DEVELOPMENT OF CHOLESTEATOMA MODEL, SURGICAL TREATMENT, AND CRITERIA FOR DISEASE SEVERITY
(2018-05)
Chapter 1:
Cholesteatoma is a middle ear disease characterized by a cystic lesion that grows from the tympanic membrane. There are several theories as to the cause of the disease, though the most prominent cause is ...
Heuristic Approach to Network Recovery
(2018-05-11)
This study addresses optimization modeling for recovery of a transportation system after a major disaster. In particular, a novel metric based on the shape of the recovery curve is introduced as the objective to minimize. ...
Consideration of Lie Symmetry Groups in Computational Fluid Dynamics
(2018)
Lie symmetries are fundamental properties of differential equations that are often not actively considered in construction of numerical schemes relevant to computational fluid dynamics (CFD). While many of these numerical ...
Physiological Responses to a Single Bout of Resistance Exercise: Practical vs Controlled Blood Flow Restriction
(2018-05-11)
Blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise has been used to induce increases in muscle size and strength at relatively low exercise intensities. The technique requires the application of a restriction device to reduce blood ...
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TEACHER BELIEFS ABOUT RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION AND STUDENT OUTCOMES: AN ATTEMPT TO GAIN TEACHER BUY IN AND INCREASE STUDENT OUTCOMES
(2018)
Response to Intervention (RtI) is a tiered system of supports designed to offer early prevention services, blend general and special education services, focus on research-based strategies, and emphasize data-based decisions. ...
The Soubrette Character as an Agent of Social Change in 18th and 19th Century Opera Buffa and Singspiel
(2018-05-11)
The secondary female role of lower class status in comic opera, designated by the term soubrette, is often given a diminutive value to match her diminutive name ending. As a result, the origins of the soubrette figure and ...
TYPE-II QUANTUM WELL HOT CARRIER SOLAR CELLS
(2018-12-14)
Hot carrier solar cells are a third generation photovoltaic technology, which aims to increase power conversion efficiency of solar cells beyond the fundamental Shockley-Queisser limit (33%). A major source of loss in ...
Fabrication of improved composite laminates by using a sliding magnetic tool during wet layup/vacuum bagging
(2018-05-11)
A magnetic lift that utilizes magnetic polarization to create “on” and “off” conditions is used to easily and safely apply consolidation pressure on E-glass/epoxy laminates fabricated using the wet layup/vacuum bagging ...
Structural analysis of a naturally fractured carbonate field in the south-east Gulf of Mexico.
(2018-05)
Fractured carbonates produce more than 85% of hydrocarbon production in Mexico. A large number of the producing fields are located in the South Gulf Salt Province (SGSP) in Campeche Bay within the Upper Jurassic Kimmeridgian ...
Effectiveness of Peer Coaching to Enhance Pre-Service Teachers' Self-Efficacy toward Science Instruction and Pedagogy Content Knowledge
(2018-08-07)
Peer coaching, specifically its role in influencing pedagogical content knowledge and self-efficacy of pre-service teachers (PSTs) regarding teaching science in early education is examined. First, this study proposes a ...
