Geomechanical aspects of fracture growth in a poroelastic, chemically reactive environment
… of host rock fluid flow on the propagation and pattern development of multiple NHF in a poroelastic media. A realistic geomechanical model is developed to combine both the fluid flow and mechanical interactions between multiple fractures. The natural hydraulic fracture propagation is observed to …

Diffusional instabilities on curved manifolds
… instabilities provide a versatile mechanism for pattern formation, and have found applications in modeling a variety of biological and chemical systems. Although pattern formation has been observed in systems with a variety of geometries, the theoretical study of diffusional instabilities has …

The Career Pattern of Ndea Elementary School Counselors
The focus of the study is on the 13-year career pattern of the individuals who were trained as elementary school counselors in 1965-67 under the National Defense Education Act at the University of Illinois. Also, the study is an attempt to provide information as to whether the intent of the …

Developmental Basis of Wing Pattern Diversity in Heliconius Butterflies
A major challenge to evolutionary developmental biology is to understand the how modifications to gene regulatory networks can lead to biological diversity. Heliconius butterfly wing patterns provide an excellent example of this diversity. In particular, the species H. melpomene and H. erato …

Quantitative Analysis and Imaging-Based Insights Into The Characteristics and Mechanisms of Yeast Pattern Formation
… the complex biofilm architecture with distinct patterns. Although the molecular regulations of surface patterning have been well characterized in bacteria, the mechanisms underlying the complex pattern formation in eukaryotic biofilms remain unclear.</p> <p>This dissertation aims to investigate …

Lysine Specific Demethylase-1 and the Brahma Chromatin Remodeling Complex Regulate Conserved Signaling Pathways During Drosophila Wing Development
… role in regulating the proper expression of many developmentally important genes, including those required for eye and wing tissue morphogenesis. A temperature sensitive mutation in one of the core subunits, SNR1 (SNF5/Ini1/SMARC B1), results in reproducible wing patterning phenotypes that can be …

Developmental timing of pupation and analysis of color pattern response to thermal stress in Bombus impatiens (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
… 250 species that exhibit high diversity in color pattern phenotypes, colony sizes, and habitats across the globe. Nearly two centuries of research have investigated the biological factors leading to their widespread distribution and ecological adaptability. As purported members of Müllerian …
