Photochemistry of 2-pyridones with para-substituted benzenes
(2021)In pharmaceuticals, there is a large use of complex heterocyclic scaffolds that require long syntheses. Specifically, drugs containing pyridones are becoming increasingly more common, especially with containing 2-pyridones. ... -
Placing Akili Dada in the Greater Girlhood Studies, International Development, and Kenyan Political Contexts
(2019)This research is part of a larger, collaborative book manuscript project titled A (Re)Turn to the African Girl: African Feminist Girlhood Studies and Development. The purpose of this project is to examine Akili Dada, a ... -
Planar Electrodes with Koch Snowflake Geometries Increase Stimulation Efficiency of Neural Tissue
(2015)The goal of our project is to decrease power consumption of planar electrode while increasing stimulation efficiency -
[PNP] metal complexes for CO₂ functionalization
(2022)The burning of fossil fuels has created an abundance of CO₂ in the atmosphere, negatively affecting the Earth. This CO₂ can provide a renewable source of carbon that can be reduced to create value added chemicals. Catalysis ... -

Political reconciliation & justice in post-apartheid literature
(2017)From J.M. Coetzee’s post-apartheid novel Disgrace to Boubacar Boris Diop’s reflection on the Rwandan genocide in Murambi, The Book of Bones, the issue of how to move forward from catastrophic conflict has continually ignited ... -
The politics of empiricism and the construction of race as an analytical category
(American Anthropological Association, 1994-01)The article examine the politics of empiricism from two perspectives: first, the political context from which empiricism emerged and secondly, the ways in which the empiricist epistemology continues to structure and limit ... -
Polymerization of Norbornene Using Cationic (p-allyl)Ni(II) Dialkylbiaryl Phosphine Complexes
(2014)The polymerization of norbornene is of interest to study because there is a wide array of cheap commercially available monomers and the polymer product is value-added and has a number of commercial applications. Norbornene ... -
A polynomial chaos approach to predicting swimming performance
(2022)Jellyfish only expend little energy while in motion, making them highly efficient swimmers. We can explore swimming performance using computer simulations to further understand jellyfish locomotion. Each computer simulation ... -
Polynomial families of tautological classes on Mʳᵗg,n
(Elsevier, 2012-04)We study classes Pg,T (α; β) on Mʳᵗg,n defined by pushing forward the virtual fundamental classes of spaces of relative stable maps to an unparameterized P¹ with prescribed ramification over 0 and ∞. A comparison with ... -
Polynomially bounded linear complementarity problem-based solvers for Model Predictive Control
(Elsevier, 2021-12)We present a computational complexity certificate for a special type of Linear Complementarity problem (LCP) arising in Constrained Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) based Model Predictive Control (MPC). By exploiting the ... -
Possibilities of habitable zones around post-AGB stars
(2021)A post-ABG (asymptotic giant branch) star is a very luminous late stage in the evolution of a low-to intermediate mass star. A post-AGB star is found in a specific region on the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram. The HR ... -
Powered five-finger supportive exoskeleton for the human hand
(2016)Over 450,000 Americans currently suffer from debilitating disorders that decrease hand function. The objective of this research effort was to design and implement a powered glove-like exoskeleton for the human hand to ... -
Predicting the impact of placing an overdose prevention site in Philadelphia: a mathematical modeling approach
(BMC, 2021-10-30)Background: Fatal overdoses from opioid use and substance disorders are increasing at an alarming rate. One proposed harm reduction strategy for reducing overdose fatalities is to place overdose prevention sites—commonly ... -
Predicting tumor response to vascular-targeting therapies using a mathematical model
(2011-01)A relatively novel use of mathematics in the field of cancer research is in drug discovery process. In this talk, I will briefly describe a validated hybrid cellular automaton model of tumor growth and I will illustrate ... -
Predictive Effects of Feedback Orientation on Academic Performance Among College Students
(2015)How does monitoring one’s academic performance affect overall GPA? We conducted a study in which participants were asked how they respond to feedback in order to determine their feedback orientation (FBO), or receptivity ...
