This thesis will present various methods of trajectory generation for various types of mobile robots. Then it will progress to evaluating Robot Operating Systems (ROS’s) that can be used to control and simulate mobile robots, and it will explain...
Integrated circuits--Design and construction; Integrated circuits industry--Technological innovations
Lithographic processes for printing device structures on integrated circuits plays a major role in the semiconductor industry. This project aims at designing and fabricating a programmable mask for a direct write lithography system which can...
Research over the past twenty five years has led to the development of the hypothesis that colorectal cancer is caused by the accumulation of mutations in tumor suppressor genes and proto-oncogenes. The last ten years has also revealed that the...
Over the last 15 years, researchers have explored the use of piezoresistive microcantilevers/resonators as gas sensors because of their relative ease in fabrication, low production cost, and their ability to detect changes in mass or surface stress...
Electric power production; Electric power failures; Hybrid electric vehicles
Electric vehicles are quickly becoming one of the most rapidly growing technologies of this age. With their acceleration to prominence, the concept of Vehicle to Grid (V2G) becomes much more common as well. V2G is normally used as a supplement to...
Dermal wounds, including bed sores, pressure ulcers, and diabetic ulcers have a large impact on American healthcare costing up to $7 billion per year. Adequate pharmaceutical remedies applied at constant rate could prove to increase the healing...
Most of the structures in submillimeter-scale engineering are created from thin films, making them essentially two-dimensional (2D). Significant work has been done to fabricate 3D structures using self-folding, a deterministic form of...
G-quadruplexes are thought to have biological importance, with studies based on small molecule interactions and quadruplex-interactive antibodies demonstrating their potential for formation in vivo. One potential biological function of quadruplex...
Cheating (Education); Web-based instruction; College students--Attitudes
This dissertation examined cheating attitudes and behaviors of undergraduates, especially those enrolled in online courses. While cheating is an established problem within the academy, it is also an issue on the job and has been in the spotlight in...
This thesis chronicles my journey within the framework of a hero's journey, as a theatre artist in the Master of Fine Arts program at the University of Louisville's Theatre Arts Department. This thesis is divided into six chapters that explore the...
Microelectromechanical systems; Biotelemetry; Strains and stresses--Measurement
Lumbar arthrodesis or spinal fusion is usually performed to relieve back pain and regain functionality from ruptured discs, disc degenerative disease, trauma and scoliosis. Metal rods are often fixed to the spine with screws or hooks, while fusion...
View from across the street of a three- or four-story brick apartment building in a U-shaped layout with stairs on either side leading to patio above a garage entrance. Address: 1601 Spring Drive Apartments, Spring Drive, Louisville, Kentucky.
View of a three-lane stretch of Crittenden Drive with trees and houses on the right side of the road and a gas station and AETNA sign on the left side.
Address: 2132 Lakeside Drive, Louisville, Kentucky. A home is shown at the top of a small hill. It is in the style of a chalet with stone work on the basement, chimney, and first level and a crossed woodwork design on the upper levels. A concrete...
Address: 2448 Grinstead Drive. A home is pictured in a yard where there are more leaves on the ground than on the trees. The building is a three-story A-frame with a wrap-around porch. A man in a dark suit (possibly William A. Hildebrand, the name...
When observers view a naturalistic (l/f) broadband image, the various spatial components present in the image stimulate many detecting-mechanisms that suppress each other. This suppression is anisotropic, being relatively greater for mechanisms...
T lymphopoiesis has been an intense focus of immunological research since the discovery of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and T cell mediated transplant rejection. Additionally, researchers have long appreciated the role of T cells, and...
A fork of Beargrass Creek runs parallel to a portion of Grinstead Drive. A rock retaining wall is between the street and the wooded land with the creek. A car is parked next to the road by a large pile of lumber and narrow pipes. Title supplied by...
