Scholars have studied issues of public relations evaluation and encroachment separately, yet none have previously examined perceptions about evaluation and encroachment together in applied settings. This study features responses obtained...
High Temperature superconductors (HTS) are the only way to achieve elds with superconducting magnets higher than the 25 T of Low Temperature Superconductors (LTS). No-Insulation (NI) REBCO magnets using REBa2Cu3Ox as the superconductor...
The 14-3-3 family of proteins is implicated in the regulation of a broad range of key neuronal processes. Previous human and animal studies have provided evidence for an association between 14-3-3 proteins and schizophrenia. Here, I...
The aim of this Honors project is to provide information to increase the knowledge of disaster preparedness among immigrants for whom English is a second language and who are English language learners. Natural disasters are defined as...
Puerilia: or, Amusements for the young, consisting of a collection of songs, adapted to the fancies & capacities of those of tender years, and taken from their usual diversions and employments; also on subjects of a more elevated nature; divided into three parts, viz. I. Songs for little misses. II. Songs for young masters. III. Songs on divine, moral, and other subjects ..
Aspects of global change - specifically, elevated soil nitrogen deposition and warming - are resulting in significant changes in native plant communities. These effects can be direct through changes in productivity, or indirect through...
In recent years, NASA has become interested in densified fuels such as solid hydrogen. A change from liquid to solid-state fuel storage would result in an approximately 15% smaller onboard fuel tank, and thus a lower gross vehicle lift...
Clustering is an essential data mining tool that aims to discover inherent cluster structure in data. As such, the study of clusterability, which evaluates whether data possesses such structure, is an integral part of cluster analysis....
Over the past 40 years radiative transfer models have consistently under-predicted the amount of solar absorption by clouds. Estimates of the size of this discrepancy at the beginning of its discovery were ~10 W/m^2, but in 1995 jumped...
The Oregon Bach Festival completed its thirty-fifth season of performances in Eugene, Oregon on Sunday, July 11, 2004. Beginning as a summer school program organized by Royce Saltzman in 1970 at the University of Oregon, the Festival's...
This piece is composed for the Florida State University Electric Chamber Orchestra (EChO). Being an entirely electronic ensemble, it is an area very few composers are accustomed to. EChO is comprised of entirely electric instruments with...
Exhibit Catalog from the exhibit The New Objectivity showing works from the artist Duane Hanson and a description of them and the creative processes and connections.
Evolutionary theory is considered by many to be an important cornerstone to the entire discipline to biology. Despite its recognized importance by biologists, public understanding of evolution is considered to be woefully lacking. There...
This thesis presents a new architecture for improving the interactivity and responsiveness of massively multiplayer on-line games. In order to aide in the quick delivery of game updates generated by a game client, this thesis presents a...
Heparin does not appear to improve overall outcomes when used for ischemic stroke or within the first 2 weeks of a cardioembolic stroke. (SOR B, extrapolated from meta-analyses of multiple heparinoids.)
In 1998, a group of radical media makers and social justice activists opened the Independent Media Center in an abandoned storefront in downtown Seattle to provide street level news coverage of a large-scale mobilization protest against...
In eukaryotes, damaged or unneeded proteins are typically degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. In this system, the protein substrate is often first covalently modified with a chain of ubiquitin polypeptides. This chain serves as...
Researchers at the CPS have been conducting a longitudinal study of how Florida College System (FCS) institutions have implemented developmental education reform (SB 1720) on their campuses. As a part of this research report, CPS...
Oxytocin (OXT) is a pleiotropic regulator of physiology and behavior. An emerging body of evidence demonstrates a role for OXT in the transition to postnatal life of the infant. To identify potential sites of OXT action via the OXT...
The hydraulic analogy for electrical circuits is a well-known, if limited, model for understanding potential and current. The work described in this thesis extends this analogy to chemical reactions by constructing apparatuses that model...
An animal restraining harness or jacket and a method of use thereof, for protecting the shoulder and upper abdomen when experimental/surgical procedures are performed and when the experimental/surgical sites must be protected from biting...
The official nosology of psychiatric disorders (DSM-5) includes a primarily dimensional operationalization of personality pathology, the Alternative Model for Personality Disorders (AMPD), in its latest edition. The present study...
Electric power lines are subject to disturbances such as severe weather conditions, contact with animals, falling trees, human accidents, equipment malfunction, etc. These catastrophic events can trigger an electrical fault, which...
One of the heritages of Romanticism is the concept of song as Lied, a song in which voice and piano have equal responsibility in conveying the deepest meaning of a poem. Brazilian classical composers have a particular attraction for this...
Health condition monitoring and failure detection play a crucial role in estimating the performance of solar panels such as degradation trend over time and occurrence of failures. Monitoring and detecting significant degradation can help...
