description: Large datasets related to Indiana’s Education and Workforce development are used by various demographics such as stakeholders and decision makers in education and government, parents, teachers and employees of various companies to find trends and patterns in the data to better guide decision-making through statistical analysis. However, most of this data is scattered, textual and available in the form of excel sheets which makes it harder to look at the data from different perspectives, drill down and roll up the data and find trends and patterns in the data. Such data representation does not take into account the inherent characteristics of the user which can affect how well the user understands, perceives and interprets the data.Information dashboards used to view and navigate between visualizations of different datasets, provide a coherent, central access to all data, and make it easy to view different aspects of the system. The purpose of this research is to create a new data visualization dashboard for visualizing education and workforce data and find which design principles are applicable while designing such a dashboard for the target demographic in the education and workforce domain. This study also aims at assessing how the introduction of such a data dashboard affects the work processes and decision making of stakeholders involved in education and workforce development in the state of Indiana.User studies consisting of usability testing and semi-structured interviews with the stakeholders in education and workforce development in the state of Indiana is conducted to test the effectiveness of the dashboard. Finally, this research proposes how a regional map-based dashboard can be used as an effective method to design a data dashboard for education and workforce data for other states and other domains as well.
MICROBIOLOGICAL STUDIES ON THE ANTIBIOTIC TOLERANCE OF NON-REPLICATING MYCOBACTERIUM ABSCESSUS: EFFECTS OF EFFLUX PUMP INHIBITORS AND METABOLIC ENERGY SOURCES
Creators: name: Funk, Andrea M

Year: 2020
Subjects: Microbiology not elsewhere classified

description: Mycobacterium abscessus is an emerging infectious pathogen capable of causing pulmonary disease similar to tuberculosis, but has many intrinsic and extrinsic properties making it more drug-resistant than Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Current treatments, including those used for M. tuberculosis infection, have had poor results. Although in vitro studies have shown promise with drug treatment for this microorganism, clinical trials have been mostly unsuccessful. An in vitro model that mimics the physiological stresses encountered within the human body is likely to enable the discovery of mechanisms of antibiotic resistance used by M. abscessus during infection. Therefore, we subjected M. abscessus to a combination of stresses thought to be encountered by mycobacteria inside the human body. We subjected the pathogen to low oxygen, low pH, and nutrient starvation. This is the first report on subjecting M. abscessus to such a combination of stresses. It is also the first to investigate the effect of the combination of stresses on the tolerance of the pathogen to antibiotics, and the effect of efflux pump inhibitors under such conditions. We found that under these conditions, M. abscessus entered a non-replicating state. We investigated whether the multiple-stressed M. abscessus displayed altered tolerance to antibiotics commonly used to treat infection, and whether efflux pump inhibitors affected the antibiotic resistance under such conditions. We found that when subjected to our multiple stress model, M. abscessus in the reactivating phase had higher tolerance to erythromycin in combination with efflux pump inhibitors verapamil and reserpine compared to non-replicating M. abscessus. Reactivating phase cells had a higher tolerance to antibiotic erythromycin than non-replicating cells. Reactivating phase cells also showed antibiotic tolerance in the presence of ATP. This physiologically-relevant experimental model for M. abscessus could potentially be used in discovering the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in the pathogen.

description: This study conducts a comprehensive statistical analysis to evaluate the impact of different treatments on biogas production and assesses the effectiveness of anaerobic digestion processes. Analysis of total solids (TS) and volatile solids (VS) before and after digestion demonstrates a significant reduction in both TS and VS content across all treatment conditions. For instance, the 37°C treatment showed a decrease in VS from an initial value of 6.38% to a final value of
description: 2.96%, while the GAC 37°C treatment exhibited a decrease from 6.38% to 3.26%. Similarly, the TS decreased from 8.01% to 4.01% in the 37°C treatment, and from 8.01% to 4.89% in the GAC 37°C treatment. Removal efficiencies of volatile solids show that higher temperatures enhance removal rates, with approximately 53.6% removal efficiency at 37°C and 60.9% at 55°C, while the presence of GAC slightly reduces removal efficiency compared to treatments without GAC. The study also compares two kinetic models, the first-order kinetic model and the Cone model, to analyze biogas production kinetics. While the first-order model provides insights into the exponential stage of gas production, the Cone model offers a better fit to the data and predicts methane yield more accurately, with root mean square prediction error (rMSPE) values ranging from 1.7087% to 6.836%. These findings contribute to advancing understanding and refining models for optimizing anaerobic digestion processes and maximizing biogas yields for sustainable energy production.

description: In this thesis, the design and implementation of an autonomous system that will equip a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for visual detection and tracking of other UAVs is presented. The results from detection and tracking are used for real-time motion planning.
The goal is to effectively detect unwanted UAVs, track them and finally capture them with a net. Having a net that traps the UAVs and enables dragging intruders to another location is of great importance, since these could be carrying dangerous loads.
The project consists of three main tasks: object detection using a stereo camera, video tracking using a Kalman filter based algorithm, and lastly executing an optimal flight plan to aim a net at the detected intruder UAV. The computer vision, motion tracking and planning algorithms are implemented as ROS nodes what makes them executable on a reduced size onboard computer that is installed on the aerial vehicle.
Previous work related to this project consists of either a UAV detection system with computationally heavy algorithms or a tracking algorithm that does not include information about the dynamics of the UAVs. For the capture methods, previous ideas do not consider autonomous decisions or an optimized method to guarantee capture. In this thesis, these three aspects are considered to develop a simple solution that can be mounted on any commercially available UAV.

description: Mobile applications are an important but fast changing piece of the digital forensics’ world. For mobile forensics researchers and field analysts, it is hard to keep up with the pace of the ever-changing world of the newest and most popular applications teens are using. Mobile forensic tools are quickly becoming more and more supportive of new applications, but with how quickly apps are changing and new ones being released, it is still difficult for the tools to keep up. The research question for this project examines to what extent digital forensic tools support new and emerging applications seen recently in investigations involving teenagers? For this research, a survey was conducted asking digital forensic analysts, and others who investigate digital crimes, what applications they are coming across most frequently during investigations involving teens and whether those applications are being supported by forensic tools. The top three applications from the survey that were not supported by mobile forensic tools, Monkey, Houseparty, and Likee were populated onto a test device and then evaluated and analyzed to see what forensic artifacts were found in those applications. The mobile application artifacts were then compared on two different forensic tools to see which tool obtains the most forensic artifacts from the applications. Through the examination and analysis of the applications and data contained within the apps, it was determined that 61% of the populated forensic artifacts were recovered manually and only 45% were recovered by a forensic tool for the Monkey application. 100% of the populated forensic artifacts were recovered manually and only 29% were recovered by a forensic tool for the Houseparty application. 42% of the populated forensic artifacts were recovered manually and only 3% were recovered by a forensic tool for the Likee application. It was found that the extent of support from digital forensic tools for these types of applications depends greatly on how the application stores the artifacts, but the artifact extraction support was limited for all applications. This research benefits in helping researchers and analysts by understanding the data and artifacts contained within the applications, what forensic artifacts are recoverable, and where to find those important artifacts. This research can help in finding important evidence for future investigations.

description: This dissertation extends our knowledge of digital affordances in communicating complex scientific information by building and testing a climate change adaptation website for the Colombian coffee sector, www.climaycafe.com. This project offers both a practical component (scholarship of engagement) and theoretical component (extension of our understanding of the objective/subjective nature of affordances). Practically, it seeks to create a collaborative and tailored science communication solution for improved information access to support climate change adaptation. Theoretically, it extends our understanding of affordances in a digital environment through a qualitative assessment, specifically how occupational identity influences the subjective nature of affordances. Data is gathered through an iterative qualitative assessment of users’ interpretation of the perceived affordances on the website. The results demonstrate that occupational identity has an influence on perceived digital affordances, particularly influenced by (1) Perceived Social Status of Occupation, (2) Perception of Value Based on Occupational Demands, (3) Occupational Influence on Perceived Reliability and (4) Usability Preferences Based on Occupation. We additionally found that as creators we can set general goals for digital tools and achieve general success in obtaining them, but ultimately the users will dictate their needs within this broader framework. Lastly, there is a self-identified need for more practical knowledge and information access for coffee farmers in these regions of Colombia around climate change adaptation.
PKM2-EZH2 INTERACTION ELICITS METABOLIC VULNERABILITY FOR TREATMENT OF TRIPLE- NEGATIVE BREAST CANCER
Creators: name: Zhang, Yingsheng
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Cancer cell biology

description: Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive type of breast cancer. TNBC patients are resistant to virtually all target therapies and suffer a higher post-chemotherapy relapse with a worse overall survival compared with other types of breast cancers. Therefore, the development of an effective therapy is urgently needed. PKM2 plays a prominent role in mediating tumor glycolysis and PKM2 is often overexpressed in human cancers. However, whether PKM2 mediated glycolysis is necessary for cancer cell growth is questionable. Here, I have found that inhibition of PKM2 does not affect TNBC cell growth due to a metabolic switch from glycolysis to fatty acid oxidation (FAO). We show that PKM2 directly interacts with EZH2 to coordinately mediate epigenetic silencing of SLC16A9, transporter of a key player in FAO, Carnitine. Inhibition of either PKM2 or EZH2 increases levels of SLC16A9 and intracellular Carnitine to promote FAO and thereby sustains cancer cell growth. Direct inhibition of EZH2 using a clinically tested EZH2 inhibitor, GSK126, is able to elicit a previously unidentified vulnerability to a clinically tested FAO inhibitor, Etomoxir. As a result, combined GSK126-Etomoxir treatment synergistically abolishes TNBC xenograft tumor growth in vivo. Together, this study uncovers PKM2-EZH2 mediated metabolic reprogramming that leads to a new drug combination therapy by dual targeting of EZH2 and FAO for effective treatment of TNBC.  Furthermore, Dendritic Cell (DC) vaccination has shown promise in treating cancer patients. However, the in vitro generation of a fully functional DC remains a big challenge in this field. EZH2 inhibition has shown to be able to create an immunologically ‘hot’ tumors. Nonetheless, the role of EZH2 in regulation of DC function is still unclear. I found that the expression levels of EZH2 and its functional maker, H3K27Me3, are enhanced following maturation from immature DC (iDC) into two functional DCs, α-type 1-polarized-DC (αDC) and gold standard DC (sDC). Moreover, inhibition of EZH2 by GSK126 treatment elicits a dependency of sDC on FAO. These results suggest that EZH2 plays a role in maturation of DC through metabolic reprogramming, which may also provide new DC based immunotherapy of TNBC.

description: Asphalt binder in pavement is subjected to sustained static and dynamic stresses under traffic loadings, leading to the formation of fatigue cracks. As the most common type of pavement distress, fatigue cracking accelerates deterioration and reduces pavement performance. Thus, it is crucial to predict fatigue behavior of asphalt binder accurately. To deeply comprehend the mechanisms behind fatigue failure and enhance the fatigue performance of asphalt binder, a novel fatigue failure evaluation method was developed in this study. The fatigue performance of two kinds of asphalt binders under various creep and cyclic loadings at different temperatures was investigated by dynamic shear rheometer. Two plasticity-based fatigue damage constitutive models were developed based on the creep viscoplasticity method and classic viscoplastic theory, respectively. Finally, a new criterion for fatigue failure was established using the novel fatigue failure evaluation method and the two newly developed plasticity-based damage constitutive models.

Subjects: Linguistics not elsewhere classified

description: The present study contributes to our understanding of the effects of age and type of linguistic input in the acquisition of Spanish as a second language in adulthood. I examine the Spanish syntax (word order) of three groups of speakers, monolingual Spanish speakers from Mexico and two bilingual English-Spanish speakers born and raised in the United States (N = 53) to measure the effects of an early, oral-based versus a late, written-based exposure to the target language. Results from a sentence completion task show comparable behavior across all groups in the four verb conditions, with a strong tendency to favor the no climbing (enclisis) option, and a proficiency effect among the experimental groups. Results of an acceptability judgment task show comparable behavior across all groups, accepting grammatical proclitic placement and rejecting ungrammatical sentences with climbing. Neither proficiency or group effects were found in this task, although the judgments of the experimental groups were less categorical compared to the native speakers’. The combined results of these two tasks point to an absence of age or input effects in the L2 acquisition of this syntactic phenomenon in Spanish.

AXIOLINGUISTIC ANALYSIS OF UZBEK VALUE LEXICON: METHODS, CONCEPTS, AND CULTURAL OPPOSITIONS
Creators: name: Dadabayeva, Shirinxon
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Axiolinguistics explores how evaluative meanings are encoded in language, focusing on how lexemes reflect a speaker's value system. In Uzbek, value-laden vocabulary is often organized into bipolar oppositions (e.g., yaxshilik–yomonlik, “goodness–evilness”) that mirror cultural contrasts. Researchers apply methods such as semantic field analysis, conceptual study, and paremiological investigation. Proverbs, rich in axiological content, serve as carriers of moral norms. Comparative studies reveal both universal and culture-specific value concepts. The theoretical framework integrates semantic, cognitive, and linguo-cultural approaches, enabling systematic categorization of Uzbek axiological lexicon and revealing how language encodes cultural evaluations.

In this thesis, microchannel heat exchanger design is analyzed to determine factors limiting effectiveness and power density. Ideal heat exchanger performance is characterized for one-pass counterflow heat exchangers with varying channel dimensions, flow regimes, and thermal conductivities. Smaller channel sizes lead to increased pressure drop and temperature gradients within the channel, necessitating low flow rates. Axial conduction is found to drive down effectiveness at low flow rates, with this effect more pronounced with decreased channel dimensions. Reducing the heat exchanger’s thermal conductivity to 1W/(m∙K) is found to reduce axial conduction. However, pressure drop still limits performance for existing designs, so optimized designs are necessary to create high performance microchannel heat exchangers. A multi-pass design consisting of stacked one-pass layers to keep pressure drop at an acceptable level is tested at various channel dimensions and flow regimes. The multi-pass design achieved an 11.2 times increase in power density and 1.08 times increase in maximum achievable effectiveness over leading commercial heat exchanger designs.

description: PCBs were analysed in 110 samples, including marine fish, freshwater fish and marine bivalves. The levels of ∑7PCBs in marine fish ranged from 0.18 to 5.59 ng g−1 wet weight (ww), in freshwater fish from 0.10 to 1.19 ng g−1 ww and in marine bivalves from 0.07 to 5.59 ng g−1 ww. The highest level of PCBs was found in Scomberomorus niphonius. In marine fish, freshwater fish and marine bivalves, the most abundant compounds were Hexa-CBs, Tri-CBs and Hexa-CBs, respectively. PCBs were distributed in a species-specific manner in aquatic products. None of the aquatic product samples analysed exceeded the limit for ∑7PCBs set by China or the limit established by the European Union.

description: As wireless communications continue to permeate many aspects of human life and technology, future generations of communication networks are expected to become increasingly heterogeneous due to an explosion of the number of different types of user devices, a diverse set of available air interfaces, and a large variety of choices for the architecture of the network core.
This heterogeneity, coupled with increasingly strict demands on the communication rate, latency, and fidelity demanded by a growing list of services delivered using wireless technologies, requires optimizations across the entire networking stack.
Our contribution to this effort considers three key aspects of modern communication systems:
First, we present a set of new techniques for multiple-input, multi-output beam alignment specifically suited for unfavorable signal-to-noise ratio regimes like the ones encountered in beamformed millimeter-wave wireless communication links.
Second, we present a computationally efficient estimation algorithm for a specific class of aeronautical channels, which applies to systems designed to extend wireless coverage and communication capacity using unmanned aerial vehicles.
Third, we present a new class of multi-hop relaying schemes designed to minimize communication latency with applications in the emerging domain of ultra-reliable and low-latency communications.
Each of the three problem areas covered in this work is motivated by the demands of a future generation of wireless communication networks and we develop theoretical and/or numerical results outperforming the state of the art.

description: Viruses are pathogenic agents which affect all varieties of organisms, including plants, animals and humans. These microscopic particles are genetically simple organisms which encode a limited number of proteins that undertake a wide range of functions. While structurally distinct, viruses often share common characteristics that have evolved to aid in their infectious life cycles. A commonly underappreciated characteristic of many deadly viruses is a lipid envelope coat that surrounds them. Lipid enveloped viruses comprise a diverse range of pathogenic viruses, known to cause disease in both animals and human which often leads to high fatality rates, many of which lack effective and approved therapeutics. This report focuses on learning how a multifunctional protein within lipid enveloped viruses, the matrix protein, interacts with the plasma membrane of cells to enter and exit cells. Specifically, four viruses are investigated, Measles virus and Nipah virus (within the Paramyxoviridae family) and Ebola virus and Marburg virus (within the Filoviridae family). Through numerous in vitro experiments, functional cellular assays, a myriad of microscopy techniques, and experiments in high containment bio-safety level 4 settings, this report identifies specific lipids at play during the viral assembly process for each virus. Moreover, mechanistic insight is presented as to how each matrix protein interacts with the plasma membrane to facilitate: membrane association, viral matrix protein oligomerization and assembly, the rearrangement of lipids within the plasma membrane, and viral production. Lastly, numerous small molecule inhibitors targeting specific lipids, (e.g. phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate) within the cell were investigated for their efficacy in inhibiting matrix protein-dependent viral like particle production and viral spread in cells. As a whole, these projects lend credence to the significant role that lipids and the plasma membrane play throughout lipid enveloped viral life cycles, and provide compelling evidence for the merit of future drug-development research geared at targeting the matrix protein-plasma membrane interaction.

description: This study employed QuEChERS extraction method combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to analyse honey samples from Albania for nitroimidazole residues. This approach allowed for the detection of trace-level residues, achieving sensitivity in the parts per billion range. Out of the 45 honey samples analysed, 6 exceeded the European Union’s safety limit of 1 µg/kg, with metronidazole (MNZ) and dimetridazole (DMZ) being the predominant contaminants. The findings highlight the public health risk posed by nitroimidazole residues, particularly in regions where honey is a widely consumed food product. In line with recent advances in the determination of veterinary drug residues, this study supports the need for enhanced regulatory frameworks and continuous monitoring to safeguard consumer health.
