Statistical models for the relations between variables encompass assumptions about the underlying mechanism that generated the relations in the observed data. This dissertation introduces item response mechanics as the study of data-generating mechanisms underlying an item response, and their implementation in psychometric process-measurement models.

Atom-mirror cooling and entanglement using cavity Electromagnetically Induced Transparency
We investigate a hybrid optomechanical system comprised of a mechanical oscillator and an atomic 3-level ensemble within an optical cavity. We show that a suitably tailored cavity field response via Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) in the ...

Nanorheology of viscoelastic shells: Applications to viral capsids
We study the microrheology of nanoparticle shells [Dinsmore et al. Science 298, 1006 (2002)] and viral capsids [Ivanovska et al. PNAS 101, 7600 (2004)] by computing the mechanical response function and thermal fluctuation spectrum of a viscoelastic ...

Mechanical Response of Hot-Mixed Epoxy Asphalt Concrete Steel Deck Pavement Under Thermal and Load
In recent years, fatigue cracking in orthotropic steel bridge deck pavements has become a significant concern, so the investigation of the mechanical response of the pavement layer has become a central focus in pavement structure design.

Thermal-mechanical response to simple shear extension [PDF]
The mechanism of extension in the continental crust is apparently much more complex than that acting in the oceanic lithosphere. Recently, Wernicke has proposed that a significant fraction of extension in the continental lithosphere may occur by a simple
