Gateway Battered Women's Services Website Development Project, Lena Alhusseini

Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)

The development of a website for a non-profit organization concerned with domestic violence is described, including the needs assessment, methodology, implementation, finalization, and evaluation. Gateway Battered Women's Services (GBWS), in Aurora, Colorado, provides shelter, advocacy, and counseling for women and children affected by domestic violence. Its goal is the elimination of personal and societal violence against all women and children through education, support services, and promoting social change within the community. GBWS needed a web presence, a database, and an online counseling service to distribute information on domestic violence to potential clients and volunteers and to solicit donations. A questionnaire …

Characterization Of Surface Roughness Effects On Pressure Drop In Single-Phase Flow In Minichannels, Satish G. Kandlikar, Derek Schmitt, Andres L. Carrano, James B. Taylor

Articles

Roughness features on the walls of a channel wall affect the pressure drop of a fluid flowing through that channel. This roughness effect can be described by (i) flow area constriction and (ii) increase in the wall shear stress. Replotting the Moody's friction factor chart with the constricted flow diameter results in a simplified plot and yields a single asymptotic value of friction factor for relative roughness values of e/ D> 0.03 in the fully developed turbulent region. After reviewing the literature, three new roughness parameters are proposed (maximum profile peak height Rp, mean spacing of profile irregularities Rsm, and …

Hubble Space Telescope Stis Spectroscopy Of The Lyα Emission Line In The Central Dominant Galaxies In A426, A1795, And A2597: Constraints On Clouds In The Intracluster Medium, Stefi A. Baum, Ari Laor, Christopher P. O'Dea, Jennifer Mack, Anton M. Koekemoer

Articles

We report on HST/STIS spectra of the Ly-Alpha emission in the central dominant galaxies in three rich clusters of galaxies. We find evidence for a population of clouds in the intracluster medium. We detect 10 Ly-Alpha absorption systems towards the nucleus of NGC1275 with columns of N(HI) ~10^12 to 10^14 cm^−2. These columns would not have been detected in the 21 cm line, but are easily detected in the Ly-Alpha line. Most of the absorption features are located in the broad wings of the emission line. The detected absorption features are most consistent with associated nuclear absorption systems. There is …

Reconstructability Analysis As A Tool For Identifying Gene-Gene Interactions In Studies Of Human Diseases: Ieee Version, Martin Zwick, Stephen Shervais, Patricia Kramer

Complex Systems Faculty Publications and Presentations

There are a number of human diseases that are caused by the epistatic interaction of multiple genes. Detecting these interactions with standard statistical tools is difficult, because there may be an interaction effect, but minimal or no main effect. Reconstructability analysis uses Shannon’s information theory to detect relationships between variables in categorical datasets. We apply reconstructability analysis to data generated by five different models of gene-gene interaction, with heritability levels from 0.053 to 0.008, using 200 controls and 200 cases. We find that even with heritability levels as low as 0.008, and with the inclusion of 50 non-associated genes in …

Noao Fundamental Plane Survey. Ii. Age And Metallicity Along The Red Sequence From Line‐Strength Data, Jenica E. Nelan, Russell J. Smith, Michael J. Hudson, Gary A. Wegner

Dartmouth Scholarship

We present spectroscopic line-strength data for 4097 red-sequence galaxies in 93 low-redshift galaxy clusters and use these to investigate variations in average stellar populations as a function of galaxy mass. Our analysis includes an improved treatment of nebular emission contamination, which affects ~10% of the sample galaxies. Using the stellar population models of D. Thomas and collaborators, we simultaneously fit 12 observed line-strength-σ relations in terms of common underlying trends of age, [Z/H] (total metallicity), and [α/Fe] (α-element enhancement). We find that the observed line-strength-σ relations can be explained only if higher mass red-sequence galaxies are, on average, …

Deep Photometry Of The Globular Cluster M5: Distance Estimates From White Dwarf And Main-Sequence Stars, Andrew C. Layden, Ted Von Hippel, Et Al.

Publications

We present deep VI photometry of stars in the globular cluster M5 (NGC 5904) based on images taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. The resulting color-magnitude diagram reaches below V ≈27 mag, revealing the upper 2–3 mag of the white dwarf cooling sequence and main-sequence stars 8 mag and more below the turnoff. We fit the main sequence to subdwarfs of known parallax to obtain a true distance modulus of (m ̶ M )₀ = 14:45 ± 0:11 mag. A second distance estimate based on fitting the cluster white dwarf sequence to field white dwarfs with known parallax …

On School Choice And Test-Based Accountability, Damian W. Betebenner, Kenneth R. Howe, Samara S. Foster

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

Among the two most prominent school reform measures currently being implemented in The United States are school choice and test-based accountability. Until recently, the two policy initiatives remained relatively distinct from one another. With the passage of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB), a mutualism between choice and accountability emerged whereby school choice complements test-based accountability. In the first portion of this study we present a conceptual overview of school choice and test-based accountability and explicate connections between the two that are explicit in reform implementations like NCLB or implicit within the market-based reform literature in which …

Emanager - Cdo Made Simple, Solomon Vedaprakash

Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)

The eManager application integrates the existing enforcement systems and MS Exchange Server 2003. The application exploits the benefits of CDO, ADO, LDAP, ADSI, XML and COM technologies. The application explicates the integration and utilization of CDO using VC++ programming language. It illustrates how CDO can be implemented effectively in various circumstances while maintaining uncomplicated application design and solutions. It demonstrates how CDO and ADO complements each other and interacts with other Windows artifacts such as ADSI, LDAP and Active Directory. The application implements the COM methodology that establishes the COM events using connection points and sinks. The integration and management …

Designed Extension Of Survival Studies: Application To Clinical Trials With Unrecognized Heterogeneity, Yi Li, Mei-Chiung Shih, Rebecca A. Betensky

Harvard University Biostatistics Working Paper Series

It is well known that unrecognized heterogeneity among patients, such as is conferred by genetic subtype, can undermine the power of randomized trial, designed under the assumption of homogeneity, to detect a truly beneficial treatment. We consider the conditional power approach to allow for recovery of power under unexplained heterogeneity. While Proschan and Hunsberger (1995) confined the application of conditional power design to normally distributed observations, we consider more general and difficult settings in which the data are in the framework of continuous time and are subject to censoring. In particular, we derive a procedure appropriate for the analysis of …
