Doubling in a practice of animation
… subject of the research deals with strategies of doubling as a means to explore the relation between what technology promises and the fantasy of the viewer/user. The visual material that constitutes my research attempts to raise, in various interrelated ways, a set of core questions regarding the …

Comparative Study of Body Doubling in Extended Reality
Body doubling is a mechanism that lets individuals work alongside someone on a monotonous task that they might not be able to focus on when they work alone. The person they work alongside is called a body double. It could be considered similar to co-working, but it gives individuals the freedom to …

Nonlinear optics for frequency-doubling in nanosatellite laser communication
… the utility of nonlinear optics for frequency-doubling to enable free space optical (FSO) communication links to take advantage of the ability to switch between two wavelengths using one transmit module. Our analysis shows that incorporating frequency-doubling with nonlinear optics into …

Doubling on Euphonium and Tuba: A Guide for Euphonium Players
… into four large sections: euphonium to BBb tuba doubling, euphonium to CC tuba doubling, euphonium to Eb tuba doubling, and euphonium to F tuba doubling. The author has included exercises derived from personal experience.;Interviews were also conducted with accomplished pedagogues in the United …

Whole genome doubling confers unique genetic vulnerabilities on tumor cells
Whole genome doubling (WGD) generates genetically unstable tetraploid cells that fuel tumorigenesis. Cells that undergo WGD must acquire adaptive characteristics to accommodate their tetraploid state, and these adaptations may confer unique vulnerabilities that can be exploited therapeutically. We …

Doubling of block copolymer line patterns by electron-beam-fabricated templates
The doubling of block copolymer (BCP) line patterns by electron-beam-fabricated template patterns is presented. Difficulties in achieving low defect self-assembly within the narrow line patterns are discussed. To address these issues, experimental approaches were investigated of narrowing the …

MODERN MUSIC AND VERSATILITY: POST WWII WORKS FOR OBOE & ENGLISH HORN DOUBLING
… on both oboe and English horn, but the skill of doubling is often overlooked at the collegiate level. Also, due to the vast quantity and familiarity of “standard” pieces, music of our time is sometimes neglected. The goal of my dissertation was to address each of these two issues by performing …

Using spontaneous haploid genome doubling to access favorable alleles in exotic maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm
… germplasm. The use of spontaneous haploid genome doubling (SHGD) can improve DH production, including in exotic germplasm. In this study, 663 maize inbred lines were derived from exotic germplasm, BS39, by DH and single-seed descent (SSD) breeding methods. Genotype-by-Sequencing (GBS) and …

Ourself Behind Ourself, Concealed: The Thematic Importance Of Doubling In Nineteenth And Early Twentieth-Century American Gothic Literature
… ways in which textual, authorial, and character doubling by specific male and female authors of the American Gothic tradition provide an outlet for the reflection of nineteenth and early twentieth-century anxieties, paying special attention to those anxieties brought about by expectations of …

Determining how variations in cell and nuclear size contribute to mitosis and tumorigenicity in cancer cells that undergo whole genome doubling
Whole genome doubling (WGD) is a frequent event in human tumors associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. The genetic redundancy afforded by WGD is thought to attenuate the deleterious effects of gene mutations and chromosome missegregation, thereby enabling the propagation of genomic and …

The Mirrored Body: Doubling and Replacement of the Feminine and androgynous Body In Hadia Said'S <em>Artist</em> and Haruki Murakami'S <em>Sputnik Sweetheart</em>
<p>This thesis aims to explore the presentation of the body and its connection to the consciousness created within a multitude of existences. This presentation addresses the layers in which the female body is constructed in the works of Haruki Murakami, Moto Hagio, and Hadia Said, all of which deal …

Speling "Successful" Sucesfuly: Statistical Learning in Spelling
Many spelling errors in English are doubling errors, as when people are stumped by the double ‹l› in ‹trellis›. In Study 1, we tabulated statistical patterns with regards to doubling in English. In Study 2, we collected behavioral data to see if people were sensitive to these statistical …

Transmutation
… is about change itself. I am inspired by the doubling and layering effects that came out of Surrealist Photography. Scale, fracture, and doubling are intentional components of my process. I combine those methods to create complex works of art, focusing on the untamable light that I hope to …

THE EFFECT OF RELATIVE ELECTRODE SIZE ON THE PERFORMANCE OF A SUPERCAPACITIVE MICROBIAL FUEL CELL DESIGN
… little effect on the devices performance. By doubling the cathode area, peak power output was improved by roughly 120% for a 10 ms pulse discharge. Doubling the cathode area also had a positive effect on the internal resistance of the cell, lowering the equivalent series resistance by …

Extensions of the theory of tent spaces and applications to boundary value problems
… to various types of metric measure spaces. For doubling spaces we show that the usual 'global' theory remains valid, and for 'non-uniformly locally doubling' spaces (including R^n with the Gaussian measure) we establish a satisfactory local theory. In the doubling context we show that …
