Abstract:
When asked to participate in a panel discussion about teaching women's history back in June 1988, I responded enthusiastically. I knew the occasion would provide an opportunity for me to speak about the students I had taught at the University of Alabama at Birmingham over the preceding five years. "UAB," as the university is called, is an urban campus that sprawls over 60 square blocks of the city, about one and one-half miles from the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, and two miles from Birmingham's infamous City Hall. The undergraduate college at UAB was 20 years old in 1989; organized after the Birmingham civil rights movement, the college is a vibrant symbol of the "New Birmingham." Today, the University is the city's largest employer, with a student body of 15,000 that is twenty percent black. Students come from an area once known as "The Birmingham District," the mountains and valleys of north central Alabama, rich in the coal and iron-ore that formed the bedrock of Birmingham's economy.

Abstract:
INTRODUÇÃO A mobilidade é um componente importante da funcionalidade, necessária para realização das atividades de vida diária. O questionário The University of Alabama at Birminghan Study of Aging Life-Space Assessment (LSA) avalia a mobilidade através dos espaços que o idoso ocupa, a frequência e independência com que se desloca. O LSA é um dos poucos instrumentos que avalia a mobilidade sob o aspecto da participação e é composto por cinco questões simples e de fácil aplicação. Além disso, a avaliação pode ser realizada presencialmente ou à distância, como por exemplo, através de contato telefônico. Já existem versões do LSA validadas para utilização em outros países e, na ausência de uma versão validada em português brasileiro do LSA, faz-se necessária a adaptação transcultural e análise das propriedades de medida desta versão, para incrementar as opções de avaliação da mobilidade de idosos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi adaptar transculturalmente para o português brasileiro o instrumento LSA e testar as propriedades de medida desta versão. MÉTODOS Este estudo de adaptação transcultural e clinimetria foi realizado em duas fases. Fase I - adaptação transcultural e validade de conteúdo: foi realizada a adaptação transcultural do questionário e suas instruções de aplicação. O pré-teste das instruções e do questionário foi realizado com 10 profissionais, e o pré-teste do questionário foi realizado com 30 idosos da comunidade. Fase II - análise das propriedades de medida (reprodutibilidade, validade de construto e interpretabilidade): foram incluídos 80 idosos da comunidade. Inicialmente foi aplicado o LSA em português brasileiro e foi colocado um acelerômetro na cintura do participante. Após sete dias, o acelerômetro foi retirado e o questionário foi reaplicado. A reprodutibilidade foi analisada através do teste alpha de Cronbach (consistência interna), Coeficientes de Correlação Intraclasse (CCI) e intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%) (confiabilidade), e erro padrão da medida (erro de medida). A validade de construto foi analisada através da correlação de Pearson entre os escores do LSA e acelerometria (tempo em atividades sedentárias e tempo em atividades moderadas e vigorosas). A interpretabilidade foi analisada através de histograma, cálculo da diferença mínima detectável (DMD) e determinação de efeitos piso e teto. RESULTADOS Foi obtida a versão em português brasileiro do questionário LSA e suas instruções de aplicação. Essa versão atendeu aos critérios adotados neste trabalho para validade de conteúdo. A consistência interna apresentou alpha de Cronbach de 0,92 e confiabilidade com CCI de 0,97 (IC95% 0,95 a 0,98). O erro padrão da medida foi calculado em 4,12 pontos (3%). O escore do LSA apresentou correlação negativa com o tempo em atividades sedentárias (R = -0,63; p < 0,001) e correlação positiva com o tempo em atividades moderadas e vigorosas (R = 0,49; p < 0,001), a DMD foi de 0,36 pontos, e não houve efeitos piso e teto. CONCLUSÃO A versão em português brasileiro do LSA reproduz a versão original com reprodutibilidade, validade e interpretabilidade adequadas. Recomendamos, portanto, a utilização desta versão para avaliação da mobilidade dos espaços de vida dos idosos brasileiros<br>BACKGROUND Mobility is an important component of functionality, necessary for performance of activities of daily living. The questionnaire The University of Alabama at Birmingham Study of Aging Life-Space Assessment (LSA) evaluates mobility from the spaces that older adults go, the frequency and independence that the person moves through these spaces. The LSA is one among only few instruments that evaluate mobility in the context of participation, and it consists of five simple and quick questions. In addition, the questionnaire may be applied in person or by telephone. There are already validated versions of the LSA for use in other countries and, in the absence of a validated version of the LSA in Brazilian Portuguese, it is necessary to adapt cross-culturally and to analyze the measurement properties of the adapted version, in order to increase the options for mobility evaluation of older adults. The purpose of this study was to adapt cross-culturally the LSA into Brazilian Portuguese, and to analyze its measurement properties. METHODS This cross-cultural adaptation and clinimetric study was conducted in two phases. Phase I - cross-cultural adaptation and analysis of content validity: we performed a cross-cultural adaption of the questionnaire and its instructions for application. The adapted version was pretested with 10 professionals and 30 community-dwelling older adults. Phase II - analysis of measurement properties (reliability, construct validity and interpretability): we included 80 community-dwelling older adults. Initially, the adapted LSA was applied; and we put an accelerometer on the participant\'s waist. After seven days, the accelerometer was removed and the questionnaire was reapplied. Reliability was analyzed by the Cronbach\'s alpha (internal consistency), intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) (reproducibility), and standard error of measurement (measurement error). The construct validity was analyzed by Pearson\'s correlation between the scores of LSA and accelerometry data (time in sedentary activities and time in moderate and vigorous activities). Interpretability was analyzed by histograms, minimal detectable change (MDC), and determination of floor and ceiling effects. RESULTS We obtained a Brazilian Portuguese version of the LSA and its instructions for application. This version met the criteria for content validity adopted in this study. Internal consistency (Cronbach\'s alpha) was 0.92 and reproducibility (ICC) was 0.97 (95%CI 0.95 to 0.98). The standard error of measurement was calculated in 4.12 points (3%). The LSA score showed negative correlation with sedentary activities (R = -0.63; p < 0.001), and positive correlation with moderate to vigorous activities (R = 0.49; p < 0.001), the MDC was 0.36 points, and we observed no floor or ceiling effects. CONCLUSION The Brazilian Portuguese version of the LSA reproduces the original version with adequate reliability, validity and interpretability. We therefore recommend the use of this version to evaluate life-space mobility of Brazilian older adults

Abstract:
This dissertation is a historical investigation into the relationship between the North and South during the civil rights movement and into the struggle for racial equality and justice between 1940 and 1965. It challenges the notion that the CIvil rights movement was a southern phenomenon that moved North during the 1960s. Too often, civil rights literature has considered the southern movement, while excluding northern struggles. The dominance of the southern narrative is reinforced by a frequently articulated assertion that African-Americans in the urban North found non-violent direction irrelevant. The latter's turn to the North results in analysis that posit a passive, disorganised inarticulate northern AfricanAmerican population that became impulsive when the southern civil rights movement failed to change black lives. What my study hopes to do is quite simply to place the southern movement in a comparative context by examining the civil rights movement outside the South. Unlike much of the historiography of the civil rights movement, the experiences of northern activists, in addition to activists in the South, are of importance in my narrative. Employing organisational documents, letters, newspapers, private collections, and over thirty personal interviews, this work demonstrates that, well before the urban rebellions, northern activists employed research, rallies, and sit-ins to forward integration. It moves between the civil rights movement in one city in the South, Binningham, and the civil rights movement in one city in the North, Detroit, demonstrating the continual connections and mutual reinforcement that occurred between northern and southern movements throughout the twenty five-year struggle

Abstract:
This thesis explores the municipal politics and race relations in Birmingham, Alabama, from October 1963 to November 1979. While Birmingham is a centerpiece of the traditional Civil Rights Movement for its staging of the Bull Connor and Martin Luther King, Jr., confrontation in 1963, there has been little examination of the continuing struggles between the black and white communities in the years after the media spotlight. Of particular concern are the battles between the black community, white power structure, and the city’s police department over black policemen, professionalization and modernization, and police brutality. The changing role and tactics of black leadership in the city is also a major interest.

The target country was Zambia, Africa, which is one of the poorest countries in the world. In Zambia, the majority of the population lives on less than $2 USD per day [1]. Lack of medical facilities and doctors leads to many serious health issues. Infection often leads to amputation, creating a need for low cost crutches.

Abstract:
Abstract The Center for Biophysical Sciences and Engineering (CBSE) at the University of Alabama at Birmingham has performed protein crystal growth experiments on more than 37 U.S. space shuttle missions. Results from these experiments have clearly demonstrated that the microgravity environment is beneficial in that a number of proteins crystallized were larger and of higher quality than their earth-grown counterparts. Improvement in crystal quality is judged by analysis of ultimate diffraction resolution, individual peak mosaicity, and electron density maps. There are now a number of protein crystals that exhibited resolution improvements of 0.5Å to 1.5Å. Mosaicity studies revealed dramatic decreases in peak widths for the microgravity-grown crystals. These microgravity results plus data from a variety of other investigators have stimulated various space agencies to support fundamental studies in macromolecular crystal growth processes. The CBSE has devoted substantial effort toward the development of dynamically-controlled crystal growth systems which allow scientists to optimize crystallization parameters on Earth or in space. These systems enable monitoring and control of the approach to nucleation and post-nucleation growth phases, thereby dramatically improving the crystal size and x-ray diffraction characteristics. The CBSE is currently designing a complete crystallographic laboratory for the International Space Station including: a crystal growth rack, which will support a variety of crystallization hardware systems; an x-ray diffraction rack for crystal characterization or a complete x-ray data set collection; and robotically-controlled crystal harvesting/cryopreservation systems that can be operated with minimal crew time via telerobotic and/or robotic procedures. Key elements of the x-ray system include unique x-ray focusing technology combined with a lightweight, low power source. The x-ray detection system is based on commercial CCD-based technology. This paper will describe the x-ray facility envisioned for the International Space Station.

Abstract:
This paper presents a project developed at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) aimed to design, implement, and test an off-road Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) with individually controlled four drive wheels that operate in stochastic terrain conditions. An all-wheel drive off-road UGV equipped with individual electric dc motors for each wheel offers tremendous potential to control the torque delivered to each individual wheel in order to maximize UGV slip efficiency by minimizing slip power losses. As previous studies showed, this can be achieved by maintaining all drive wheels slippages the same. Utilizing this approach, an analytical method to control angular velocities of all wheels was developed to provide the same slippages of the four wheels. This model-based method was implemented in an inverse dynamics-based control algorithm of the UGV to overcome stochastic terrain conditions and minimize wheel slip power losses and maintain a given velocity profile. In this paper, mechanical and electrical components and control algorithm of the UGV are described in order to achieve the objective. Optical encoders built-in each dc motor are used to measure the actual angular velocity of each wheel. A fifth wheel rotary encoder sensor is attached to the chassis to measure the distance travel and estimate the longitudinal velocity of the UGV. In addition, the UGV is equipped with four electric current sensors to measure the current draw from each dc motor at various load conditions. Four motor drivers are used to control the dc motors using National Instruments single-board RIO controller. Moreover, power system diagrams and controller pinout connections are presented in detail and thus explain how all these components are integrated in a mechatronic system. The inverse dynamics control algorithm is implemented in real-time to control each dc motors individually. The integrated mechatronics system is distinguished by its robustness to stochastic external disturbances as shown in the previous papers. It also shows a promising adaptability to disturbances in wheel load torques and changes in stochastic terrain properties. The proposed approach, modeling and hardware implementation opens up a new way to the optimization and control of both unmanned ground vehicle dynamics and vehicle energy efficiency by optimizing and controlling individual power distribution to the drive wheels.
