From Precedent to Progress: LGBTQ+ Discrimination in the Legal Field
Does sexual orientation influence the probability of attaining partnership in law firms, as measured through quantitative and qualitative survey data on experiences of discrimination and professional advancement
Impact of Social Media on Interpersonal Communication Skills
There is fear of social media enhancing a communications crutch which allows space to withdraw from important social cues and interactions
Seed Dormancy in Blue Elderberry (\u3ci\u3eSambucus Cerulea\u3c/i\u3e)
Health benefits: cold remedy, antioxidants, anti- inflammatory (Ulbricht et al., 2014)
Food uses: wines, syrups, jams, drinks, and vitamin supplements (Cai et al., 2024)
Increasing interest: from 6.9% to 41.2% of survey respondents between 2011 and 2022 (Cai et al., 2024
Empathy in Type
This exploration of typography included a survey of questions with typeface examples. The questions paired similar and contrasting typefaces in order to correctly identify characteristics that portray empathy
Flow Characterization Past Large arrays of Oscillating 2D Airfoils
Oscillating or rotating array structures at distinct frequencies are prevalent in natural systems and engineering applications.
• Flow Control in Engineering Systems:
Arrays of vibrating plates can be used to manipulate free-shear and boundary layer flows, reduce drag, or delay flow separation in aerodynamics and hydrodynamics.
• Wave Mitigation Structures:
Arrays of oscillating structures may dissipate energy in coastal areas, reducing the impact of waves on structures or preventing erosion
• Biological Studies:
Simulations of synchronized oscillating arrays can provide insights into fish schooling behavior and hydrodynamic benefits in nature.
• Advanced Cooling Systems:
Oscillating plates in fluid environments can enhance mixing and improve heat transfer in compact cooling systems.
• Energy Harvesting:
Arrays of oscillating plates can be used to extract energy from fluid flows, such as river currents or tidal flows, by converting oscillatory motion into electrical energy
Effects of Rapid Temperature Change on Soil Microbe Growth
Many bacterial microbes have a maximum growth curve at 29-37 degrees Celsius. But, many microbes, like those found in soils, are exposed to the elements rather than an incubator. As the weather is becoming more unpredictable due to climate change, are our soil microbes suffering? If they are, we may be at risk of losing novel sources of antibiotics before they are discovered
Harmonic Series: Fundamentals, Physics and Sound
The relationship between math and music has been one of the many wonders of nature (White & White, 2014). While the two fields may seem unrelated, physics is the driving force behind the production of music. Modern musical systems are based on intervals and ratios that were first discovered by Pythagoras and the production of sound is based on waves (Bain, 2003)
From Home to Campus: Multicultural Experiences on the USU Campus
Interview study Purpose: Explore multicultural students’ experiences on USU campu
Indian Education and Computing for All: A Case Study of Culturally Responsive-Sustaining Computer Science
Research shows that integrating computer science (CS) into other disciplines leads to more equitable participation for all students.
Connecting CS learning to students’ families, communities, and interests leads to increased student engagement.
We designed a middle school social studies unit that integrated CS to teach about why treaties still matter through the lens of food sovereignty
Earthquakes in Creeping Fault Zones? Mineralogic and Grain Size Controls on Frictional Behavior
1. Motivation
Faults can creep or be locked to produce earthquakes.
This behavior may be influenced by minerology and grain size
Serpentine minerals and clay are known to promote creep along faults
Does mineralogy promote creep along the Bartlett Springs Fault, CA
