Exploring Noise Induced Extreme Events In Neuronal Oscillators Networks And Machine Learning Forecasts, Hariharan S Mr

Theses and Dissertations

This doctoral dissertation comprehensively investigates the underexplored phenomenon of noise-induced extreme events (EE). The word “extreme” is accompanied by an occurring “event” when the deviation is extreme or higher than that of regular occurrences. These extreme occurrences are rare, abrupt, sudden, and irregular, often causing a profound impact on the system and its surroundings. Tsunami, earthquakes, solar flares, and tornadoes are such events that do not occur often but still significantly cause damage to mankind. This thesis particularly focuses on EE in neuronal systems where sudden synchronization can trigger seizures, tremors, and strokes which serve as classic examples of such …

Matter Of Stuyvesant Town-Peter Cooper Village Tenants Association V. New York State Division Of Housing And Community Renewal

All Decisions

The First Department affirmed the Supreme Court's denial of the tenants' Article 78 petition challenging DHCR's grant of Major Capital Improvement (MCI) rent increases for a 2014 intercom replacement. The court deferred to DHCR's interpretation of former Rent Stabilization Code § 2522.4, which allows an MCI increase even within the useful life of an improvement if an MCI increase was not previously granted for that specific improvement. Finding DHCR's long-standing interpretation rational and consistent with precedent, the court concluded that the agency's determination was not arbitrary and capricious.

Nurse-Led Transformation: Evaluating The Impact Of A Professional Development Intervention On Interprofessional Collaboration, Amanda Kay Garey

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) is critical in improving positive patient outcomes and achieving the quadruple aim of enhancing patient experience, improving population health, reducing costs, and improving the work-life balance of healthcare providers. Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) effectively enhances the patient experience and healthcare quality (McGuier et al., 2021). According to the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC), critical drivers for the ongoing growth of developing interprofessional collaborative practice include the need to empower the interprofessional (IPE) community with the best available evidence and research related to IPE and collaborative practice, conduct a continuous review of standard terms for competence, competency, and competency framework, …

Optimizing Workplaces And Patient Outcomes: Implementing Kotter’S Change Model, Jacquelyn Smith, Brandy L. Simpler, Kasey Chance

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

Purpose: Healthcare settings continue to experience unique challenges in maintaining healthy working environments while keeping patient care and quality a top priority (Campbell, 2020). Leaders in healthcare strive to develop and maintain healthy working environments and patient outcomes but continue to fall short of these goals (Pechacek et al., 2022). The Kotter Change Model (KCM) provides an organized process that leaders can use to inform and guide healthcare teams during change implementation (Kotter, 1995). Managing change implementation in healthcare settings is no easy task, especially in areas of high stress and staffing shortages. Organized change processes, like KCM, can improve …

Impact Of Shift Duty On Physical And Social Well-Being Of Nurses In Southwest Nigeria, Deborah Tolulope Esan, Temitope Francess Oladokun

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

Night and weekend shifts are a complex issue that has significant impact on both nurses and their family. Although shift work is inevitable for nurses, shift duties (night and weekend) could impair family functions. Thus, this study examined the perceived impact of night and weekend shifts on physical and social well-being of nurses working in a multi-system hospital in South-west, Nigeria. The study employed a descriptive cross-sectional study design. All available Nurses, in all the major clinical area of the hospital were recruited for the study. A total of 95 nurses took part in the survey. Data collection was by …

The Impacts Of Healthy Work Environments On Retention And Well-Being Of The Nursing Workforce, Benita N. Chatmon, Ahnyel Jones-Burkes, Alison H. Davis

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

Background: The persistent nurse shortage is a critical nationwide concern with implications for healthcare and patient outcomes. Without workforce expansion, this crisis will intensify. Limited research focuses on nurse retention, particularly in Louisiana.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate factors influencing the retention and well-being of Licensed Practical and Registered nurses in Louisiana. The objective was to inform the development of effective retention strategies.

Research Question: What is the relationship between a nurse's work environment and intent to leave the profession?

Method: Employing a quantitative, descriptive approach, this research encompassed a sample of 1,209 nurses hailing from Louisiana. The research …

Tunable Gold Nanoparticle Synthesis Using Microfluidic Flow Focusing Enabled By Reusable 3d-Printed Multimaterial Connectors, Muhammad Mubashar Saeed, Bilal Javed, Eadaoin Carthy, Nicholas Dunne, David Kinahan

Research Outputs: 2025-Present

The design and fabrication of reusable, cost-effective, and leakage-resistant microfluidic connectors using a commercial multi-material 3D printer (Connex Objet 3D, Tri-Tech 3D, UK) is reported. The connectors, comprising plugs, adapters, and ports, were fabricated from VeroClear™ (rigid polymer) and incorporated TangoBlack (elastomeric soft polymer) as integrated ferrules and gaskets. This multi-material approach enabled the attachment of the connectors using physical locking mechanisms; thus eliminating the need for adhesives and so enabling reusability without mechanical failure. These 3D printed plugs and ports are demonstrated by the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in a HEPES-mediated microfluidic system under different flow rate ratios …
