Alternative Methods and Improvements to Current Delivery of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure for Treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea
DownloadFall 2021
For adults, the standard treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the delivery of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) through nasal/facial masks. For children, CPAP therapy is used if adenotonsillectomy is not a viable option or if OSA persists after surgery. By acting as a pneumatic...

Hernandez Peralta, Rodrigo Arturo
The objective of this research was to examine the cold temperature limitation of the elastomeric material currently used in railcar airbrake glad-hand gaskets. A test plan to assess gasket material performance was designed based on gasket operating conditions and material properties. Standards,...

Advances on Fabrication and Application of Through Silicon Via for Radio Frequency Circuits
DownloadSpring 2019
Through silicon via (TSV) has been considered as an astonishing milestone in the evolution of three-dimensional integrated circuit (3D IC), because of its exclusive and pivotal function of providing signal exchanging paths in the horizontal direction to stacked layers efficiently. Unfortunately,...
