TBD Economic Impact of Fruit Flies in Mango Production in Senegal: Ex-Post Analysis of mango losses in Ziguinchor (Casamance)
The mango tree is one the important sources of income in the rural economy of Senegal. However, mango producers in Ziguinchor are facing fruit fly infestations leading to important losses in income. The aim of this study is to measure the impact of the losses encountered by mango farmers in …

The Trinity : myth, vision, and form in Dallas's River
… referred to as the Trinity Banks District (TBD), between the years 1840 and 2015. The thesis explores how the TBD has occupied a place of the "frontier" in the minds of Dallasites for over 175 years. The thesis finds that the visions and physical form of the TBD during these years derive …

Binding properties of adaptor proteins Tollip and Tom1
… Tollip and Tom1 bind to each other through their TBD and GAT domains, respectively, whereas Tollip interacts with phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P)-containing endosomal membranes. Tom1 and Tollip interaction and association with endosomes is proposed to be involved in the lysosomal …

Validation of Conjugate Heat-Transfer Capability for Water- Cooled High-Speed Flows
… flow solvers. In this work, FOGO is coupled with TBD and WIND-US flow solvers. WIND-US is a well validated flow solver developed by NASA, AEDC, and Boeing. TBD is a new flow solver developed at ERAU. TBD is verified for laminar stagnation point heat transfer prediction and turbulent flowfield …

Trust-based design of human-guided algorithms
… solution. Through the use of trust-based design (TBD), it was hypothesized that users of the HGA will gain better insight into the solution process, improve their calibration of trust, and generate superior solutions. The application of TBD requires the consideration of algorithms, solution …

TiN/HfO2/SiO2/Si gate stacks reliability : Contribution of HfO2 and interfacial SiO2 layer
… and activation energy of the timeto- breakdown (TBD), it was observed that IL initiates the gate stack breakdown at higher temperatures as well. A quantitative agreement was observed for key parameters of NBTI and time dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) such as the activation energies of …

Unsupervised maritime target detection
… regions. This approach is a Track-Before-Detect (TBD) concept and it is implemented using a hierarchical scheme for motion estimation, and matching of Scale- Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) appearance features. The experimental results show that these approaches are feasible for foreground …

Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Regarding Tickborne Diseases in Long Island, New York
… high endemicity of ticks and tickborne diseases (TBDs). Through a knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) survey, I identified several knowledge gaps related to Lyme disease treatment, age groups most at risk, and chronic Lyme disease. Knowledge of ticks and tick-borne diseases was positively …

Behavioural preferences and labour market attachment among South African youth
Youth unemployment in South Africa remains a persistent and multifaceted challenge. This study explores how behavioural preferences—specifically risk aversion and probability weighting—vary across employment categories among South African youth. Using structural estimates from incentivised Multiple …

Tick-borne Diseases: Assessing the Knowledge, Attitudes, and Behaviors of College Students
… decades, the prevalence of tick-borne diseases (TBDs) has dramatically increased. Symptoms of TBDs are very similar to other illnesses and are often referred to as flu-like in nature. TBDs could be easily prevented, however, if people used proper prevention methods. If not treated early in the …

Surveillance for hard ticks of public health concern in Illinois: methods, application, and education
… 2016, the number of human tick-borne disease (TBD) cases doubled and seven new tick-borne pathogens that can infect humans were discovered within the United States. Because tick exposure and the risk of infection with TBDs are closely related and there is a lack of approved and effective …

Computational Bayesian methods applied to complex problems in bio and astro statistics.
In this dissertation we apply computational Bayesian methods to three distinct problems. In the first chapter, we address the issue of unrealistic covariance matrices used to estimate collision probabilities. We model covariance matrices with a Bayesian Normal-Inverse-Wishart model, which we fit …
