Lithium Ionic Conductivity and Stability Of Cubic Li7La3Zr2O12 Solid Electrolyte A First-Principles Study
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Garnet structured cubic LLZO crystal (Li56La24Zr16O96) is one of the most promising solid electrolytes for next-generation solid-state lithium-ion batteries. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations have been employed to ...
A Negative Dielectrophoresis Based Method of Detecting Pancreatic Cancer Antigen CA 242 in Serum
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Patients with pancreatic cancer in metastasis rarely survive, thus the need for diagnostic tools for early stage detection. Current techniques such as ELISA and SPR are complex and expensive and cannot detect cancer in its ...
Extraction of Electromagnetic Properties of Metamaterials with Branch Compensation from Phase Tracking
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
In the field of electromagnetism, there are materials known as metamaterials which exhibit unique properties that can be exploited. Permittivity, defined as capacitance per meter, of a metamaterial can vary over frequency ...
Using Classification and Clustering to Predict and Understand Student Behavior in an Innovation-Based Learning Course
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
One of the Grand Challenges for Engineering is advancing personalized learning, but challenges remain to identify and understand potential student pathways. This is especially difficult in complex, open-ended learning ...
State-Space Randles Cell Model for Instrument Calibration
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
It is desirable to calibrate electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) instrumentation using a Randles circuit. This presents a challenge as realistic loads, simulated by this circuit, contain theoretical components ...
Novel K2W7O22/Ti3C2 Nanocomposite-Based Sensor Device for Breath Acetone Analysis in Diabetic Patients
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Acetone in exhaled breath is gaining attention as a non-invasive means of quantifying blood glucose levels in Diabetics. This calls for development of novel biosensors for the detection of trace concentrations of acetone ...
A far-field radio frequency experimental exposure system for yeast: creating a new standard
(North Dakota State University, 2024)
This paper presents a framework for investigating the potential effects of radiofrequency (RF) exposure on gene expression and cellular processes. Utilizing Schizosaccharomyces Pombe (S. pombe) as a model organism and ...
Using wing flap sounds to distinguish individual birds
(North Dakota State University, 2024)
Ornithologist often need to recognize individual birds, but traditional invasive methods, such as capturing, marking, releasing, and recapturing of birds, have limitations. To overcome this, researchers use non-invasive ...
Large spacecraft medium voltage DC (MVDC) power and propulsion system
(North Dakota State University, 2024)
This thesis introduces a medium voltage direct-current (MVDC) system for large spacecrafts with megawatt (MW)-scale power and propulsion systems for interplanetary transport. The proposed MVDC system comprises a nuclear ...
