The Wooster Voice (Wooster, Oh), 2005-11-18, Wooster Voice Editors

The Voice: 2001-2011

Two students report being assailed by two men in a truck. The men eventually left the truck and started chasing the students on foot. The men then went back to their truck and began to chase a third student, who was a friend of the other two and who had been attempting to help them. The college mourns the death of Dr. Theodore Roosevelt Williams, a retired chemistry professor. The international student association hosts a "culture show" as part of international events week.

Negative Spin Polarization And Large Tunneling Magnetoresistance In Epitaxial Co|Srtio3|Co Magnetic Tunnel Junctions, Julian P. Velev, Kirill D. Belashchenko, Derek A. Stewart, Mark Van Schilfgaarde, Sitaram Jaswal, Evgeny Y. Tsymbal

Materials Research Science and Engineering Center: Faculty Publications

We perform an ab initio study of spin-polarized tunneling in epitaxial Co|SrTiO₃|Co magnetic tunnel junctions with bcc Co(001) electrodes. We predict a large tunneling magnetoresistance in these junctions, originating from a mismatch in the majority- and minority-spin bands both in bulk bcc Co and at the Co|SrTiO₃ interface. The intricate complex band structure of SrTiO₃ enables efficient tunneling of the minority d electrons which causes the spin polarization of the Co|SrTiO₃ interface to be negative in agreement with experimental data. Our results indicate that epitaxial Co|SrTiO₃|Co magnetic tunnel junctions with bcc Co(001) electrodes …

Low Magnetic Prandtl Number Dynamos With Helical Forcing, Pablo D. Mininni, David C. Montgomery

Dartmouth Scholarship

We present direct numerical simulations of dynamo action in a forced Roberts flow. The behavior of the dynamo is followed as the mechanical Reynolds number is increased, starting from the laminar case until a turbulent regime is reached. The critical magnetic Reynolds for dynamo action is found, and in the turbulent flow it is observed to be nearly independent on the magnetic Prandtl number in the range from ∼0.3 to ∼0.1. Also the dependence of this threshold with the amount of mechanical helicity in the flow is studied. For the different regimes found, the configuration of the magnetic and velocity …

Working With Your Whole Campus To Create An Institutional Repository, Jane Costanza, Beatrice L. Caraway

Library Faculty Research

This session demonstrates various uses of an institutional repository: showcasing student work, archiving images from student theatrical productions, scanning and archiving the student newspaper, and providing campus-wide access to the university s policies, for example. Such projects respond to and shape the changing role of paraprofessionals in the library, but success requires collaboration with other campus units.

Measuring The Expression Of Hypovirulence In A Segregating Population Of Bc2f2 Castanea Dentata Hybrids, Lisa Michelle Worthen

Honors Theses

The American chestnut tree (Castanea dentata) was reduced from an important canopy hardwood to an understory shrub by the chestnut blight fungus (Cryphonectria parasitica). Hypovirulence, a phenomenon whereby Cryphonectria parasitica is weakened in its ability to incite chestnut blight, is caused by doublestranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules of viral origin in the cytoplasm of the fungus.Hypovirulence serves as a biological control of C. parasitica in Europe and small, isolated areas in North America, but has not been an effective, widespread biological control in North America. It has been hypothesized that the moderately higher levels of host resistance of the European chestnut …

Classifcation Of Conics In The Tropical Projective Plane, Amanda Ellis

Theses and Dissertations

This paper defines tropical projective space, TP^n, and the tropical general linear group TPGL(n). After discussing some simple examples of tropical polynomials and their hypersurfaces, a strategy is given for finding all conics in the tropical projective plane. The classification of conics and an analysis of the coefficient space corresponding to such conics is given.

Global Finish Curvature Matched Machining, Jianguo Wang

Theses and Dissertations

As competition grows among manufacturing companies, greater emphasis has recently been placed on product aesthetics and decreasing the product development time. This is promoting and standardizing widespread use of sculptured surface styling within product design. Therefore, industries are looking for high efficiency machining strategies for sculptured surface machining (SSM). Many researchers have produced various methods in tool path generation for SSM. Five-axis curvature matched machining (CM2) is the most efficient. With the widespread use of 5-axis mill in industries, CM2 is a better solution for improving the machining efficiency for product concept models. CM2 has very good performance for global …

A Provacative Test To Determine Brain Compliance In The Management Of Patients With Hydrocephalus, Preston K. Manwaring

Theses and Dissertations

Non-invasive techniques to explore intracranial compliance and pressure have been extensively explored in recent years. Previous techniques have used expensive technologies to make these measurements, often with difficulty. We present a novel, inexpensive provocative test to observe trends in intracranial compliance measurement targeted towards the treatment and management of hydrocephalus. Two techniques are proposed which derive data from the digital and supraorbital arteries as well as tympanic membrane displacement. This requires the use of two photo-plethysmographic sensors and a TMD sensor. A common tilt table apparatus is used to methodically and artificially increase intracranial pressure to stress the cranial system …

Hyperspectral Sub-Pixel Target Detection Using Hybrid Algorithms And Physics Based Modeling, Emmett J. Ientilucci

Theses

This thesis develops a new hybrid target detection algorithm called the Physics Based-Structured InFeasibility Target-detector (PB-SIFT) which incorporates Physics Based Modeling (PBM) along with a new Structured Infeasibility Projector (SIP) metric. Traditional matched filters are susceptible to leakage or false alarms due to bright or saturated pixels that appear target-like to hyperspectral detection algorithms but are not truly target. This detector mitigates against such false alarms.

More often than not, detection algorithms are applied to atmospherically compensated hyperspectral imagery. Rather than compensate the imagery, we take the opposite approach by using a physics based model to generate permutations of what …
