Ribbon Complex
This thesis is a series of experiments performed on how ribbon-like bands of material can be folded to generate special volumes that can accommodate the functional aspects of a building program.

Suspended complex
In simple terms, you could say that building order is the unity that arises in a building when the parts taken together determine the whole and, conversely, when the separate parts derive from the whole in an equally logical way. The unity resulting from design that consistently employs this …

Protein immobilization using complex coacervates and complex coacervate thin films
… and can enhance the stability of enzymes. Complex coacervates are highly effective at encapsulating and stabilizing enzymes. This thesis demonstrates the use of complex coacervate thin films for the immobilization of enzymes and systematically probes methods to enhance the performance of …

Assimilating complex information
… reduced the element interactivity of complex material by presenting the material as isolated elements of information that could be processed serially, rather than simultaneously, in working memory. In the second phase of instruction, all the information for understanding was presented. …

Complex exponential smoothing
… non-seasonal time series. Although we call it "Complex Exponential Smoothing" (CES), due to the use of complex-valued functions, its usage simplifies the forecasting procedure. In this thesis we first discuss the main properties of CES and propose an underlying statistical model. We then extend …

Nesting complex systems
… discusses an artistic method of engaging with complex systems. The engagements take the form of inserting a certain something (an object, a task, a conversational prompt, myself) into a complex system with well-defined and elaborate technical processes serving specific and declared goals. The …

Sequencing complex polysaccharides
Glycosaminoglycans are complex polysaccharides that exist at the cell/extracellular matrix interface. As such, these information-dense molecules are key regulators of extracellular signals. However, to date, there has been a lack of effective biochemical and analytical tools for the analysis of …

Irreducible symplectic complex spaces
… locally topologically trivial, morphisms of complex manifolds. Generalizing Griffiths's theory, we interpret the differential of such period mappings as the composition of the Kodaira-Spencer map and a map derived from the sheaf cohomological cup product and the contraction of vector fields …

Complex regimes of synchronization
… of an interaction. In this work we investigate complex regimes of synchronization phenomena by means of theoretical analysis, numerical modeling, as well as practical analysis of experimental data. As a subject of our investigation we consider chimera state, where due to spontaneous …

Complex hyperbolic triangle groups
… discreteness and non-discreteness results about complex hyperbolic triangle groups and discover two new lattices. These results use geometric (explicit construction of a fundamental domain), group theoretic and arithmetic methods.

Symplectic and complex foliations
"Symplectic (not necessarily Riemannian) foliations have a transversely symplectic structure for which many standard results of symplectic geometry have their transverse analogues: the dual bundle to the transverse bundle of a foliation is a manifold with a canonical symplectic foliation, the …

Pleiotropy in complex traits
… studies (GWAS) have uncovered thousands of complex trait loci, many of which are associated with multiple phenotypes. The dedicated study of these pleiotropic effects is becoming increasingly common due to the availability of sample collections with high-dimensional phenotype data, such as …

Education for All? Complex solutions to complex problems in the Nigerian education sector
… and implementation in the education sector; a complex adaptive systems approach. Structured in two parts, the research first makes the case for viewing the education sector as a complex system, and then moves out of the theoretical domain into development practice (a modelling exercise). Two of …

Three Experiments on Complex Fluids
The behaviour of complex fluids is fundamentally interesting and important in many applications. This thesis reports on three experiments on the thermal and rheological behaviour of complex fluids. The first is a study of the rheological properties of and heat transport in a saline solution of …

Mining Complex High-Order Datasets
… structure for storage and analysis of complex datasets is a vital but often overlooked decision in the design of data mining and machine learning experiments. Most present techniques impose a matrix structure on the dataset, with rows representing observations and columns representing …

Non-equilibrium polymeric complex fluids
Complex fluids are commercially- and industrially-important materials which exhibit ordering on scales much larger than atomic. Their usage is typically in non-equilibrium conditions, however traditional methods for measuring rheology are not appropriate for measuring samples with gradients …
