Deinking Printed Plastic Using Nonionic Surfactant and Cationic Polymer
(2021-08-05)Plastic recycling has been an ongoing conversation amongst many environmentalists who aim to reduce consumption and use of plastic. Prior to reducing plastic use, it is crucial to consider the current process of recycling ... -
Delinearization of Polyhedral Abstractions to Characterize Quantum Assembly
(2021-12)Increasingly complex quantum algorithms are designed in a hardware-agnostic fashion, implemented leveraging high-level programming languages, and then lowered to simpler sequences of quantum operations (gates) using a ... -
Deltaic Sedimentation and Stratigraphy of the Late Cretaceous Frontier Formation in the Southeast Bighorn Basin, Wyoming
(2019-05-10)Regional subsurface mapping of the Cretaceous Frontier Formation indicates that it was deposited as discrete deltaic lobes within the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway (KWIS). The source of sediment was to the west and ... -
Delving deeper into plant assembly: determine the role of intraspecific diversity across space and time to affect carbon dynamics in natural and managed systems
(2019-05-11)Understanding the key ecological processes contributing towards the spatial-temporal variation in intra-specific diversity of commonly occurring species, especially during early colonization events, can be key to predict ... -
Demands, Resources, and Outcomes for College Students with Children
(2019-08-01)Even as a growing population, college students with children continue to be underrepresented in research. This is unfortunate because compared to their peers without children, they are more likely to leave college without ... -
DENSITY CHANGES AND COMPOSITIONAL PATH DURING CO2 INJECTION
(2016-12-16)CO2 EOR has been used for a couple of decades as it improves oil recovery. With more than 50% of original oil in place (OOIP) remaining inside reservoir after primary and secondary stage, more and more companies start to ... -
Depositional History and Provenance Analysis of the Permian-Aged Garber Sandstone, Central Oklahoma
(2023-05)The Lower Permian Kungurian (Leonardian) Garber Sandstone records a time of profound climatic and tectonic transition in central Pangea with the collapse of an icehouse climate, inception of Pangean monsoonal circulation, ... -
Depression and aggression in Chinese migrant adolescents: the moderating role of family and peer support
(2021-12)The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between depression and aggression among Chinese migrant adolescents. The moderating roles of family and peer support were also tested separately. Participants were ... -
The Design and Adaptation of an Experimental Test Setup to Characterize Metal Spring Energized Seals
(2023-08-04)Fluid sealing technology is critical to the performance and longevity of equipment in a variety of industries. They prevent harmful fluids from being released into the environment, especially in the case of the oil and gas ... -
Design and Analysis of a Novel Freeze Desalination System for Treatment of Oil and Gas Produced Water
(2021-05-14)Freeze desalination is an alternative technology that has received a lot of attention due to several advantages. Among these, the lower energy consumption and low operation temperature are the most important ones. The ... -
Design And Construction of A Novel Drilling Rig For The Investigation of Hard Rock Drilling for Super-Hot Enhanced Geothermal System Development
(2024-05-11)The pursuit of sustainable energy solutions in the face of increasing global demand has fueled interest in super-hot Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS). These systems tap into vast, recoverable geothermal energy potential ... -
Design and construction technology in Mexican social housing at the end of the 20th century.
(2022)This paper examines the role of construction systems in the success and failure of the Mexican government and the private sector in providing housing for the working class at the end of the 20th century. In this study, ... -
The design and development of a 3D printer compatible bioreactor for tendon tissue engineering
(2016-12)Tendon and ligament tissue engineering aims to provide an alternative tissue graft for patients with acute injuries that require surgical intervention. Alternatives are necessary due to limited availability of allografts ... -
Design and development of a Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D printer for potential biomedical engineering applications.
(2023-05)An additive manufacturing method called Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) involves heating material particles to bond them together. Each two-dimensional layer is selectively sintered in the fabrication piston until the part ... -
The Design and Development of a Survey Instrument to Measure Factors that Influence Choice Goals of Forensic Science Majors
(2016-12)Colleges and universities are encouraged to strengthen forensic science programs to combat that shortage of highly educated and trained forensic scientists entering the field. To meet these demands and expectations, ... -
Design and fabrication of a 3D printed hybrid implant for temporomandibular joint regeneration
(2021)Patients suffering from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders have difficulties performing trivial activities such as chewing, yawning, and even laughing. In severe cases, the pain is unbearable and clinical care is ... -
