Self-Circumference of Rotors
(University of Texas at ArlingtonDepartment of Mathematics, 1996)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: The law of cosines from trigonometry is used to obtain elliptic integrals of the second kind to calculate the "self-circumference" of a Reuleaux triangle and the ... -
Self-Compassion and Online Student Connectedness as Protective Factors against Stress and Loneliness in Emerging Adulthood
(2023-05-04)The current state of US youth and emerging adult mental health is described as a crisis that the COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated (US Office of the Surgeon General, 2021). This dissertation examined whether daily ... -
Self-Consistent Effects of the Recirculating Plasmapshere on the Development of Storm Time Dynamics in the Inner Magnetosphere.
(2023-06-07)The near Earth space environment is a highly coupled system. The Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) interacts with the magnetosphere in myriad ways depend on the orientation of the IMF to the magnetosphere. The magnetic ... -
Self-efficacy Of Caregiving And Caregiver Stress In Adult Informal Caregivers Of Individuals At The End-of-life
(Nursing, 2014-12)Researchers have established an association between the stressors of providing informal care and physiological and psychological health risks (Applebaum & Breitbart, 2013; Au et al., 2010; Bainbridge, Krueger, Lohfeld, & ... -
SELF-EFFICACY, MEDICATION ADHERENCE AND BLOOD PRESSURE CONTROL IN MEXICAN IMMIGRANTS
(University of Texas at Arlington, 2014-05)This study is a quantitative descriptive design. The purpose of this study was to describe blood pressure control, self-efficacy, and medication adherence in Mexican immigrants living in the United States. Thirty participants, ... -
The Self-heating Effects Of Bipolar Juction Transistors On The Functionality Of A Current Feedback Amplifier
(Electrical Engineering, 2010-11-01)Self-heating effects strongly affect the performance of modern silicon-on-insulator (SOI) bipolar junction transistors. This research work does an extensive analysis of self-heating effects on large-signal behavior, ... -
SELF-INDUCED BACK ACTION ACTUATED NANOPORE ELECTROPHORESIS (SANE) SENSOR FOR MOLECULAR DETECTION AND ANALYSIS
(2019-05-15)We fabricated a novel single molecule nanosensor by integrating a Solid-State Nanopore (SSNP) and a Double Nanohole (DNH) nanoaperture. The nanosensor employs Self-Induced Back-Action (SIBA) for optical trapping and enables ... -
Self-organization And Resource Allocation In Wireless Sensor Networks
(Electrical Engineering, 2007-08-23)In this dissertation, we utilize clustering to organize wireless sensors into an energy-efficient hierarchy. We propose a Medium-Contention Based ClusterHeadship Auction (MCCHA) scheme, through which sensors self-organize ... -
Self-propulsion of Leidenfrost Drops between Non-Parallel Structures
(Springer NatureDepartment of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 20 Septemb)In this work, we explored self-propulsion of a Leidenfrost drop between non-parallel structures. A theoretical model was first developed to determine conditions for liquid drops to start moving away from the corner of two ... -
SELF-PROPULSION OF LIQUID DROPS BETWEEN NON-PARALLEL STRUCTURES AT LEIDENFROST STATE
(2016-12-07)In this work, we explored self-propulsion of a liquid drop between non-parallel structures at a temperature above its Leidenfrost point. A theoretical model was first developed to determine conditions for a drop to move ... -
SELF-REGULATION OF BOUNDARIES FOR THRIVING, ENRICHMENT, AND BALANCE ACROSS THE WORK-NONWORK INTERFACE
(2021-08-05)This three-essay project explores boundary management and work-nonwork enrichment to explain how thriving in the work domain relates to thriving in the nonwork domain. The Cross-Domain Thriving model proposed in Study 1 ... -
Self-similarity And Modeling Of LTE / LTE-A Data Traffic
The mobile wireless communication system has evolved into its 4th generation with ubiquitous availability assuring higher data rates and reliable communication. To achieve a robust and reliable network, it is necessary to ... -
Self-Solicitation of a Provisional Self: The Dark Triad and Spontaneous Self-Concept Content
(2019-05-06)Higher levels of Dark Triad traits (Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and narcissism) are considered to be self-defeating, maladaptive, and can potentially interfere with the ability to develop a strong sense of self. Despite ... -
Self-Supervised Human Activity Recognition by Augmenting Generative Adversarial Networks
(ACM, 2021-07-02)This article proposes a novel approach for augmenting generative adversarial network (GAN) with a self-supervised task in order to improve its ability for encoding video representations that are useful in downstream tasks ... -
SELF-TRANSPORT OF LIQUID DROPS THROUGH A FUNCTIONAL MESH FOR REMOVING SWEAT AWAY FROM SKIN
(2016-12-07)In this work, a functional mesh is developed to transport liquid drops from one side of the mesh to the other. A theoretical model is established, which has been used to obtain three design criteria. Based on these design ... -
Selling college : a longitudinal study of American college football bowl game public service announcements
(Routledge, 2014-06)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Using ideological analysis as a frame, researchers analyzed institutionally created commercials (PSAs) that appeared in 28 U.S. college football bowl games over a ... -
