Activation of molecular hydrogen and olefins in solution by triphenylphosphine complexes of bivalent ruthenium
Creators: name: Markham, Larry Derwood
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Kinetic and equilibrium studies involving solutions of dichlorotris-(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II) and the corresponding hydridochloro complex are described, especially reactions involving molecular hydrogen and olefins. In benzene or in dimethylacetamide (DMA) solution, the dichloro complex dissociates with loss of a triphenylphosphine molecule, [See Thesis for equation] and in DMA solution, further dissociation of chloride ion from the bisphosphine complex occurs: [See Thesis for equation]. DMA solutions of RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃ react rapidly and reversibly with molecular hydrogen at room temperature, for example, [See Thesis for equation]. This hydrogenolysis reaction does not occur in benzene solution, but the basic amide solvent promotes hydride formation by effectively stabilizing the released HCl. The relative reactivity toward H₂ of the species present in solution is as follows: RuCl(PPh₃)₂⁺ > RuCl₂(PPh₃)₂ > RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃. For the reverse reaction between hydride complex and HCl, the reactivity order of species present is RuClH(PPh₃)₂ > RuClH(PPh₃)₃. Thermodynamic and kinetic data are given for equilibria such as (3), and thermodynamic data are presented for equilibria (1) and (2). The hydride complex RuClH(PPh₃)₃ is an extremely effective catalyst for the homogeneous hydrogenation of olefins in DMA solution at 35°. Unfavorable steric and electronic factors in the olefin both play a major role in reducing the rate of hydrogenation; these effects can be correlated with the proposed reaction mechanism, which involves a predissociation of the catalyst and the formation of a σ-alkyl intermediate via a hydrido-olefin species: [See Thesis for equation]. Equilibrium constants for reaction (5) with a variety of olefins, are presented together with rate data for reaction (6). Limited studies have been carried out using the corresponding hydridobromo and hydrido-acetate complexes. The hydride complex RuClH(PPh₃)₃ > isolated as a DMA solvate, is also effective as a catalyst for the polymerization of both ethylene and butadiene in DMA solution. The kinetics of these reactions have been studied and analyzed in terms of a mechanism that involves initial formation of a σ-alkyl complex, and propagation via insertion of coordinated olefin into the Ru-carbon bond, for example, [See Thesis for equation]. The ethylene and butadiene systems show different kinetic dependences which are accounted for by the stronger complexing of the diene.

title: Eportfolio Adoption's Mediating Influence On Faculty Perspectives: An Activity Theory View
Creators: name: Thomas, Jonathan M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2017

description: A case-comparative mixed methods approach was used to discover how faculty members’ teaching perspectives changed as they adopted an eportfolio tool (Pathbrite). Ten faculty members took the Teaching Perspectives Inventory (TPI) before and after using the tool during Fall semester 2015. Also, systems logs were collected and interviews were conducted after the post survey was completed. Interview data found that faculty members developed a broader view of the potential of eportfolios. Participants also appreciated the long-term benefits that eportfolios would have on their students. However, when use was associated with accreditation standards, gains in student-centered perspectives were minimal. The study suggests cognitive apprenticeship as a model that explains the discovered findings and provides recommendations to administrators who are implementing eportfolios.

Improving quality of dried hardwood
Creators: name: Redman, AL
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This thesis contains three sections of work. The first section of this work is principally aimed at producing resistance and capacitance type meter species correction data for a commercially popular species of Tasmanian Eaucalypt, Eaucalyptus delegatensis. The resistance type meter correction data obtained deviate from those values given in the Australian Standard. Differences in resistance meter electrode placement are assumed to be the cause of the deviations. Regression trendlines obtained for the capacitance-type moisture meters were shown to have a lesser degree of accuracy than those for the resistance-type moisture meters due to the effects of density. The practice of measuring the average moisture content at a depth of 115th of the thickness of a board using insulated probes in conjunction with resistance-type moisture meters was reinforced. The second part of this project involved work on a solar kiln situated at Kelly's Timber - Dunally. The purpose of the work was to try and improve the drying efficiency of the kiln and monitor it's progress throughout the drying process. Three drying trials were performed. A full schedule was provided for one of the trials where green sawn timber was fully dried to EMC. The success of the schedule was tainted by the poor quality of the timber before the drying process began. Air flow was improved throughout the kiln by the use of appropriate baffling and racking of the timber as recommended by the author. The temperature distribution and humidity control inside the kiln was found to be satisfactory. The final section of this research involved improving the drying efficiency of three Tasmanian industrial timber drying kilns. This work is still currently underway at the time of writing this thesis. Written reports have been submitted to the appropriate personnel regarding recommendations made from initial investigations. These reports are appended to this thesis.

description: This study investigates the response of a high resolution coupled physical-ecosystem model simulations to initial and boundary conditions (IBCs) from various sources. For this purpose, we used physical parameters from the data sets World Ocean Atlas (WOA09), CSIRO Atlas of Regional Seas (CARS09) and North Indian Ocean Atlas (NIOA). Evaluating model simulated fields with standard validation data suggests that all three experiments could resolve most of the known surface and subsurface features of the Bay of Bengal (BoB) but with considerable differences in salinity and chlorophyll –a (Chl-a) and negligible differences in temperature among model simulations with various IBCs. The modeled Chl-a is well simulated with WOA09 as compared to NIOA and CARS09 data for climatological model simulations, with a correlation of 0.52 for the BoB. Moreover, the vertical distribution of Chl-a is found to be a function of nutrient supply to the base of the euphotic layer and mixed layer. These results significantly highlight the implicit and explicit use of IBCs for better representation of Chl-a concentration in the BoB from a high-resolution coupled model.

title: Shallow Bones
Creators: name: Cook, Brian Lee
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2017

description: Shallow Bones is a creative thesis examining the culture of persecution within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints alongside my own story of persecution as a gay man. The religion rose through persecution as Joseph Smith, the prophet of the church, faced harassment and personal attacks from outsiders. His assassination spurred devote followers to move west, away from their persecutors. Setting up in the Utah territory, early Mormons feared invasions to the point that they murdered pioneers passing through Mountain Meadows. Murderers hid their wrongdoing, and the religion has institutionalized a pattern of persecution—blaming others for attacks while denying responsibility for choices that harm others. The recent suicide of Jack Reese, a gay teenager in Northern Utah, has shown how some in the religion continue to persecute others while burying the guilt for these acts.
My own story follows my own experience of persecution within the church. Self-hatred came from lessons I learned as a child, both within the church and from my families. I almost attempted suicide, but I decided to reach out for help. Unlike Jack Reese’s family, my family worked towards acceptance. Although the culture around pushed me towards despair, I learned how to accept myself.
These historical and personal threads within the creative thesis come together to show that Utah’s violent history continues to push persecution onto people every day; however, I was able to find a way to love myself while surrounded by ongoing hatred. Even when the predominant culture actively discriminates against a group, people have hope to escape the cycle of persecution.

description: We analyze optical soliton propagation in the presence of weak absorption lines with much narrower linewidths as compared to the soliton spectrum width using the novel perturbation analysis technique based on an integral representation in the spectral domain. The stable soliton acquires spectral modulation that follows the associated index of refraction of the absorber. The model can be applied to ordinary soliton propagation and to an absorber inside a passively modelocked laser. In the latter case, a comparison with water vapor absorption in a femtosecond Cr:ZnSe laser yields a very good agreement with experiment. Compared to the conventional absorption measurement in a cell of the same length, the signal is increased by an order of magnitude. The obtained analytical expressions allow further improving of the sensitivity and spectroscopic accuracy making the soliton absorption spectroscopy a promising novel measurement technique.

title: Relationships Between Psychogenic Needs and Theoretical Frameworks of Psychotherapists
Creators: name: Ahern, Dennis E.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1983

description: Each psychotherapist has a personal theoretical framework, that is, a set of assumptions on which his or her psychotherapy is based. It appears from the published writings and opinions of therapists that therapists generally concur that a major factor in the formation of an individual therapist's theoretical framework is the therapist's personality. This study was designed to address this issue by examining the relationship between the psychogenic needs and theoretical framework of the therapist.
From an accessible population of 178, responses were obtained from 153 therapist participants (108 males and 45 females) from five Utah training programs and three experience levels. Each of the participants completed a measure of theoretical framework (developed by the author) which assessed general adherence to the principles and techniques of person-centered, behavioral, and rational-emotive therapy. Based on scales from Jackson's Personality Research Form the following psychogenic need variables were also derived: Need for Achievement, Need for Affiliation, Need for Dominance, Need for Exhibition, Need to Give Nurturance, and Need for Order. Other independent variables were based on the experience levels and training programs of the therapists.
Multiple regression analyses yielded uniformly small (less than 13.5% variance accounted for), generally non-significant relationships. The only clear relationship between a psychogenic need and the theoretical framework variables was between Need for Affiliation and the person-centered therapy variables. The experience level of the therapist accounted for the greatest portion of variance in the behavior therapy variables. There was no clear relationship between the rational-emotive therapy variables and any of the independent variables.
The low magnitude of these results may be partially explained by the relatively low reliability of the research variables. Further, if a relationship does exist between psychogenic needs and theoretical framework, it may not be a linear relationship which was the assumptive basis of the analyses used in the research.
An interesting finding was that scores of concurrence with the three theoretical schools had positive intercorrelations of between .14 and .54. An implication of this finding is that theoretical framework may be multidimensional versus unidimensional as it has previously been conceptualized.
In summary, this research does not support the relationship between the psychogenic needs and theoretical framework of the therapist. However, given the theoretical emphasis placed on the topic, and the difficulties with this research, further research in the area appears warranted before the issues can be more definitely resolved.

description: Six flash nonfiction comic essays composed in direct conversation with the combination of the flash nonfiction form and the comic form make up the body of this creative thesis. In addition to this creative work, a comparison of several essential craft aspects of flash nonfiction and comic composition are discussed, and an argument is made for the benefit of melding the two forms. This hybrid genre of flash nonfiction comics benefits from aspects of both forms craft, including: heightened potency of images and themes, a dependence on association, and narrative structures based on expanding larger ideas from “miniatures.” The comic form’s difficulties in dealing with nonfiction approaches to authorial presence and figurative language is also discussed.
Ultimately, the melding of the flash nonfiction form and the comic form creates valuable opportunities for both genres and their writers—as the six flash nonfiction comic essays, which make up the body of this creative thesis, illustrate.

description: The geodetic Corsica site was set up in 1998 in order to perform altimeter calibration of the TOPEX/Poseidon (T/P) mission and subsequently, Jason-1, OSTM/Jason-2, Jason-3 and more recently Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich (launched on November, 21 2020). The aim of the present study held in June 2015 is to validate a recently developed GNSS-based sea level instrument (called CalNaGeo) that is designed with the intention to map Sea Surface Heights (SSH) over large areas. This has been undertaken using the well-defined geodetic infrastructure deployed at Senetosa Cape, and involved the estimation of the stability of the waterline (and thus the instantaneous separation of a GNSS antenna from water level) as a function of the velocity at which the instrument is towed. The results show a largely linear relationship which is approximately 1 mm/(m/s) up to a maximum practical towing speed of ∼10 knots (∼5 m/s). By comparing to the existing “geoid” map, it is also demonstrated that CalNaGeo can measure a sea surface slope with a precision better than 1 mm/km (∼2.5% of the physical slope). Different processing techniques are used and compared including GNSS Precise Point Positioning (PPP, where the goal is to extend SSH mapping far from coastal GNSS reference stations) showing an agreement at the 1-2 cm level.
title: Spatio-temporal History of Fluid-rock Interaction in the Hurricane Fault Zone
Creators: name: Koger, Jace
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2017

description: The Hurricane Fault is a 250-km long, west dipping, Basin and Range-bounding normal fault in SW Utah and NW Arizona that initiated in the mid-Miocene to Pliocene. It has been primarily active in the Quaternary, with slip rates of 0.2 – 0.6 mm/yr. There are multiple hot springs along its 250-km length and multiple late Tertiary-Quaternary basaltic centers broadly parallel the fault. Possible sources of hot spring fluids include deeply-circulated meteoric water that experienced water-rock exchange at high temperatures (>100 °C) and deep-seated crustal fluids. Aside from the source of modern hot spring fluids and heat, questions about the spatio-temporal history of fluid flow along the Hurricane Fault remain unaddressed. Abundant damage zone veins, cements, and host rock alteration are present, indicative of past fluid flow. Carbonate veining and cementation is a key feature of the Hurricane Fault zone, and is the primary feature exploited to characterize the thermochemical history of fault-related paleofluids. A combination of macroscopic and microscopic carbonate observations, chemical composition, and precipitation temperature of calcite veins was used to determine past water-rock diagenetic interaction and vein evolution in the Hurricane Fault zone. Calcite iv in concretions and veins from the damage zone of the fault shows a wide range of carbon and oxygen stable isotope ratios, with δ13CPDB from -4.5 to 3.8 ‰ and δ18OPDB from -17.7 to -1.1‰. Fluid inclusion microthermometry homogenization temperatures range from 45 to 160 °C, with fluid salinities of 0 to 15 wt% NaCl calculated from melting temperatures. Combining the two datasets, two main fluids that interacted with the fault zone are inferred: (1) basin brines with a δ 18OSMOW of 9.2 ‰ and (2) altered meteoric fluids with a δ 18OSMOW of -11.9 to -8.3 ‰. Calculated dissolved CO2 δ 13CPDB (-8.5 to -1.3 ‰) indicates mixed marine carbonate and organic or magmatic sources. Fault zone diagenesis was caused by meteoric water infiltration and interaction with carbonate-rich rocks, mixed with upwelling basin brines. Fluid-rock interaction is concentrated in the damage zone, where fracture-related permeability was utilized for fluid flow. A distinct mineralization event punctuated this history, associated with basin brines that were chemically influenced by nearby basaltic magmatism. This implies a hydrologic connection between the fault and regional magmatism.

The project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.
Span programs and quantum query complexity: The general adversary bound is nearly tight for every boolean function

description: The general adversary bound is a semi-definite program (SDP) that lower-bounds the quantum query complexity of a function. We turn this lower bound into an upper bound, by giving a quantum walk algorithm based on the dual SDP that has query complexity at most the general adversary bound, up to a logarithmic factor. In more detail, the proof has two steps, each based on "span programs," a certain linear-algebraic model of computation. First, we give an SDP that outputs for any boolean function a span program computing it that has optimal "witness size." The optimal witness size is shown to coincide with the general adversary lower bound. Second, we give a quantum algorithm for evaluating span programs with only a logarithmic query overhead on the witness size. The first result is motivated by a quantum algorithm for evaluating composed span programs. The algorithm is known to be optimal for evaluating a large class of formulas. The allowed gates include all constant-size functions for which there is an optimal span program. So far, good span programs have been found in an ad hoc manner, and the SDP automates this procedure. Surprisingly, the SDP's value equals the general adversary bound. A corollary is an optimal quantum algorithm for evaluating "balanced" formulas over any finite boolean gate set. The second result extends span programs' applicability beyond the formula evaluation problem. A strong universality result for span programs follows. A good quantum query algorithm for a problem implies a good span program, and vice versa. Although nearly tight, this equivalence is nontrivial. Span programs are a promising model for developing more quantum algorithms.

title: International Policy Diffusion and Religious Freedom, 1990-2008
Creators: name: Hale, Allison R.
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: Why do governments restrict religious freedom? As more and more governments have adopted restrictive policies over the past thirty years, scholars have traditionally examined internal domestic factors—such as the role of democratic governance, economic growth, or internal competition—that may influence government choices. I build on this literature by extending the discussion to external factors, arguing that some policies may also spread from one government to another. This process, identified by scholars as the idea of policy diffusion, may occur in several ways.
While previous research has focused on the spread of policies that are generally considered positive (i.e. the spread of democracy), I extend the literature by specifically focusing on the spread of restrictive policies. I argue that these policies may spread across countries through several specific mechanisms: geographic neighbors may observe each other, policymakers may learn generally from the adoption of policies throughout the world, countries may imitate the examples of others they consider powerful, or the merits of a policy may be socially constructed within groups of countries that have similar cultures.
To examine these theoretical assumptions, I first compile a dataset that captures years of policy adoption for twenty types of restrictive government religion policy based on the information available from the Religion and State (RAS) Project for 175 countries between 1990 and 2008. I then test the data with several statistical models that allow me to compare the extent to which the proposed mechanisms change the likelihood that a government will adopt a restrictive policy. Through these tests, I find moderate statistical support for the assumption that all four of the policy mechanisms examined increase the odds of restrictive policy adoption.

Decay of the toroidal field in magnetically driven jets

description: A 3D simulation of a non-relativistic, magnetically driven jet propagating in a stratified atmosphere is presented, covering about three decades in distance and two decades in sideways expansion. The simulation captures the jet acceleration through the critical surfaces and the development of (kink-)instabilities driven by the free energy in the toroidal magnetic field component. The instabilities destroy the ordered helical structure of the magnetic field, dissipating the toroidal field energy on a length scale of about 2-15 times the Alfven distance. We compare the results with a 2.5D (axisymmetric) simulation, which does not become unstable. The acceleration of the flow is found to be quite similar in both cases, but the mechanisms of acceleration differ. In the 2.5D case approximately 20% of the Poynting flux remains in the flow, in the 3D case this fraction is largely dissipated internally. Half of the dissipated energy is available for light emission; the resulting radiation would produce structures resembling those seen in protostellar jets.

description: We review recent results on lattice models for spin-less fermions with strong repulsive interactions. A judicious tuning of kinetic and interaction terms leads to a model possessing supersymmetry. In the 1D case, this model displays critical behavior described by superconformal field theory. On 2D lattices we generically find superfrustration, characterized by an extensive ground state entropy. For certain 2D lattices analytical results on the ground state structure reveal yet another quantum phase, which we tentatively call 'supertopological'.

description: Coexistence properties of the hard-core attractive Yukawa potential with inverse-range parameter kappa=9, 10, 12 and 15 are calculated by applying canonical Monte Carlo simulation. As previously shown for longer ranges, we show that also for the ranges considered here the coexistence curves scaled by the critical density and temperature obey the law of corresponding states, and that a linear relationship between the critical density and the reciprocal of the critical temperature holds. The simulation results are compared with the predictions of the self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike approximation, and a good agreement is found for both the critical points and the coexistence curves, although some slight discrepancies are present.
