MODERNIZATION OF THE MOCK CIRCULATORY LOOP: ADVANCED PHYSICAL MODELING, HIGH PERFORMANCE HARDWARE, AND INCORPORATION OF ANATOMICAL MODELS
A systemic mock circulatory loop plays a pivotal role as the in vitro assessment tool for left heart medical devices. The standard design employed by many research groups dates to the early 1970's, and lacks the acuity needed for the advanced device designs currently being explored. The necessity …

The rhetorical construction of science: Demarcation as rhetorical practice
Since the rise of science, scholars have struggled to identify the unique and essential characteristics which demarcate science from other intellectual activities. This dissertation develops a view of demarcation as a practical matter which is rhetorically negotiated by scientists in ongoing …

Influence of Molecular Orientation and Surface Coverage of w-Functionalized Mercaptans on Surface Acidity
The compounds 12-phenoxy-dodecane-1-thiol, 4-dodecyloxymercaptophenol and 3-dodecyloxymercaptophenol have been synthesized using a novel synthesis to investigate the effect that the orientation of the functional group has on surface acidity. 3-dodeycloxymercaptophenol and 4-dodecyloxymercaptophenol …

An electromyographic-cinematographic analysis of the tennis serve
The purpose of this study was to investigate and define the action potential of selected muscles in performing the three basic types of tennis serves. The muscles investigated were the triceps, anterior deltoid, middle deltoid, and posterior deltoid when executing the flat, slice, and twist serves.

A microcomputer model for assessing the relative risks and vulnerabilities of streets and jurisdictions to the shipment of hazardous materials
The comprehensive planning of transportation systems resource allocations and operating regulations so as to minimize the danger to localities from hazardous materials shipments is a growing concern among transportation planners. Standing in their way are a number of difficulties inherent in the …

The elastic constants and wave velocities for an axially symmetric medium
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the properties and wave velocities for an axially symmetric medium. The investigation consists of four parts. In the first part, the physical properties of the medium are defined. Then the stress-strain relations for the case under consideration are …
