Development and Integration of Tactile Sensing System
Creators: name: Agarwal, Rishabh
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Robotics
subject: Teacher education
subject: Integration
subject: Manipulation
subject: Tactile Sensors

description: To grasp and manipulate complex objects, robots require information about

the interaction between the end effector and the object. This work describes the

integration of a low-cost 3-axis tactile sensing system into two different robotic

systems and the measurement of some of these complex interactions. The sensor

itself is small, lightweight, and compliant so that it can be integrated within a variety

of end effectors and locations on those end effectors (e.g. wrapped around a finger).

To improve usability and data collection, a custom interface board and ROS (Robot

Operating System) package were developed to read the sensor data and interface

with the robots and grippers. Sensor data has been collected from four different

tasks: 1. pick and place of non-conductive and conductive objects, 2. wrist-based

manipulation, 3. peeling tape, and 4. human interaction with a grasped object. In

the last task, a closed loop controller is used to adjust the grip force on the grasped

object while the human interacts with it.
SURVEY ON HEALTH DEVICE USE BY MTURK PARTICIPANTS
Creators: name: Ramesh, Shankar
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Demography
subject: FOS: Sociology

description: Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is a crowd-sourcing platform provided by Amazon that helps in the distribution of micro-tasks among a user-base of thousands of registered participants. It has attracted many researchers due to its low cost and fast response time, and many task-participants due to easy and quick cash, and anonymity. Researchers have started using MTurk to implement innovative ideas for collecting datasets. One potential use of MTurk is to recruit participants in research involving the collection of health monitoring data. Little is known about the demographics of MTurk users who collect health monitoring data and their willingness to provide those data for research purposes. In this study, we aim to characterize the demographics and willingness of MTurk users to share data from health monitoring technologies for research. Findings from this work enable researchers to assess the appropriateness of MTurk as a source to recruit individuals willing to share personal health monitoring data.

Moving Milk: Public Health, Milk Transportation, and Modal Choices in Baltimore, 1840-1940

subject: Train
subject: Truck

description: This thesis studies the factors leading to the modal shift from rail to road in Baltimore’s farm to city milk transportation in the 1920s. It draws on histories of transportation, public health, food, and business to maintain that progressive public health regulation, driven by calls for reform of the milk supply, created an oligopoly for which trucks better suited vertical integration goals. This research highlights the relevance of public health policy to the study of transportation regulation and modal competition. Secondarily, this thesis establishes railroads as a primary actor in the 19th century rise in urban milk consumption.
Web Aesthetics and the Erosion of the Real

description: This paper argues that the visual language of the web as it exists today is a collection of simulations of the physical world that have, over time, replaced their referents; moreover, the current visual landscape of the web reflects its pervasiveness in every aspect of life. The early history of design for the web was shaped by visual metaphors in early GUIs, which used references to familiar physical objects to guide users. In its early days, web design was limited to creating readable pages with some visually interesting elements. As web technology became more robust, web design was able to develop its own design conventions, aesthetic trends, and user expectations, and designers faced fewer limitations in designing for the web. Today, the web plays a critical role in everyday life; contemporary web aesthetics are self-referential and no longer reliant on references to the physical world that the web has eclipsed.

DEVELOPING AN IN SITU SPRAYABLE BIOSCAFFOLD WITH ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES AS AN EMERGENCY BURN WOUND DRESSING

subject: Silver
subject: Solution Blowspinning

description: Commercially available silver dressings and their associated application/removal protocols suffer from several serious drawbacks, including: inability to monitor the burn wound beneath the opaque dressing, high costs, traumatic debridement due to a non-degradable mesh, delays involved with transporting a patient to a location where sterile conditions can be maintained, and restrictions upon when a silver dressing can be used.    The results of this work present a promising proof of concept for an in situ sprayable synthetic polymer containing a silver salt that was found to allow for wound observation (transitions to clear at body temperature), degrade in a biocompatible manner, release broad-spectrum antimicrobial silver in a controlled manner, and can be safely applied in the acute period following a burn in the absence of sterile conditions with little detriment to wound healing in vivo and less than 20% reduced viability in vitro.

description: Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a widespread issue that affects the physical and mental health of its survivors. Because of the severity of the outcomes, it is important that clinicians understand potential risk and protective factors in regard to providing the best outcomes for their clients. Under the framework of the stress-buffering hypothesis, this study explored the association between IPV and a woman’s self-compassion, as well as the role of social support as a variable moderating that association. It was hypothesized that higher levels of IPV victimization would be associated with lower levels of self-compassion among women with experiences of IPV. In addition, social support was hypothesized to weaken the association between IPV and individuals’ self-compassion. Data collected from a sample of women in abusive relationships (n=61) was analyzed using linear regression and a test for moderation. Results indicated that there was no significant association between IPV victimization and self-compassion. However, the interaction between IPV and social support tended toward significance. Contrary to the second hypothesis, among women with higher levels of social support, greater IPV was associated with lower self-compassion. Implications for clinical practice when working with this population are discussed.
INCREASED INDIVIDUAL SIZE AND ITS POTENTIAL EFFECTS ON EMERGENCY EVACUATION SCENARIOS
Creators: name: Ahrens, Katherine
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Engineering
subject: Body Size
subject: Egress
subject: Evacuation

description: The increase in human body size due to obesity and overweight conditions is recognized as becoming more prevalent throughout the world. The effect which increased body size and weight has on movement has been examined from a kinesiological and physiological standpoint. Its effect on egress during emergency evacuation has largely remained unstudied.

This study reviews current data on body size using modeling software to examine the potential impact an increase in body size has on evacuation times and whether that impact is significant enough to warrant potential changes to current code and regulatory requirements. The change in body size distribution is analyzed and tests are conducted at increasing body size intervals of 0.025 meters for six different scenarios. Results indicate that an increase of 0.225 meters to a body radius increases evacuation times in simple scenarios between 12% and 72%.

subject: Sugar

description: The capture of New Orleans by Union forces in 1862 led to the emancipation of thousands of slaves across Louisiana’s sugar parishes. This early emancipation preceded the abolition of slavery elsewhere in the South, and it held far-reaching implications for the freedpeople of the sugar parishes. In this thesis, I argue that early emancipation fostered the rise of a powerful black body politic in the sugar parishes that would endure throughout Reconstruction and beyond. This body politic aimed to protect black people’s unique conception of freedom as both white Southerners and white Northerners endeavored to circumscribe that freedom for their own purposes. In pursuit of this goal, the mobilized sugar workers employed a broad range of political tools, ranging from extralegal violence to labor organization. These methods proved effective and safeguarded the freedom of black sugar workers for decades after the Civil War despite attempts by both Democrats and Radical Republicans to dissolve and demarcate that freedom respectively.

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Creative writing

description: Caleb is a post-apocalyptic novel set in the Philadelphia suburbs. The novel begins fifteen years after a genetically engineered version of smallpox ravages the country, killing 90% of the population. The present tense of the novel follows Caleb Rivas and his partner Elia Morris as they become embroiled in a refugee crisis propelled by unchecked climate change and racial tensions that have survived the smallpox plague. As their home is engulfed in the crisis, Caleb is confronted with a part of his past he thought was long gone, forcing him to reckon with his relationship to his mixed Mexican American heritage. Through these events, in addition to flashbacks from before the plague, the novel aims to explore how toxic and unequal power structures might survive or be dismantled in the aftermath of unprecedented disaster, in addition to how these power structures inform and interact with the characters’ identities.

description: The present study examined the potential mediating role of perceptions of general campus climate on the relationship between disability status and institutional satisfaction across two independent university samples—both of which are large predominately white midwestern institutions in the United States. Consistent with the proposed hypotheses, disability status was negatively related to general campus climate perceptions and institutional satisfaction and positively correlated with institutional satisfaction. In both samples, perceptions of general campus climate significantly explained the link between disability status and institutional satisfaction. In the first sample, perceptions of general campus climate partially mediated the aforementioned connection. However, in the second sample, perceptions of general campus climate fully mediated disability status and college student satisfaction. Findings, implications, and limitations are discussed.

description: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a neuromodulation technique that has recently been studied as an adjunct to speech-language therapy in persons with primary progressive aphasia (PPA).  Preliminary studies have shown improved language abilities with tDCS-supplemented therapy, primarily in naming, as well as improved generalization and maintenance of skills.  However, the effects of tDCS on narrative abilities have not yet been well studied in this population.  The present study examined whether the addition of tDCS to anomia therapy improved narrative language measures in 16 participants with PPA versus sham stimulation plus therapy.  Results demonstrated that tDCS did not significantly improve narrative language measures in participants with PPA.
Examining the Role Dietary Habits Play with Food Access, Stress, and Chronic Conditions Among African-Americans

Subjects: subject: Public health

description: African-Americans experience higher rates of chronic conditions, are more likely to live in low food access communities and not adhere to dietary recommendations. Limited research analyzes African-American adults’ diet and food access by specific neighborhood. This thesis, a secondary data analysis, used Health Advocates In-Reach and Research(HAIR) data, a study evaluating family health history intervention to promote cancer screening. Participants(n=164) were recruited from barbershops/salons in low-income neighborhoods in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. Baseline data was used to assess diet, food access, and chronic conditions with demographics, stress, and lifestyle behaviors. Over half of participants were female(54.3%), obese(51.8%), and lived in low-income and low access neighborhoods(57.3%). Bivariate analysis found associations between body mass index with income and meals away from home(p0.05). Multivariate analysis found those who earned less income and consumed more meals away from home were less likely to be overweight/obese(p0.05). This information can inform behavioral and systems-based interventions.

description: Muslim Americans may experience conflict between societal norms and the values of their religion with respect to mate selection. Whereas American norms prioritize autonomy and love, Muslim societies prioritize family and chastity. This study assessed the extent to which Muslim and American identities impact (1) desire to involve family in mate selection and (2) willingness to enter romantic relationships without considering marriage. Researchers partnered with a Muslim matrimonial and dating mobile app to survey U.S. users, resulting in 962 responses. Muslim identity and American identity were both found to be significantly correlated to mate selection practices. Results suggest most Muslim Americans are caught between models: they are transitioning away from traditional mate selection practices which rely on parents to find partners, a major shift in the last 30 years. However, they are also not willing to adopt American practices which do not consider marriage, such as casual dating.

subject: Operations research
subject: alternatives
subject: decision making
subject: decision theory
subject: multi attribute decision making

description: In case of multi-attribute decisions, when a decision maker has a limited budget for data collection, then the decision maker has to decide on the number of samples to observe from each alternative and its attributes. This allocation decision is of importance when the observation process is uncertain, such as with physical measurements. This thesis presents a sequential allocation approach in which measurements are conducted one at a time. Prior to making a measurement the decision-maker’s current knowledge of the attribute values is used to identify the attribute and alternative pair to sample next using all these allocation procedures.  The thesis discusses a simulations study that was performed to compare the Sequential Allocation Approach, Proportional Allocation Approach and Uniform Allocation Approach. We evaluated the frequency of selecting the true best alternative when the attribute value observations contain discrete random measurement error.  The results indicate that the sequential approach is significantly better than the other approaches when the budget is small; as the budget increases, its advantage decreases.

Title of Thesis: COSTUME DESIGN FOR SHOOK

M. Jeannette Christensen, Master of Fine Arts, 2018

Thesis Directed By: Professor Helen Huang, Department of Theatre, Dance and Performance Studies

This document is a thorough description of the costume design process, from concept to execution, for Shook. This fully devised dance piece was written, choreographed, and directed by third year Master of Fine Arts Candidate in Dance, Latefia Bradley. Shook was one of two dance pieces as part of the Fall 2017 semester’s Master of Fine Arts Dance Thesis Concert. The creative collaborators of design and production included Scenic Designer Katie Steponek, Scenic Supervisor Emily Lotz, Costume Designer Jeannette Christensen, Lighting Designer Peter Leibold, Projections Designer Alexandra Kelly Colburn, and Sound Designer Jeffrey Dorffman. The written portion of this thesis includes the costume designer’s original conceptual research; working preliminary and final costume renderings; fitting photos; organized paperwork samples; and completed production photographs. This document describes, in detail, the ideas behind creating the concept for the costume design of Shook. Also, how this concept developed over time in conjunction with the choreographer/director’s needs and inspiration. This production was produced by the University of Maryland School of Theatre, Dance, and Performance Studies and ran from October 13th-15th, 2017.
THE EFFECTS OF UNMITIGATED IDLE TIME ON THE PERFORMANCE OF MAGNETORHEOLOGICAL DAMPERS AS A STRUCTURAL PROTECTIVE SYSTEM.

subject: Structures

description: This thesis discusses the long-term performance degradation of seismic protective systems due to age and inactivity (termed “idle time effects”). Over the lifetime of a structures there is the potential for a significant reduction in ability for the structural control systems to mitigate earthquakes. This can affect the resilience of the structure and lead to uncertainty in engineering judgement when designing seismic protective systems. Further research into these idle time effects could help to create solutions to mitigate age-dependent performance loss. This paper will use magneto-rheological (MR) dampers, which serve as a good analog for other semi-active control devices, to study idle time effects on seismic protection. MR dampers provide controllable damping through the magnetization of small MR particles in a carrier fluid. These particles can settle over time, influencing their performance. Using a model MR fluid, accelerated testing was performed to analyze the consequences of idle time.

EVALUATING TREATMENT HETEROGENEITY IN THE COMMUNITY MEDIATION MARYLAND RE-ENTRY PROGRAM

subject: re-entry
subject: social support

description: To assist soon-to-be released prisoners in their re-entry process, the Community Mediation Maryland Re-Entry (CMM) program focuses on strengthening pre-existing pro-social relationships and assisting in the development of re-entry plans.  Prior evaluations suggest this program is successful at reducing recidivism, but given the varied nature of the treatment, important questions remain.  This thesis investigates potential treatment heterogeneity based on the subjects’ selection into different formats of the mediation process (i.e., selection of outside participants, focusing on emotional support, and reaching an agreement). The investigations into potential treatment heterogeneity (e.g., propensity score models) reveal null results. In the context of the prior evaluations, it is possible that the null results reflect that CMM is a generally effective program. Future research should consider capturing a larger sample of subjects mediating in the program so that subsequent evaluations can investigate important distinctions in the treatment received, which may be valuable in guiding future implementation of the re-entry mediation model.

description: Due to the essential nature of wetlands and their historic losses, wetland restoration has been a recent focus of conservation activity. The objective of this study was to compare selected physical soil properties and those properties and processes associated with carbon sequestration in restored and natural freshwater depressional wetlands on the Delmarva Peninsula. Three distinct hydrological zones within nine restored and five natural wetlands were sampled and monitored over the course of a year. As a result of earthmoving activities, restored wetlands demonstrated significant compaction, potentially limiting root and hydrological infiltration. Restored wetlands also demonstrated shorter periods of saturation, which led to increased carbon decomposition rates. As a result of soil disturbance, restored wetlands had significantly lower carbon stocks than natural wetlands. Restored wetlands also demonstrated no difference in carbon content across the three hydrological zones, the time since restoration being too short for carbon stocks to appreciably accumulate.

description: The story of my life and the story of my art are intrinsically connected. Through a personally authored story, that I identified as possessing the universal framework of the monomyth (as identified by Joseph Campbell), I became interested in the universal tendencies of humankind. My work synthesizes disparate topics into a new narrative space where parallels are drawn between the personal, extrapersonal, and the universal. In the project The Crown: Paradise Reclaimed, the quest for the ultimate boon, is examined through the stories of myself and others and centers around three locations: Baltimore, Utah, and Iceland.
