Initial Framework for Improving the Traffic Safety Culture in Kansas
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)In 2012 in Kansas there were 368 traffic-related fatalities. The Kansas Department of Transportation is seeking to reduce this number by focusing on improving the traffic safety culture that surrounds and supports its ... -
In Vivo Characterization of Thoracolumbar Range of Motion in Healthy Populations
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)The long term objective of this research was to investigate thoracolumbar mobility in vivo and develop a method that allows for the comparison of motion data between in vivo and cadaveric models. Many research studies have ... -
Fate and Transport of Vertebrate DNA in Surface Water Environments: Developing a Basis for Quantification through Environmental DNA Monitoring
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)Many environmental engineering applications require sampling of DNA to be effective. Organisms shed DNA into the environment, and that environmental DNA (eDNA) can be collected, extracted, amplified, and quantified to ... -
Development of Chondroinductive Hydrogel Pastes from Naturally Derived Cartilage Matrix
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)The main focus of hydrogel technology is on hydrogels in their crosslinked form. Although hydrogels are promising materials for cartilage tissue engineering, the clinical translation of these materials are hindered because ... -
Navigation for UAVs using Signals of Opportunity
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)The reliance of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) for autonomous operation represents a significant vulnerability to their reliable and secure operation due to signal interference, ... -
Assessment of variability and coordination of upper and lower body segments during walking in healthy adults and persons with multiple sclerosis
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)Persons with multiple sclerosis often report problems with gait and general instability during walking, possibly due to the disease’s disruption of sensorimotor function. Understanding variability of upper and lower body ... -
Pullout Resistance of MSE Wall Steel Strip Reinforcement in Uniform Aggregate
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)A wide range of reinforcement-backfill combinations have been used in mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls. Steel strips are one type of reinforcement used to stabilize aggregate backfill through anchorage. In the ... -
