Power Model for Terahertz Antenna Array Architectures
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2019)
The demand for higher data traffic rates continues to grow, to satiate this, eyes fall upon the terahertz band (0.1-10THz). Guarding the accessibility of the terahertz band is high path loss, inducing a need for highly ...
System Identification of Electrode-Skin Interface for Flexible PDMS Electrodes and Microelectrode Arrays
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2019)
The objective of this research is to perform transfer function modeling of the electrode - skin interface using System Identification Toolbox (MathWorks, Inc. USA). This computational modeling is essential for developing ...
Contrasting Hydroclimate Response of Coastal Norway and Arctic Russia During Late-Glacial and Holocene Climate Change
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
Reconstructing changes to the δ2H of precipitation through time as recorded in leaf wax hydrogen isotopes (δ2Hwax) can provide substantive information about changes to local hydroclimate, incorporating influences from the ...
Chalcogenopyrylium Dyes for Multiplex Biosensing
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2019)
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has gained recognition as a biomedical imaging technique because of its sensitivity and multiplexing capabilities. By sensing multiple disease biomarkers at once, early disease ...
Development of the First Ultra-Broadband Networking Testbed at True Terahertz Frequencies
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2019)
This thesis discusses the development of the first ultra-broadband networking testbed at True Terahertz (THz) frequencies. This testbed is an interconnection between the National Instruments (NI) 2GHz baseband system and ...
Holey Graphene Oxide Membranes for Water Desalination
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
Holey reduced graphene oxide (r-HGO) was investigated for next-generation nanofiltration membranes for water desalination. The GO nanosheets were first etched with hydrogen peroxide to create holes to enhance the water ...
The Effect of Skewed Elevation in dNTP pools on Loss of Heterozygosity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
DNA precursors, deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates (dNTP), are the basic components of DNA. Enzyme ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) tightly regulates the levels of dNTP pools to ensure high fidelity DNA replication and repair. ...
Modeling the Structural Dynamics of Parachutes with Support for Multi-Dimensional Manifold Mesh Refinement
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
We have developed a computational model to study the structural dynamics of parachute deployment using adaptive finite element analysis. The mathematical model uses a large deformation formulation of nonlinear elasticity ...
Cravens Virtual Museum Project: A case study of digital heritage and museum education
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
3D scanning and printing has emerged into the 21st century as a tool to digital heritage for both preserving and disseminating cultural heritage for the benefit of humankind. 3D technologies have allowed for the production ...
The Disillusion of Marriage: The Failing Quest for Happiness in Edith Wharton's The House of Mirth, Summer, and The Custom of the Country
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
Within most narratives involving women, they start with the pursuit of marriage and end with a happily married woman. Within her novels, Edith Wharton works to demonstrate the flaws of this understanding and present a ...
