Mixed Aggregates Of 1-Methoxyallenyllithium With Lithium Chloride, Lawrence M. Pratt, Darryl D. Dixon, Marcus A. Tius Dec 2014

Mixed Aggregates Of 1-Methoxyallenyllithium With Lithium Chloride, Lawrence M. Pratt, Darryl D. Dixon, Marcus A. Tius

Publications and Research

A combined computational and 13C NMR study was used to investigate the formation of mixed aggregates of 1-methoxyallenyllithium and lithium chloride in tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution. The observed and calculated chemical shifts, as well as the calculated free energies of mixed aggregate formation (MP2/6-31+G(d)), are consistent with the formation of a mixed dimer as the major species in solution. Free energies of mixed dimer, trimer, and tetramer formation were calculated by using the B3LYP and MP2 methods and the 6-31+G(d) basis set. The two methods generated different predictions of which mixed aggregates will be formed, with B3LYP/6-31+G(d) favoring mixed trimers and …

Conditions Préalables À L’Implantation De La Rotation Chez Une Population D’Assembleurs-Monteurs Du Secteur De L’Aéronautique : L’Impact Des Exigences De Qualité Sur Le Développement De La Polyvalence Et Sur L’Apprentissage, Denys Denis, Marie St-Vincent, Maud Gonella Dec 2014

Conditions Préalables À L’Implantation De La Rotation Chez Une Population D’Assembleurs-Monteurs Du Secteur De L’Aéronautique : L’Impact Des Exigences De Qualité Sur Le Développement De La Polyvalence Et Sur L’Apprentissage, Denys Denis, Marie St-Vincent, Maud Gonella

Rapports de recherche scientifique

Une grande entreprise du secteur de l’aéronautique désire développer la polyvalence de ses assembleurs-monteurs par l’instauration de la rotation de postes. Convenant qu’il s’agit d’une problématique complexe, l’expertise de l’Institut de recherche Robert-Sauvé en santé et en sécurité du travail (IRSST) est sollicitée. La demande formulée consiste à identifier les conditions requises pour implanter la rotation des postes, souhaitant ainsi prévenir les TMS qui affectent cette population de travailleurs. Le département où sont assemblés les cabines de pilotage de deux des avions-phares de l’entreprise est ciblé à la fois de par les exigences physiques qui le caractérisent, sa …

The Impact Of Academic Advising On The Retention Of First-Year Students In A Gulf-Arab University, Selma Hagahmed Dec 2014

The Impact Of Academic Advising On The Retention Of First-Year Students In A Gulf-Arab University, Selma Hagahmed

College of Education and Human Sciences: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

This study investigated academic advising and retention in a Gulf-Arab university. Quantitative and qualitative data were gathered in order to understand how academic advising could have potentially contributed to the improvement of student retention. The focus of the study was on first-year students in the College of Business and Economics and the College of Law in a Gulf-Arab national four-year institution. The study compared the Grade Point Average (GPA) and the number of credit hours in two groups of first-year students: 1) a treatment group of students who utilized academic advising services and (2) the control group of students who …


Managing Threats To The Urban Forest: From Dutch Elm Disease To Emerald Ash Borer - Learning From Experience, Christopher J. Borman Dec 2014

Managing Threats To The Urban Forest: From Dutch Elm Disease To Emerald Ash Borer - Learning From Experience, Christopher J. Borman

Doctor of Plant Health Program: Dissertations and Student Research

The urban forest provides important essential services to all municipalities; however, its value is often overlooked. The urban forest contributes to energy savings, environmental benefits, psychological well-being, and social benefits. Managing the urban forest in a sustainable manner is important if we wish to benefit from these services well into the future. Reliable management techniques have been created through previous experiences with pests, and these should be utilized and improved for use on urban forests.

American elm (Ulmus americana L.) was once a major component of the urban forests of North America. In 1927, Dutch elm disease (DED) was …


Does Tort Law Empower?, Anthony J. Sebok Dec 2014

Does Tort Law Empower?, Anthony J. Sebok

Online Publications

Ori Herstein’s How Tort Law Empowers takes on the question of whether and how tort law empowers victims. Herstein presents himself as a friendly critic of civil recourse theory, and offers an amendment that he claims makes the theory both more plausible and less interesting. Like many friendly amendments, it is an offer that must be carefully examined before it is accepted.


Analytical Modeling And Performance Assessment Of Micropulse Photon-Counting Lidar System, Jiashu Zhang Dec 2014

Analytical Modeling And Performance Assessment Of Micropulse Photon-Counting Lidar System, Jiashu Zhang

Theses

The melting of polar ice sheets and evidence of global warming continue to remain prominent research interests among scientists. To better understand global volumetric change of ice sheets, NASA intends to launch Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) in 2017. ICESat-2 employs a high frequency photon-counting laser altimeter, which will provide significantly greater spatial sampling. However, the combined effects of sub-beam complex surfaces, as well as system effects on returning photon distribution have not been systematically studied. To better understand the effects of various system attributes and to help improve the theory behind lidar sensing of complex surfaces, an …


Tidy Guide – A Beginner’S Guide To An Organized Home, Katie Hollenbeck Dec 2014

Tidy Guide – A Beginner’S Guide To An Organized Home, Katie Hollenbeck

Theses

Search for "how to organize" on the web, and you will be inundated with endless resources. Organizing information is everywhere, making the task seem intimidating. For my thesis project, I sought out to create an interactive, instructional, web-based application that would coach users on how to organize objects within a specific space. My goal was to create a unique, visual, creative solution - one that did not already exist on the web, and one that would become an important tool for users who were seeking organizing assistance and advice. Not only did I intend the application to be unique, visual, …

Synthesis Of Irreversible Incompletely Specified Multi-Output Functions To Reversible Eosops Circuits With Pse Gates, Robert Adrian Fiszer Dec 2014

Synthesis Of Irreversible Incompletely Specified Multi-Output Functions To Reversible Eosops Circuits With Pse Gates, Robert Adrian Fiszer

Dissertations and Theses

As quantum computers edge closer to viability, it becomes necessary to create logic synthesis and minimization algorithms that take into account the particular aspects of quantum computers that differentiate them from classical computers. Since quantum computers can be functionally described as reversible computers with superposition and entanglement, both advances in reversible synthesis and increased utilization of superposition and entanglement in quantum algorithms will increase the power of quantum computing.

One necessary component of any practical quantum computer is the computation of irreversible functions. However, very little work has been done on algorithms that synthesize and minimize irreversible functions into a …


The Role Of Nurses In An Interdisciplinary Care Team Responding To Mass Fatality Disasters: Promoting Equity And Access To Care, Susan B. Hassmiller, Lavonne M. Adams, Susan Mace Weeks Dec 2014

The Role Of Nurses In An Interdisciplinary Care Team Responding To Mass Fatality Disasters: Promoting Equity And Access To Care, Susan B. Hassmiller, Lavonne M. Adams, Susan Mace Weeks

General Submissions: Presentations (Oral and Poster)

The majority of individuals cared for by international relief organizations responding to multi-fatality disasters are those with limited access to care; therefore, human care inequities are frequently apparent. This presentation will focus on nurses facilitating equity and access to care for survivors of mass fatality disasters through an interdisciplinary care team model. Using a reflective practice methodology, the first presenter will describe her "lived experience" as a nurse working on an interdisciplinary care team responding to catastrophic disasters. The nurse's role in facilitating culturally sensitive care access for those most disenfranchised will be highlighted. The second presenter will describe an …
