The Development Of A Comprehensive Logistics And Transportation Software Technology Survey Instrument, Claudia Andreani, Rezell Cohen, Kevin Welch

All Volumes (2001-2008)

In this paper, we developed a comprehensive survey instrument that will be distributed to the leading U.S. Logistics and Transportation schools. We describe the specific procedures that were followed to build the preliminary version of our survey. We hope that this survey will help the Coggin College of Business at the University of North Florida learn about the leading software technology adoption patterns at our peer institutions.

The Relevance Of Confucian Philosophy To Modern Concepts Of Leadership And Followership, Sujeeta Dhakhwa, Stacey Enriquez

All Volumes (2001-2008)

The purpose of this paper is to discuss Confucian philosophy and compare its relevance to modern concepts of leadership and followership. It will demonstrate that both exemplify the same ideology, though separated by centuries of history. The paper first introduces the reader to the history of Chinese government and the life of Confucius as a teacher. Then it will expand on the importance of understanding his philosophy on leadership and followership as well as its impact on China’s political and cultural development. It will then examine three Confucian teachings on leadership and three on followership. Finally, with this information, it …

An Autonomous Orbit Transfer Controller For The Nasa Magnetospheric Multiscale Satellite, Michael Borrelli

Master's Theses and Capstones

With the ever more demanding goals of space exploration and research comes the need for more complex mission planning. Part of this complexity manifests itself in a satellite's orbit specifications. An increasing number of explorer missions call for a group of satellites to maneuver while arranged in a tightly controlled formation, or constellation. In order to maintain these constellations at immense distances from Earth, engineers must rely on feedback systems within the satellites' hardware. Controllers are created to manipulate the actuators, such as thrusters, and are therefore responsible for the economical use of fuel; overusing fuel can reduce a satellite's …

Protistan Predation And Tce Biodegradation In A Fractured Rock Aquifer, Joseph J. Cunningham Iii.

Master's Theses and Capstones

Despite extensive research on the resources required to initiate dechlorination of trichloroethene (TCE), slow rates and stalling continue to be observed in situ. The majority of research on biodegradation of TCE has focused resource availability, while predation is poorly understood. Predation has the potential to significantly alter bacterial abundance, and can play an important role in selecting what species are present, and determine if the community is capable of mineralizing TCE. The impact of protistan predation on TCE biodegradation rates, and occurrence and length of stalls was measured in this experiment. When protists were inhibited, TCE was mineralized. Protistan predation …

Synthesis And Properties Of Poly(Itaconic Acid), Ming Cao

Master's Theses and Capstones

Previously, itaconic acid (IA) was known to be at best a difficult monomer to be polymerized. Here we report effective conditions for an easy polymerization of itaconic acid to high conversion and high molecular weight. tert-Butyl Hydroperoxide (tBHP) was used as an efficient initiator for solution polymerization of IA. Conversions higher than 90% can be reached in less than 1hr. Molecular weights of poly(itaconic acid) have been analyzed in GPC. The structure of PIA was studied by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR. The initiator concentration dependence and monomer concentration effect have been investigated.

Based on the polymerization process of itaconic acid, a simple …

Rapid Test Method For Determining Alkali-Silica Reactivity Expansion In Concrete And Aggregate, Douglas R. Pac

Master's Theses and Capstones

The undesirable expansion of concrete due to a reaction between alkalis in the cement and reactive siliceous aggregates, known as alkali-silica reactivity (ASR), continues to be a world-wide problem. Current test methods for predicting ASR are either inaccurate because they are unrepresentative of field conditions or require long testing periods that become impractical for use in the field. Because of the rising interest to minimize distress caused by ASR, alternative methods must be considered.

A key factor in the prediction of ASR in concrete over time is the reactivity of the aggregate. In the present study, an attempt was made …

Statistical Processing Of Radar, Sonar, And Optical Signals, Cuichun Xu

Open Access Dissertations

This dissertation is concerned with problems in statistical processing of Radar, Sonar and optical signals including model order selection, parameter estimation, power spectral density estimation, signal detection and classification. It is proved that the exponentially embedded families (EEF), which is a recently proposed model order selection criterion, is consistent. It is also found in computer simulations that the EEF works well in difficult situations. A method is proposed to evaluate the CRLB via the characteristic function. With the proposed method, the CRLBs of the scale parameter and the shape parameter of the K-distribution are successfully computed. It is also proved …

Trust Establishment In Computer Networks: Theories And Applications, Yafei Yang

Open Access Dissertations

Trust, a subject extensively studied in sociology and psychology, has long been known as the driving force for collaboration in social communities. Recently, trust is recognized as a key component in new security tools to defend computer networks, such as rating systems in e-commerce networks, peer-to-peer networks, mobile ad hoc networks, and wireless sensor networks. This dissertation focuses on trust establishment framework, theoretical analysis, and trust-based security solutions in different computer networks. It provides in-depth understanding on trust establishment process and its potential vulnerabilities. It also provides effective, light-weight solutions to critical security problems in rating systems, online reputation systems, …

Delta Function For An Affine Subspace, Jeremy Becnel

Faculty Publications

The Kubo–Yokoi and Donsker delta functions are well known generalized functions in infinite dimensional distribution theory. In this paper we develop the delta function for an affine subspace and show that it is a generalization of the Kubo–Yokoi and Donsker delta functions. The Wiener– Itˆo expansion of the delta function for an affine subspace is also given.
