Antioxidant Activity of Purple Colored Fruit Extracts
(2012-04)This study tested the antioxidant activity of extracts from highly purple colored fruits, such as pomegranate, pokeweed, purple corn, purple potato, etc. The research investigated to see if the purple colored substance, ... -
Application of an Accelerometer to a Rigid Pendulum
(2012-04)The costs and sizes of accelerometers and microcontrollers have dropped significantly in the last several years. This study tested a microcontroller-accelerometer combination on a well-understood system, the rigid ... -
Application of Machine Learning to Numerical Algebraic Geometry
(2018-04)The solution of arbitrary polynomial systems is an area of active research, and has many applications in math, science and engineering. This program, Bertini 2, builds on the success of the first Bertini program, and seeks ... -
An Application of Neural Networks to a Non-Deterministic Game of Imperfect Information
(2017-11-30)Current research into game-playing neural networks emphasizes deterministic games of per- fect information and training with “expert knowledge” such as known successful strategies. As an example, Google’s AlphaGo, a ... -
Application of Statistical-Thermal Coupling Analysis to Identify Residue-Residue Interaction Networks that Facilitate Coupled-Domain Dynamics in Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthetases
(2012-04)Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (ARSs) are multi-domain proteins that catalyze covalent attachment of amino acids to the 3'-end of the cognate tRNA molecules. Long-range domain-domain communications are known to play an ... -
Application of the Iowa Model for Evidence Based Practice : a Corner Piece in the Puzzle of a Research Project on Guided Imagery and Perioperative Pain Management in Spinal Fusion Patients.
(2009-02-13)The Iowa Model for Evidence Based Practice: 1) Provides a systematic pathway to guide nurses in the research decision making process 2) Clinical trigger "drives" the model: clinical question, problem, or knowledge ... -
Applying Aphasia-Friendly Principles to Experience Sampling Method Mobile App Development
(2019-05)In this study, people with aphasia were asked to compare three apps of varied origin and rate them on aphasia-friendly principles. The purpose of each app is to allow people with aphasia to answer customized questions, ... -
Applying Brief Experimental Analysis to Empirically Select Interventions that Improve Oral Reading Fluency
(2012-04)Learning to read is challenging for many students. The earlier below average readers receive reading interventions the more their reading might improve. Teachers typically select interventions based on personal preference ... -
Applying GIS Technologies to Identify Sources of Chloride Pollution Within the Lower Chippewa River Basin
(2015-04)This project employed GIS to locate areas within the Lower Chippewa River Basin (LCRB) where chloride pollution has the greatest potential to enter surface waterbodies. -
Applying Interpolation Methods for Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) Topographic Correction at a Lithuanian Holocaust Mass Burial Site
(2019-05)A ground penetrating radar (GPR) grid was collected to locate a Holocaust mass burial site in the Trakas-Pempiškis woods of Rokiškis, Lithuania. The survey, shot with a pulseEKKO Pro GPR system and 500 MHz antennae, consisted ... -
Applying Neural Networks and Genetic Programming to the Game Lost Cities
(2018-05)The board game Lost Cities is a non-deterministic game of imperfect information. This makes it difficult to construct a reliable AI player without falling back to computationally expensive Monte Carlo search. We investigated ... -
An Approach to Analyzing Changes in Gene Expression of Non-model Plant Species Grown Under Elevated CO2 and Soil N Levels
(2015-04)We are specifically interested in the interactive effects of elevated CO2 and elevated nitrogen levels on the expression of genes involved in nitrogen metabolism and photorespiration as photorespiration is directly affected ... -
Appropriateness and Effectiveness of Spanking : a Study of Child Misbehavior and Child-Adult Relationship
(2011-05)Two types of misbehavior are common among children. Aggressive behavior is defined as either hitting or kicking, whereas passive misbehavior is defined as disobeying or talking back to an adult. Adults should apply ... -
Aquatic Plant Diversity in an Undisturbed, Clear Water Lake in Northern Wisconsin
(2010-04)Pine Lake, a deep, clear water lake in northwestern Wisconsin had remained relatively undisturbed since European settlement in the 1800s. Because of current land use activity pressures on lakes, we began a long-term study ... -
Aquifer Characterization Through GPR and Borehole Analysis : Eau Claire Municipal Well Field, Wisconsin
(2014-04)Our project's goal is to improve characterization of the aquifer supplying the Eau Claire municipal well held by correlating borehole data with GPR profiles to produce stratigraphic models at a higher degree of accuracy ... -
Arabidopsis Thaliana Plants with Mutations in the LRB1 and 2 Genes Show Reduced Germination Inhibition By Salt
(2018-02-08)Light is vital to plant survival and thus plants have developed sophisticated pathways to respond properly to their light environments. Plants sense specific wavelengths of light via photoreceptors, one family of which are ... -
Arbitrarily Large Regions of Invisible Integer Lattice Points
(2014-04)Can one find arbitrarily large squares or cubes of integer lattice points in which every point is not visible from the origin? The answer is yes; we call these invisible regions "hidden (or invisible) forests." We believe ... -
Arduino Autonomous Robotics System
(2013-05)This project was directed toward developing a MAVLINK (Miniature Air Vehicle Link) based LabVIEW ground control system for an Arduino-based Miniature Aerial Vehicle (MAV) to successfully complete autonomous missions, such ...
