Divine Attachment: A Canonical Model for Discipleship and Religious Education
… this dissertation is the lack of a theological model to augment psychological models of religious attachment theory. The research sought to identify a canonical model of divine attachment which may contribute to the revitalization of personal discipleship and religious education by offering a …

Interoperable Multimodal Travel Guide System: Modeling and Implementation. A Canonical Model Approach
… not only the feasibility of the proposed canonical model approach but also its effectiveness compared to the existing approaches to information integration in light of the adaptability and reusability of the standardized conceptual models for specific domains.

Essays on uninsured income risk, lumpy investment and aggregate demand
… size of income changes. I investigate whether a canonical model of lumpy durable investment with incomplete markets can replicate this fact. I first clarify analytically the source of non-linearity in this model, and I show that its sign depends on the relative strength of the extensive and …

Evaluating transformers as memory systems in reinforcement learning
… for reinforcement learning indicated that the canonical model is not suitable, and that additional gated recurrent units and architectural modifications are necessary to stabilize these models. Several additional improvements to the canonical model have further extended its capabilities, such …

The puzzling behavior of equity returns: The need to move beyond the consumption capital asset pricing model
… in equity markets and the ability of extant models to account for their behavior. I first consider the so-called "expectations hypothesis" (EH) and find that it fails empirically even when structural change is incorporated into the analysis. I then examine the consumption Capital Asset …

Scheduling algorithms for throughput maximization in data networks
… of these network settings are subsumed under a canonical model and scheduling framework. Tools of queueing analysis are used to evaluate network throughput properties, and demonstrate throughput optimality of scheduling and routing algorithms under stochastic traffic. Techniques of graph theory …

Rapid oscillations in cataclysmic variables
… of these oscillations are reviewed, and current models discussed. To put the observations in context, a detailed review is given of the canonical model of cataclysmic variables and the variations that give rise to its various sub-classes. Observations of two systems of particular interest are …

The Intracellular Domain of the Frazzled/Dcc Receptor is a Transcription Factor Required for Commissural Axon Guidance
… are expressed on axonal growth cones. In the canonical model of axon guidance receptor signaling, ligand binding induces the formation of protein complexes on receptor cytoplasmic domains, which locally remodel the growth cone plasma membrane and underlying cytoskeleton. Many axons navigate to …

Development in the depiction of depth
… of subjects appear to work from a form of canonical model of a table which has implicit depth and is best depicted by oblique projection (Chapter 10). It is also suggested that development in the depiction of depth is linked to the increasing use of pictorial depth cues. These conclusions …

Experimental surface heat flux measurement in hypervelocity flows
… performance of the gages and to apply them to canonical model geometries to investigate heat transfer in the HET.

Transportation Costs And Economic Development
… transport costs by sector to an otherwise canonical two sector Roy model. I combine panel data on household level transport costs and income from Honduras with a structural model to quantitatively estimate the impact observed transport costs on the reallocation of labor and aggregate …

Essays on Bargaining and Markets
… the existing literature, and indispensable to models where players are allowed to exit the market amidst the game. Chapter 3: Redistributive Effects of Search Frictions van den Berg and van Vuuren (2010) recorded the empirical puzzle that search frictions have a positive impact on the wages of …

RBPjk-Independent, NICD-Dependent Signals in Rbpj-/- Hair Follicle Keratinocytes Cause a Milder Phenotype in RBPjcKO Animals
… activities of Notch receptors constitute the "canonical" Notch signaling pathway. This implies that loss of gamma-secretase (no Notch Intracellular Domain (NICD) release), Notch receptors (no NICD), or RBPjk (no activation of downstream targets) should generate similar phenotypes based on the …

Characterisation of the non-canonical zinc finger protein ZFP263 in mouse
… binding sites are not associated with the canonical KZFP co-factor but mostly co-localize with active histone marks. My findings lead me to hypothesise that ZFP263 has evolved to target active epigenetic states to unique regions that are positive regulators of transcription, in contrast to …

The role of coordinated regulation and aromatic metabolites in activating the mar/sox/rob regulon of Escherichia coli
… goal of this work is to provide an integrated model for the mar/sox/rob regulatory network. First, the role of MarA, SoxS, and Rob in cross-regulating and auto-regulating expression from the marRAB, soxRS, and rob loci is explored. Previous evidence has suggested the potential for a fully …

Dynamics on networks
… In the first part, we consider two dynamical models whose underlying graph can be represented by a single network. We first consider the Kuramoto model, a canonical model of coupled phase oscillators. We obtain two results on its partial phase-locked state, where a subset of oscillators remain …

The Formation Of Massive Stars: A 30 Mo Case Study
… with a one solar mass core.;The initial 1 Mo model was fully convective and burning deuterium in its core. As the model mass increased from 1 Mo to 8.5 Mo four critical masses were found in the accretion history. Between 1 and 3 Mo, the models are fully convective. At 3.1 Mo a radiative region …

THE UNIQUE STRUCTURE AND MECHANISM OF INO80 - AN ATP DEPENDENT REMODELER OF THE HISTONE EXCHANGER FAMILY
… is known about its substrate specificity and remodeling mechanism or how it differs in comparison to SWI/SNF or ISWI. Site-directed mapping of histone-DNA contacts showed that INO80 generally remodels mononucleosomes by moving them to the center of DNA. The length of extranucleosomal DNA was …

Thixotropic-viscoelastic rheological fingerprints in large amplitude oscillatory shear
… to characterize the behavior of constitutive models that exhibit both thixotropic and viscoelastic phenomena. We demonstrate this use of LAOS by first examining the strain controlled LAOS (LAOStrain) response of a Thixoelastic Jeffreys model. First, this canonical model is defined for …

Cellular clocks on steroids: the mechanism of circadian entrainment by glucocorticoids
… clocks is not completely understood. A plausible model has been proposed, following the classical genomic signalling pathway of its cognate nuclear hormone receptor, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The GR activates the transcription of the Period genes which encode the PER proteins, leading to …
