Mechanistic Investigation Toward A Microkinetic Model For Decarboxylation Of Gamma Valerolactone Over Silica Alumina, Christian Suhngwa Jungong Nov 2016

Mechanistic Investigation Toward A Microkinetic Model For Decarboxylation Of Gamma Valerolactone Over Silica Alumina, Christian Suhngwa Jungong

Theses - ALL

γ-valerolactone (GVL) ring opening- and decarboxylation rates were measured over amorphous silica alumina (SiO2/Al2O3) catalyst in the gas phase, using a down configuration fixed bed reactor, operating under anhydrous and differential conditions. By varying temperature, space time and GVL partial pressure, measured rates were leveraged to determine kinetic parameters (apparent activation barriers and pre-exponential factors) for the ring opening and decarboxylation step, as well as thermodynamic parameters (enthalpy- and entropy of reaction) for the ring opening step. The experimentally measured parameters were applied for the development of a microkinetic model that quantitatively describes the overall kinetics involved in the decarboxylation …

Mathematical Models Are A Powerful Method To Understand And Control The Spread Of Huanglongbing, Rachel A Taylor, Erin A Mordecai, Christopher A Gilligan, Jason R. Rohr, Leah R Johnson Nov 2016

Mathematical Models Are A Powerful Method To Understand And Control The Spread Of Huanglongbing, Rachel A Taylor, Erin A Mordecai, Christopher A Gilligan, Jason R. Rohr, Leah R Johnson

Integrative Biology Faculty and Staff Publications

Huanglongbing (HLB), or citrus greening, is a global citrus disease occurring in almost all citrus growing regions. It causes substantial economic burdens to individual growers, citrus industries and governments. Successful management strategies to reduce disease burden are desperately needed but with so many possible interventions and combinations thereof it is difficult to know which are worthwhile or cost-effective. We review how mathematical models have yielded useful insights into controlling disease spread for other vector-borne plant diseases, and the small number of mathematical models of HLB. We adapt a malaria model to HLB, by including temperature-dependent psyllid traits, "flushing" of trees, …

Teaching Culinary Skills Using Video Modeling To Individuals With Traumatic Brain Injury, Sarah Castro Nov 2016

Teaching Culinary Skills Using Video Modeling To Individuals With Traumatic Brain Injury, Sarah Castro

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Individuals with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) often need to be taught independent living skills in order to reintegrate into community settings. This study examined the use of video modeling to teach culinary skills to three individuals with TBI. Video modeling is easily accessible, inexpensive, and not reliant on an additional person to directly teach skills. For all three participants, video modeling resulted in increases in cooking skills using a task analysis created for each food item prepared. For one participant, the skills maintained over two weeks and generalized to a novel food. For another participant video modeling was insufficient in …

Struggling To Get It Right: Performance Measurement Challenges And Strategies For Addressing Them Among Funders Of Human Services., David Campbell, Kristina T. Lambright Nov 2016

Struggling To Get It Right: Performance Measurement Challenges And Strategies For Addressing Them Among Funders Of Human Services., David Campbell, Kristina T. Lambright

Public Administration Faculty Scholarship

This paper examines the challenges public and nonprofit human service funders face in the performance measurement process and the strategies they use to address these challenges. We use survey and interview data to compare funders’ experiences across a region. Common challenges included dissatisfaction with formal data collection procedures, difficulty getting providers to comply with reporting requirements, provider performance problems and lack of capacity to use performance information. Capacity issues were a greater concern for smaller funders. Funders used a variety of strategies to address challenges. Use of some strategies depended on context. Practices were relatively consistent across funder groups.
