An Investigation of Change to Key Provisions in the AIA A201 and its Impact on Perceptions of the Value-added Benefit of the Design Professional during Construction
The general conditions of contract play a very important role in the dynamics of the construction phase. The general conditions of contract outline the roles, rights, and obligations of the contracting parties during the construction phase of a project. The American Institute of Architects General …

A comparison of kernel equating and item response theory true score equating
… (TIRT) and kernel equating (KE) in different conditions. The relative accuracy of three methods (Stocking-Lord transformation based TIRT (SL TIRT), kernel chain equipercentile equating (KE CE) and kernel post-stratification equating (KE PSE)) are examined in specific and general conditions. …

Simultaneous White Noise Models and Optimal Recovery of Functional Data
… on [0,1] satisfying prescribed regularity conditions. The data consist of discrete samplings of these realizations in i.i.d. Gaussian noise and the goal is estimation of the underlying trajectories. Further, we want our estimates to enjoy expected L2 errors, conditioned on the realized …

Topics in theory of superconductivity
… We find that in the clean limit, contrary to the general belief, below a certain crossover temperature, the temperature dependence of the penetration depth is quadratic and not linear. The interplay between nonlocal effects on one hand and impurities, surface quality of the sample and crystal axes …

Dropout and Resilient Students: A Focus on a Chicago Urban High School
… persist through graduation, despite the same general conditions. Parents and teachers' perceptions are also examined to get their views on dropping out and persistence and their roles as parents and teachers. What follows is an opportunity to use a wealth of information from the interviews and …

Combining Satisfiability Procedures for Automated Deduction and Constraint -Based Reasoning
… reasoners. Its main goal is to establish general, possibly minimal, sets of requirements for the combination of constraint domains and reasoners. It mostly concentrates on the combination of satisfiability procedures, building on previous work by G. Nelson and D. Oppen, and by Ch. …

Public place making in Enkanini : a socio-spatial methodology for intervening on the informal
… these projects impose new social and spatial conditions that are often not liberating to the communities that they serve. As an alternative, this thesis proposes a methodology that contrasts with this approach, a process that aims at understanding the socio-spatial conditions of a particular …

On multigroup transport theory with a degenerate transfer kernel
… eigensolutions are obtained in terms of generalized functions. The adjoint operator is also considered for the purpose of demonstrating the full-range orthogonality relations. In particular, it is proven that the direct and adjoint eigenvalue spectra are identical. The full-range …

The Syntax and Typology of Bantu Relative Clauses
… strategies languages employ to avoid violating general conditions on chain formation. The specific system argued for includes a derivational system of syntax in which only unvalued features are probes, probes are unrestricted with regard to the direction of probing, and the locality of syntactic …

Optimal Simultaneous Confidence Bounds in Regression
… intercept, over bounded regions, is considered. Conditions are derived which imply that the Scheffe-type bound beats the constant width bound for the case of one-sided or two-sided bounding, in the sense of having smaller average width with respect to Lebesgue measure over the region, when …

On the Tightness of the Balanced Truncation Error Bound with an Application to Arrowhead Systems
… is known to hold with equality under certain conditions, such as when the full-order system is state-space symmetric. In this work, we derive more general conditions in which the balanced truncation error bound holds with equality. We show that this holds for single-input, single-output …

Enantioselective synthesis and reactivity of bicyclobutanes: strained molecular platforms for 4-, 5-, and 6-membered ring synthesis and rhodium(II)-catalyzed reactions of diazoesters with organozinc reagents
… In Chapter 2, I will discuss the development of general conditions for the enantioselective intramolecular cyclopropanation or bicyclobutanation of α-diazoesters. Additionally, this chemistry has been coupled with a Cu(I)-catalyzed homoconjugate addition of Grignard reagents to bicyclobutanes in …

Capsizing of ships : static and dynamic analysis of wind effect and cost implications

The Heavy Hand of Government: an Economic Study of Obesity
… tax, and body weight. Namely, I show that under general conditions the Engel curve for the optimal weight is an inverted U-shaped function and the effect of the marginal income tax upon weight is non-linear. The empirical investigation uses two datasets: a panel dataset with 459 state-level …

Pattern matching encryption, strategic equivalence of range voting and approval voting, and statistical robustness of voting rules
… 1. Pattern matching encryption: We present new, general definitions for queryable encryption schemes - encryption schemes that allow evaluation of private queries on encrypted data without performing full decryption. We construct an efficient queryable encryption scheme supporting pattern …
