Investigation of Tethered System for Creating Artificial Gravity
(2018)
Interplanetary journeys are long; taking anywhere between 6 months to a few years. Studies performed with astronauts in the various space missions have provided insights on adverse effects of microgravity on the human body. ...
Fabrication and Characterization of Porous CNF/PDMS Nanocomposite for Sensing Application
(2018-08-02)
Electrically conductive polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomer-based materials are growing as one of the critical needs for the emerging field of wearable electronics due to its high elastic limits and good biocompatibility. ...
Virtual Measurement of Valve Performance and its Application in Energy Efficiency Improvements
(2018-12)
For heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning engineers, the measurement of system performance is a vital step in ensuring that the system in use is functioning at its optimal functionality. The measurement of water flow ...
Efficient Computational Approaches for Treatment of Transformed Path Integrals
(2018-12-14)
In this thesis, efficient computational approaches for treatment of transformed path integrals (TPIs) are proposed. The TPI-based method allows us to calculate the time evolution probability density functions (PDFs) using ...

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 ...
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 ...
