A Direct Thrust Measurement System For A Waterjet Propelled, Free Running Usv, John A. Grimes
A Direct Thrust Measurement System For A Waterjet Propelled, Free Running Usv, John A. Grimes
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
The relationship between cross-flow at a waterjet inlet and delivered thrust is not fully understood. A direct thrust measurement system was designed for a waterjet propelled, free running USV. To induce sway velocity at the waterjet inlet, which was considered equivalent to the cross flow, circles of varying radii were performed at Reynolds Numbers between 3.48 x 106 and 8.7 x 106 and radii from 2.7 to 6.3 boat lengths. Sway velocities were less than twenty percent of mean forward speed with slip angles that were less than 20°. Thrust Loading Coefficients were compared to sway as a percent of …
"A Spirit Of Benevolence", Jennifer L. Boxen
"A Spirit Of Benevolence", Jennifer L. Boxen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
This thesis argues that the British Public Health movement did not begin in 1842 with Edwin Chadwick's publication, Report on the Sanitary Conditions of the Labouring Population of Great Britain (1842), or in 1848, with the subsequent passage of the Public Health Act. The beginning of the public health movement was instead the product of local initiatives such as the Manchester Board of Health, administered not by central government, but by members of the local community supported by predominantly philanthropic funding. The Manchester movement predated Chadwick's efforts by at least half a century and bore a greater resemblance to the …

A Troubled Past: Reconfiguring Postwar Suburban American Identity In Revolutionary Road, 1961 And Mad Men, 2007-2012, Erin M. Kiley
A Troubled Past: Reconfiguring Postwar Suburban American Identity In Revolutionary Road, 1961 And Mad Men, 2007-2012, Erin M. Kiley
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
This thesis takes a cultural studies approach to representations of post-war U.S. suburbia in Richard Yates’ 1961 novel Revolutionary Road, as well as in the contemporary AMC television series Mad Men. These texts explore the postwar time period, which holds a persistently prominent and idealized space in the collective cultural imagination of America, despite the fact that it was a period troubled by isolationism, containment culture, rampant consumerism, and extreme pressure to conform to social roles. This project disrupts the romantic narrative of postwar America by focusing on the latent anxiety within the suburban landscape—by interrogating the performative nature of …
Certificate Authentication Security And The Preservation Of Privacy In Wireless Access In Vehicular Environment (Wave), Clifford Allen Kemp
Certificate Authentication Security And The Preservation Of Privacy In Wireless Access In Vehicular Environment (Wave), Clifford Allen Kemp
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
Future vehicles will exchange safety-critical information messages wirelessly with other vehicles on the road. We must provide secure mechanisms to validate the authenticity and integrity of these messages. The IEEE Standard 1609.2 defines the format of secure messages and identifies security algorithms and mechanism for use in Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment (WAVE). We propose an organizational structure for Central Management Entities (CMEs) to address these goals and functional requirements, and to balance the security of communications with protection of user privacy. A concern in vehicular communications is the privacy of vehicle owners. Privacy must be preserved and the user …

Class Of Rational Surfaces With A Non-Rational Singularity Explicitly Given By A Single Equation, Drake. Harmon
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
The family of algebraic surfaces X dened by the single equation zn = (y a1x) (y anx)(x 1) over an algebraically closed eld k of characteristic zero, where a1; : : : ; an 2 k are distinct, is studied. It is shown that this is a rational surface with a non-rational singularity at the origin. The ideal class group of the surface is computed. The terms of the Chase-Harrison-Rosenberg seven term exact sequence on the open complement of the ramication locus of X ! A2 are computed; the Brauer group is also studied in this unramied setting. The analysis …

Comparative Study Of Current Practices Of Selected University-Based Children’S Chorus Directors In Relation To Arts Integration, Sally C. Brown
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
There is limited research available focusing on arts integration at the secondary school level and even less on a children’s chorus curriculum. Therefore, the aim of this qualitative study is to investigate the application of arts integration in a university-based children’s chorus based on historical research, rehearsal observations, and interviews of practicing children’s chorus directors. The pedagogical practices and philosophies of three prominent children’s chorus directors, Robyn Lana, Henry Leck, and Ann Small were conducted to understand the relationship between arts integration theory and practice in their respective children’s choruses. The criteria used to select the participants of this study …
Communication And Interactivity In B2b Relationships, Micah Murphy
Communication And Interactivity In B2b Relationships, Micah Murphy
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
This research explores the impact of interactive communication on business-to business (B2B) relationships. In the past decade the internet and especially social media as a mode of communication has grown rapidly in both consumer and business markets. Drawing on marketing channels and communications literature this paper identifies the dimensions of interactive communication and develops a theoretical framework to examine their impact on satisfaction, commitment, and advocacy. Media synchronicity theory and the concept of the internet as an alternative to the real world are used to distinguish between digital and non-digital modes of communication. Relationship marketing is used to identify the …

The purposeful sample included survey and interview responses from fifth grade and eighth grade general and physical science teachers. Even though they may not be generalizable to other teachers or classrooms due to a low response rate, findings from this study indicated teachers with fewer years of teaching science had a higher level of computer use but …
Conscious And Non-Conscious Bases Of Social Judgement, Susan D. Sullivan
Conscious And Non-Conscious Bases Of Social Judgement, Susan D. Sullivan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
Research on social judgment typically emphasizes one of three processes that enable unequivocal understanding of events with ambiguous causality. In the social influence perspective, people are susceptible to the interpretations offered by others. In the explicit attitudes perspective, people interpret events in line with their consciously held attitudes and values. In the implicit attitudes perspective, people interpret events in line with unconscious biases. The model investigated in the present study assumes that these processes vary in salience depending on people's mindset. Participants with low versus high implicit racial bias toward Blacks read a narrative concerning this altercation under either a …

Data Mining Heuristic-¬Based Malware Detection For Android Applications, Naser Peiravian
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
The Google Android mobile phone platform is one of the dominant smartphone operating systems on the market. The open source Android platform allows developers to take full advantage of the mobile operation system, but also raises significant issues related to malicious applications (Apps). The popularity of Android platform draws attention of many developers which also attracts the attention of cybercriminals to develop different kinds of malware to be inserted into the Google Android Market or other third party markets as safe applications. In this thesis, we propose to combine permission, API (Application Program Interface) calls and function calls to build …
Democratization And Exogenous Cultural Influence, John R. Batey
Democratization And Exogenous Cultural Influence, John R. Batey
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
Democratic forms of government are either consolidating democratic institutions or unraveling into authoritarianism in the former Soviet Union. Among the possible causes of each success or failure to consolidate democracy is the character of civil society and its cultural proximity to long-standing, modern state-based, consolidated democracies of the West. What impact does Western or Westernized media have upon the indigenous civil societies of Eastern Europe, and is this impact sufficient to consolidate democracy among the states of the former Soviet Union? As case studies, Eastern Europe contains two states, Estonia and Russia, where democracy has either succeeded or failed alongside …
Cyclic Lipodepsipeptides As Lead Structures For The Discovery Of New Antiobiotics, Nina. Bionda
Cyclic Lipodepsipeptides As Lead Structures For The Discovery Of New Antiobiotics, Nina. Bionda
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
With antimicrobial resistance to current drugs steadily rising, the development of new antibiotics with novel mechanisms of action has become an imperative. The majority of life-threatening infections worldwide are caused by "ESKAPE" pathogens which are encountered in more than 40% of hospital-acquired infections, and are resistant to the majority of commonly used antibiotics. Naturally occurring cyclic depsipeptides, microbial secondary metabolites that contain one or more ester bonds in addition to amide bonds, have emerged as an important source of pharmacologically active compounds or lead structures for the development of novel antibiotics. Some of those peptides are either already marketed (daptomycin) …
Development Of A Novel Assay For In Vivo Screening Of Neuromodulatory Drugs And Targeted Disruption Of Cholinergic Synaptic Transmission In Drosophila Melanogaster, Monica Mejia
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2010 - 2019
Finding novel compounds that affect neuronal or muscular function is of great interest, as they can serve as potential pharmacological agents for a variety of neurological disorders. For instance, conopeptides have been developed into powerful drugs like the painkiller PrialtTM. Most conopeptides, however, have yet to be characterized, revealing the need for a rapid and straightforward screening method. We have designed a novel bioassay, which allows for unbiased screening of biological activity of compounds in vivo against numerous molecular targets on a wide variety of neurons and muscles in a rapid and straightforward manner. For this, we paired nanoinjection of …
