Abstract:
Blackleg, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans (Desmaz) Ces. & de Not (anamorph = Phoma lingam), is an economically important disease of canola (Brassica napus L.) worldwide and was first detected in North Dakota in 1991 (3). L. maculans can be categorized into one of several pathogenicity groups (PGs) on the basis of the interaction phenotypes in differential canola cvs. Westar, Glacier, and Quinta by using a standard screening protocol in the greenhouse (4). With this system, PG1 strains are weakly virulent and PG2, PG3, and PG4 are highly virulent. The predominant strains of L. maculans in North Dakota are PG1 and PG2 (3). In cooperation with the Oilseed Pathology Lab in the Department of Plant Science, University of Manitoba, blackleg-infested canola stubble was collected arbitrarily from fields in North Dakota during August and September of 2003. Isolates of the pathogen were obtained by plating surface-sterilized (2% NaOCl), collected stubble on V8 agar containing 0.03% chloramphenicol at 22°C under continuous cool-white fluorescent light. Pycnidiospores were harvested from single pycnidia after 14 days of incubation with the Miracloth filtering method (2) and stored at -20°C. Each isolate was passed once through cv. Westar to maintain virulence. Isolates were confirmed as being L. maculans by the presence of characteristic pink pycnidia formed on V8 agar and the characteristic symptoms caused on inoculated cotyledons of cv. Westar. The PG test was performed using a standard screening protocol (4) and was repeated three times for each isolate. For each isolate, 12 7-day-old cotyledons of each differential cultivar were wound inoculated with 10 μl of a pycnidiospore suspension (1 × 107 per ml). Disease severity on cotyledons was assessed 12 days after inoculation with a 0 to 9 scale (0 to 2 = resistant; 3 to 6 = intermediate; and 7 to 9 = susceptible). A total of 106 isolates were obtained from the stubble collected from 47 fields. Of these isolates, three were characterized as PG1, 94 as PG2, six as PG3, and one as PG4; two isolates could not be characterized according to the PG system as described (4). PG3 isolates originated from two fields in Cavalier County and one field in Ward County. The PG4 isolate was from Cavalier County. To our knowledge, this is the first time highly virulent strains of PG3 and PG4 have been detected in North Dakota. PG3 and PG4 strains of L. maculans were found only recently in western Canada (1,2). The discovery of these PGs in North Dakota and western Canada has immense implication to canola breeding programs and blackleg control, since these PGs may cause greater levels of blackleg severity on canola cultivars that are resistant to only PG2 type isolates.

Abstract:
Elemental sulfur is commonly applied for powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator) protection on winegrape (Vitis sp.). The product may be used in a diversified, integrated disease management system to help prevent fungicide resistance to products with other modes of action. Additionally, sulfur may be used as a control option in organic systems. Applications of sulfur have been known to cause phytotoxic injury to susceptible winegrape cultivars, particularly those stemming from fox grape (Vitis labrusca) parentage. To improve recommendations to producers in the northern Great Plains region of the United States, a comparison of injury incidence and severity, as well as effects on yield characteristics was undertaken for 13 regional cultivars exposed to three sulfur rates (0, 2.4, and 4.8 lb/acre a.i.) at a North Dakota State University Research Station near Absaraka, ND. Overall, four cultivars (Bluebell, Baltica, Sabrevois, and King of the North) of the 13 cultivars tested showed phytotoxic symptoms. Injury severity and incidence of these cultivars differed between years and across rates. ‘Bluebell’ showed consistent and severe sulfur injury symptoms. Injury to the other three susceptible cultivars tended to vary by the given environment, with King of the North generally showing the lowest injury response. Injury symptoms were not found to be associated with the overall yield or cluster weight. Results suggest that alternative spray programs that exclude sulfur-based fungicides should be recommended for ‘Bluebell’, ‘Baltica’, ‘Sabrevois’, and ‘King of the North’, whereas sulfur-based fungicides may be applied to ‘Alpenglow’, ‘ES 12-6-18’, ‘Frontenac’, ‘Frontenac Gris’, ‘La Crescent’, ‘Marquette’, ‘Somerset Seedless’, ‘St. Croix’, and ‘Valiant’. Observations on fruit ripening in 2014 suggest that future research is needed to determine if a reduction of fruit quality may occur in some seasons with repeated sulfur applications or with successive annual sulfur applications for susceptible cultivars if used in an organic production system.

Abstract:
The medical curriculum at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences has recently been redesigned into a problem-based/traditional hybrid model that utilizes an integrated organ systems-based approach to teach basic and clinical sciences. The number of lecture hours in general has been greatly reduced, and, in particular, lecture hours in physiology have been reduced by 65%. Students learn basic science in small groups led by a faculty facilitator, and students are responsible for a great deal of their own teaching and learning. The curriculum is centered around patient cases and is called patient-centered learning (PCL). The curriculum includes traditional lectures and laboratories supporting faculty-generated learning objectives. Endocrine physiology is taught in year one, utilizing four weeks of patient cases that emphasize normal structure and function of endocrine systems. Endocrine physiology is revisited in year two, which is primarily focused on pathobiology. The PCL curriculum, with emphasis on the endocrine component, is described in detail along with key portions of an endocrine case.

Abstract:
Owing to analytical advances, submicron particles as small as 0.1 μm can be characterized for chemical composition, size, and shape using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Once these characteristics are determined, the individual particles can be grouped into categories that provide size, shape, and chemical/mineral distributions of the fine particle fraction.An important application of submicron particle analysis is in solving ash-related problems in coal combustion and gasification systems. The Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) at the University of North Dakota is involved in an international consortium formed by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), with U.S. Department of Energy Morgantown Energy Technology Center support, to study ash-related problems associated with the cleaning of hot gases in advanced energy systems. Before the gases are sent through a gas turbine to produce electricity, the particulates are removed with ceramic filters. Filters designed to trap the ash have a tendency to become plugged with ash, eventually causing operational problems. The focus of the project is to characterize the ashes from several filter systems to determine the mechanisms by which difficult-to-clean ash is formed and how it blinds hot-gas filters.

Abstract:
In August of 2011, the North Dakota State University Plant Diagnostic Lab received a hybrid corn (Zea mays) leaf sample from Burleigh County in south-central North Dakota (ND). The leaf had long, irregular, water-soaked lesions consistent with Goss's leaf blight of corn. Using a light microscope at 10× magnification, bacterial streaming was observed from the excised edge of leaf tissue. A bacterial suspension was created, streaked onto a semi-selective CNS medium (1), and incubated at 22°C. Dark yellow-orange colonies appeared on the medium after 5 days. Single colonies were subcultured onto additional CNS media. To verify the identity of the bacterial isolate, PCR amplification of the 16S ribosomal DNA from this isolate along with a known Clavibacter michiganensis spp. nebraskensis (Cmn) isolate collected in Indiana (4) was performed using the eubacterial universal primers 27f and 1525r (3). The 1,431-bp 16S rDNA region was obtained for each isolate and they were compared with each other and with those deposited in NCBI GenBank. Sequence alignment identified only one nucleotide difference between the ND isolate and the Indiana isolate. BLASTn search against the NCBI database showed the first 100 hits were described as C. michiganensis or unidentified Clavibacter sp. The ND isolate had a two-nucleotide difference with Cmn isolate NCPPB2581 (HE614873), and a three nucleotide difference was found with the C. michiganensis spp. michiganensis isolate NCPPB 382 (AM711867). To satisfy Koch's postulates, eight corn plants (Golden Cross Bantam) were grown in the greenhouse at 22 to 24°C. Four corn plants were inoculated at growth stage V4-V5 using a suspension of approximately 1 × 109 CFU/ml from cultures grown on CNS for 6 days. Wounds were created on the fifth leaf approximately 7 cm from the leaf tip using a tongue-seizing forceps outfitted with a rubber stopper composed of pins (2). Simultaneously, 1 ml of the bacterial suspension was delivered into the wounds through a hole on top of the rubber stopper. Four control plants were inoculated with sterile water in a similar fashion. No symptoms were observed on the control plants. After 6 days, long water-soaked symptoms were observed on leaves inoculated with the bacterial suspension. Using leaves with water-soaked lesions, the pathogen was re-isolated onto CNS media and subjected to PCR amplification, and the resulting amplicons were sequenced as before. The sequence of the amplicon from the re-isolation matched that of the original ND isolate. To our knowledge, this is the first account of Goss's leaf blight and wilt identified in ND. As the corn acreage and no-till production systems in the state have increased, the economic implications of this disease may become more significant. Recognition of symptoms and proper identification of this bacterial disease in the field should help reduce unnecessary foliar fungicide sprays. References: (1) D. C. Gross and A. K. Vidaver.

ISSN 0804–4643 The prolactin receptor (PRL-R), a member of the hematopoietin cytokine receptor superfamily, is widely distributed among mammalian tissues. To understand better the potential sites of action and onset of potential PRL responsiveness, the developmental distribution pattern of PRL-R mRNA expression in fetal and neonatal mice was examined. Fetal mouse tissues were collected at distinct stages from timed pregnancies. Following extraction of total RNA, onset of gene expression was evaluated via reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Southern hybridization was employed for verification. Expression of PRL-R mRNA was first observed on day 14 in the liver and cranium and on day 15 in the kidney, lung and thymus gland. Pituitary and adrenal glands were positive for PRL-R at day 18 of gestation through to day 1 of postnatal life. Neither whole fetuses prior to day 14 (days 10–13) of gestation nor skin and bladder tissues from 2-day-old mice generated detectable RT-PCR signals for PRL-R. The presence of PRL-R mRNA in fetal thymus and spleen tissues suggests a possible role for PRL in the development of the immune system. Prolactin may act directly on the pituitary to influence its own secretion and/or that of other pituitary-derived factors, as evidenced by the presence of PRL-R mRNA in the pituitary glands of fetal and 1-day-old mice. These data are the first to show the presence of PRL-R gene expression in various organ systems in fetal mice and suggest that PRL is among several factors necessary to coordinate developmental activities.

Abstract:
In September 2008, Veronica spicata ‘Royal Candles’ plants showing foliar symptoms typical of a rust infection were brought to the Plant Disease Clinic at the University of Minnesota. Plants were grown in a local nursery in Dakota County, Minnesota. A dark brown discoloration was apparent on the upper surface of the leaf with lighter brown pustules on the underside. Teliospores collected from the pustules were 2-celled with smooth walls and 36.35 to 48.87 μm long, 11.96 to 18.28 μm wide, and had a wall thickness of 1.33 to 2.61 μm, which is in accordance with type specimen of Puccinia veronicae-longifoliae (4). Pathogen identity was confirmed by comparison of the DNA sequence of nuclear ribosomal RNA region containing the internal transcribed spacer regions 1 and 2, 5.8S and the 5′ end of the 28S subunits between herbarium samples from the U.S. National Fungus Collection (BPI 841971/GenBank Accession JQ627617 and BPI 871789/GenBank Accession JQ627618) and the collected specimen (BPI 882886/GenBank Accession JQ627616). P. veronicae-longifoliae was first reported in the United States in 2004 from a commercial nursery in Michigan (2). Veronica rust has also been found in Michigan in 2005 and more recently in 2011 (1). The only other known report of Veronica rust in the United States occurred in Connecticut in 2007 (3). P. veronicae-longifoliae is not considered a quarantine pest by The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service due to the limited host range, the host not being on the threatened or endangered list and the host being of little economic or environmental importance (2).

Abstract:
Online learning is becoming an increasingly important aspect of higher education. Concerns about the effectiveness of online courses have prompted education administrators to look at how different learning theories can best be used to increase student learning. Learning Management Systems (LMS) have become one of the dominant technologies for delivering online education, and the North Dakota University System (NDUS) uses one of the most popular of these LMSs, Moodle. NDUS Moodle is designed and utilizes activities that are based on a learning theory called social constructivism. This research studies the usage of these activities, perceived instructor effectiveness, and the use of alternate tools outside the NDUS Moodle environment by surveying instructors of online-only NDUS Moodle courses for spring 2012.

Abstract:
The desire to attract an increasing number of minorities is pushing institutions of higher learning to brand themselves and communicate with students in ways that ensure their identification with the institution. Students' identification with an institution is one way to increase their enrollment numbers at the institution. This study was interested in determining whether NDSU's Graduate School and Office of Multicultural Programs used Cheney's (1983a) organizational identification inducement strategies in their recruitment and retention material that targeted multicultural graduate students. A closed coding textual analysis was used to analyze the material. Three of the four strategies were present in the analyzed communication material. Results are discussed in terms of key findings and practical implications for NDSU and other institutions that are interested in increasing their enrollment numbers of multicultural graduate students.

Abstract:
Utilizing annual forages to extend the grazing season can improve late-season forage production and quality, cow performance, and soil health; while providing a cost-effective alternative to drylot feeding. A four-year study tested three annual forage treatments using a single, dual, and dual crop with a herbicide burndown response variable (1 L/ha glyphosate, 250 mL/ha dicamba, 250 mL/ha 2,4-D) system. Treatments were foxtail millet (Setaria italica), turnip (Brassica rapa), a cocktail mix of six complementary species, and native range (control). Results found grazing foxtail millet in the single crop system and the dual crop with spray system, plus grazing turnip and cocktail mix in the dual crop with spray system, all provided on average cost-effective grazing options compared to grazing native range and feeding in a drylot system. The opportunity of increasing land-use efficiency was greatest with the dual crop with spray system, which was the most economical option in 2010.

Abstract:
Saskatoon serviceberry (Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt.) is an ornamental Rosaceous shrub producing delicate white flowers that yield fruit similar in appearance and nutrition to blueberry (Vaccinium spp.). Most serviceberry are propagated in Canada and, as imported stocks are often expensive, clones were accessed from 70 locations in North Dakota. Following establishment, a replicated field trial of wild biotypes of serviceberry was initiated at the North Dakota State University Horticulture Research Farm (NDSU HRF) near Absaraka, ND and at the Williston Research and Extension Center (WREC) in Williston, ND. Yield data was taken upon harvest in summers 2014-2017 at NDSU HRF and 2016 at WREC. ND 1-2, ND 1-4, ND 1-6, ND 1-7, ND 48-2 often out-yielded market genotypes. ND 15-2 was high in sugar content and gelling ability, ideal for processing. Through continued selection, North Dakota growers may have quality serviceberry from a local source.

Abstract:
Campus safety and security are important concerns for colleges and universities. One way security is addressed is through utilization of self-report questions about criminal backgrounds during the admissions process. The current study evaluates this admissions policy by using a systematic random sample of 1,400 students to compare self-reported criminal backgrounds with criminal records listed in four online databases. Results indicate that two individuals within the sample failed to report their criminal backgrounds which included simple assault, burglary, theft, possession of controlled substance, and drug paraphernalia. While the failed reporting rate appears low, caution should be taken interpreting the results. A number of policy implications and directions for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
Gylcoalkaloids (GA) are plant secondary metabolites that offer pests and disease resistance. Studies show correlation between GA content and CPB resistance. In this study, CPB resistance was assessed in a field trial at Grand Forks, ND, during 2012 for twenty-four genotypes from the NDSU Potato Breeding Program. Two treatments were applied, a block treated with imidacloprid (Admire?), and an untreated block. The treated block showed decreased CPB damage. Presence of aglycons (non-sugar moiety of GAs) was assessed by gas chromatography in foliar and tuber tissue. Distribution of GAs in the tuber was assessed to determine variation in tuber sections and whole tuber. Potato genotypes should be developed with tuber GAs levels below 20 mg/100 g fresh weight (FW) to ensure safety for human consumption. Focus should be on GAs that are only synthesized in the tuber, which will provide pests and disease resistance, while maintaining adequate yields and decreased inputs.

Abstract:
Fat-soluble vitamins are essential micronutrients that are critical in normal physiological processes. Deficiencies can pose increased risk of chronic diseases. This may be particularly important among college students, since the majority of this population is in peak phases of development. The purpose of this study was to determine intake of fat-soluble vitamins in 352 (212 males, 140 females) students. Students completed dietary analyses of their 72-hour food record, which were analyzed to determine if student intake met Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) recommendations. Additional analyses determined relationships between intake and gender, age, and frequency of attending a dining center. Few students met DRI for fat-soluble vitamins A (21%), D (3%), and E (7%). Moreover, <1% of students met the DRI for all 3 vitamins. Frequency of attending a dining center did not improve fat-soluble vitamin intake. In summary, few students are meeting DRI guidelines of fat-soluble vitamins.

Abstract:
The use of Genomic Selection has become popular due to its wide success in private and public breeding programs. The current dissertation aims to derive information that will be used to produce a single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) chip that can be used to successfully predict traits of economic importance for the North Dakota State University (NDSU) barley breeding program. Three training populations were tested to determine which should be used for predictive modeling. Multiple predictive models were employed to verify the most effective method for each individual trait. Through this research, four major findings were concluded: the successful identification of (i) the traits that are candidates for prediction, (ii) the most successful models for each trait, (iii) the minimum number of markers required to predict a trait, and (iv) the markers that should be included on NDSU barley breeding program’s new SNP chip for genomic selection.

Abstract:
AbstractThis introduction summarizes chapters of Part II. In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_9, Yamamoto (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:88–96, 2018) has compared between the street method, the asset valuation adopted for the imposition of property tax in Japan, and the computer-assisted mass appraisal (CAMA) method generally adopted in North America focusing on education and training of valuators. In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_10, Yamazaki (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:97–101, 2018) argues that one of the major causes for relatively low density use of land in the city in Japan is the land tax system. He focuses on property tax and examines defects of the tax from view of economist. In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_11, Kobayashi (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:129–138, 2018), taking an actual example, has examined difference between precise legal interpretation of ‘exemption from real estate acquisition tax due to purpose of use’ and taxation practices conducted by local administrative bodies. In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_12, Shirakawa and Okoshi (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:88–96, 2017) have shown that the real estate companies were committed to transactions as dual agencies to whatsoever degree, and analyzed attributes of real estate brokerage companies which are able to be dual agencies and how such dual agency affects contract price.In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_13, Ueno (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:97–105, 2017) has analyzed impacts of the macroeconomic conditions on the land price gradient curves which are estimated using real estate data of the Tokyo Metropolitan Area in 1970, 1976, 1985, 1988, 1994, 2008, 2010, and 2016. In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_14, Komatsu (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:110–118, 2017) has analyzed impacts that refurbishment of existing apartment has on possible increase in rent using the multinomial probit model and the Tobit model. In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_15, Hanazato (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:119–128, 2017) has shown that around 90% of condominium reconstruction cases are predictable using the estimated discriminant function in terms of objective real estate data only. In Chap. 10.1007/978-981-15-8848-8_16, Ota et al. (Jpn J Real Estate Sci 31:109–119, 2018) have analyzed determinants of rent for rental house, office, and shop within 10-min walking distance from Shibuya Station in Tokyo. Multiple regression analyses are conducted and have shown that space syntax (SS) measures (Hillier and Hanson, The Social Logic of Space. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1984) significantly affect rent as well as conventional location attributes.

Abstract:
This chapter will examine the organizational and technological challenges encountered by the highly successful Great Plains Interactive Distance Education Alliance (Great Plains IDEA) since its members began offering multi-university online academic programs in 2000. Members include the following universities: Colorado State, Iowa State, Kansas State, Texas Tech, Michigan State, Missouri, Montana State, Nebraska, North Dakota State, Oklahoma State, and South Dakota State. Inter-institutional online academic programs are a cost-effective means of rapidly increasing access and addressing emerging educational needs. The chapter explains how the Great Plains IDEA began, operates and has evolved, as well as the mistakes made, lessons learned, and upcoming challenges. A major technological challenge was identifying a secure multi-institution enrollment system for sharing student data between enrolling and teaching institutions the award-winning ExpanSIS system. The authors hope that higher education leaders will be convinced that inter-institutional collaboration is a viable solution to many higher education challenges.

Abstract:
The North Dakota State University (NDSU) World Wide Web Instructional Committee (WWWIC) is an inter-disciplinary research team, which has, since the 1990s, developed multi-user, interactive virtual environments (IVEs) to teach the structure and process of various branches of science. The most developed of these include the “Geology Explorer” and the “Virtual Cell,” (VCell). This chapter describes the key features the Virtual Cell and the Geology Explorer, the underlying philosophy and educational theory guiding their development, and results of large controlled experiments that investigate their effectiveness on student learning. Additionally, ongoing projects andexperiments of the team relevant to the development and dissemination of these software programs are explored. The underlying purpose of our IVEs is to increase student achievement and scientific problem-solving skills while providing students with opportunities to learn-by-doing in a real-world context. Research findings collected for almost a decade demonstrate the positive impact of our IVEs on science students.

Abstract:
The World Wide Web Instructional Committee at North Dakota State University has developed a number of serious games aimed at science education. Their games are all multiuser, with a role-based orientation, promoting a task-and-goal cultural awareness. Constructed in collaboration with content experts, these games were developed under a proven set of design guidelines (design principles and signature elements) that serve to preserve consistency among the applications. As a consequence of this high-concept design constraint, their systems share important cognitive and pedagogical features that assist players in learning the serious game content while also allowing for consistent evaluation of learning outcomes across games. The authors have formatively evaluated these games and found them to be effective. It is now their hope that by sharing their design guidelines, others may be able to use and evaluate them to their advantage. The authors continue to develop and refine these design principles and signature elements through basic and evaluative research.

Full text
Abstract:
This is the story of how a young surgeon, Donald Eugene Strandness Jr (Gene) was instrumental in the development of the Doppler ultrasonic flow meter, which evolved into the duplex scanner — perhaps the most versatile instrument in the modern vascular lab. He was born in Bowman, North Dakota, in 1928, and attended high school in Olympia, washington, where he was a football player and a star gymnast. He graduated from Pacific Lutheran University in 1946, studied medicine at the University of washington (Uw), and in 1950 entered the general surgical residency programme. At the time of the Korean war, Gene was drafted out of his residency; met his 2-year service obligation to the United States Air Force; and in 1959 returned to Seattle, where he hoped to join in the extensive research underway on the gastrointestinal system under the direction of Professor Henry Harkins. Instead, Dr Harkins urged him to change directions and join a small group at the Seattle VA Hospital who were investigating arterial disease. This group included John Bell, Hub Radke, and J.E. Jesseph. Strandness, swallowing his initial disappointment at having to give up gastrointestinal research, quickly embraced the vascular challenge. The 1950s were a particularly exciting time in the history of vascular surgery. Improved sutures, grafts, and anaesthesia made it possible for the first time to perform major arterial surgery, such as resection of abdominal aortic aneurysms, endarterectomy of the carotid bifurcation, and bypass of iliac, femoral, and popliteal arteries. In preparation for major arterial surgery, the need for imaging was keenly felt. Physiological studies to select patients for surgery took a backseat to arteriograms and physical examination — in part because pulse palpation and patient testimony were the only methods readily available for measuring preoperative functional impairment or postoperative success. Invasive methods for studying blood flow were limited to electromagnetic flowmetry, which was performed in the operating room with the patient anaesthetized. No effort was made to duplicate normal physiological conditions. Prior to the 1960s, a few surgeons and internists maintained rudimentary vascular labs where systolic blood pressure and blood flow were measured plethysmographically.

Abstract:
An active three-axis gimbal system is developed to allow small fixed wing Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) platforms to estimate accurate position information by pointing at a target and also to track a known target location. Specific targets vary from a stationary point on the ground to aircraft in the national airspace. The payload developed to accomplish this at the University of North Dakota is the Surveillance by University of North Dakota Observational Gimbal (SUNDOG). This paper will focus on a novel, nonlinear closed form analytical algorithm developed to calculate the exact rotation angles for a three-axis gimbal system to point a digital imaging sensor at a target, as well as how to estimate accurate position of a target by using the pointing angles of a three-axis gimbal system. A kinematic analysis is done on a three-axis gimbal system to get the appropriate model of gimbal rotations in order to point at a certain location on the ground. The mathematical model includes an inertial coordinate system that has coordinates fixed to the Earth, a coordinate system that is body-fixed to the aircraft, and a third coordinate system that is fixed to the gimbal. Therefore, multiple three-dimensional transformations are required to accurately provide the necessary pointing angles to the gimbal system. The autonomous control system uses Global Positioning System (GPS), Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), and other sensor data to estimate position and attitude during flight. Since the algorithm is entirely based on Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and Global Positioning System (GPS) device inputs, any error from these devices cause offset in the target location. Hence, an error analysis is carried out to find the offset distance and the operating range of the algorithm. The main advantage obtained in the three-axis gimbal system is that the orientation of the image will always be aligned in a specified direction for effective interpretation. The closed form expressions to the non-linear transformations provide simple solutions easily programmed without large computational expense. Experimental work will be carried out in a controlled environment and in flight testing to show the autonomous tracking ability of the gimbal system. Simulation and experimental data illustrating the effectiveness of the surveillance algorithms is presented.

Abstract:
An undergraduate team consisting of mechanical and electrical engineering students at the University of North Dakota developed an electro-optical and un-cooled thermal infrared digital imaging remote sensing payload for an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The first iteration of the payload design began in the fall of 2005 and the inaugural flight tests took place at Camp Ripley, Minnesota, a National Guard facility, in the fall of 2006 with a corporate partner. The second iteration design with increased performance in object tracking and data processing is expected to fly in the summer of 2007. Payload development for integration into a UAV is a process that is not currently well defined by industrial practices or regulated by government. These processes are a significant part of the research being conducted in order to define the “best practices.” The emerging field of UAVs generates tremendous interest and serves to attract quality students into the research. As with many emerging technologies there are many new exciting developments, however, the fundamentals taught in core courses are still critical to the process and serve as the basis of the system. In this manner, the program stimulates innovative design while maintaining a solid connection to undergraduate courses and illustrates the importance of advanced courses. The payload development was guided by off-the-shelf components and software using a systems engineering methodology throughout the project. Many of the design and payload flight constraints were based on external factors, such as difficulties with access to airspace, weather-related delays, and ITAR restrictions on hardware. Overall, the research project continues to be a tremendous experiential learning activity for mechanical and electrical engineering students, as well as for the faculty members. The process has been extremely successful in enhancing the expertise in systems engineering and design in the students and developing the UAV payload design knowledge base and necessary infrastructure at the university.

In ASME 2008 2nd International Conference on Energy Sustainability collocated with the Heat Transfer, Fluids Engineering, and 3rd Energy Nanotechnology Conferences. ASMEDC, 2008. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/es2008-54325.

Full text
Abstract:
Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) is believed to be one of the most promising technologies to offer electricity and other de-carbon fuels with carbon capture requirement as well as to meet other emission regulations at a relatively low cost. As one of the most important parts, different gasification technologies can greatly influence the performance of the system. This paper develops a model to examine the feasibilities and advantages of using Ultra Superheated Steam (USS) gasification technology in IGCC power plant with carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). USS gasification technology converts coal into syngas by the endothermic steam reforming reaction, and the heat required for this reaction is provided by the sensible heat in the ultra superheated steam. A burner utilizes synthetic air (21% O2 and 79% H2O) to burn fuel gas to produce the USS flame for the gasification process. The syngas generated from USS gasification has a higher hydrogen fraction (more than 50%) then other gasification processes. This high ratio of hydrogen is considered to be desired for a “capture-ready” IGCC plant. After gas cleanup and water gas shift reaction, the syngas goes to the Selexol process for carbon dioxide removal. Detailed calculations and analysis are performed to test the performance of USS gasification technology used in IGCC generation systems. Final results such as net output, efficiency penalty for CO2 capture part, and net thermal efficiency are calculated and compared when three different coal types are used. This paper uses published data of USS gasification from previous research at the University of North Dakota. The model also tries to treat the IGCC with carbon dioxide capture system as a whole thermal system, the superheated steam used in USS gasification can be provided by extracting steam from the lower pressure turbine in the Rankine Cycle. The model will make reasonable use of various waste energies and steams for both mechanical and chemical processes to improve the performance of the plant, and incorporate CO2 capture system into the design concept of the power plant.

Full text
Abstract:
The rapid growth in population and related demand for travel during the past few decades has had a catalytic effect on traffic congestion, air quality, and safety in many urban areas. Transportation managers and planners have planned for new facilities to cater to the needs of users of alternative modes of transportation (e.g., public transportation, walking, and bicycling) over the next decade. However, there are no widely accepted methods, nor there is enough evidence to justify whether such plans are instrumental in improving mobility of the transportation system. Therefore, this project researches the operational performance of urban roads with heterogeneous traffic conditions to improve the mobility and reliability of people and goods. A 4-mile stretch of the Blue Line light rail transit (LRT) extension, which connects Old Concord Rd and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte’s main campus on N Tryon St in Charlotte, North Carolina, was considered for travel time reliability analysis. The influence of crosswalks, sidewalks, trails, greenways, on-street bicycle lanes, bus/LRT routes and stops/stations, and street network characteristics on travel time reliability were comprehensively considered from a multimodal perspective. Likewise, a 2.5-mile-long section of the Blue Line LRT extension, which connects University City Blvd and Mallard Creek Church Rd on N Tryon St in Charlotte, North Carolina, was considered for simulation-based operational analysis. Vissim traffic simulation software was used to compute and compare delay, queue length, and maximum queue length at nine intersections to evaluate the influence of vehicles, LRT, pedestrians, and bicyclists, individually and/or combined. The statistical significance of variations in travel time reliability were particularly less in the case of links on N Tryon St with the Blue Line LRT extension. However, a decrease in travel time reliability on some links was observed on the parallel route (I-85) and cross-streets. While a decrease in vehicle delay on northbound and southbound approaches of N Tryon St was observed in most cases after the LRT is in operation, the cross-streets of N Tryon St incurred a relatively higher increase in delay after the LRT is in operation. The current pedestrian and bicycling activity levels seemed insignificant to have an influence on vehicle delay at intersections. The methodological approaches from this research can be used to assess the performance of a transportation facility and identify remedial solutions from a multimodal perspective.
