Social Comparison of Body Image in Middle-Aged Women: Implications for Body Image Theory
Body image dissatisfaction persists into middle age for women. Despite this, most research addressing this area has focused on younger adult women. Therefore, this study sought to explore middle-aged women’s body image experience in more depth. Specifically, aspects of the Tripartite Influence …

Near-field scanning study for radio frequency interference estimation
… and a decomposition method based on reciprocity theory can also be used together to estimate the coupling from the noise source to the victim antennas. This proposed method provides convenience to estimate RFI issues in the early design stage and saves the time of RFI simulation and measurements. …

Role of fluctuations and defects in select condensed matter problems
… smooth perturbations lead to deviations from the image theory results extensively used to interpret the experimentally observed single molecule lifetime changes.

Modal based BGA modeling in high-speed package
… and efficiently capture the proximity effect. Image theory is also applied in the proposed approach to reduce the computational domain from 3D structure to 2D. The matrix reduction approach is applied to obtain the physical loop inductance. The lumped capacitance is obtained. A π topology …

Reconnecting urban communities : Northeastern University Housing Project, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A.
… is one of the case studies in Kevin Lynch's image theory. The image map he provided is very crucial for my urban design. The thesis proposes a city subcenter based on the image map of the South End. Moreover, the site is located in one of the low income residential districts in Boston. Social …

Modeling multi-layer via structure using PEEC method
… signal interconnects. In addition, we use the image theory to handle inhomogeneous media. Further, a new technique is given to reduce computational resources for via-to-plane structures based on properties of the matrix coefficient. The extracted capacitance is also incorporated into the …

Expanding Spaces and Porous Borders in the Artworking of Bracha L. Ettinger
… and between the various levels of text and image, theory and art, in a constant shift between modes of production. Ettinger’s ethical aesthetics intends art as a latent space of healing, a borderspace of connections which a repositive, active and aware. Ettinger incorporates text, …

Lightning Electromagnetic Pulse Functions and Protecting the Artemis Spacecraft
… substitution, integration by parts, and image theory to account for reflections. We also introduce a new polynomial substitution method as a possible alternative to Euler substitution. Finally, we introduce two new lightning models: the first resembles the Modified Transmission Line with …

Method of Moments Analysis of an Aperture in a Thick Ground Plane
… equivalent surface currents. Whenever possible, image theory is used to simplify the equations. These equations are numerically solved using the method of moments. The surfaces are approximated by planar triangular patches. RWG functions are used for expansion functions. An approximate Galerkin …

Rethinking word / image relationships in contemporary art
This thesis explores the interaction of word and image through an intellectual framework which engages with artistic practice. By providing an overviev of interarts debates, it is suggested that notions such as the 'sister arts' have tended historically to privilege word over image. This …

A photon counting pixel detector for x-ray imaging
… Chapter 2 presents the basic semiconductor theory required to understand the operation of these detectors, and a section on image theory introduces the fundamental parameters which are necessary to define the quality of an imaging device. Chapter 3 presents measurements made by the author on …

The ‘hybrid image practitioner’ in Hong Kong; a critical review of technological developments and their impact on simultaneous creation of still and moving images
The simultaneous gathering of still and moving images by the same professional (the hybrid image practitioner) is defined as a newly emerging role that has subsumed the skillsets and knowledge of the still and moving image practitioners to produce both from a new and unique viewpoint. This process …

Cultural predictions of entrepreneurial orientation and the moderating role of entrepreneurial competencies on graduate entrepreneurial intentions: A cross-sectional survey of East Africa
… EO and entrepreneurial intention? Using the theory of planned behavior (TPB), upper echelons theory and image theory, this study seeks to address these questions based on a pragmatic paradigm and thus a mixed methods approach in two phases. Phase one of the study was qualitative consisting of …

The Other Middle-earth: Intertextuality and Iconography in Sergei Iukhimov’s Illustrations for The Lord of the Rings
… truth: the relationship between text and image can be problematic and the reading of an illustration depends largely on the culturally acquired “discursive precedents” which an individual viewer brings to the act of looking. This situation may be further complicated when account is taken …

Investigating the Role of Appearance-Based Factors in Predicting Sunbathing and Tanning Salon Use
… often based on theories of health behavior, but theory from the body image field can be useful in understanding motives to UV expose as well. The current study examines models that prospectively predict sunbathing and indoor tanning behaviors using constructs and interrelationships derived from …

Μελέτη προτύπων ιατρικής φυσικής μέσω της επίλυσης προβλημάτων μαθηματικής νευροφυσιολογίας
Η Ηλεκτροεγκεφαλογραφία (ΗΕΓ) και η Μαγνητοεγκεφαλογραφία (ΜΕΓ) αποτελούν δύο από τις πλέον ευρέως χρησιμοποιούμενες μη επεμβατικές μεθόδους μελέτης της λειτουργίας του ανθρώπινου εγκεφάλου, κατά τις οποίες καταγράφονται εξωτερικά του κρανίου, το ηλεκτρικό και το μαγνητικό πεδίο, που οφείλονται στη …
