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...

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,...

Thermophysical Properties Measurement of Liquid Al and Al-Cu by the Discharge Crucible Method
DownloadFall 2020
The demand to develop Materials Genomics and Integrated Materials Computation requires the availability of high temperature property data of liquid metals. High temperature metallurgical processes, such as refining, casting, welding and additive manufacturing, can be optimized and operate more...

The centrifugal particle mass analyzer (CPMA)-electrometer system has been proposed as an alternative method of calibration for devices that measure black carbon. This system is proposed to replace the current calibration standard of NIOSH 5040. The repeatability and intermediate precision of the...

Improving Measurements of the Mixing State and Mass Concentration of Particulate Emissions from Aircraft Engines
DownloadSpring 2016
This research is focused towards improving techniques used to measure particulate emissions from aircraft engines, on two fronts: first, to characterize and quantify the mixing state of particulate emissions; and second, to calibrate black carbon mass instruments with a traceable mass...

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...
