Theoretical and Experimental Analysis of Strain in a Tire Under Static Loading and Steady-State Free-Rolling Conditions
(2011-04-11)
This main objective of this work is to predict
the operating conditions or the state of a tire based on a
wireless sensor suit. First a three dimensional finite element
model of a standard reference test tire (SRTT) was ...
Theoretical Investigation of Doped Silicon Nanomaterials Synthesis and Properties
(2019-07-16)
With the advent of the fourth industrial revolution and 5G technology era, demand for semiconducting chips is expected to increase explosively. Most semiconductor devices are produced through hundreds of stages of chemical ...
Theoretical investigations of small molecule adsorption on pristine, doped, and perforated graphene
(2016-08-01)
Computational chemistry is a standard tool to understand chemical phenomena at the
electronic and molecular levels, and is a rapidly growing branch of chemistry. In this thesis,
three distinct computational chemistry ...
Theoretical Modeling and Lateral Load Testing of Driven Steel Pile Bridge Bents
(2019-01-09)
In this thesis, multiple lateral load tests on bridge bents were modeled and performed. FB Multipier models were created for eight load tests: four load tests conducted on a bridge bent under construction in an Alabama ...
Theoretical modeling combined with experimental spectroscopic measurements for the diagnosis of high-Z erosion and transport applications in plasmas
(2020-12-11)
Understanding plasma-material interaction (PMI) continues to be a challenge for future
fusion reactors. High-Z materials (e.g. tungsten, molybdenum) have emerged as leading
solutions for plasma facing materials. Erosion ...
Theoretical Moment-Rotation Curve for Steel Piles Embedded in Concrete
(2017-07-31)
The accurate modelling and analysis of connections formed by embedding steel piles in concrete is a difficult undertaking that has only recently begun to receive attention in the research community. These connections are ...
Theoretical predictions and experimental measurements of sound transmission through a flat plate and a cylindrical shell
(2017-07-31)
Sound transmission through a flat plate and a cylindrical shell was studied both theoretically and experimentally. The theory consisted of using statistical energy analysis (SEA) to predict the transmission loss of each ...
Theoretical Study of Pressure-Induced Phase Transitions and Thermal Properties for Main-Group Oxides and Nitrides
(2009-08-03)
Main group nitrides and oxides are important solid compounds with applications in fields ranging from structural ceramics to catalysts and electronic materials. We have theoretically investigated the pressure-induced phase ...
Theoretical Study of Thermal Properties and Thermal Conductivities of Crystals
(2008-08-15)
Standard first-principles total energy and force calculations were extended to the calculations of harmonic force constant matrices and third order lattice anharmonicity tensors with an efficient super-cell finite-difference ...
THEORY OF HIGH-DIMENSIONAL ℓ1-PENALIZED LOGISTIC REGRESSION
(2023-08-04)
n the setting where sample size n is sufficiently large relative to the number of features p, a classical result is that fitting a logistic model by means of maximum likelihood produces estimates that are approximately ...
Therapeutic Alliance and Outcomes: The Moderating Role of Therapist Sex
(2013-07-10)
The purpose of the study was to explore the relationship between therapeutic alliance (between system and within system) and therapeutic outcomes (individual distress and relational satisfaction) for males and females. ...
Therapeutic Alliance as a Mediating Factor Between Couple Attachment and Therapeutic Outcome
(2005-08-15)
The purpose of this thesis was to examine how the therapeutic alliance mediates
the relationship between the anxiety and avoidance dimensions on a couple attachment
measure and subsequent relationship satisfaction scores. ...
Therapeutic Alliance as a Mediating Factor between Couple Expectancy and Therapeutic Outcome
(2006-08-15)
The purpose of this thesis was to determine whether the therapeutic alliance mediated the relationship between couple expectancy for change and relationship satisfaction. The sample was comprised of 59 cases of males and ...
Therapeutic Contact Lenses for Comfort Molecules
(2007-12-15)
Dry eye syndrome affects nearly 15% of the population and can cause extreme discomfort that interferes with quality of life. Current treatment options include delivering comfort agents such as hyaluronic acid (HA) to the ...
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Population Analysis as Applied to Leflunomide and Cyclosporine Therapy in Dogs with Immune-mediated Diseases
(2014-09-10)
Two immunomodulator drugs, leflunomide (teriflunomide is its active metabolite) and cyclosporine, are often monitored in veterinary patients in order to support the design of dosing regimens when used to treat immune-mediated ...
Therapeutic effects of aniracetam on cognitive deficits induced by ethanol teratogenicity: A novel treatment approach through synaptic AMPA receptor modulation
