Prizefighting in mid-Victorian Britain.
… records. Exploring how broader social changes in mid-Victorian Britain, such as industrialisation, urbanisation, and migration, influenced the reception and perception of prizefighting while addressing key themes such as its relationship with class, social control, patronage, and masculine, local, …

Stratigraphy of the mid-Carboniferous boundary
… the stratigraphy of the newly defined mid-Carboniferous boundary. The selection of the mid-Carboniferous stratotype section should reconcile problems between the different mid-Carboniferous biostratigraphies developed throughout the world and provide a standard against which other …

MID-VICTORIAN PLYMOUTH: A SOCIAL GEOGRAPHY
… population density was higher than that of mid-Victorian London and Liverpool, and the consequences for local public health and on the morphology of the urban area were substantial. Deprivation and poverty occurred not only in the older, cramped parts of Plymouth but also i n newly-built …

Evapotranspiration in Mid-South Rice Production
<p>Rice provides much needed sustenance to a large portion of the global population, particularly in the developing world. With stress placed on food production systems under the reality of climate change and an increasing global population, rice production systems require solutions to a number of …

Mid infrared spectroscopic imaging and tomography
… provides morphological (two dimensional) and mid-infrared spectral (one dimensional) information for a specimen under observation. In this dissertation, we develop a new instrument that extends the capabilities of FT-IR imaging to provide three dimensional morphological information along with …

The geochemistry of selected mid-ocean ridge basalts from the Southern mid-Atlantic ridge (40°- 55°S)
… recovered from this section of the southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge (SMAR), and significantly expanded the global suite of samples from slow-spreading ridges.

The Experiences of Mid-Career Elementary Teachers
… indicate a significant number of teachers in mid career. Their cares, concerns, and interests dramatically influence educational activity in the province. The experiences of these educators lie within a context of major restructuring of the entire provincial school system and substantive …

Mantle Heterogeneity Through Mid-Ocean Ridge Basalts
… Earth's upper mantle is often examined through mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB), which contest the prevalent assumption of a well-mixed convecting mantle. This dissertation delves into studying mantle heterogeneity from a local to regional scale. Initially, petrological models were utilized to …

Pedestrian safety at urban mid-block crossings
The mid-block crossing is a common behaviour among people walking in urban areas. Where demand for crossing is high, it can result in increased crash risk. Most of these crashes are likely to result in pedestrian severe injuries or fatalities, especially when crash impact speeds are high. Despite …

Theoretical studies of the mid-latitude ionosphere
Following a brief description of the atmosphere and ionosphere in Chapter I we describe how the equations of continuity and momentum for 0+, H+, He+, 0++ are derived from the formulations of St-Maurice and Schunk(1977) and Quegan et al.(1981) in Chapter II. In Chapter III we investigate the nature …

Parametric amplification of mid-infrared picosecond radiation
High power, tunable, mid-infrared sources are important in many fields, like spectroscopy and medical applications. This thesis presents a technique for realising a high power tuneable mid-infrared picosecond source, by combining the radiation from a free electron laser with a powerful Nd:YAG pump …

Mesoscale Ensemble Prediction of Mid-Latitude Cyclones
… and lateral boundary uncertainties present in mid-latitude cyclone prediction. The use of separate ensemble subsets permitted direct comparison of the contributions from different uncertainty sources. Through the examination of the ensemble prediction results for cyclone central pressure, …

Seismic Risk Analysis for Mid-America Communities
… how to extend the results from the cases to Mid-America communities. Accordingly, the most devastating earthquake for communities in the small and the large source zones (represented by Sikeston and Carbondale, respectively) would be an M8 earthquake along the New Madrid seismic fault, and in …

A faster FFT in the Mid-West
FFT implementations today generally fall into two categories: Library generators (such as FFTW and Spiral) and specialized FFTs (such as prime95). Specialized FFTs have the obvious limitation of being specialized. However they are hand-tuned and generally offer superior performance. Library …
