Biogeography and Conservation of Reptilian Diversity in West Indonesia
(2022-04-19)
Uncovering and analyzing the distributional patterns of species across the landscape is central to biogeography, but these same patterns and explanations for those patterns are also critical to proper conservation and ...
THIS IS AMERICA: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL EXPLORATION INTO THE EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN ATTENDING A PREDOMINANTLY WHITE UNIVERSITY WHILE ON ACADEMIC PROBATION
(2020-08-04)
Purpose: The purpose of this investigation was to gain a more comprehensive understanding of educational experiences of eight African American (AA) men on academic probation, while attending a predominantly White college ...
IMPROVING THE IMPINGEMENT COLD PLATE THERMAL DESIGN USING NUMERICAL AND ANALYTICAL APPROACH
(2021-05-15)
Conventional cooling methods for an IC chip uses heat spreader to transfer heat from the chip end of the spreader to the opposite end of the spreader which then uses air or water to remove heat and thereby maintaining the ...
CORRELATION AND EFFECT OF PROCESS PARAMETERS ON THE PROPERTIES OF INCONEL 718 PARTS FABRICATED BY SELECTIVE LASER MELTING USING RESPONSE SURFACE METHOD
(2020-08-10)
Inconel 718 (i.e., IN718) is a nickel-based superalloy that exhibits outstanding tensile and impact-resistant properties, along with good high-temperature corrosion resistance. However, the machinability is poor due to the ...
NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF IMMERSION COOLING ON A SERVER USING AL2O3/MINERAL OIL NANOFLUID
(2020-08-10)
In the current world, technology has developed significantly, with a massive processing and storage of data, resulting in the high increase in Power Density and Heat Generation of servers, computers and its components in ...
Evaluating the Accuracy of Gaze Detection for Moving Character
(2020-08-03)
Joint attention, where a caregiver and an infant follow each other’s eye gaze plays an important role in the learning of language for new-born infants. To study joint attention, it is required to record and analyze the ...
Classification of Factual and Non-Factual Statements Using Adversarially Trained LSTM Networks
(2020-06-08)
Being able to determine which statements are factual and therefore likely candidates for further verification is a key value-add in any automated fact-checking system. For this task, it has been shown that LSTMs outperform ...
Impacts of landscape and past climate on patterns of hybridization and genetic diversity in Plestiodon tetragrammus and P. multivirgatus
(2021-03-26)
Past hybridization plays an important role in evolution of taxa. We use multiple phylogenetic approaches including single gene sequencing and high-through put sequencing to address the effects of past hybridization in the ...
Exploring the Relationship between Exposure to Intimate Partner Violence and an Emotional-Behavioral Disability among Children Involved in the Child Welfare System
(2020-05-14)
This three-article dissertation examines the relationship between exposure to IPV and having an emotional-behavioral disability (EBD) among children in the child welfare system. The first article is a scoping review of the ...
Modelling PM2.5 concentrations and spatial correlation with weather conditions and adult asthma in north Texas in 2014
(2020-05-29)
The questions to be answered by this study are whether weather conditions correlate with PM2.5 concentrations, and whether there is a correlation between asthma-related hospital admissions and PM2.5 concentrations. The ...
