Title: LOCAL VISCOELASTIC PROPERTIES OF SOFT ANISOTROPIC FIBROUS TISSUE

Show moreThe current aging population, with more than 80 million "baby boomers", will present a steep medical challenge for our society in a foreseeable future. Half of the adults over 85 years old are predicted to be diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease by 2050. With healthcare cost reaching over 700 billion dollars in the United States, early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other co-existing neurodegenerative diseases is crucial to improve the recovery odds in patients and to decrease individual care cost. This work seeks to tackle this problem by proposing a novel computational framework toward improving the measurement of shear visco-elastic properties of brain white matter (WM), which vary with age. These measurements practically represent the effective (average) response of many cells and are typically obtained by using rheology or elastography. Although the former is direct, the latter requires the solution of an inverse problem based on a priori mechanical tissue model. The mechanical anisotropy of WM has previously not been fully explored although many inconsistencies have been reported in brain MRE experiments. To account for these inconsistencies a transversely isotropic constitutive model for the brain WM is proposed to interpret prior experiments involving 7 young and 4 older healthy men. By employing a novel inversion scheme, we report the local variation of the effective transverse and axial shear moduli in two well aligned WM structures (corpus callosum: CC; and cortical spinal tract: CST) for both the young and old cohort of healthy subjects part of the study. This work reports statistically significant changes in local regional variation of the transverse modulus across the CC for the young cohort. In the older cohort, the trend was similar yet not statistically significant. A novel candidate biomarker, the shear anisotropy metric, defined as the ratio of the transverse and axial shear moduli, found statistically significant local regional variation across the CC but not in the CST. Healthy aging was observed to decrease both transverse and axial in both CC and CST, although the variation was significant only for the CC. Finally, in an effort to understand the cause of effective transverse mechanical properties variation in WM with aging, the connection between effective and intrinsic contribution of WM cellular constituents is established. The intrinsic mechanical contributions of axons and glial matrix are separated by fitting the estimates of the effective shear moduli to a microscopic composite fiber model of myelinated axons embedded in the glial matrix. This work provides a method to establish a baseline for healthy brain mechanical properties thus promising to increase the specificity of MRE toward early diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases. Additional oscillating disc rheology experiments with decellularized porcine myocardium, and the fabrication of a stable heterogeneous phantom matching the mechanical, diffusional and electrical properties of the WM provide foundational knowledge for due development and validation of MRE methodologies employed in other tissues.

Title: Laser Powder Bed Fusion Of Cost-Effective Non-Spherical Ti-6Al-4V Powder

Show moreThis comprehensive research delves into the intricate dynamics of Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) of Ti-6Al-4V powders, emphasizing the potential of non-spherical, hydride-dehydride (HDH) powders as a cost-efficient alternative to traditional spherical powders. The study systematically explores the interplay between powder morphology, granulometry, and various post-processing treatments in shaping the resultant microstructure, porosity, and mechanical properties of L-PBF fabricated Ti-6Al-4V components.Initial investigations focused on the flowability, packing density, and resultant density of L-PBF parts using HDH powders with varying size distributions. Through meticulous optimization of laser parameters, parts with a relative density exceeding 99.5% were achieved, even at production rates 1.5–2 times higher than conventional LPBF processes. Dynamic synchrotron X-ray imaging provided insights into laser-powder interactions, revealing key mechanisms of porosity formation associated with HDH powders. Further microstructural examinations highlighted the formation of columnar β grains with acicular α/α′ phases in the as-built condition. Mechanical tests, including fatigue assessments under fully-reversed tension-compression conditions, revealed the critical role of surface roughness in fatigue performance. Notably, mechanical grinding significantly improved fatigue strength, especially in the high cycle fatigue region, by eliminating surface micro-notches. X-ray diffraction analyses further elucidated the stress and micro-strain profiles, offering insights into the material's deformation mechanisms. A pivotal discovery was the presence of α/α′ on prior β/β grain boundaries, challenging the prevailing notion that high cooling rates in L-PBF preclude β/β grain boundary variant selection. Electron backscatter diffraction and synchrotron X-ray imaging illuminated the role of powder characteristics in locally modulating cooling rates, leading to β/β grain boundary α′ lath growth. Lastly, the research underscored the multifaceted interdependencies among contouring, powder granulometry, Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP), and mechanical surface treatments. A pronounced increase in sub-surface porosities was identified when contouring was combined with fine powder granulometry. However, post-HIP treatments induced a phase transformation from martensitic α′ to a basket-weave α+β microstructure, enhancing the material's fatigue resistance to levels comparable to wrought Ti-6Al-4V. In summation, this doctoral research offers a holistic understanding of the L-PBF process for Ti-6Al-4V, emphasizing the viability of non-spherical HDH powders and providing a roadmap for parameter optimization, defect minimization, and mechanical property enhancement in L-PBF-fabricated Ti-6Al-4V structures.

Title: Case Study: A Comparison of Pedagogical Content Knowledge Between Coaches and Coaches/Mentees

Show moreThis multiple case study dissertation aimed to examine one of the domains of pedagogical content knowledge, knowledge of content and students, between different types of elementary coaches and between coach and their respective collaborating teachers. It also investigated the impact a coaches’ background experiences have on the dynamic between coaches and teachers and the perceptions' teacher have on the effectiveness of coaching. The theoretical framework used in this qualitative study was Ball, Thames, and Phelps’ (2008) definition of PCK. Data was collected from six coaches–four instructional coaches and two math coaches–and eleven k-5th grade teachers. Data collection involved a survey, LMT assessment, and semi-structured interviews, and a thematic analysis method was conducted. The findings from the cross-case analysis resulted in ten themes, with the majority having multiple categories. One finding to one of the research questions was that there were no differences in knowledge of content and students between mathematics coaches and general instructional coaches, but other areas to further investigate emerged. Another finding was that coaches were either within the same capacity as their respective teachers or had extra knowledge of content and students. Although the majority of the coaches’ knowledge of content and students was at a higher level according to their LMT score, it does not necessarily mean that coaches are working with teachers in improving knowledge of content and students. In addition, more research is recommended in creating a pedagogical content knowledge instrument that is specific for coaches.
