A Refractive Index Study of a Diverse Set of Polymeric Materials by QSPR with Quantum-Chemical and Additive Descriptors
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
In silico methods is a cost- and time-effective way to synthesize materials. Refractive index (n) is an important
characteristic of an optical material. This work contains a quantitative structure–property relationship ...
Converting 3D Point Cloud Data into 2D Occupancy Grids suitable for Robot Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Point clouds are a common data type in robotics applications. They allow a robot to “see” its environment. Unfortunately, its use for path planning is somewhat limited. There is just too much data for a robot to look through ...
3-D Printing: A New Approach to Water Filtration
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
People often find themselves in situations where clean drinking water is not readily available. One solution to this problem is the use of portable water filters. However, some water filters are too expensive or bulky to ...
Investigation of Potential Anti-Microbial Agents Capable of Inhibiting the Growth of Microorganisms Associated with Dental Implantation-related Infections
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Statement of Problem: Approximately 500,000 dental implant procedures are performed every year, and this number is growing exponentially [1]. Data have shown that these operations have a failure rate of around 5 percent ...
Effect of coagulants in removing cyanotoxin-microcystinin drinking water treatment process
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
The presence of cyanotoxins in source water is a worldwide problem. The most widespread cyanotoxin, called microcystins (MCs), produced from Microcystis Aeroginosa, can cause severe problems to the environment, animals and ...
Ruggedness Test for Density Measurements of Flax Fiber
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Density is a fundamental physical property of a reinforcement for composites. It appears widely in calculations, which are mostly used for engineering designs. The density of homogeneous solid materials is generally ...
North Dakota State University Student Attitudes and Behaviors toward Stair Usage: Submitted to the Red River Valley Research Cooperative
(North Dakota State University, 10/24/2018)
Visuals promoting stair use encouraged NDSU students to use the stairs instead of the elevator in different academic buildings on campus. Within the academic buildings, we recorded how many people took the stairs or the ...
DDGS Based 3D Printing Biocomposite Filament
(North Dakota State University, 2020-04)
Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is a rapidly evolving technology with applications in many different industries. The market for 3D printing material, filament, is expected to grow to $4.4 billion by 2023. ...
Medication Safety and Opioid Risk Screenings Conducted by Nurses in Patients' Homes
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Home health patients are at risk of medication safety issues due to lack of pharmacy follow up. A Home Health Screening Program was created by NDSU’s ONE Program to expand medication safety and opioid risk screenings to ...
Research of Sandy Hook Elementary, the New and Improved
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
School safety has been a part of the political discussion all over the world about both large scale (a country) and small (a city). According to US News, for the school year 2020-2021 alone, there were a total of 93 schools ...
