Thermodynamical Formalism
Thermodynamical formalism is a relatively recent area of pure mathematics owing a lot to some classical notions of thermodynamics. On this thesis we state and prove some of the main results in the area of thermodynamical formalism. The first chapter is an introduction to ergodic theory. Some of the …

Formalism in the Victorian garden.
… study attempts to consider changing attitudes to formalism in the English garden during the Victorian period. It begins with the decades dominated by Loudon and concludes with what might be termed the triumph of formalism in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. The area chosen as a case study …

Time series formalism : a systems approach
… sets. We introduce a python-based time series formalism which provides a SQL style querying interface alongside a rich selection of time series prediction algorithms. Users can forecast data or impute missing entries using a specialized prediction query which employs learning models under the …

Anticipatory systems using a probabilistic-possibilistic formalism
A methodology for the realization of the Anticipatory Paradigm in the diagnosis and control of complex systems, such as power plants, is developed. The objective is to synthesize engineering systems as analogs of certain biological systems which are capable of modifying their present states on the …

Nuclear reactor multiphysics via bond graph formalism
… fully coupled physics simulation. The bond graph formalism has recently been suggested as a potential paradigm for reactor multiphysics simulation; this work develops the tools necessary to utilize bond graphs for practical transient reactor analysis. The bond graph formalism was first introduced …

Oppenheimer-Snyder Collapse in the BSSN Formalism
… of spherical vacuum systems using the BSSN formalism. Diagnostics provide comparison of our results with theoretical predictions for the simplified case of a stationary black hole. Further work is required to introduce matter terms and move from spherical to axial symmetry.

Symbolic timing diagrams: a visual formalism for model verification
… thesis introduces a novel visual specification formalism named STD which can be used to verify models of reactive systems. The presentation has three parts: First, an introduction and motivation is given. Second, a theoretical framework needed to describe the context of the design of STD is …

Functional formalism for algebraic classical and quantum field theories
In the first part of this thesis we study the generalization of the recent algebraic approach to classical field theory by proposing a more general setting based on the manifold of smooth sections of a non-trivial fiber bundle. Central is the notion of observables/functionals over such sections, …

Formalism for the rapid evolution of primordial black holes
This thesis presents two different formalisms which can be used together to evolve a density perturbation produced during inflation forwards in time in the radiation-dominated era of the early universe. The first formalism, based on early work by Misner and Sharp, is for the evolution of a perfect …

A New Formalism for Soft Collinear Effective Theory with Applications
In this thesis a new formalism for Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) is developed and a new calculation relevant to high-precision studies of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) involving the summation of Sudakov double logarithms is presented. The new formalism of SCET possesses certain desirable …

Analysis of Hysteretic Systems: Preisach Formalism and Bouc-Wen Modeling
The inherently nonlinear phenomenon of hysteresis is notoriously difficult to model. Of notable interest are the inverse models of hysteresis which identify the parameters of a particular model to closely match experimental data. Two major models of hysteresis are the Preisach and Bouc-Wen models. …

A formalism for describing and simulating systems with interacting components.
… of the language has been to provide an intuitive formalism with a powerful descriptive space. The full syntax of the language is presented with discussion as to its philosophy. The implementation of a discrete event simulator using an ICE interface is described, with use being made of examples to …

A multireference coupled-cluster method using a single-reference formalism.
The coupled-cluster (CC) equations including single, double, triple and quadruple excitations (CCSDTQ) are qraphically derived using Feynman diagrams. These equations are programmed and an iterative reduced linear equation method is used to solve these equations. A few points on the potential …

Study and Application of the Space Curve Quantum Control Formalism
… implementation. Here we introduce an SCQC Formalism based on dynamical decoupling and reverse engineering. Space Curve Quantum Control Formalism discovers the tight connections between quantum, geometric, and classical systems. We are able to use such connections to build noise-canceling, …

Formalism and Contextualism in Moral Education: An Analysis of Two Exemplars
The dissertation aims to analyze the theories of Lawrence Kohlberg and Carol Gilligan as representatives of the formalist and the contextualist traditions in moral theory. It first examines problems that each theory leaves unresolved and explicates the apparent conflict and tension that exist …

Spectral Theory of the Atomic Dirac Operator in the No-Pair Formalism
Mit Hilfe einer unitaeren Transformation wird der Coulomb-Dirac-Operator eines Ions in einen pseudorelativistischen Operator uebergefuehrt, der zu beliebiger Ordnung n in der Potentialstaerke block-diagonal ist bezueglich der Projektionen auf den positiven bzw. negativen Spektralraum des freien …

Simulations of Biological Ion Channels by Using the Shockley -Read -Hall Formalism
Our novel method provides a bridge between the continuum picture and microscopic properties. It encompasses both steady-state and transient simulations. This method is a promising component to be integrated into the multiscale simulation framework.
