Sigebert wrote on behalf of the Holy Roman emperors in their conflict with the papacy over the mutual scope of each office’s authority, known as the Investiture Controversy (1076-1122). The d...

Studies of the reaction mechanism and reinforcing effect of resorcinol and pre-condensates in polydienes

Krull, Felix

OSCILLATION DETECTION AND ANALYSIS IN POWER SYSTEMS WITH SCADA USING INFERENTIAL STATISTICS

Shiuab, Salman Siddique

The analysis of oscillations is of vital importance for stable, secure, and reliable power system operations. Recently, many algorithms have been proposed to identify potential forced oscillation sources using synchrophasors. However, the synchrophasor coverage is limited in several systems, and the oscillation source...

Between Art and Science: Growing Old in Shakespeare’s Worlds

Bui, Hanh

The dissertation examines the role that early modern science plays in the construction of aging bodies in Shakespeare’s works.

It accounted for nearly 10 million deaths globally in 2020 and remains the second leading cause of death in the United States, behind cardiovascular disease. Chemotherapy is one of the most common cancer treatment approaches. However, some aggressive cancer type...

Space Charge Regulated Ion Transport through Single Nanopore and Nanoporous Membranes

Baram, Dipak

Nanopores with symmetry-breaking features possess unique ion transport properties that are inaccessible in bulk or amorphous systems, offering new avenues to develop or improve functions in energy conversion, logic operations, neuromorphic computing, synapses, separation, chemical sensing, and iontronics. Solid-state n...

Enhancing the integrity of New Zealand's Halal meat supply chain operations through blockchain and other emerging industry 4.0 technologies

Ellahi, Rizwan Matloob

The global Halal food market is expanding rapidly, yet ensuring the integrity, transparency, and traceability of Halal meat supply chains remains a major challenge, particularly in multi jurisdictional contexts where standards, certification regimes, and enforcement capacities vary. New Zealand, a key exporter of Halal...

Results: Through the first study we identified the most common non-urgent conditions that children present to the ED with. These conditions include fever, extremity pain, fall, extremity injury, and cough. It was also determined that fever, fall, and cough have variation in the triage scores assigned, meaning that some...

Tailoring health communication messages to signal the risk of wildfire smoke among at-risk populations

Hsu, Ying-Chia

Hazards associated with wildfire smoke pose significant health risks, causing immediate and long-term harm to individuals and society. Wildfire-specific PM2.5 is directly associated with severe health issues. Low public awareness has led to an underestimation of the potential harm of wildfire PM2.5, particularly among...
