n-Dimensional Semi-Hypercubes and the Algebras Associated With Their Hasse Graphs
(2015-04)Our goal is to be able to predict how automorphisms of the semihypercubes act using the Hasse graphs of the fixed k-faces to obtain a generating function for the Hasse graph polynomial. -
Nanoindentation of Silica Colloid Thin Films
(2019-05)Silica colloid films are technologically important as they can serve as the matrix to hold nanoparticles for the fabrication of thin film sensors. Thin film sensors need to be durable to function in a variety of environments. ... -
Nanoindentation of Silica Colloid Thin Films Sintered at Various Temperatures
(2018-04)A Hysitron nanoindentor was used to test the hardness and reduced modulus of several two sample groups. These samples consisted of silica colloids deposited onto glass slides that were sintered at various temperatures. ... -
Nanoswitches for Energy Savings Applications
(2011-05)Many current electronic devices use excess electricity. This project looks at the development of nano and microelectro mechanical switches (NEMS and MEMS respectively) to address this problem. -
Narrative Intervention to Teach Emotion Recognition in Children During the Middle Childhood Years
(2018-04)This single-case study examined the use of a narrative intervention using storybooks to teach emotion recognition skills in a school-age, typically developing child. The purpose of this study focused on the question: do ... -

(2017-02-21)Nursing students need to be educated to lead high quality care in complex healthcare environments. However, little detail exists regarding what hospital nurse leaders believe are vital behaviors of nursing students and ... -
Native Ligand Shell Rigidity and Crosslinking Ligand Dimensions Determine Interparticle Spacing In 2-D Arrays of Covalently-Crosslinked Gold Nanoparticle Films
(2019-05)Alkane thiol-capped gold nanoparticles were compressed into 2-d arrays using a Langmuir trough, and covalently crosslinked using a solution of alkanethiols to yield a flexible film of nanoparticles. These nanoparticles ... -
Navigating in a Virtual Environment: Effects of Navigation in Virtual Reality
(2017-02-21)Although it is generally understood that humans orient themselves spatially within an environment, the precise manner and timescale by which this is accomplished is not entirely understood. In rats, this has been studied ... -
