Gpu Acceleration Of Kinetic Simulations Of Dust Particles In Rf Plasmas, Aaron A. Applegate Jan 2024

Gpu Acceleration Of Kinetic Simulations Of Dust Particles In Rf Plasmas, Aaron A. Applegate

Theses

Dusty plasmas are characterized by micro to nanometer sized particles interacting with ions and electrons in a plasma. Dust grains interact with each other via Coulomb forces as they acquire electric charge through the collection of electrons and ions. This interaction can generate crystalline structures because of mutual repulsion and produce collective behaviors. Under the influence of gravity, dust crystals are squeezed into a two-dimensional monolayer. In microgravity, three-dimensional crystal structures and a broad range of collective behavior are possible as dust grain interaction forces and plasma effects become dominant. In this study, dusty plasmas were modeled via a continuum …


Development Of A Simulation Tool For Assessing Electrical Short Risks From Metallic Whiskers On Printed Circuit Boards Using Unity, Joseph Eric Black Jan 2024

Development Of A Simulation Tool For Assessing Electrical Short Risks From Metallic Whiskers On Printed Circuit Boards Using Unity, Joseph Eric Black

Theses

Tin whiskers are metal strands that spontaneously form on tin surfaces and can grow up to a centimeter long. These whiskers can cause electrical shorts by breaking off and landing on circuit boards, yet there is limited simulation and analysis data regarding their shorting probability. This thesis presents a software tool developed using Unity, Blender, and FreeCAD to simulate the behavior of tin whiskers on PCBs. The tool accurately represents PCBs and whiskers, applying various forces to predict whisker landing positions and the impacted metal faces. By importing STEP files of PCBs, the software automatically sets up the simulation in …


Enhanced Suppression Of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering In High Energy Fiber Lasers Through Novel Chaotic Phase Modulation, Zachary Helton Jan 2024

Enhanced Suppression Of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering In High Energy Fiber Lasers Through Novel Chaotic Phase Modulation, Zachary Helton

Theses

Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) poses a significant challenge in the development of high-power, single-mode continuous-wave fiber lasers. SBS occurs when the laser intensity is sufficient to generate acoustic vibrations in the fiber, leading to the reflection of light and limiting the maximum achievable power. Spectral broadening of the laser linewidth is a common SBS suppression technique. This thesis presents a novel approach using sine waves phase-modulated by chaotically generated noise to achieve improved SBS suppression. Experimental results demonstrate that this method achieves flatter and broader optical linewidths compared to traditional white noise modulation, even at lower power levels. This approach …


Complexity, Grouping, And Similarity: Effects On Numerosity Estimations, Keighly Harris Jan 2024

Complexity, Grouping, And Similarity: Effects On Numerosity Estimations, Keighly Harris

Theses

This study looked at the effects of visual features like complexity, grouping, and similarity on numerosity estimations. I hypothesized that complex visual stimuli would be more difficult to accurately estimate than simple visual stimuli. Additionally, I hypothesized that stimuli that were visually similar or displayed in spread out, distributed patterns would have more accurate estimations compared to visually random or closely grouped stimuli. Lastly, this study was designed to assess the combined effects of these visual features on numerosity estimation accuracy. Participants were asked to briefly look at images displaying groups of items containing these visual features, estimate the number …

Bioelectrics Publications

Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) is a malignant cancer with a very high mortality rate around the world. African American(AA) women are 28% more likely to die from triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) than white women with the same diagnosis. AA patients are also more likely to be diagnosed at a later stage of the disease and have the lowest survival rates for any stage of diagnosis; There are very few existing anti TNBC drugs with therapeutic efficacy hence newer anti TNBC drug design and investigation is needed. Carbon Nano Tubes(CNT) in recent years have shown effective anti-cancer properties in various …


Council Of Canadians With Disabilities: Another Reminder To Resolve Cases On The Merits, Gerard J. Kennedy Jan 2024

Council Of Canadians With Disabilities: Another Reminder To Resolve Cases On The Merits, Gerard J. Kennedy

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In British Columbia (Attorney General) v. Council of Canadians with Disabilities, Wagner C.J.C., for a unanimous Supreme Court of Canada, granted public interest standing to the Council of Canadians with Disabilities to challenge the constitutionality of provisions of British Columbia statutes that authorize physicians to subject patients with mental disabilities to psychiatric treatment without their consent or the consent of a substitute decision-maker. In many ways, the decision is simply a doubling-down on Cromwell J.’s unanimous decision a decade earlier in Canada (Attorney General) v. Downtown Eastside Sex Workers United Against Violence Society. This paper explains the holdings in Council …


From Rights To Justice: Perspectives On Access To Disability Justice In Britishcolumbia (Attorney General) V. Council Of Canadians With Disabilities, C. Tess Sheldon, Karen R. Spector, Ruby Dhand Jan 2024

From Rights To Justice: Perspectives On Access To Disability Justice In Britishcolumbia (Attorney General) V. Council Of Canadians With Disabilities, C. Tess Sheldon, Karen R. Spector, Ruby Dhand

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

Relying on the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in British Columbia (Attorney General) v. Council of Canadians with Disabilities as illustration, this paper aims to broaden perspectives about the availability of disability rights and disability justice. The first section considers the access to justice concerns that flow from the initial decision to deny standing to the Council of Canadians with Disabilities. Second, it addresses the barriers to accessing justice for persons with disabilities that grounded the case and the disproportionate impact of the impugned mental health legislation on equity-denied communities. The final section evaluates the persistence of procedural and substantive …


Legislative Choices In Using Section 33 And Judicial Scrutiny, Robert Leckey Jan 2024

Legislative Choices In Using Section 33 And Judicial Scrutiny, Robert Leckey

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

This paper highlights choices made by legislatures when they activate the notwithstanding clause in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Such choices relate to the extent of the rules or statutes protected from possible strike- down; to the Charter provisions from which protection is granted; and to timing, namely, whether the notwithstanding clause is used pre-emptively or after litigation. These choices may significantly affect voters’ knowledge of the effect on rights of a law shielded by the notwithstanding clause. Moreover, uses of the notwithstanding clause relate variably to theoretical justifications for this mechanism. For example, the view of the …


A Lifeline During Custodial Interrogations? The Right To Counsel And Reflections On R. V. Dussault And R. V. Lafrance, Amar Khoday Jan 2024

A Lifeline During Custodial Interrogations? The Right To Counsel And Reflections On R. V. Dussault And R. V. Lafrance, Amar Khoday

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In 2022, the Supreme Court of Canada issued two judgments with respect to the constitutional right to counsel: R. v. Dussault and R. v. Lafrance. This right is located in section 10(b) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Specifically, both decisions concern an accused’s right to reconsult counsel in the context of custodial police interrogations. Further to earlier Supreme Court jurisprudence regarding an individual’s constitutional right to counsel, an accused is permitted to consult a lawyer prior to police questioning. Police must refrain from questioning the individual until that individual has had an opportunity to consult a lawyer. …

Safety First: The Hidden Curriculum Of Whiteness In Race-Conscious Professional Learning, James Noonan, Ashley Carey, Hilary Lustick, Peter Piazza Jan 2024

Safety First: The Hidden Curriculum Of Whiteness In Race-Conscious Professional Learning, James Noonan, Ashley Carey, Hilary Lustick, Peter Piazza

Education Faculty Publications

Applying the analytic lens of critical whiteness, we examine the relationship between facilitation structures and the quality of racial dialogue in educator professional development. We draw on data from a five-session virtual ‘antiracist reading group’ in a rapidly diversifying U.S. district, convened and facilitated by a White district leader. Observed discussions tended towards the superficial and did little to challenge participants’ existing worldviews. We argue that the leader’s facilitation decisions characterised a ‘hidden curriculum’ of safety and comfort that inhibited participants’ development. These moves were further shaped by and reified persistent manifestations of whiteness. We offer implications for the facilitation …
