Self-assembled thin films of thiocyanate and selenocyanate bithiophenes
(2015-06-15)Presented herein is the organic synthesis and thin film (TF) assembly of six alkyl-substituted thiocyante and selenocyante bithiophene molecules: NCSe-T2-Hx, NCS-T2-Hx, NCS-Hx-T2-Hx, NCSe- Hx-T2-Hx, NCS-Hx-T2-Hx-SCN and ... -
Self-assembly of dithiol monolayers on Au(III)
(2001)This thesis compares the self-assembly of octanethiol, a representative n-alkanethiol, with dithiothreitol (DTT) on Au (lll). Octanethiol is on eight carbon n-alkanethiol while DTT is a four carbon Q ,(i) dithiol ... -
Self-concept integration and its relationship with resilience and well-being
(2018)The overall purpose of the study was to evaluate if three forms of self-concept integration (i.e., authenticity, consistency, and valence/evaluative integration) relate to resilience and well-being. Additionally, the study ... -
Self-consistent driven Bloch oscillations in excitonic Wannier-Stark ladder
(2001)In this thesis, we present a theoretical model of Self-consistent driven Bloch oscillations (SCD BO) of different types of charge carriers in biased semiconductor superlattices photoexcited via ultra-short near-bandgap ... -

Self-silencing, depressed mood, and anger expression and the meanings behind self-silencing within intimate relationships
(2005)The present study investigates the silencing the self theory (STS, Jack, 1991) which proposes that more women than men are depressed (Benazzi, 2000) because of their greater tendency to self-silence in relationships to ... -
Self-tuned neuro-fuzzy controller based induction motor drive / by Zhi Rui Huang.
(2007)Among various ac motors, induction motor (IM) occupies almost 90% of the industrial drives due to its simple, robust construction and generally satisfactory efficiency as compared to dc motor. However, the control of IM ... -
Semantic similarity between words and sentences using lexical database and word embeddings
(2018)Calculating the semantic similarity between sentences is a long-standing problem in the area of natural language processing. The semantic analysis field has a crucial role to play in the research related to the text ... -
Semantic similarity measurement of construction projects using WBS-based similarity metrics
(2019)Lessons learned and the knowledge gained from previous projects could save a considerable amount of time and budget in planning and construction of future projects. In the process of knowledge and experiment reuse, finding ... -
Semantic web system for differential diagnosis recommendations
(2012)There is a growing realization that healthcare is a knowledge-intensive field. The ability to capture and leverage semantics via inference or query processing is crucial for supporting the various required processes in ... -
