An Investigation Of Bacterial Transformation Techniques, Kimberly M. Moldovan

Honors Capstones

This thesis contain information regarding two possible, means of causing B. megaterium to take into , its, own genome # exogenous DNA. The whole goal of the transformation process, be it via electroporation or protoplast transformation, is to get the cell to not; only accept the foreign DNA, but to express the proteins the exogenous genes code for. The electroporation process consists of subjecting the bacterial cells to various strengths, of electric shock in order to cause pore formation in the celL-wall and subsequent entrance of the exogenous _DNA of interest. The disruption of the cell wall must not be …

Current Trends In Breast Feeding Promotion In Businesses, Linda Eugene

Honors Capstones

Mothers who breast feed their children face a difficult decision when the time comes to return to work. Unfortunately, many women cease breast feeding and turn to bottle feeding as an alternative because their employer is unable or unwilling to compromise with them to allow breast feeding to continue. The attitude of businesses, which is predominantly negative against breast feeding in the workplace, is unfortunate due to the many positive effects breast feeding provides to mother and child. The purpose of this study is to find out exactly what businesses are or are not doing for their female employees regarding …

The Role Of Scope And Scale Economies In Recent Large Bank Mergers, Daniel Eichelberger

Honors Capstones

The recent mega-merger activity in the u.s. banking industry raises many issues. Most important is the question of whether these mergers result in more profitable banks. A review of the literature on cost savings due to economies of scope and scale suggests that only those savings from the diversification of risk are present. The savings due to this diversification are substantial, but we also need to look at other areas of cost savings. Theories such as the information hypothesis, the market-power hypothesis, the inefficient-management hypothesis, and the too big to fail theory lead us to believe that the merging of …

The Abc's Of The Real Business Cycle, Timothy Matthew Hanson

Honors Capstones

The real business cycle approach to business cycle theory is viable and worthy of extended research. However, it does not resolve the dilemma facing business cycle theorists in coming up with one true explanation of the cycle. Throughout my research paper, I have clearly defined its shortcomings in terms of the non-recognition of money and a refusal to incorporate aggregate demand into the model. As a new theory, my purpose was to gain an enlightened view of what many feel is a revolutionary new way of business cycle thinking. I started with an explanation of what the theory holds as …

The Death Of Standard Costing, Kristin L. Wagner

Honors Capstones

Standard costing systems are no longer adequate or effective costing systems for U.S. companies employing statistical process control, total quality control, and just-in-time inventory systems. The four purposes for which standard costing systems are used have been identified by Charles T. Horngren as follows: 1. Financial statement preparation . 2. Cost management 3. Price-making and price policy 4. Budgetary planning and control The purpose of this thesis is to demonstrate the inadequacies of standard costing systems for use in the above purposes. Although several alternatives to standard costing systems are proposed, it is beyond the scope of this paper to …

Crisis Management In Tourist Destinations, Sevil F. Sonmez, Sheila J. Backman

Visions in Leisure and Business

Whether natural or caused by people, disasters have been and continue to be a part of life that communities must deal with. Tourism destinations are especially vulnerable to disaster occurrences due to their economic dependence on visitors and the need to maintain a positive image of attractiveness and safety for continued success. The past decade has witnessed numerous natural disasters in tourist destinations around the world; therefore, community leaders, local governments, and major industries need to be prepared for the worst.

The 1989 Hurricane Hugo experience in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina was managed by a local non-profit organization comprised of …

Imagining Imagination: A Phenomenological Study Of Children's Drawings Of Imagination, Robert M. Callahan

Educational Studies Dissertations

A phenomenological study of imagination employing "archetypal hermeneutics." The theoretical background for the research comes from the disciplines of Archetypal Psychology and Ontological Design. The research focuses on 296 Kindergarten to fifth grade public school children's drawings of imagination within an educational setting and aims at understanding imagination and its educational value. The research demonstrates that images of imagination are purposeful and intelligible when viewed with imagination, and it provides distinctions regarding imagination's nature. Images seen imaginally were regarded as teachers which deepen learning, the artistic process, and living in the world. Conclusions challenge developmental theories of learning based on …

Administering Maturity: The Emergence Of Youth Service As A Rite Of Passage To Adult Citizenship, Timothy Dolan

School K-12

Over the course of the 1980s, a literature describing a new lost generation in America has caught the popular imagination, fueled to no small extent by the anxiety of aging baby-boomers over their offspring's fate. One manifestation of particular interest at the policy level has been a growing sentiment by opinion leaders in favor of establishing youth service as both a pragmatic remedy for meeting social needs, and as a rite of passage to bona-fide citizenship status.

Effect Of Temperature And Humidity On Evaporative Water Loss In Anna's Hummingbird (Calypte Anna), Donald R. Powers

Faculty Publications - Department of Biological & Molecular Science

Evaporative water loss (EWL), oxygen concumption (V0 ), and body temperature (Tb) of Anna's 2 Hummingbirds (Calypte anna; ca. 4.5 g) were measured at combinations of ambient temperature (T J and water vapor density (Qva) ranging from 20 to 37 °C and 2 to 27 g · m-3 , respectively. The EWL decreased linearly with increasing eva at all temperatures. The slopes ofleast squares regression lines relating EWL to Qva at different temperatures were not significantly different and averaged -0.50mg H20·m-3 ·g-2 ·h-1 (range: -0.39 to -0.61). Increased Qva restricted EWL in C. anna more than has been reported for …

Thermal Mathematical Modeling Of A Multicell Common Pressure Vessel Nickel-Hydrogen Battery, Junbom Kim, T. V. Nguyen, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

A two-dimensional and time-dependent thermal model of a multicell common pressure vessel (CPV) nickel-hydrogen battery was developed. A finite element solver called PDE/Protran was used to solve this model. The model was used to investigate the effects of various design parameters on the temperature profile within the cell. The results were used to help find a design that will yield an acceptable temperature gradient inside a multicell CPV nickel-hydrogen battery. Steady-state and unsteady-state cases with a constant heat generation rate and a time-dependent heat generation rate were solved.

Comparison Of Heat-Fin Materials And Design Of A Common-Pressure-Vessel Nickel-Hydrogen Battery, Junbom Kim, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

A two-dimensional, axisymmetric, and time-dependent thermal model was developed to study the temperature behavior of the cylindrically shaped common-pressure-vessel nickel-hydrogen cell. A differential-energy-balance equation was used as the governing equation. A finite-element software package called PDE/Protran was used to solve this model. Different materials such as copper, copper beryllium, silver, and sterling silver were compared as heat-fin materials. The heat-fin geometry (thickness and height) and spacing were tested to find a design that yielded an acceptable temperature gradient inside a nickel-hydrogen cell. Pulse heat-generation rates were tested and correlated with the time-dependent heat-generation cases.

Mathematical Modeling Of A Primary Zinc/Air Battery, Z. Mao, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

The mathematical model developed by Sunu and Bennion has been extended to include the separator, precipitation of both solid ZnO and K₂Zn(OH)₄, and the air electrode, and has been used to investigate the behavior of a primary Zn-Air battery with respect to battery design features. Predictions obtained from the model indicate that anode material utilizationis predominantly limited by depletion of the concentration of hydroxide ions. The effect of electrode thickness on anode material utilization is insignificant, whereas material loading per unit volume has a great effect on anode material utilization; a higher loading lowers both the …
