Heavenly Genes: Eugenics And The New Woman In Fin De Siecle England., Jane V. Rago Jan 2009

Heavenly Genes: Eugenics And The New Woman In Fin De Siecle England., Jane V. Rago

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

In 1886 the Contagious Diseases Acts were repealed after a long sixteen year fight, led by social reformers and what would later come to be known as the first wave of feminism. Western feminism was born and bred in large part out of the debates sparked by the Contagious Diseases Acts, debates that opened up into the appeal for women to be granted full citizenship through the right to vote, to own property after marriage, and the right to education and employment outside the home. The crux of this argument was grounded in a critique of mid-Victorian ideology of separate …


Beryl Levine: North Dakota's First Female State Supreme Court Justice, Cody Benard Stanley Jan 2009

Beryl Levine: North Dakota's First Female State Supreme Court Justice, Cody Benard Stanley

History, Philosophy, and Religious Studies

The intent of this thesis is to explore the life and perspective of the North Dakota State Supreme Court's first female justice, Beryl J. Levine. The overarching question throughout this thesis is, whether or not, because she was the first, Levine added a new voice to the court. This analysis begins with a biography of Levine. This biography will illustrate how Levine's knowledge and world views were affected by the environment that she grew up and lived in. The subsequent section deals with Levine's rulings on divorce cases. Levine had a unique perspective on divorce law; specifically in the areas …

Intelligent Cold Supply Chain Management System With Radio Frequency Identification, Global Positioning System, And Wireless Sensor Network, Xiaomin Yang

Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering

This thesis establishes an intelligent cold supply chain management system which consists of two parts: one is the intelligent tracking system integrated with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Global Positioning System (GPS), and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN); the other is the cold supply chain model. This tracking system is mainly designed to monitor the food products during the transport, including two parts, a data terminal and a data server. The data terminal is installed inside a container, comprised of GPS, Bluetooth, industrial computer, WSN, RFID reader, RFID antenna, and Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) modem. The data server is a computer …

Synthesis, Characterization And Photocatalytic Applications Of One Dimensional Titanium Dioxide Nanostructures., Jin Wang Jan 2009

Synthesis, Characterization And Photocatalytic Applications Of One Dimensional Titanium Dioxide Nanostructures., Jin Wang

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

TiO2 are extensively used in the photocatalysts and photoelectrochemical devices for solar energy harvesting, hydrogen generation and environment remediation. The photocatalysis efficiency of TiO2 depends on the electron-hole separation and the electron-hole recombination processes. It remains a challenge to improve the generation efficiency of electron and holes and to reduce the electron-hole recombination rate. Furthermore, the large bandgap of pristine TiO2 limits its photocatalytic activity to the ultraviolet regime that accounts for about 5% of the spectral output of sunlight. This research aims to facilitate the photocatalytic applications of TiO2 through accomplishing three specific tasks: (i) synthesize one-dimensional (1-D) TiO …
