Roadmap Query For Sensor Network Assisted Navigation In Dynamic Environments, Sangeeta Bhattacharya, Nuzhet Atay, Gazihan Alankus, Chenyang Lu, O. Burchan Bayazit, Gruia-Catalin Roman

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

Autonomous mobile entity navigation through dynamic and unknown environments is an essential part of many mission critical applications like search and rescue and fire fighting. The dynamism of the environment necessitates the mobile entity to constantly maintain a high degree of awareness of the changing environment. This criteria makes it difficult to achieve good navigation performance by using just on-board sensors and existing navigation methods and motivates the use of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to aid navigation. In this paper, we present a novel approach that integrates a roadmap based navigation algorithm with a novel network query protocol called Roadmap …

Performance Of A C4f8o Gas Radiator Ring Imaging Cherenkov Detector Using Multi-Anode Photomultiplier Tubes, Raymond Mountain, Marina Artuso, Chaouki Boulahouache, S. Blusk

Physics - All Scholarship

We report on test results of a novel ring imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detection system consisting of a 3 meter long gaseous C4F8O radiator, a focusing mirror, and a photon detector array based on Hamamatsu multi-anode photomultiplier tubes. This system was developed to identify charged particles in the momentum range from 3-70 GeV/c for the BTeV experiment.

Object Oriented Cae Software For The Exploration And Design Of Microstructures, Stephen D. Sintay

Theses and Dissertations

Through the use of generalized spherical harmonic basis functions a spectral representation is used to model the microstructure of cubic materials. This model is then used to predict the macroscopic elastic and plastic properties of materials with cubic crystal symmetry and various sample symmetry including triclinic and axial—symmetric. Building on the work of citeN{Barnett-FractureMechanics} the influence that anisotropy has on the fatigue response of the material is also modeled. This is accomplished through using the effective elastic stiffness tensor in the computation of crack extension force G. The resulting material model and macroscopic property calculations are the foundation for …

Wrongful Birth: The Courts' Dilemma In Determining A Remedy For A "Blessed Event", Michael Thomas Murtaugh

ExpressO

My article deals with the tort of wrongful birth. It is an action in negligence against a physician who failed to properly perform a sterilization or abortion procedure, after which an unplanned or unwanted child was born. My focus is on the damages that the plaintiff parents should recover from the tortfeasor based on the parents' purpose not to have the child.

Learning Technologies: Passport To The Land Of Significant Learning, Pandeli Glavanis Dr.

Faculty Journal Articles

The preceding newsletter suggested that electronic portfolios constitute a key element in modern liberal education since they enable us to move beyond the “sanctity of the content” in favor of a more learner-centric approach. Furthermore, it was argued that electronic portfolios enable students to develop reflective skills with respect to learning goals and objectives. Following on, this newsletter, will argue that a variety of other learning technologies can also contribute to enhanced pedagogy and enable faculty to deliver student-centered lectures: i.e. lectures which deliver “the sacred content”, but also engage students and thus contribute towards active and critical learning.
