Green and sustainable synthesis of silver nanowires using batch and millifluidic processes and their applications in conductive inks
(2023-05)
This dissertation focuses on the solution-based synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) silver nanostructures (mainly silver nanowires) using green, sustainable, and cost-efficient materials and processes, and application of 1D ...
Identifying environmental and forensics aspects of human spaceflight mishaps through extreme case study analysis: Lessons for future human spaceflight mishap investigators and technical authorities
(2022-12)
This study is an in-depth analysis and case study of human spaceflight fatalities, studying the forensic data, engineering data, and spaceflight environment that separates spaceflight mishaps when compared to other mishaps, ...
Design and intracellular trafficking of poly(L-lysine)-grafted-poly(ethylene glycol) fiberless adenoviral gene delivery vector
(2020-07)
The first gene therapy clinical trials were started nearly 30 years ago, but the field only now seems to be on the verge of widespread adoption. Safe and efficient gene delivery, however, is still a major obstacle and is ...

Investigation into biodegradability of ionic liquids employing active site models
(2020-07)
Ionic liquids have the potential for driving industrial processes in a sustainable fashion due to their environmentally benign characteristics like inherent low vapor pressure and flammability. Their extremely low vapor ...
Identity and home in three Caribbean authors
(2020-07)
The search for identity is a major theme in modern literature. It is particularly prevalent in societies that have historically been colonized where the colonizer has sabotaged the values of the colonized that are at the ...
Perceived competence of paraprofessionals in elementary physical education
(2020-07)
The purpose of the study was to develop a preliminary instrument to ascertain the perceived competence, autonomy, and relatedness of special education paraprofessionals in elementary physical education. The Physical Education ...
Gold-silicide eutectic dynamics of mesotextured materials and their optical properties
(2022-05)
Meso scaled pyramidal and inverse pyramidal structures, hereon referred to as Mesopyramids and Inverse Mesopyramids, are observed on Si[100] post annealing of a tri-layer of gold and silicon thin films. The structures are ...
