Environmental constraints on human memory
… of the animal. Similarly, in humans there are environmental constraints that influence memory performance. As such, the structure of the environment may also constrain patterns of memory performance. In this study I investigate the possibility that there might be a parallel between animal …

Simulating airline operational responses to environmental constraints
… to policy measures that aim to reduce the environmental impact of aviation. Such airline operational responses to policy measures are not considered by existing integrated aviation-environment modelling tools. By not modelling these effects the capability of the air transport system to …

Quantitative analysis of alternative transportation under environmental constraints
This thesis focuses on the transportation sector and its role in emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and conventional pollutant emissions. Specifically, it analyzes the potential for hydrogen based transportation, introducing this technological option within a computable general equilibrium (CGE) …

Synthesizing motion sequences from sample motions to satisfy environmental constraints
… realistic human motion sequences satisfying environmental constraints can be created by motion capture, which is a reliable way to reproduce human motions. However, motion capture data is difficult to modify in order to obtain variant motion sequences for multiple tasks. In this thesis, a …

Police Organizational Performance In The State Of Florida:confirmatory Analysis Of The Relationship Of The Environment And Design Structure to Performance
… the relationships among three constructs: environmental constraints, the design structures of police organizations, and organizational performance indicators. The modeling is deeply rooted in contingency theory, and the influence of isomorphism and institutional theory on the covariance …

The Use of a Stress and Coping Model to Understand Women's Experiences with Abortion
… coping strategies; resources; and personal and environmental constraints. The results give the women's individual experiences as well as the themes that were consistent for the participants. The women all appraised the situation of an unplanned pregnancy as stressful. All of the participants …

Development of a Photonic Link for Enhancements in Quantum Applications
… implementation remains challenging due to environmental constraints. To address these concerns, this work explores the use of a photonic link to alleviate the thermal load associated with traditional cryogenic qubit control methods. The development and testing of two separate photonic links …

Quantifying the Expansion of an Invasive Plant Species, Dog-strangling Vine (Vincetoxicum rossicum), in Environmental and Geographic Space Over the Past 130 Years
… suitable environments. SDMs also assume that environmental constraints are the most important factors determining a species' distribution. However, these assumptions are not commonly assessed, and when violated can have consequences for model reliability. I investigated SDM performance and …

Ecosystem Orchestration for Firm Growth: A Longitudinal Case Study
… one-way analogy, notably actor heterogeneity and environmental constraints, are considered and used to motivate the theory development. An embedded longitudinal case study of JD Group, China’s largest online retailer and its biggest overall retailer, is conducted to verify and elaborate on this …

POLYMER ORGANIC SEMICONDUCTORS AND THEIR DEVICES
… performance and stability towards various environmental constraints was studied. Excellent performance thermal and ambient stability for this type of semiconductors was demonstrated. Degradation was only observed after 10 hours of light exposure in accelerated thermal stress. Lastly, to …
