Numerical Characterization of Ultrasound Elastography for the Early Detection of Deep Tissue Injuries
DownloadFall 2014
Deep tissue injuries - casually termed "bedsores" or "pressure ulcers" - are a type of wound often suffered as secondary injuries in persons with reduced mobility such as those with spinal cord injuries, the elderly, and people with multiple sclerosis. Deep tissue injuries form when excess...

As the demand for oil and gas resources increases pipeline construction pushes further into the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions. Consequently, these buried pipelines suffer much harsh environmental and complex loading conditions. Moreover, to increase the transporting efficiency, larger size pipes...

Understanding where and when populations occur is the first step to conservation and maintenance of biodiversity. Where human land-use overlaps with populations of conservation concern, population loss may occur, potentially reducing long-term persistence of species, particularly for those that...

An examination of linking and blocking procedures for use in deflection cantilever array-based protein detection
DownloadFall 2011
In this project common linking and blocking procedures were examined for use in multiplexed deflection cantilever array-based detection of proteins. A human interferon gamma (INF-γ) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the linking and blocking...

Optimization, adaptation and application of protein misfolding cyclic amplification to detection of prions in blood plasma
DownloadFall 2010
The PMCA assay was optimized for adaptation to low level detection of PrPSc in hamster plasma. Evaluation of numerous key variables of the PMCA assay led to an optimized protocol capable of ~3 log10 amplification after 32 cycles (two 16 hour rounds). When commercially purchased normal hamster...

Multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) system, due to its large channel capacity and high reliability, has been widely studied in numerous existing work. It has a lot of applications in reality, e.g., 3GPP and LTE standards. These advantages owes to the understanding of the MIMO channel, which shows the...

Design and Implementation of Chipless RFID-Based Monitoring Sensor System for Coated Metallic Structures' Integrity
DownloadFall 2020
This thesis work presents structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques for coated-metallic structures based on Chipless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. The structures of interest for this study include pipelines for crude oil transportation and storage tanks (or terminals). The...
