Applications of nonautonomous infinite-dimensional systems control theory for parabolic PDEs
DownloadFall 2013
Parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are used as models of transport-reaction phenomena in a variety of different industrial chemical and materials engineering processes, and can yield precise descriptions of process variables with complex temporal and spatially dependent system...

The Crowsnest Pass area, located in the Rocky Mountain foothills of the Canadian Cordillera, provides an exceptional example of a thin-skinned thrust belt from which the deformational history can be determined. Use of LiDAR (light detection and ranging) data, acquired by high-resolution remote...

Localization of Global Discourse and the Breakdown of the Washington Consensus (WC): A Case Study of Korean Higher Education Reform (1993-2012)
DownloadFall 2015
In my dissertation paper, I sought the political implications of neo-liberal education reform with the case of recent Korean higher education reforms. I first explored the macro-causal relationship of neo-liberal higher education reform in transnational social relations, and then the political...

The Effect of Conventional Elastomers on Force and Moment of a Self-Ligating Orthodontic Bracket with Second-Order Angulation in the Dry and Wet States evaluated through a new 3D Friction Device
DownloadSpring 2013
Objective: A new three-dimensional friction device was used to investigate the effect of conventional elastomers on force and moment of a self-ligating orthodontic bracket with second-order angulation during a simulated retraction. Methods: An 0.018x0.025-in stainless steel archwire was drawn...

Braces are commonly used to correct misalignments or malocclusions in the mouth. One particular orthodontic treatment utilizes archwire rotation to control the anterior inclination of a tooth and motion is achieved through the interaction of a rectangular archwire within the rectangular bracket...

Deformation of the orthodontic bracket upon wire engagement may result in torque dissipation within the bracket rather than transmission to the tooth and its supporting structures. The purpose of this study was: 1) quantify the amount of torque expression and 2) quantify any deformation as a...

Using two- and three-dimensional kinematic analysis to compare functional outcomes in patients who have undergone facial reanimation surgery
DownloadFall 2010
The current study was designed to: (1) compare the sensitivity of a 2-dimensional video-based system with a 3-dimensional optical system, and (2) investigate movement on the affected and unaffected side of the face during the production of various functional movement tasks in 5 patients who had...
