Show moreSpallation neutrons produced from cosmic ray muons are a major source of backgrounds in underground physics experiments. Experiments have been done to study spallation neutron production and yield, but our understanding of these processes is still limited. There are various interactions that can produce spallation neutrons. Most of these production mechanisms are fairly well understood; much of the uncertainty in our understanding of spallation neutrons lies in mechanisms such as virtual photon exchange and the assumptions used to calculate the photonuclear cross section. Even the experiments that have been carried out do not agree with each other or theoretical calculations. Spallation neutron production mechanisms are discussed, as well as a new experiment to study spallation neutrons. The impact of this study on current and future underground physics experiments is also explored.

Show moreThe integration of a supervisory knowledge-based system (KBS) with a multivariable control system is examined to provide robust multivariable control of a chemical reaction process. The supervisory KBS is capable of monitoring the process to detect system faults as well as assessing control system performance. If a control system performance deficiency is detected, the KBS formulates and implements the necessary corrective controller tuning. This adaptive capability reduces the conservatism of the robust control system. The underlying mechanisms are discussed and the re-tuning ability of the KBS is illustrated by using rigorous simulations of a chemical reaction process

Show moreApplications of DC-DC converter require a high power, high efficiency performance, especially for automotive applications and renewable energy applications. A desired converter should have a fast response, stable output in different conditions. This thesis studies a novel high gain DC-DC resonant converter and its control. Based on the circuit analysis and operation evaluation, feed-forward and feedback control methods are proposed in order to achieve stability under variety of changes. Moreover, circuit topology is investigated in response to the efficiency improvement. Simulations in PSIM, PLECS and MATLAB Simulink have been carried out to validate the controller design and topology development. The simulation results are in consistence to the theoretical analysis. The overall high efficiency at nominal operating point is further increased.

Show moreOver the past decade, permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) have gained significant popularity in industry, such as wind turbines and electric vehicles, owing to their high efficiency, high output power to volume ratio, and high torque to current ratio. In these mission critical applications, an unexpected fault or failure of the machine could lead to very high repair or replacement cost, or even catastrophic system failure. Therefore a robust and reliable health monitoring and fault diagnostic approach is desired, which could help in scheduling preventive maintenance to lengthen their lifespan and avoid machine failure. This dissertation presents a novel multi-faults diagnostic approach using search coils. These search coils are wound around armature teeth, so they typically need to be installed during manufacturing. But its immunity to high frequency harmonics makes it suitable for inverter/rectifier fed motors or generators, such as wind turbines and automotive systems. In addition, this method does not require the knowledge of proprietary constructional details of the machine. Since the electromagnetic flux is directly measured in this method, it provides much more information than any other scheme: the direction of eccentricity and the location of shorted windings. Furthermore, this method is also capable of evaluating the severity of each fault, which is of significant importance in mission critical applications such as automotive, aerospace and military applications. In addition to these uses, the search coils can be used as a universal sensor to estimate phase current or rotor position, which are critical information in a PMSM close-loop control, which allow it to work as a backup sensor for fault tolerant operation. The proposed fault detection scheme and universal sensor concept have been tested under several scenarios with Finite Element Analysis and experimentally validated.

Show moreThe overall goal of this work is to apply in vivo and in vitro models to study the basement membrane protein laminin α4 (lama4) in adipocyte function. Adipose tissue accumulation, lipogenesis, and structure were examined in mice with a null mutation of the lama4 gene (Lama4−/−) and compared to wild-type animals (Lama4+/+). The Lama4−/−mice phenotype was investigated to evaluate if the differences were due specifically to the adipose tissue function. Physical activity and food intake does not differ between Lama4+/+ and Lama4−/− mice. However, Lama4−/− mice have a significantly increased metabolic rate at 25°C and 16°C compared to Lama4+/+ mice. In contrast, in thermoneutral conditions at 30°C both Lama4+/+ and Lama4−/− mice exhibit equivalent metabolic rates. Interestingly, when room temperature housed mice fat pads were evaluated with immunohistochemistry, Lama4−/− mice exhibit significantly increased UCP-1 expression in subcutaneous adipose. These results suggest that beiging, white to brown adipocytes, in subcutaneous adipose tissue in Lama4−/− mice may lead to decreased adipose tissue accumulation and improved metabolic function. While animal models indicate the absence of lama4 results in more beiging in subcutaneous adipose tissue, an in vitro tissue engineered model was developed to study the adipocyte function in a controlled microenvironment. Primary cell spheroids developed from Lama4+/+ and Lama4−/− were incorporated into synthetic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogels within a range of stiffnesses. When the cells were given the same chemical cues their functions differed depending upon microenvironment stiffness. Beige function in adipocyte cells in 3D can be influenced by matrix stiffness. In conclusion, the laminin alpha 4 basement membrane protein absence in adipose tissue results in adipocyte functional changes in vivo. The Lama4−/− mice have resistance to diet induced weight gain and increased metabolic rate at room temperature and when cold challenged. The Lama4−/− mice had increased beiging in the subcutaneous depot. Additionally, a tissue engineered model was developed to further study cell-ECM interactions first identified in an animal model. These in vivo findings and the engineered model of adipose tissue have great potential for studying obesity and other adipose related diseases. Future work will require continued interdisciplinary collaboration towards the successful identification and screening of novel therapeutics using engineered tissue models.

Title: RECEIVER AUTONOMOUS INTEGRITY MONITORING AGAINST ORBIT EPHEMERIS FAULTS IN CARRIER PHASE DIFFERENTIAL GPS

Show moreThis work investigates the potential of the Global Positioning System (GPS) to enable a safe approach for rendezvous applications including shipboard landing of military aircraft. GPS has been shown to have the necessary accuracy for such an operation, and could potentially replace the existing radar or laser based systems. [Kha08][WPF08]1 However, to ensure safe operation, GPS must also be able to avoid hazardous situations. Shipboard aircraft approach navigation is an example rendezvous application requiring both high accuracy and high integrity. In this work, GPS measurement error models and orbit ephemeris fault (OEF) detection algorithms are developed for rendezvous applications, and performance is analyzed for the aircraft shipboard landing application. Both reference station and user based monitors can be used for orbit ephemeris fault detection. The available reference monitors either require a stationary reference receiver, or cannot protect against all types of orbit ephemeris faults. As an alternative, this work develops and investigates the use of receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM), which is user-based. Two contrasting algorithms, differential RAIM (DRAIM) and relative RAIM (RRAIM) are derived and analyzed for a realistic shipboard landing application. DRAIM is most effective when the aircraft first begins the approach. On the other hand, RRAIM performs best near the end of the approach. Assessing integrity risk is shown to be a major challenge for the RRAIM algorithm. Thus, a new unified RAIM (URAIM) concept is introduced. It seamlessly integrates DRAIM and RRAIM into a single detection algorithm, and also facilitates integrity risk evaluation. This is because the URAIM measurement equation can be used for both position estimation as well as fault detection. 1Corresponding to references in the Bibliography. xii Since high accuracy is desired, fixing integer cycle ambiguities is required. The Enforced Position-Domain Integrity-Risk Cycle Resolution Algorithm (EPIC) method of integrity risk bounding is used along with the URAIM fault detection algorithm in what we call the EPIC-URAIM algorithm. In general, the OEF will interfere with the cycle resolution process. In this work, the EPIC integrity risk bound formula is modified to account for the presence of an OEF. The EPIC-URAIM algorithm is simulated for 1507 sea-based locations around the globe. An average global availability of accuracy and integrity of 98.6% is achieved. This work illustrates the feasibility of detecting orbit ephemeris faults with integrity, while simultaneously meeting stringent accuracy requirements for real-time rendezvous navigation applications.

Show moreNanocomposites exhibit enhanced physical properties including mechanical strength, thermal stability, and gas barrier properties. The development of nanocomposites has led to applications in food industry, mostly in food packaging. The application of nanocomposites in food packaging may extend the shelf life of a food, thus increasing the market value for manufactures. However, there is limited data and research to assess the risk of exposure of nanomaterials to consumers. This project aims at evaluating the factors that can influence the release of nanomateirals in low density polyethylene/clay nanocomposites films. Nanocomposites based on low density polyethylene (LDPE), containing 1, 3, 5 and 7 wt.% of Cloisite 20A and maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene (MAPE) as a compatibilizer were prepared by melt compounding and characterized in this thesis project. Cloisite 20A is mostly composed of montmorillonite (MMT), which is commonly used as a nanoscale size filler. LDPE/Clay nanocomposite films containing MMT and three mass equivalents of MAPE were successfully extruded into thin films with good optical clarity. The materials were characterized by using transmission electron microscope (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), oxygen permeation analysis and a material testing machine. Important properties such as tensile modulus, oxygen transmission rate, thermal resistance and glass transition temperature were measured. Nanocomposite films were immersed in three kinds of food simulants (absolute ethanol, 3% acetic acid and deionized water). Storage time, storage temperature and percent fill of clay were evaluated as the factors that can influence the release of nanomaterials. The content of released of Al, Mg, and Si was quantified using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Mg, Al and Si were continuously released from nanocomposite films in duration of 30 days. Fastest releasing speed was found in 3% aqueous acid at 75 °C, and lower temperature can largely decrease the release of nanoparticles. This project is an initial attempt to assess the risks from the use of nanocomposites as food packaging.

Title: BOUNDING ESTIMATION INTEGRITY RISK FOR LINEAR SYSTEMS WITH STRUCTURED STOCHASTIC MODELING UNCERTAINTY

Show moreSafety critical estimation applications require quantification of integrity risk, which is the probability of the state estimate error exceeding predefined bounds of acceptability. Integrity risk can only be evaluated when the state estimate error probability density function is precisely known, necessitating stochastic models that exactly describe measurement noise and disturbance inputs. Uncertainty in these models directly results in inaccurate assessments of integrity risk. This dissertation develops the first implementable methods to upper bound integrity risk when the autocorrelation functions of stochastic inputs reside between upper and lower bounding functions. The first part of this work considers real-valued estimation applications that use the Kalman filter or batch weighted least squares estimator. Explicit relations are developed between the estimate error variance and autocorrelation functions using a new generalized covariance matrix derived in this dissertation. From these expressions, two methods are provided to upper bound integrity risk. The first method enables fast computation of a conservative bound, and the second method produces the minimum upper bound via semi-definite optimization. Mixed real/integer estimation applications utilizing integer bootstrapping are the focus of the second part of this work. The integrity risk bound is formally defined as the global solution to a non-convex optimization problem over a polytope. Determination of the polytopic region is difficult, and two bounding approaches are initially developed for a circumscribing hyper-rectangular feasible region. Using an innovative method to define the polytope together with linear programming, a third method is derived to upper bound integrity risk over the true polytopic feasible region.

Show moreThe goal of IPRO 320 is to create an online professional network for school teachers at the kindergarten through twelfth grade level to allow for the sharing of ideas, lesson plans and other professionally relevant information. This is a continuing project which saw limited success in the previous semester in that a functioning web site was constructed based on surveys of public school teachers but it saw very little use. This semester, the planned approach is to build on the research generated last semester by performing additional market research with teachers. Following that, IPRO 320 will rework much of the previous web site by refining some of the features, adding additional ones as the research indicates and improving the website in general, both functionally and aesthetically.

Show moreBotanical/herbal teas may contain antimicrobial compounds that will affect the survival and persistence of the native as well as contaminant microflora. Although Salmonella are known for their ability to survive in low water activity environments, their survival on dry botanical/herbal teas has not been examined. The purpose of this work is to determine the survival of Salmonella on three types of teas, chamomile peppermint, and green tea under different storage conditions. In addition, the ability of Salmonella to grow in tea brewed with contaminated product was examined. A cocktail of four Salmonella serovars was inoculated onto 1 g samples of chamomile, peppermint, and green tea to give a starting cell population of approximately 10 log cfu/g. The inoculum was allowed to dry prior to storage at 25 °C and 35 °C and at low (<30% RH) and high (> 90% RH) humidity levels. At different time intervals up to 6 months, triplicate samples at each condition were evaluated for surviving Salmonella populations. In addition, samples were used to produce a low-temperature (sun) brewed tea and inoculated. Growth was assessed after 24 hr. Under the four storage conditions tested, survival followed the order 25°C/low RH > 35°C/low RH > 25°C/high RH > 35°C/high RH. Salmonella losses at 25°C/low RH occurred primarily during drying, after which populations showed little declines over 6 months. In contrast Salmonella decreased below detection after 45 days at 35°C and high RH in all teas tested. All teas tested supported the growth of Salmonella after brewing. Storage conditions significantly impact the survival of Salmonella in dried herbal teas. If Salmonella survives after storage, it may also survive and grow after a home brewing process.

Show moreCritically ill patients harbor multi-drug resistant pathogens that can activate their virulence in the response to low nutrient conditions and host stress derived factors. It was recently shown that the oversupply of inorganic phosphate to bacterial environment can profoundly suppress the virulence of pathogens. Here we hypothesized that phosphateand/ or polyphosphate-loaded nanoparticles can present a tool to deliver and slowly release phosphate in pathogen-rich niche, thereby suppressing bacterial virulence. In this work, a designed study on effect of different phosphate levels (including the phosphate released from hydrogel nanoparticles) on virulence of P. aeruginosa is addressed. In this work, we developed formulations for preparing hexametaphosphate-loaded nanoparticles on the basis of that for phosphate loaded nanoparticles. We utilized inverse miniemulsion polymerization in the synthesis of these nanoparticles. Polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA, moleculat weight of 575 Da) and N-vinyl pyrrolidone (molecular weight: 111.14 Da ) were chosen to be the initial monomers because the main crosslinker, polyethylene glycol is a kind of biocompatible material that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Several parameter could be adjusted among the experiment. We selected the monomer mole fraction of PEGDA-575 as our parameter. After the synthesis, a nanoparticle size distribution between 110 nm and 150 nm was obtained. And these nanoparticles were proved to be able to release phosphate and hexametaphosphate as drug molecules. Although there were release bursts in the test of release kinetics, the crosslink density could be adjusted in following researches. The second part of this study is to test the virulence suppression effect of the nanoparticles in in vitro experiment on a kind of opportunistic pathogen, P. aeruginosa. This kind of gram-negative bacteria is one of the common intestinal microbial communities. We presented the strategy of suppressing virulence while containing rather than killing the bacteria. As a result, polyphosphate loaded nanoparticles showed to be the most effective one among several experiment groups. This result gave this study a promising future in further research in several aspects, such as in vivo test in biomedical and biomedical engineering.

Show moreFor structural applications, grain re nement has been shown to enhance mechanical properties such as strength, fatigue resistance, and fracture toughness. Through control of the thermo-mechanical processing parameters, dynamic recrystallization mechanisms were used to produce microstructures consisting of sub-micron grains in 9310 steel, 4140 steel, and Ti-6Al-4V. In both 9310 and 4140 steel, the distribution of carbides throughout the microstructure a ected the ability of the material to dynamically recrystallize and determined the size of the dynamically recrystallized grains. Processing the materials at lower temperatures and higher strain rates resulted in ner dynamically recrystallized grains. Microstructural process models that can be used to estimate the resulting microstructure based on the processing parameters were developed for both 9310 and 4140 steel. Heat treatment studies performed on 9310 steel showed that the sub-micron grain size obtained during deformation could not be retained due to the low equilibrium volume fraction of carbides. Commercially available aluminum alloys were investigated to explain their high strain rate deformation behavior. Alloys such as 2139, 2519, 5083, and 7039 exhibit strain softening after an ultimate strength is reached, followed by a rapid degradation of mechanical properties after a critical strain level has been reached. Microstructural analysis showed that the formation of shear bands typically preceded this rapid degradation in properties. Shear band boundary misorientations increased as a function of equivalent strain in all cases. Precipitation behavior was found to greatly in uence the microstructural response of the alloys. Additionally, precipitation strengthened alloys were found to exhibit similar ow stress behavior, whereas solid solution strengthened alloys exhibited lower ow stresses but higher ductility during dynamic loading. Schmid factor maps demonstrated that shear band formation behavior was in uenced by texturing in these alloys.

Show moreHeusler alloys are compounds based on the original Heusler phase Cu2MnAl which are ternary intermetallics with a particular chemical stoichiometric formula X2YZ and face-centered cubic structure. Heusler alloys are of interest because of a range of physical phenomena which may occur in them that can be applied in mechanical or electronic devices, including shape memory property and disorder/order phenomenon. In this work, a high temperature drop calorimeters and Setaram calorimeters were used to obtain the enthalpy of formation and heat capacity of compounds in the Mn-based Heusler compounds (X2MnZ). Lattice parameters of these compounds were determined with XRD, and phase equilibria in these alloy system were studied in this work. Phase transformations were studied with DSC and dilatometry. The work is aimed at populating databases for computational thermodynamics, developing an understanding of alloying and clarifying phase equilibria.

Show moreHeusler compounds are ternary intermetallics with many promising properties such as spin polarization and magnetic shape memory effect. A better understanding of their thermodynamic properties facilitates future design and development. Therefore, standard enthalpies of formation and heat capacities from room temperature to 1500 K of selected Heusler compounds X2YZ (X = Co, Fe, Ni, Pd, Rh, Ru; Y = Co, Cu, Fe, Hf, Mn, Ni, Ti, V, Zr; Z = Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge, Sn) and half-Heusler compounds XYSn (X = Au, Co, Fe, Ir, Ni, Pd, Pt, Rh; Y = Hf, Mn, Ti, Zr) were measured using high temperature direct reaction calorimetry. The measured standard enthalpies of formation were compared with those predicted from ab initio calculations and the extended semiempirical Miedema's model. Trends in standard enthalpy of formation with respect to the periodic classification of elements were discussed. The effect of a fourth element (Co, Cu, Fe, Pd; Ti, V; Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge) on the standard enthalpy of formation of Ni2MnSn was also investigated. Lattice parameters of the compounds with an L21 structure were determined using X-ray powder diffraction analysis. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to determine melting points and phase transformation temperatures. Phase relationships were investigated using scanning electron microscopy with an energy dispersive spectrometer. The isothermal section of the Fe-Sn-Ti ternary system at 873 K was established using equilibrated alloys. Three ternary compounds including the Heusler compound Fe2SnTi were observed. A new ternary compound Fe5Sn9Ti6 was reported and the crystal structure of FeSnTi2 was determined for the first time.
