Is there a difference between female and male hourly wages for engineering students in a mandatory co-op program?2. Are the results simply because of region? i.e. is this phenomenon relegated only to Cincinnati or to the State?3. Is there still a difference when examining profession, major, or co-op term number?4. If we control for Location, Citizenship, Ethnicity, GPA and credits earned are we still able to predict a significant variance in hourly wage for Females and Males

The laser based phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA) system andparticle image velocimetry (PIV) were used to explore solid-particle flow and theircharacteristics.The phase Doppler method is based upon the principles of light scattering interferometry.Measurements are made at a small, non-intrusive optical probe volume defined by theintersection of two laser beams. The intersection of the two beams creates a fringe patternwithin the probe volume. As a particle passes through the probe volume, it scatters light fromthe beams and projects the fringe pattern.

The “Thermochemical” pathway toprocess abundant cellulosic biomass affords an opportunity to develop atom economicalprocesses. Pyrolysis is one option being pursued. This two-step approach requires furtherupgrading to transportation fuels. Another option is thermal depolymerization that produces one-carbon product that can be reengineered to a variety of transportation biofuels such as ethanol,butanol, gasoline, diesel and jet fuel. Approaches to achieve the next-generation synthesis ofthese desirable biofuels will be discussed.
