In spring 2006, the Frazier International History Museum, in conjunction with the Ekstrom Library Photographic Archives at the University of Louisville, mounted an exhibit of 47 photographs taken by a young French foot soldier during World War I....
As my curatorial thesis project, I chose to curate an exhibit of George Washington Morrison's paintings. George Morrison was a well-known portrait painter in New Albany, Indiana during his time here from 1840-1893. His paintings are on display in...
Ranard, John--Exhibitions; Photography, Artistic--Exhibitions; Museum exhibits
This thesis project documents the curatorial and archival work completed using the collection of photographs, negatives, and ephemeral materials of John Ranard. This collection belongs to his estate and is currently housed at the University of...
Energy independence requires that the nation reduce its dependence on foreign oil imports. This can be achieved through electrification of transportation vehicles if proper battery technology can be developed. In addition, the renewable energy...
More than 50% of the total energy produced is typically rejected in the form of waste heat from various processes. The grand challenge is that most of this waste heat is released at temperatures much lower than 1000 C, which makes it difficult to...
Hematite synthesized by low pressure oxygen plasma has been shown previously to exhibit promising characteristics as a photo-anode for a photoelectrochemical water splitting cell. It is cheap, stable and has a 2.1 eV bandgap and exhibits a...
Quorum sensing (Microbiology); Cellular signal transduction; Bacterial genetics
Quorum sensing in the oral pathogen Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is dependent upon the soluble signaling molecule AI-2, but it is not known how the initial detection of AI-2 is coupled to the downstream regulation of gene expression that...
Guanine-rich oligonucleotides (GROs) are being developed as a novel anticancer agents. GROs exhibit potent antiproliferative properties against several malignant cell lines and in established in vivo tumor models. In a recent Phase I clinical trial...
Zimmerman, Leo W., 1924–2008; Art, Abstract--Kentucky--Louisville; Kinetic art--Kentucky--Louisville; Mural painting and decoration, American--Kentucky--Louisville
Leo Zimmerman is a contradiction: A man who was both highly collaborative and deeply influential in the Louisville art scene but was a misanthrope who became increasingly reclusive over the years. He produced prolifically yet chose to never sell...
The aim of the study was to determine the incidence and imaging characteristics of soft tissue calcifications on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). 556 CBCT image datasets were reviewed and 308 included. The following conditions were recorded:...
Rapid Electrokinetic Patterning (REP) is a relatively new method for collecting and manipulating micrometer-scale particles at an electrode surface. REP is an AC electrokinetic technique that uses induced fluid motion to capture and manipulate...
For persons with disabilities, access to transportation is necessary for integration into society. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) has been instrumental in assuring transportation access to individuals with disabilities for purposes of...
Fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites (PMCs) using high-temperature thermoplastics as the matrix material represent a lightweight design solution for applications above 250°F. This is often required for aircraft structures subjected to...
Nanoparticles are a class of materials that exhibit unique physical and chemical properties compared to those of the same material at the bulk scale. One method of enhancing the thermal conductivity, and hence the heat transfer coefficient, of a...
We are more likely to "hurt the one's we love" than we are complete strangers (cf. R. Miller, 1991, 1997). Early in dating relationships, partners appear to me more likely to manage their impressions to present themselves as better than...
Indoor exhibit at the World's Fair in St. Louis, Missouri, probably in the Palace of Agriculture, of an open structure with block pillars and an arch which reads "Indiana" and runs above a cutout of a herald picturing a sun, buffalo, and...

A large electric light exposition, apparently inside a big tent or exhibit hall. "Industrial Power Exhibit" is spelled out in lights at the far end of the hall. A chandelier and "star" lights hang from the ceiling. Other lights...

A large electric light exposition, apparently inside a big tent or exhibit hall. "Industrial Light Exhibit" is spelled out in lights at the far end of the hall. Below, a smaller sign appears to read "Commonwealth Edison." A...
Railroad exhibit. On an elevated platform decorated with an image of a train is a model train, possibly made of straw or hay and a small building, made of similar materials. On the building is a sign with the words 'Samples. Products. Raised Along...
