CFD Black Liquor Bed Simulation

March 24, 2014 by admin

Benjamin Ohran and Dr. Larry Baxter, Chemical Engineering The objective of this project was to further the understanding of the bed region of a black liquor recovery boiler. The net output of carbon dioxide from burning black liquor (a paper pulping by-product) is zero, making it a desirable alternative fuel source; however, there are other […]

PIONEER VENUS ORBITER RETARDING POTENTIAL ANALYZER OBSERVATIONS OF THE ELECTRON COMPONENT OF THE SOLAR WIND AND OBSERVATIONS OF VENUS BOW SHOCK CROSSINGS AND THE MAGNETOSHEATH REGION

February 11, 2014 by admin

Noe Yamaguchi, Physics and Astronomy General Background Research A bow shock is a paraboloid-shaped shockwave that forms around a planet similar to one that forms around an airplane traveling faster than the speed of sound. We may observe this shock by the change in plasma parameters before and after entering the bow shock. Those plasma […]

COMPLEXATION REACTIONS AND STRUCTURE OF THE IRON-MOLYBDENUM COFACTOR OF NITROGENASE

February 11, 2014 by admin

Dean Wheeler, Chemical Engineering Purpose As described in the proposal submitted last year for this project, there is a great need to further understand the dynamics and processes of the nitrogenase system. Using this chemical system a limited number of microorganisms are able to break down atmospheric nitrogen so it may be used by other […]

QUANTUM INTERSTATE PHASE DIFFERENCES AND MULTIPHOTON PROCESSES: APPLICATION TO MULTI-LEVEL MODELS OF TIME DEPENDENT ENERGY ABSORPTION

February 11, 2014 by admin

John Sutton Welch, Chemistry-Molecular Biology During the last year I have examined numerical solutions and analytical approximations of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation for quantum systems with two, three and four levels which are perturbed by a classical sinusoidal field, I have been particularly interested in understanding the meaning and effects of the quantum phase on […]

8 MINUTES AT 325°

February 11, 2014 by admin

Todd Wahlquist, Theater & Film The making of a film can be very taxing, both mentally and financially, and I appreciate very much the Office of Research and Creative Work helping to lessen both of those demands. The total budget for my film was approximately $5,000; therefore, the $1,000 provided by the Research and Creative […]

THERE USED TO BE A BALLPARK ••• A PORTRAIT OF DERKS FIELD

February 11, 2014 by admin

Brady Tuckett, Theater & Film In early 1992, it was announced that Salt Lake City’s minor league ballpark, Derks Field, was going to be tom down. Soon after reading these headlines, I became interested in making a documentary about the history of baseball in Salt Lake City. As a child, I attended many baseball games […]

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF HOPI-NAVAJO LAND USE MANAGEMENT, AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF THE 1992 PROPOSAL FOR SETTLEMENT OF THE HOPI-NAVAJO DISPUTE

February 11, 2014 by admin

Benjamin A. Thomson, Geography To introduce this research summary, I would like to include a brief background to my research topic. Since the creation of the Hopi and Navajo reservations in 1880, these two tribes have disputed the use of the land. By 1974 the Navajo, living on a reservation surrounding that of the Hopi, […]

ILLUSTRATING A CHILDREN’S BOOK

February 11, 2014 by admin

Charles B. Stubbs, Design Department The project I proposed last fall was to research the children’s book market and to write and illustrate a book that would teach family values to young children. I proposed to make a copy or partially finished copy of the book including illustrations and to prepare the copy for publication […]

ZONATION OF PORIFERA: ANALYSIS OF BATHYMETRIC DISTRIBUTION FOR THE CENTRAL CALIFORNIA REGION

February 11, 2014 by admin

Allison Louise Stockman, Zoology During the seven weeks which I spent researching at Hopkins Marine Station in Monterey, California, my focus was to delve into the many aspects of Poriferan biology. I am curious as to how sponges function and to what does the Phylum owe its long success in occupying such a specialized niche […]

HYPERDIMENSIONAL JULIA SET GENERATION SYSTEM SOFTWARE

February 11, 2014 by admin

Kevin Steele, Computer Science ABSTRACT Chaos theory and fractal science is a recently developed technology. Julia Sets, a class of deterministic fractals, have been defined and rendered using computer software in only two and four dimensions. In my Research and Creative Work Scholarship application, I proposed to develop a software system to create and render […]
