Fall 2023
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us that our infection prevention and control (IPC) knowledge has some glaring gaps on what best ways to treat dental patients, leading to a flurry of research to understand the best mitigation strategies to reduce aerosols. One of these strategies...

Selective ring opening of naphthenic molecules is a preferred reaction to increase cetane number of fuels, and it should result in products with no loss in molecular weight and longer alkyl side chains. Benzocyclopentane (indan) ring opening was studied under hydrogen atmospheric pressure at 609...

Characterization of Particulate Matter Morphology and Volatility for Two Direct-Injection Engines
DownloadFall 2015
Particulate matter emitted from two direct injection engines has been characterized by morphology, volatility, mass-mobility exponent, effective density, and size distribution using tandem measurements from a centrifugal particle mass analyzer (CPMA) and differential mobility analyzers (DMA). The...

Development of Empirical Models to Predict Deposition of Aerosols in the Extrathoracic Airways of Children
DownloadSpring 2012
The experimental studies described in this thesis were performed with the goal of measuring deposition of aerosols, inhaled either nasally or orally, in the extrathoracic airways of children in different age groups. We pursued in vitro methods and characterized the deposition of aerosols in the...

Recently, considerable research has been conducted into solid-acid catalyzed carbonylation of dimethyl ether (DME) to methyl acetate (MeOAc), which can be further used for the iodine-free production of ethanol or acetic acid. The zeolite mordenite (H-MOR) is known as a potential catalyst but is...

Evaluation of Mask and Mask Material Suitability for COVID-19 Transmission Protection and Influence of Face Velocity and Exhaled Breath Condensate on Filtration Efficiency
DownloadSpring 2022
Facemask use has been a key public health measure in response to the SARS CoV-2 pandemic; they are used to reduce airborne transmission of the disease amongst the public. The facemasks used by the public are non-medical in nature and therefore are not regulated like medical masks. Cloth masks,...
