Downstream bioprocessing is continuously faced with challenges requiring the development of more efficient and robust bioseparation technologies. Multimodal chromatography has the potential to provide improved selectivity ...

The unrelenting demand for affinity reagents in areas such as proteomics, medical diagnostics, and therapeutic treatment has necessitated their further study and development. In recent years, aptamers—short, single-stranded ...

This research uses extrapolation theory to understand how past actions effect the present, and through this lens how decisions made now will effect the future. This paper investigates how this theory informed design decisions ...

The dependency of modern-day human life on synthetic polymers is becoming increasingly evident. At present, polymers are used in a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from commodity polymers in everyday plastics, to ...

Power electronics converters are essential in both wind/solar grid connection as well as energy storage applications. Specifically, isolated DC-DC converters can provide functions like galvanic isolation, voltage level ...

Ignition delay times for conventional and alternative jet and diesel fuels of interest to the United States Department of Defense were measured in a constant volume spray combustion chamber and a shock tube in homogenous ...

A novel hybrid 3D radar imaging technique is presented that jointly estimates both target shape and motion using range, range-rate, and phase. This work expands on research done by the author as an intern at MIT Lincoln ...
