Understanding equitable access to interpretive services in healthcare in Kansas
(Wichita State University, 2023-04-14)Introduction: There is an increasing need in Kansas for qualified healthcare interpreters as the demographics continue to become more diverse. Patients with limited English proficiency are considered a vulnerable population. ... -
Understanding genetic testing in primary care
(Wichita State University, 2016-04-29)As genetic tests are expanding, primary care providers have an increasing need to integrate tests into their practice. The purpose of this project is to offer an evidence-based clinical review, regarding types of genetic ... -
Understanding physicians' care practices for young mothers in Kansas
(Wichita State University. Graduate School, 2014-04-25)As health care consumers, adolescent and young mothers have distinct needs when it comes to transitioning between health care settings (i.e., pediatric care, obstetric care). Young mothers may be at risk for having unmet ... -
Understanding place in the realm of community health: Wichita's Northeast Community
(Wichita State University, 2016-04-29)Place is an important factor in shaping the health of a population. To identify the potential reasons for health disparities in a particular population, one must recognize the web of social and historical relationships in ... -
Understanding spatial constraints for autonomous robotic assembly with neural logic learning
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)Spatial constraints of objects are one of the key elements that are required in industrial assembly. Robots deployed in conventional assembly lines are based on schema by referring to computer-aided design (CAD) software. ... -
Understanding the bias in Deep Learning based gender classification systems
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)Automated gender classification has important applications in many domains such as demographic research, law enforcement, online advertisements, as well as human computer interface. Research search questioned the fairness ... -
Understanding the physics of droplet electrocoalescence in a microfluidic device
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)This work details a parametric study for merging millimeter sized oil droplets, using an electric field, to simulate a mesoscale version of the microfluidic device. This was done to see if the physics of droplet merging ... -
Understanding the prevalence of gestational diabetes in urban and rural communities in Kansas
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)INTRODUCTION: Gestational diabetes is one of the most common medical conditions women encounter during pregnancy and is the leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality, perinatal and neonatal morbidity, and long-term ... -
Unexpected radial limit
(Wichita State University, 2017-04-28)Consider a bounded solution ƒ of the prescribed mean curvature equation over a bounded domain Ω ⊂ R² which has a corner at which has a corner at (0, 0) of size 2α and assume the mean curvature of the graph of ƒ is bounded. ... -
A unified approach for continuous-time compensator design via a graphical user interface (GUI)
(Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2007-04-27)In the field of control theory, compensators are used when a control design does not meet the intended design specifications. Some examples of these design specifications could be percent overshoot (P.O.), settling time ... -
A unified approach to stabilize an arbitrary order discrete or continuous time transfer function with time delay using a pi controller
(Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2007-04-27)The object in this paper is to find the stability regions of an arbitrary order discrete or continuous time transfer function with time delay. The stability bounds of the proportional integral (PI) controller are found ... -
