenge For Public Health, A Salinas

English

Objectives: This chapter aims to reflect on the need to address the issue of sexuality as a process of social construction, more than the predominant biological vision. It also highlights the importance of integrating this position not only in the speeches of sexual and reproductive health but also in programs providing care for people in health institutions.

Paramagnetic Resonance Studies Of Bistrispyrazolylborate Cobalt(Ii) And Related Derivatives, William K. Myers Jan 2009

Paramagnetic Resonance Studies Of Bistrispyrazolylborate Cobalt(Ii) And Related Derivatives, William K. Myers

Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs

Herein, a systematic frozen solution electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) study of high-spin Co(II) complexes is reported to demonstrate the efficacy of methyl substitutions as a means of separating dipolar and contact coupling, and further, to increase the utility of high-spin Co(II) as a spectroscopic probe for the ubiquitous, but spectroscopically-silent Zn(II) metalloenzymes. High-spin (hs) Co(II) has been subject of paramagnetic resonance studies for over 50 years and has been used as a spectroscopic probe for Zn metalloenzymes for over 35 years. However, as will be seen, the inherent complexity of the electronic properties of the cobaltous ion remains to be …


Design Fabrication And Calibration Of Mems Actuators For In-Situ Materials Testing, Khawar Abbas Jan 2009

Design Fabrication And Calibration Of Mems Actuators For In-Situ Materials Testing, Khawar Abbas

Mechanical Engineering ETDs

Many MEMS devices utilize thin metallic films as mechanical structures. The elastic and plastic properties of these thin films (thickness < 1μm) are significantly different from those of the bulk material. At these scales the volume fraction of material defects such as: grain boundaries, dislocations and interstitials become quite significant and become a chief contributor the physical and mechanical material properties of the thin films. Aluminum (Al), Copper (Cu), Nickel (Ni) and Gold (Au) are popular thin film materials used in MEMS/NEMS. Various studies have been conducted in recent years to study the mechanical properties of freestanding thin films in situ in TEM to study their failure mechanisms. Some of these studies utilize MEMS devices as actuators. These actuators are often co-fabricated with the specimen being tested therefore limiting the type of specimen that could be tested. Also these MEMS actuators are almost never traceably calibrated and their response is calculated. This thesis describes the design and fabrication process of a MEMS actuator for materials testing in-situ in TEM. The actuator is fabricated independent of the specimen. A setup was designed to calibrate these devices with a method that can be traced back to NIST standards. It has been shown that the calibrated response of these MEMS actuators is different from its calculated response and the use of un-calibrated devices for materials testing can lead to misleading results.


Synthesis And Characterization Of Cerium-Doped Lanthanum Halide Colloidal Nanocrystals, Krishnaprasad Sankar Jan 2009

Synthesis And Characterization Of Cerium-Doped Lanthanum Halide Colloidal Nanocrystals, Krishnaprasad Sankar

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

Cerium-doped bulk lanthanum halide compounds are attractive in the field of high-energy radiation detection due to their interesting properties that include efficient radiation absorption, highly luminescent activator (cerium) emission through atomic transitions, host lattice protecting activators to prevent luminescence quenching, and fast decay-time radiative transitions between cerium levels. Cerium-doped bulk lanthanum bromide is reported to have a light yield of 60,000 photons/MeV, 2.5% full-width-to-half-maximum energy resolution (variation in emission light yield to absorbed gamma energy) for 662 keV gamma rays, 25 ns short decay time, and a density of 5.3 g/cm3 with 22 mm attenuation length for 511 keV gamma …


How Do Teachers Understand And Act On Policy Directives To Close The Gender Achievement Gap In Writing Present In State Test Scores?, Michael Stanley Jan 2009

How Do Teachers Understand And Act On Policy Directives To Close The Gender Achievement Gap In Writing Present In State Test Scores?, Michael Stanley

Language, Literacy, and Sociocultural Studies ETDs

This qualitative study examined how a group of 9, predominately white, middle-school writing teachers thought about struggling student writers and made sense of national and district policy mandates to close the racial and gender achievement gaps present in state test scores. Data from focus group discussions and one-on-one interviews revealed findings about the teachers interactions with school leadership, how they understood and acted upon achievement gaps in writing, and their collaboration as a team of educators. Confusion and frustration typified the teachers' interactions with school leadership as a number of top-down mandates through Professional Learning Teams and disappointing interactions regarding …
