    Axon Research App

    No full text
    The Axon Simulator is an app developed to help academics understand the membrane voltage and action potentials of axons via mesh and material parameter inputs. A user may run a simulation using the Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) model, the Single Cable (SC) model, or the Double Cable (DC) model, and plot the membrane voltage (as well as other ion gate functions) from the saved simulation. In addition, the app provides a description of each model and each variable input to help users understand how model parameters and equations shape axonal dynamics.

    Designing for Everyone: The Impact of ADA in Interior Design

    Get PDF
    In interior design, everyone is considered in the design process to ensure each place is safe, functional, and comfortable. ADA (American Disability Act) is always used in public buildings and is considered for individuals and families in residential buildings. Interior designers ensure places can be usable. This also helps companies prevent lawsuits and become more friendly, allowing people to trust and feel welcome

    The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect is a phenomenon where urban areas become significantly warmer than their surrounding rural areas (Debbage et al., 2015; Phelan et al., 2015; Yang et al., 2016

    Synthesis of Pristine Graphene on Cu Substrates Within a 3D Parameter Space

    Get PDF
    We designed a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition system wherein the toluene combines with the carrier gas flow to contact with the substrate within the quartz tube. As toluene is a liquid at room temperature, we froze the toluene using liquid nitrogen before pumping down the chamber to low pressure. Substrate cleanliness and preparation proved to be essential in the synthesis process

    Determining Antibiotic Efficacy on a Species of Pseudomonas Bacteria Isolated From a Soil Sample

    Get PDF
    The Pseudomonas genus contains a variety of species of bacteria that play essential roles in soil health, plant growth, and microbial competition. Certain species exhibit biocontrol properties by producing antimicrobial compounds to protect plants from harmful pathogens. While our Pseudomonas species is normally non-pathogenic to plants and humans, it could transfer antimicrobial resistance genes to harmful pathogens in the environment. By studying the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the isolated bacteria to several common antibiotics, we could identify antibiotic-sensitive strains that could be used in agriculture, or antimicrobial-producing strains that could serve as natural defenses for plants

    New Beginnings Behavioral Health

    Get PDF
    This project is the 2025 IIDA Student Competition. The objective of this project is to design the Lobby/Reception and Inpatient area of a behavioral health clinic. The design must consider the safety and well being of the patients as well as the staff. This project is in partnership with OFS and Carolina and at least 50% of the furnishings shall be sourced from them. The Lobby/Reception must contain a reception desk for 4 staff, a waiting area, and a minimum of 4 lockers for guests. The Inpatient area must contain the following: a sallyport at the entrance; 2 consultation rooms (one with technology able to accommodate telehealth appointments); an exam room; a work area for the staff, storage; a janitor closet; a noisy activity area for the patients with a nourishment, dining, and TV area; a quiet room; a group therapy/quiet activity room; a courtyard; patient toilets; a minimum of 8 patient beds (include both private and semi-private rooms); and a care desk that must have visual access to all patient areas
