Numerical Approximations Of Phase Field Models Using A General Class Of Linear Time-Integration Schemes, Zengyan Zhang
Numerical Approximations Of Phase Field Models Using A General Class Of Linear Time-Integration Schemes, Zengyan Zhang
Student Research Symposium
As a basic thermodynamic model, the essence of the phase field model is describing non-conservative field variables in the phase separation process, such as liquid-solid interface, dendritic flow, microstructure evolution in solids, etc. Due to its extensive applications in the literature, there are many approaches to develop numerical approximations for the phase field PDE models. However, most numerical schemes are designed specifically for a particular model, making their applications restricted. I will introduce a new family of linear and unconditionally energy stable schemes for phase field models and apply them to several typical examples to demonstrate the generality, accuracy, and …

Investigation Of An Incipient River Anticline Downstream Of Moab, Ut, Ray Poe
Investigation Of An Incipient River Anticline Downstream Of Moab, Ut, Ray Poe
Student Research Symposium
The landscape evolution of southeastern Utah is dominated by two factors: erosion of rocks by the Colorado River drainage system; and deformation of rocks by salt tectonics. Salt tectonic activity is ultimately due to the Pennsylvanian Paradox Formation underlying much of the red rock canyon area of southeastern Utah. The Paradox Formation is made of various ductile salts, which flow under pressure gradients. The incision of the Colorado River has unloaded pressure on the Paradox Formation, forming river anticlines in the Canyonlands of Utah; best exemplified by the Meander Anticline. This research conducts a structural analysis of Shafer Basin by …
An Analysis Of The Impact Of Gender And Racial Background On Academic Wellbeing In Middle Childhood, Madison Thomas
An Analysis Of The Impact Of Gender And Racial Background On Academic Wellbeing In Middle Childhood, Madison Thomas
Student Research Symposium
Variation in stressors, due to ethnic background or culture, can interrupt academic progression (Benneret al., 2017). Furthermore, variation in academic opportunity and skill may lead to later societal inequalities, such as gender or racial pay gaps (Soland, 2018). Therefore, it is invaluable for research to address potential imbalances in the academic setting, as a perpetuation of issues has the potential to cultivate greater disparities in the future. However, there is little data that encompasses the impact of race and gender on students’ subjective academic wellbeing. Through analyzing race/ethnicity and gender differences in student subjective wellbeing, where intervention may be applied …
How To Survive A Cliff Jump: Throw Something!, Rafsan Rabbi
How To Survive A Cliff Jump: Throw Something!, Rafsan Rabbi
Student Research Symposium
Experimental evidence suggests the limit of human tolerance to water impact from free-fall is approximately 48 m, any free-fall water impact from greater heights are likely to be just as fatal as free-fall onto a solid surface. The danger comes from the impulse force reaching a high peak in a very short time span. One way of reducing the impulse is for another object to impact the surface first. We present a canonical consecutive sphere impact study showing that a sphere creating an underwater cavity reduces the impulse impact force felt by a trailing second sphere. Our proposed non-dimensional time …

Thy Sorrow And Thy Conception: Pregnancy And Abortion In Early Christian Theology, Anastasia Davis
Thy Sorrow And Thy Conception: Pregnancy And Abortion In Early Christian Theology, Anastasia Davis
Student Research Symposium
Christianity’s earliest centuries were filled with a multitude of efforts toward unity and consistency. Through fervent debate and political maneuvering, competing branches attempted to establish personal legitimacy and a cohesive doctrine. These conflicts brought questions of personhood, mortality, and life to the forefront, alongside the related questions of gender, power, and sexuality. This paper looks to leverage primary sources in the form of medical writings, theological debates, and legal histories in order to bring clarity to the earliest thoughts on abortion and contraception in the earliest Christian communities. Presentation Time: Thursday, 9-10 a.m. Zoom link: https://usu-edu.zoom.us/j/83802262211?pwd=QU5icUo4WW03NWZwNXVPNjlXYXQvUT09

Children's Literacy Center In Ghana, Africa, Aly Barlow
Student Research Symposium
There is a shortage of education and literacy centers in Africa. The lack of facilities where people can learn to read and write is fueling many social issues including illiteracy. This low literacy rate then leads to life-long employment struggles, financial issues, marital problems, and poverty. The low education levels perpetuate poverty, and it has been shown that poverty levels are dependent and often dictated on knowing how to read and do math. The children's literacy center will encourage learning from a young age to hopefully curb the poverty cycle and also meet the educational needs of the local children …
Gender Bias In Student Evaluations Of Teaching, Audree Britte, Kiyan Irani
Gender Bias In Student Evaluations Of Teaching, Audree Britte, Kiyan Irani
Student Research Symposium
There is mixed evidence regarding the presence of gender bias in student evaluations of teaching (Foote, Harmon, & Mayo, 2003; Morgan et al., 2016). Given the importance placed on student evaluations of teaching in regards to promotion and tenure, it is essential to determine whether gender bias is present and to what extent (Laube, Massoni, Sprague, & Ferber, 2007). Many previous studies have shown there is strong evidence of implicit bias in the traits we expect to see from female and male professors, but these studies have been limited by how they identify the presence of bias (e.g. Basow, 1995; …

Combating Loneliness In Assisted Living Facilities: An Evidence-Based Practice Guide For Social Work Practitioners Working With Older Adults, Annie Alexis Romano
Evidence-Based Social Work Practice Guide Series
It has been well documented that social needs do not change with aging (Teater, Chonody, & Davis, 2021), but often, older adults are left out of the conversation when it comes to loneliness and the feelings that come with social isolation. In the same way that researchers are de-stigmatizing the mental health conversation for youth and middle-aged adults, we need to bring to light the issues that come with those who live in assisted living facilities or nursing homes and the social issues presented in that population.

Adolescent mental health is important to consider by parents and schools. Parents need to build a strengthened mentality in their children and with the school support, the results would be greater. The active participation of schools is needed in order to support kids' and adolescents' mental health and create parent awareness about mental health. Also, when parents are able to identify early signs of mental health problems, they can prevent it from becoming greater and the school can help parents learn about these early signs. In addition, parents play a fundamental role in identifying symptoms of mental health problems in …
Roles Of Nad+ In Testicular Aging And Epigenetic Sperm Modifications, Renata Hoskova
Roles Of Nad+ In Testicular Aging And Epigenetic Sperm Modifications, Renata Hoskova
Student Research Symposium
Since 1980, the average age of first-time fathers has been increasing. With increased age, sperm chromatin quality and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) levels are reduced. In order to condense around protamines, sperm DNA undergoes breaks, at which time epigenetic reprogramming occurs. In humans, about 2% of DNA stays wound to histones in spermatozoa. Histones carry post-translational modifications that control gene activity and have the potential to transmit epigenetic information to the offspring. Analysis of epigenetic sperm modifications is being conducted within niacin deficient versus niacin replete mice. The experimental plan includes the characterization of histone exchange in elongating spermatids via …

The Need For Diverse Representations Of Sámi People In A Modern World, Kylie Smith
Student Research Symposium
The 2010s saw an increase in the use of Sámi religion and culture as a resource in popular culture products. Two notable 2019 animated children’s movies rely heavily on Sámi culture, traditions, and characters to accomplish their narrative goals. The Netflix original movie Klaus, directed by Spanish filmmaker Sergio Pablos presents an origin story for Santa Clause wherein a Sámi group becomes a labor force comparable to Santa’s elves. Created in consultation with Sámi Parliament, Disney’s Frozen 2 introduces a group of Indigenous people called the Northuldra, which are intentionally modeled after the Sámi people. This presentation examines these texts, …

“How did May Swenson use poetry to help discover who she wanted to be, and how she stayed true to herself?” May Swenson’s poetry represents a lot about who she was as a person, and the different views she carried. Studying Swenson and her life, we see she explored who she was after growing up in a Mormon family and widely Mormon society. Swenson didn’t stick to the religious standards she was taught as a young girl, but they helped her explore who she was and wanted to be. She wrote poetry continuously throughout her life, and many of her …
Random Forest-Based Diffusion Information Geometry For Supervised Visualization And Data Exploration, Jake Rhodes
Random Forest-Based Diffusion Information Geometry For Supervised Visualization And Data Exploration, Jake Rhodes
Student Research Symposium
Most dimensionality reduction techniques to date are unsupervised; they do not take class labels into account (e.g., PCA, MDS, t-SNE, Isomap). Such methods require large amounts of data and are often sensitive to noise that may obfuscate important patterns in the data. Various attempts at supervised dimensionality reduction methods that take into account auxiliary annotations (e.g., class labels) have been successfully implemented with goals of increased classification accuracy or improved data visualization. In this paper, we describe a novel supervised visualization technique based on random forest proximities and a diffusion-based information geometry. We show, both qualitatively and quantitatively, the advantages …
