Fabricating Multifunctional Coatings Using Layer-By-Layer Langmuir-Blodgett Processes
(2016-05-29)This thesis reports two new coating methods, Langmuir-Blodgett-Scooping (LBS) and Langmuir-Blodgett-Sequential-Dip-Coating (LBSDC), which allows one to efficiently create self-assembled, organized thin films of nanomaterials ... -
Fabrication of Lithium Sulfur Cathodes via Air-controlled Electrospray
(2018-12-30)Rechargeable Lithium Sulfur batteries are considered as the next generation electrochemical energy storage system, because of their high theoretical capacity and high energy density. However, before it can be commercialized, ... -
FABRICATION OF SEMICONDUCTOR NANOSTRUCTURED THIN FILM USING INKJET PRINTING
(2017-08-30)Self-assembly of semiconductor nanocrystals into superlattice has opened up the materials library by design. Driven by the complex interplay between nanocrystal, ligand, solvent and substrate, integration of nanostructures ... -
FABRICATION OF SILICON-CARBON NANOCOMPOSITES VIA ELECTROSPINNING AND ELECTROSPRAYING PROCESSES FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF HIGH-RATE LITHIUM-ION BATTERY ANODES
(2019-05-30)In the recent years, batteries, especially lithium-ion batteries have garnered a lot of attention for the large-scale energy storage solutions and consumer electronics application. Other applications like transportation ... -
FABRICATION OF SOFT ROBOTIC ACTUATORS BY USING INJECTION MOLDING TECHNOLOGY
(2017-08-30)Compared with conventional rigid robots, soft robots composed of intrinsically soft materials are featured with compliance independent of their shapes, good adaptability under different environments, and safer interaction ... -
Fabrication, Characterization, And Modeling Of Algan/Gan High Electron Mobility Transistors
(2013-05-26)Initially, advances in the high frequency markets were begun by work in Gallium Arsenide systems. In recent years, however, the focus has shifted to the promise of ever higher power at ever higher frequency with the emergence ... -
Fabrication, Sensation and Control of Fluidic Elastomer Actuators and Their Application towards Hand Orthotics and Prosthetics
(2017-01-30)Due to their continuous and natural motion, fluidic elastomer actuators (FEAs) have shown potential in a range of robotic applications including prosthetics and orthotics. Despite their advantages and rapid developments, ... -
Face Vectors And Hilbert Functions
(2015-08-17)This dissertation builds upon two well-known theorems: Macaulay's theorem on the Hilbert functions of graded ideals, and the Kruskal-Katona theorem on the face vectors of simplicial complexes. There are four parts in the ... -
Face Vectors Of Subdivisions Of Balls
(2011-05-29)A fundamental invariant of a subdivision of a space into cells is its collection of face numbers or f -vector. A major area of study is understanding the possible f -vectors of various types of subdivisions. Most of this ... -
Facilitated Transport Of Groundwater Contaminants In The Vadose Zone: Colloids And Preferential Flow Paths
(2011-01-31)Although a wide variety of studies have been conducted to understand the numerous processes responsible for the transport of solutes and particulates through soils in order to prevent groundwater contamination, many gaps ... -
FACILITATING MECHANISTIC STUDIES OF PRE-MRNA SPLICING VIA A NOVEL TARGETED SEQUENCING APPROACH
(2017-12-30)Most eukaryotic genes have their protein coding sequences interrupted by non-coding introns, which must be removed from nascent pre-mRNAs by the spliceosome to generate a translatable mRNA. The past few decades have been ... -
Factor Models For Call Price Surface Without Static Arbitrage
(2012-01-31)Although stochastic volatility models and local volatility model are very popular among the market practitioner for exotic option pricing and hedging, they have several critical defects both in theory and practice. We ... -
Factors Affecting Feeder Cattle Prices In New York State
(2014-08-18)Price determination for feeder cattle is complex because many factors (and their interactions) impact feeder cattle markets. Further, feeder cattle price differentials associated with feeder cattle weight vary as economic ... -
FACTORS AFFECTING PARTICIPATION BEHAVIORS OF PREGNANT WOMEN WHO JOINTLY RECEIVED TWO DIFFERENT NUTRITION SUPPLEMENTS IN BANGLADESH
(2017-01-30)Low participation in nutrition supplementation can cause the true effects of the supplements to be underestimated. Participation behaviors and their associations with personal and socio-cultural characteristics were examined ... -
Factors Associated With The Clearance Of Uterine Inflammation And Resumption Of Ovarian Cyclicity In Postpartum Dairy Cows
(2012-08-20)Reproductive performance is paramount to efficient milk production in dairy cows. Many postpartum cows do not clear uterine inflammation and resume normal ovarian cyclicity by the time they are presented for reinsemination. ... -
Factors Controlling Promoter-Proximal Pausing By Rna Polymerase Ii
(2012-08-20)Most gene expression is regulated at the level of transcription, and the transition from initiation to productive elongation is a key point of regulation. This transition is accompanied by pausing of transcriptionally ... -
