Italian Colonization Of Ethiopia And Il Duce’S Rhetoric ​, Isabella Paluzzi Steele May 2026

Italian Colonization Of Ethiopia And Il Duce’S Rhetoric ​, Isabella Paluzzi Steele

Undergraduate Research and Engagement Symposium

My project analyzes the narratives constructed by Benito Mussolini about Italian colonization of Ethiopia in Fascist Italy. Mussolini's narratives regarding colonization in Ethiopia fall into narrative categories: 1. the narrative of Fascist Italy as a newly reborn Roman Empire, and 2. the narrative of Fascist Italy as racially superior to Ethiopians which made a civilizing mission necessary to Mussolini. Mussolini’s verbal narratives and their diffusion should be examined to gain a clearer understanding of what was shown to the Italian public so there is an understanding of the dissonance between official policies and proclamations and public sentiment.

Quantum Algorithms For Discrete And Combinatorial Optimization, Gloria Oppong May 2026

Quantum Algorithms For Discrete And Combinatorial Optimization, Gloria Oppong

UTC Spring Research and Arts Conference

This study explores quantum computing for combinatorial optimization, focusing on the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). Using Qiskit, the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) is implemented on simulators and quantum hardware, and compared with classical optimization using Gurobi. TSP instances are encoded as Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problems derived from the Miller–Tucker–Zemlin formulation, with quadratic penalties enforcing degree and subtour constraints. Results indicate that QAOA consistently generates feasible tours, but classical branch-and-bound methods achieve better solution quality and runtime. On Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices, performance degrades with problem size due to sensitivity to parameter tuning, penalty scaling, and hardware …


Digitization And Curation Of The Fungal Collections At The University Of Tennessee At Chattanooga, Seth N. Ledbetter, Ana Currie, J. Hill Craddock May 2026

Digitization And Curation Of The Fungal Collections At The University Of Tennessee At Chattanooga, Seth N. Ledbetter, Ana Currie, J. Hill Craddock

UTC Spring Research and Arts Conference

The Natural History Museum of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UCHT:F) houses approximately 4,400 fungal specimens, including a recently donated collection from Austin Peay State University. We are establishing standardized protocols for ongoing curatorial practice at UCHT:F. Digitization workflow adheres directly to iDigBio and Symbiota best practices following standardized Darwin Core data capture, imaging of specimen packets and labels, taxonomic updating, georeferencing, and online publication of records in MyCoPortal, the Mycology Collections data Portal. Targeted sampling in under sampled Tennessee counties is driven by analysis of MyCoPortal data. Voucher specimens associated with prior UTC undergraduate research, including mycological surveys …


Science And Art Panel: Moderator's Introduction, Christopher Cox May 2026

Science And Art Panel: Moderator's Introduction, Christopher Cox

UTC Spring Research and Arts Conference

Science and art are often treated as separate intellectual traditions, yet they share deep cognitive foundations — observation, pattern recognition, and iterative refinement — and have strengthened one another throughout history. Art provides a sensory bridge that makes the invisible phenomena of science tangible, while scientific advancement continually expands the creative palette available to artists through new materials, tools, and technologies. In a professional landscape that tends to silo expertise, individuals who can navigate both the empirical and the expressive — polymaths, in the classical sense — are uniquely positioned to drive innovation.

This panel is composed of five UTC …

Subsurface Delineation Of Coal Combustion Residuals Using Multiple Geophysical Methods, Eric Hageman, Adam Rak, Thomas Jordan, Kate Mckinley May 2026

Subsurface Delineation Of Coal Combustion Residuals Using Multiple Geophysical Methods, Eric Hageman, Adam Rak, Thomas Jordan, Kate Mckinley

World of Coal Ash Proceedings

Geophysical techniques provide alternative methods of Coal Combustion Residual (CCR) delineation and characterization to supplement more invasive boring programs used for beneficial reuse planning. A demonstration project was designed to characterize the electromagnetic and seismic stratigraphy of CCR material and test the effectiveness of three geophysical techniques: Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI), Transient Electromagnetic (TEM) induction, and Multi-channel Analysis of Surface Wave (MASW). The demonstration project was completed at a dry-stack CCR unit containing a variety of CCR ash, gypsum, and thin layers of drainage aggregate (limestone). During a single-day deployment, several geophysical survey tests were conducted in specific areas of …
