Controlling Viscous Fingering
Viscous fingering occurs when one fluid displaces another fluid of a greater viscosity in a porous medium or a Hele-Shaw cell. Linear stability analysis is used to predict methods of suppressing instability. Then, experiments in which nonlinear growth dominates pattern formation are analysed to …

Understanding Controlling Shareholder Regimes
… United States and the United Kingdom, although "controlling shareholder regimes" constitute the vast majority of the world's economy. Since there have been few systematic studies concerning controlling shareholder regimes (in particular, controlling shareholder regimes in developing countries), …

Controlling polymer network topology
Chapter 1: Introduction to Polymer Network Topology on a (Macro)Molecular Level Polymer network topology, comprising the ways in which strands and junctions are connected in polymer networks, plays a critical role in dictating many material properties. Here we discuss classical challenges in the …

Controlling open quantum systems
… resonance techniques) of new methods for controlling open quantum systems. First, methods that improve coherent control through the use of both strong control fields and detailed knowledge of the system's Hamiltonian are demonstrated. With the aid of numerical search methods, pulsed …

Controlling Neural Language Generation
Large-scale neural language models have made impressive strides in natural language generation. However, typical models operate in a left-to-right, unconstrained fashion with limited control over what is generated. This thesis explores flexible sequence models and weakly supervised methods to …

Controlling refinery risk management
… crude oil refiner in designing, implementing and controlling a pro-active risk management program. Since the introduction of volatility into the oil business in the mid-1970s, pro-active risk management the has become a popular tool for petroleum industry management to effectively reduce the …

Controlling Behavior with Shared Knowledge
Controlling agent behavior is a fundamental challenge across diverse domains within artificial intelligence and robotics. The central idea of this dissertation is that shared knowledge can be used as a powerful tool to control AI agents’ behavior. This dissertation explores the utilization of …

Exceptional tunings: controlling urban events
This thesis is about space, law and control: how their relationship unfolds in the contemporary city, and how normative orderings emerge out of the urban mess, with particular attention to how this occurs in the extraordinary spatio-temporal context of mega events. The work is premised on the …

Controlling the Walrasian tatonnement process
In this thesis I examine a discrete-time Walrasian tatonnement process. The criterion for stability is examined in a two good tatonnement process. It is shown that the stability of the system depends upon the speed of adjustment and holdings of endowments as well as preferences. It is then shown …

Techniques for Controlling Structural Vibrations
We tackle the problem of suppressing high-amplitude vibrations of cantilever beams when subjected to either primary external or principal parametric resonances. Guided by results of previous investigations into the nonlinear dynamics of single- and multi-degree-of-freedom structures, we design …

Controlling Growth in Echinacea Hybrids
New hybrid Echinacea cultivars, based on crosses of Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench with several other Echinacea species, have generated interest and excitement in the marketplace due to novel flower colors and forms. However, these cultivars vary significantly in their growth habits and …

Controlling Contact Transitions for Dynamic Robots
… achieving more dynamic robots lies within controlling contact interactions with their environment. Legged robots undergoing impacts experience near-instantaneous changes in their velocities, making accurate state estimation difficult and resulting in controller sensitivity to even small …
