External sensors for the feedback control of functional electrical stimulation assisted walking
DownloadFall 2010
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a rehabilitative technology that can be used to improve walking in individuals with mobility impairments due to neurologic injury or disease. Feedback is essential for efficient FES-assisted walking. The overall goal of my project was to investigate...

On a perfect hydrogen-terminated Si(100)-2x1 surface, each surface silicon atom is capped with exactly one atom of hydrogen. When one of the capping hydrogen atoms is removed, the now unsatisfied orbital of the underlying silicon atom is exposed at that site. This site is better known as a...

Serpe, Michael J., Xu, Wenwen, Gao, Yongfeng
Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgel-based free-standing etalons have been developed by fabricating etalons on a solid support that has been coated with a sacrificial polymer layer. Therefore, the etalon could be easily removed from the solid substrate upon...

Heavy metals in bottom sediments of the mainstem Athabasca river system in the AOSERP study area
Download1978
Dredged sediments and sediment cores were collected from sites along the Athabasca River system from between Fort McMurray and the confluence of Riviere des Rochers with the Slave River. A selected sample suite representing all of the drainage units and textural variations was analysed by...

Identifying Factors that Influence the Sustainability of a Gravity-Fed Water System in Rural Haiti
DownloadSpring 2020
Background: The sustainability of water supply systems in rural, low resource settings is imperative to address as approximately 25% of water systems fail within four years of installation. Due to a long history of political instability, government corruption, countless natural disasters, and...
