On the impact of drought-induced abiotic stress on the composition of Douglas-fir lignin for valorization
DownloadFall 2022
Rising interest in the transition to renewable energy, materials, and chemicals ushers biorefining strategies that effectively utilize all components of lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks. Concurrently, more frequent and severe drought brought on by accelerating climate change pose questions...

Fall 2015
Hydrocarbon-based liquid crystal domains have been identified in unreacted heavy fractions of petroleum from Athabasca bitumen and other hydrocarbon resources worldwide. These liquid crystal domains have also been shown to transfer from the hydrocarbon-rich phase to the water-rich phase during...

One-step fabrication of crystalline TiO2 nanotubualr arrays and relevant temperature influences
DownloadSpring 2012
TiO2 nanotube arrays fabricated through anodization have attracted significant interest and have been widely investigated due to their great potential for many applications related to the solar energy utilization for, e. g. photoelectrochemical water splitting, degradation of pollutants and solar...

Optically mediated thermal response of Quartz Tuning Forks modified with a silicon bridge for bolometric and atmospheric sensing through Photothermal Spectroscopy
DownloadSpring 2019
Due to the inherent benefits offered by the Quartz Tuning Fork (QTF) platform, QTFs have found utility in a variety of scientific applications to include, but not limited to spectroscopy, microscopy, and atmospheric sensing. It is from the intersection of these applications that the proceeding...

Fall 2014
The presence of alternans, which is a persistent alternation in the cardiac action potential duration, has been linked to the onset of ventricular arrhythmia, which may lead to sudden cardiac death. In this thesis, we examine the problem of alternans annihilation in a 1D cable of cardiac cells...

Spring 2018
The objective of this thesis is to design an optimal LQ-boundary controller for SCR, which is a model of coupled parabolic-hyperbolic PDEs with an ODE. The problem is a boundary control one because the manipulated variable u is the ammonia gas at the inlet (z = 0).Our purpose is to nd an optimal...
