When commitment matters : essays on social evaluation and its market outcomes
… innovation in diamond production, namely, labmade diamonds. While this provides a more efficient way of achieving a given level of quality, consumers have generally been resistant to lab-made diamonds. We argue that one mechanism that drives this resistance is the use of a product in the …

Emotional Memory: Examining Differences in Retrieval Methods
… no such effect predicted for pure lists. Our lab made several attempts to extend the theory to picture stimuli, but were unsuccessful. However, the predictions of Priority Binding Theory were tested using recall, while studies in our lab have used recognition as a retrieval method. Research …

Applications of Layer-by-Layer Films in Electrochromic Devices and Bending Actuators
… varied for comparison of the performance of the lab-made prototype device with the commercially available "small pixel" size displays. Symmetrical EC devices were fabricated and tested whenever conducting polymers are used as an EC material. This symmetrical configuration utilizes conducting …

Evaporation of pure fluids and mixtures in a microchannel tube
… or recorded simultaneously. Deep discussion is made for illustrating the two-phase flow in microchannel tube by connecting flow patterns to measurements. Measurements are done at varied mass fluxes, heat fluxes, saturation temperatures to understand the effect of the operating conditions. The …

SPECIATION STUDIES FOR BIOGENIC VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS AND SECONDARY ORGANIC AEROSOL GENERATED BY OZONOLYSIS OF VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUND MIXTURES
… SOA precursors are investigated; commercial and lab made VOC mixtures are studied for SOA generation, product analysis, and absorption characteristics of aged SOA. Chapter 1 introduces PM, VOCs present in atmosphere, SOA generation, and speciation of products generated from the ozonolysis of …
