Developing a non-destructive evaluation technique using resonance ultrasound spectroscopy for fission based target
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)*The purpose of this thesis is to study Resonance Ultrasound Spectroscopy(RUS) and it's potential to evaluate the change in interfacial thermal resistance due to irradiation. Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy is conventionally ... -
The effect of uncertainty in "field of the day" treatment regimes in proton therapy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)Purpose: A common practice in proton therapy is to plan a treatment using multiple fields, but only deliver a subset of those fields for each fraction. This practice could lead to increased uncertainty in the treatment. ... -
Validation of radiation treatment planning with a pseudo-CT derived from MR images
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Historically CT has been the necessary for radiation therapy dose calculation due to its inherent density information. However there is increased ...
