Implementing Simulation into Oncology Education
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Nurses, who choose oncology, face complex challenges on a daily basis due to the disease itself and the effects of its treatment. The purpose of the project was to examine the effect implementing simulation into the education ...
Compassion Fatigue in Critical Care Nursing and Development of an Educational Module
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Compassion fatigue is a troubling phenomenon which affects those in care giving roles, and nurses are especially susceptible. The first purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of compassion fatigue among ...
Utilization of Modified Starch as a Fat Replacement in Bread
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Since industrial revolution, scientist started to develop new bread formulations in order to improve bread quality and shelf life. This research investigated the effectiveness of octenyl succinate anhydride (OSA) modified ...
Composition and Stability of Phytochemicals during Food Processing
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Dietary phytochemicals are thought to reduce the incidence of chronic degenerative diseases. The concentration of these phytochemicals has been extensively studied, but less is known about their stability during food ...

Gorenstein Dimension over Some Rings of the Form R [0 plus]C
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Commutative algebra is the study of commutative rings and other abstract structures based on commutative rings. Modules can be viewed as a common generalization of several of those structures, and some invariants, e.g. ...
Semidualizing DG Modules over Tensor Products
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
In this dissertation, we study rings: sets with addition, subtraction, and multiplication. One way to study a ring is by studying its modules: the algebraic objects the ring acts on. Since it is impractical to study all ...
Modeling Swap and Geophysical Analysis using Barndorff-Nielson and Shephard Model
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Video summarizing Ph.D. dissertation for a non-specialist audience.
L1 Approximation in De Branges Spaces
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
In this thesis we study bandlimited approximations to various functions. Bandlimited functions
have compactly supported Fourier transforms, which is a desirable feature in many applications.
In particular, we address the ...
Modeling Financial Swaps and Geophysical data Using the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard Model
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
This dissertation uses Barndoff-Nielsen and Shephard (BN-S) models to model swap, a type of financial derivative, and analyze geophysical data for estimation of major earthquakes. From empirical observation of the stock ...
