Teacher Burnout: Two Case Studies
… to characterize the burnout of two teachers at a fundamental level. One aim is to present a portrait of the burnout condition, including its basic configuration and its phenomenological effects. A second aim is to depict and discuss how these teachers are psychologically and emotionally affected …

An analysis of the grounding relation
… relation. In the third, I argue that there is a fundamental level consisting of entities which are ungrounded, and I discuss various proposals about what exists at that fundamental level. The last two chapters focus on the role that grounding can play in contemporary metaphysics. In the fourth …

Invasive Interactions
… abuse, isolation, community, and at the fundamental level, nature itself. Invasive Interactions was created to evoke a subtle awareness in the subconscious of the viewer and to emphasize our world's diverse natural landscape and its fragility.

An Investigation of Contact Electrification and Triboelectric Charging in Insulating Materials
… materials, but poorly understood on the fundamental level. Insulating materials by definition do not have free charge carriers and it is not obvious how charge can be transferred. Due to the often deleterious effects of triboelectricity, establishing a fundamental understanding is …

Service identification in TCP/IP : well-known versus random port numbers
… Internet communications. Its purpose at the most fundamental level is only to demultiplex flows of traffic. Several unintended uses of the port number evolved from associating services with a list of well-known port numbers. This thesis documents those unintended consequences in an effort to …

Incorporating equation solving into unification through stratified term rewriting
… theory with unification at a lower, more fundamental level. Certain properties of STAR are proven including termination and confluence. We also discuss the algorithmic complexity of the reduction algorithm, a vital component of STAR. We compare our system with narrowing and discuss the …

Classical logic and its rivals
… logic is incompatible with classical logic on a fundamental level, such that the two logics can be seen as rival theories of logical entailment and only one of them can succeed. I will explore the structure of these cases of logical rivalry by considering three examples: Dummett’s antirealism, …

Elemental - Connecting the User with the Planet through Architecture
… element, the Spirit. Connecting with nature on a fundamental level will enhance the inhabitants experience and create a connection with the planet through the spaces we inhabit.

Reimagining Age-In Living: An Exploration Into the Second Half of Life
… is one that can and should be elevated to the level of dwelling rather than living or simply existing. This thesis analyses the home at a fundamental level and fosters a way forward for families choosing to remain in their personal residence as long as possible.

First steps toward the construction of a channel cell for electrochemical studies under hydrothermal conditions
… conditions would allow to investigate at a fundamental level the interaction between new materials and media conditions such those found in modern power plants, industrial processes, and geochemistry. A first CFC prototype was constructed and the performance of the cell was studied using the …

An Approach for Fast Score Computation in Bayesian Network Structure Learning Over Large-Scale Distributed Data
On a fundamental level, Bayes’ theorem enables us to utilize prior knowledge to determine the probability of an event. In consequence, its suitability for probabilistic reasoning has lead to its employment in probabilistic graphical modeling and the inception of Bayesian networks. The field is …
