Abstract:
This syllabus represents a course taught online through the University of Maine at Augusta in the fall of 2011 (and every otheryear thereafter). Critical pedagogy can be a challenge in any classroom, and the challenges in an online classroom are compounded. However, the subject matter and approach of Hip Hop can be a powerful tool in teaching students critical thinking skills as well in laying a foundation for interdisciplinary and intersectional theory; here these elements are represented through curriculum—the themes, texts, contexts,approaches, structure, and assignments.

Abstract. Seven C1-C5 alkyl nitrates were measured both on the mainland and off the coast of New Hampshire using gas chromatographic techniques. Five separate data sets are presented to characterize the seasonal and diurnal trends and the major sources and loss processes of these compounds. Based on in situ measurements conducted at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) Atmospheric Observing Station at Thompson Farm (TF) located in southeast NH during winter (January–February) 2002, summer (June–August) 2002, summer (July–August) 2004, and on daily canister samples collected at midday from January 2004–February 2008, the median total alkyl nitrate mixing ratio (ΣRONO2) was 23–25 pptv in winter and 14–16 pptv in summer. During summers 2002 and 2004, MeONO2 decreased overnight and reached minimum hourly average mixing ratios in the early morning. Comparison with wind speed and trace gas trends suggested that dry deposition contributed to the early morning MeONO2 minimum which is a previously unaccounted for removal mechanism. The mean dry deposition rate and velocity of MeONO2 was estimated to be −0.5 nmol m−2 hr−1 and 0.13 cm s−1, respectively. Results from ambient air and surface seawater measurements made onboard the NOAA R/V Ronald H. Brown in the Gulf of Maine during the 2002 New England Air Quality Study and from ambient canister samples collected throughout the Great Bay estuary in August 2003 are also presented. Comparisons between the alkyl nitrate trends with anthropogenic and marine tracers suggest that a marine source of alkyl nitrates is not significant in coastal New England. Given the apparent prominence of a secondary source, comparisons between observed and predicted alkyl nitrate/parent hydrocarbon ratios were made which demonstrated that background mixing ratios have a continuous and prevalent influence on the alkyl nitrate distribution.

Abstract. Seven C1-C5 alkyl nitrates were measured both on the mainland and off the coast of New Hampshire using gas chromatographic techniques. Five separate data sets will be presented to characterize the seasonal and diurnal trends and the major sources and loss processes of these compounds. In situ measurements were conducted at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) Atmospheric Observing Station at Thompson Farm (TF) located in southeast NH during winter (January–February) and summer (June–August) 2002 and summer (July–August) 2004. The median (±standard deviation) total alkyl nitrate mixing ratio (ΣRONO2) was 25 (±7) in winter and 16 (±14) pptv in summer. Furthermore, daily canister samples collected at midday and later analyzed in the laboratory from January 2004–February 2008 gave median ΣRONO2 of 23 (±8) in winter and 14 (±10) pptv in summer. Alkyl nitrate mixing ratios increased throughout the morning and were highest in the afternoon reflecting mixing of remnant boundary layer air toward the surface and photochemical production during the day. During summers 2002 and 2004, MeONO2 decreased overnight and reached minimum hourly average mixing ratios in the early morning (05:00–07:00 LT). Comparison with wind speed and trace gas (i.e., hydrocarbons, ozone, carbon monoxide, total reactive nitrogen) trends suggested that dry deposition contributed to the early morning MeONO2 minimum which is a previously unaccounted for removal mechanism. The mean dry deposition rate and velocity of MeONO2 was estimated to be −0.5 nmol m−2 hr−1 and 0.13 cm s−1, respectively. Results from ambient air and surface seawater measurements made onboard the NOAA R/V Ronald H. Brown in the Gulf of Maine during the 2002 New England Air Quality Study and from ambient canister samples collected throughout the Great Bay estuary in August 2003 are also presented. Comparisons between the alkyl nitrate trends with anthropogenic and marine source fingerprints and tracers suggest that a marine source of alkyl nitrates is not significant in coastal New England. Given the apparent prominence of a secondary source, comparisons between observed and predicted alkyl nitrate/parent hydrocarbon ratios were made which demonstrated that background mixing ratios have a continuous and prevalent influence on the alkyl nitrate distribution.

Abstract:
This chapter includes a series of unusual cases from Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Georgia, London, and Paris. A twenty-five-year-old Maine woman with the usual symptoms of pulmonary consumption developed postpartum chest pains and a swollen leg, was treated, and all symptoms resolved. A twenty-year-old physician from New Hampshire was subject to frequent and profuse hemoptysis, up to a pint of blood at a time. Besides frequent bloodletting to obviate plethora, he conceived of the idea of the efficacy of breast milk. Of every nursing woman whom he met, he solicited permission to draw her breasts. After a year of little or no other nourishment, except cow’s milk when he could not find a supply of breast milk, he had become nearly free from hemoptysis. He died at the age of fifty-seven. An 1822 case of chest surgery and rib-resection for infection in Augusta, Georgia, was reported in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Abstract:
In 1795 Barker read Lavoisier’s chemistry, experimented on tainted meat made edible by soaking in alkalis, and began using alkaline therapy such a limewater. He wrote about this to Samuel Mitchill and Benjamin Rush, telling them that he had been called a “dangerous innovator.” A brief history of the acid/alkali debates of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries includes information about Otto Tachenius, John Colbatch, Hermann Boerhaave, George Ernst Stahl, William Cullen, Joseph Black, and Antoine Lavoisier. Barker wrote about his experiments, azotic air (nitrogen), and his difficulty understanding the mechanism of this apparently successful therapy. His results were published in the Medical Repository, beginning a correspondence with Samuel Latham Mitchill, professor of chemistry at Columbia University. Contributors to the discussion of alkalis included David Hosack, Thomas Beddoes and James Watt, Humphry Davy, and Matthew Carey. Comments by Charles Rosenberg, John Harley Warner, Lester King, and others help us make sense of medical science and the acid/alkali battle.

Abstract:
Barker relates some unusual cases such as empyema (pus between lung and chest wall) in a fifty-five-year-old minister who was treated, drained, and lived for an additional thirty-eight years. A president of the College of New Jersey (later Princeton University) who had long-standing lung symptoms wrote a letter stating that he was such a devotee of venesection that he bought himself a lancet for self-treatment. In 1811 Barker’s twenty-five-year-old daughter, Eliza, daughter of a consumptive mother, developed chest pain, hacking cough, fever, and wasting. She received standard treatment by a physician acquaintance but rejected her father’s and a consultant’s suggestion to be bled. Eliza deteriorated, finally agreed to be bled, and was cured after five months of symptoms. She married in June and was doing well twenty years later. In Barker’s opinion, prevention should focus on proper clothing for women for “If the breast is left open to facilitate the entrance of Cupid’s darts, it affords a more certain mark for the envenomed shafts of the grisly king of terrors” (Joseph Young, 1809).

Abstract:
The chapter begins with epidemics of influenza in Maine from 1758 and is introduced by a reference to Noah Webster’s A Brief History of Epidemic and Pestilential Diseases (1799). Barker discusses his and other Maine physicians’ experience from 1780–1795 with cancer, predominantly of skin, node, and breast, seldom treated with success. He details a Portland newspaper article of 1818 graphically describing the last days of a woman’s seventeen-year battle with a lip cancer and refers to a book by a Dr. William Steward of Canaan, Maine reporting forty-seven cancers extracted “without a knife.” Finally, Barker relates his 1795 experience of obtaining a tainted quarter of veal that became palatable after soaking overnight in lye (alkali). With his reading of Lavoisier’s chemistry, Barker began to treat his patients successfully with alkalis to rid them of the “septic poisons.” He recorded his experience and sent a letter to New York City, where it was read by Professor Samuel Mitchill at Columbia University. Mitchill, an editor of the first US medical journal, the Medical Repository, published Barker’s letter, the first of many to be published in that journal over the next twenty years.

This document summarizes the initial findings of the I-Fit research project that started in August 2006 as a joint activity of a regional ICT consultancy and a university research center. The main goal of the project is to help the consultants to improve alignment between business and IT in the client organizations. The I-Fit project takes the perspective of the business manager: how a business manager can influence and increase the value of the IT services that he receives. Based on the literature on strategic alignment and Information quality, we develop the I-Fit model. The model assumes causal relationships between IT governance, Strategic Alignment, Information Quality, and Business Performance in an organization.

It provides an analysis of Anderson’s views of law and Islam against the backdrop of evolving conceptions of modernity and shifting Christian theological understandings of non-Christian religions. Anderson was particularly influenced by traditions of reflection on comparative law initiated by Henry Maine and appraisals of Islam shaped by conservative Evangelicalism.

Abstract:
The aim of this research is to examine the factors that influence student perceptions of the image of Qatar’s national university, Qatar University. The study builds on relevant scholarship on perceptions of organizational image and explores institutional image perceptions in the state of Qatar. Based on data collected from a sample of 1427 students in Qatar, this study uses factor analysis in order to identify the variables that influence students’ perceptions of Qatar University. The findings of this study indicate that the way students perceive Qatar University is determined by four main factors: Quality of education, comparability of educational standards, the facilities and extracurricular activities provided, and graduates’ employability. The paper concludes with recommendations for institutional policy and future research. This piece of research has been published in August 2020 at the scopus indexed International Journal of Management (IJM).

Abstract:
[This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology] Aim/Purpose : The uptake of university by regional students has been problematic for various reasons. This paper discusses a program, initiated by a South Australian regional university campus, aimed at attracting regional students into higher education. Background: A qualitative descriptive approach to study was used to determine the value of the program on participating students and school staff. Year 10 students from Roxby Downs, Port Augusta and Port Lincoln high schools were invited to participate in a two-day regionally-focussed school-university engagement program that linked students with the university campus and local employers. Methodology: A survey was administered to determine the impact of the program. Perceptions about the program by school staff were gathered using a modified One-Minute Harvard questionnaire. While 38 Year 10 students and 5 school staff members participated, 37 students and 3 staff evaluated the program. Findings: The findings revealed that the majority of the students would like to attend university, but financial and social issues were important barriers. The students learned about the regional university, what it can offer in terms of programs and support, and the employment prospect following university. The school staff benefited by developing a closer relationship with students and becoming better informed about the regional university. Recommendation for Practitioners: One way by which university uptake may be increased is to provide similar immersion programs featuring engagement with employers, our recommendation to other regional universities. In increasing the levels of education, individuals, communities and the society in general are benefited.

Abstract:
A new floating wind turbine platform design called VolturnUS developed by the University of Maine uses innovations in materials, construction, and deployment technologies such as a concrete semi-submersible hull and a composite tower to reduce the costs of offshore wind. These novel characteristics require research and development prior to full-scale construction. This paper presents a unique offshore model testing effort aimed at de-risking full-scale commercial projects by providing properly scaled global motion data, allowing for implementation of full-scale structural materials, and demonstrating full-scale construction and deployment methods. The model is a 1:8-scale model of a 6MW semi-submersible floating wind turbine and was deployed offshore Castine, Maine, USA in June, 2013. The model uses a fully operational turbine and was the first grid connected offshore wind turbine in the Americas. The testing effort includes careful treatment of the offshore test site, scaling methods, model design, and construction. A suitable test site was identified that provides the correct proportions of wind and wave loading in order to simulate design load cases prescribed by the American Bureau of Shipping Standard for Building and Classing Floating Offshore Wind Turbines. Sample model test data is provided. Model test data is directly compared to full-scale design predictions made using coupled aeroelastic/ hydrodynamic software. VolturnUS performance data from scaled extreme sea states show excellent agreement with predictive models. Model test data are also compared to a numerical representation of the physical model for the purposes of numerical code validation. The numerical model results compare very favorably with data collected from the physical model.

Abstract:
In an effort to harness the abundant offshore wind resource over deepwater, the development of numerical design tools for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) has progressed steadily in recent years. However, at present, a validated model capable of completely coupling the full elastodynamic response between the mooring system, floating support structure, turbine tower and the wind turbine is not commercially available. The University of Maine has developed a new FOWT design, VolturnUS, which utilizes a concrete semi-submersible hull. For the VolturnUS design effort a number of numerical models were developed to analyze the system’s global performance. This paper presents the results of a validation study conducted to quantify the accuracy and suitability of a subset of these models for use in the design of the VolturnUS FOWT. Validation was conducted via comparisons of numerical model results to test data obtained from a 1:50 scale model testing campaign conducted by the University of Maine at the Maritime Research Institute, Netherlands offshore basin. The validation study evaluated the performance and capabilities of the numerical models over a range of design conditions. Emphasis was placed on design load cases (DLCs), which were found to govern the design of the FOWT. The DLCs follow the American Bureau of Shipping’s (ABS) Guide for Building and Classing Floating Offshore Wind Turbines. Through this method of model validation this work sought to quantify the numerical models’ accuracy, highlight their limitations, justify design assumptions, and identify areas requiring further development in the field of FOWT numerical modeling.

Abstract:
Literature relating to offshore wind energy generation is produced at a significant rate, as research efforts are diverted to the emerging area of future clean energy. This paper presents an overview of recent research in the specific area of floating offshore structure design for wind energy. Earlier literature has broadly grouped these platforms into three categories based on their source of stability: - Ballast stabilized (low center of gravity), e.g. spar - Mooring stabilized, e.g. Tension Leg Platform - Buoyancy or water-plane stabilized, e.g. semi-submersible. These concepts were modifications of similar structures used in the offshore oil and gas industry. Recent papers have presented further improvements to these designs including active ballasting and control systems. These are examined for stability and global performance behavior and ease of operability and maintenance. The paper also attempts to examine efforts to bring such concepts to fruition. Combined with this, the authors highlight activities that are ongoing in a consortium of industry and research institutions that is headed by the University of Maine. The origin of such a consortium is explained with reference to the future wind energy potential offshore Maine. This paper sets the stage for other papers in the Special Session on UMaine/ DeepCWind Consortium within the Offshore Renewable Energy Symposium at OMAE 2012.

Abstract:
Abstract In this report, a resiliency analysis is carried out to assess the energy, economic, and power outage survivability benefits of efficient and Net-Zero communities. The analysis addresses the appropriate steps to designing an energy-efficient and Net-Zero community using Phoenix, Arizona as a primary location for weather and utility inputs. A baseline home is established using International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) 2018 code requirements. Three occupancy levels are evaluated in BEopt to provide diversity in the community’s building stock. The loads from the baseline, energy-efficient optimum, and Net-Zero optimum single-family homes are utilized to determine energy use profiles for various residential community types using occupancy statistics for Phoenix. Then, REopt is used to determine the photovoltaic (PV) and battery storage system sizes necessary for the community to survive a 72-hour power outage. The baseline community requires a 544-kW PV system and 375-kW/1,564 kWh battery storage system to keep all electrical loads online during a 72-hour power outage. The energy-efficient community requires a 291-kW PV system and a 202-kW/820 kWh battery storage system while the Net-Zero community requires a 291-kW PV system and a 191-kW/880 kWh battery storage system. In this study, the economic analysis indicates that it is 43% more cost-effective to install a shared PV plus storage system than to install individual PV plus storage systems in an energy-efficient community. After analyzing the system sizes and costs required to survive various outage durations, it is found that only a 4% difference in net present cost exists between a system sized for a 24-hour outage and a 144-hour outage. In the event of a pandemic or an event that causes a community-wide lockdown, the energy-efficient community would only survive 6 hours out of a 72-hour power outage during a time where plug loads are increased by 50% due to added laptops, monitors, and other office electronics. Finally, a climate sensitivity analysis is conducted for efficient communities in Naperville, Illinois and Augusta, Maine. The analysis suggests that for a 72-hour power outage starting on the peak demand day and time of the year, the cost of resiliency is higher in climates with more heating and cooling needs as HVAC is consistently the largest load in a residential building.

Abstract:
This work investigates the implementation of a novel, NASA-developed Fluid Harmonic Absorber (FHA) technology to mitigate platform motions and structural loads that can lead to lighter platforms, increased turbine performance, and ultimately, a lower LCOE. The novel damping strategy takes advantage of existing water ballast in the VolturnUS semi-submersible platform to achieve significant performance gains with minimal additional equipment and complexity. NREL’s FOWT software FAST is modified to include the primary features of the FHA technology. A study of the University of Maine-developed VolturnUS semi-submersible FOWT augmented with FHA technology is undertaken to quantify global performance of the system. When compared to the baseline technology, numerical simulations of a redesigned platform utilizing the FHA dampers indicate a reduction of 15.8% in hull structural material. Finally, the improvements in LCOE resulting from this mass reduction are assessed to demonstrate the advantages of NASA’s FHA technology for FOWT applications.

Abstract:
Abstract The design of a 1/15th geometrically scaled wave tank model of the Azura™ commercial-scale wave energy device is presented. The objectives of the wave tank tests, conducted at the University of Maine Harlod Alfond Wind/Wave Ocean Engineering Lab (W2), included verification of the Azura’s energy capture in irregular waves, evaluation of performance in survival wave conditions, and testing of two advanced control algorithms. Due to the difficulty in properly Froude Scaling a hydraulic system, the model used a direct-drive rotary motor/generator power takeoff (PTO), with the dynamics of the hydraulic PTO included via a hardware-in-the-loop simulation. This PTO implementation led to additional design requirements being imposed on the model drivetrain. In addition to the model PTO design, the instrumentation design, structural design, and test plans are presented. The resulting model and PTO achieved a high level of controllability, and accurately emulated the dynamics of the hydraulic PTO of the full-scale Azura prototype.
