The works of Cy Twombly : non-linear language and non-linear consciousness
… theory in interpreting Twombly's oeuvre within a linear, developmental history of art. One central aim is to identify the context therefore from which such aesthetic and extra-aesthetic concerns arose. This analysis will require examining Black Mountain College's synchronic and isomorphic …

Non-linear conduction in superconductors
Part I of this dissertation is concerned with the problem of the magnetic field dependence of the surface impedance of superconductors, with particular reference to tin. In chapter 1 the predictions of the simple theory for the behaviour of the surface impedance for different frequencies and fieid …

Non-linear analysis of infilled frames.
… may be obtained from the development of a non-linear finite element analysis. The finite element method is reviewed and new elements for representing beams, interfaces and loading are developed. Failure criteria for concrete under multiaxial stress and also failure criteria for masonry …

Non-linear optimized cash flow model
… loading and activities shifting are done in a linear, independent, and sequential method. This linear front-end loading and activity shifting formulation will likely not produce an ideal optimized solution. This research examines the combination of the two linear procedures into a single …

Non-linear excitation and governor control
… to consider using relatively complicated nonlinear control algorithms, which would have been considered impractical in the past. This thesis presents the results of a study of the variable structure control and inverse control technique for the design of excitation and governor controllers …

Aspects of Pulaar Non-Linear Phonology
… is to study aspects of Pulaar Phonology from a non-linear perspective. The thesis is divided into six chapters organized as follows: we begin with an introductory chapter in which we present certain crucial facts and general notions about Pulaar. We give the vowel as well as consonant inventory …

Non-Linear diffusion processes and applications
… to work with. This is especially true for non-linear and/or time-inhomogeneous diffusion models where even basic statistical properties of the process can be elusive. As such, we explore various techniques for analysing non-linear diffusion models in contexts ranging from conducting …

Some Issues on Optimal Non-Linear Taxation
In this thesis we apply an optimal taxation approach to analyze how citizens' private information may affect Social Planner 's goal of redistribution across individuals. In fi rst two Chapters, we allow individuals to emigrate to a laissez-faire country. Chapter 1 assumes the existence of two types …

Interactive computer graphics in non-linear optimization.
… field of both interactive computer graphics and non-linear optimization. The potential contribution of interactive computer graphics in nonlinear optimization is then evaluated from the points of view of model formulation and solution, and the requirements of an interactive system for realizing …

Low complexity extensions of non-linear mappings
Linear systems work very well for the transmission of discrete-time continuous amplitude samples in poor signal-to-noise conditions, but their performance does not improve when the quality of the channel increases. Specifically, for high signal-to-noise ratios the gap with respect to the …

Water Wave Refraction with Non-Linear Theory
<p>Two different kinds of wave refraction models are formulated in the present study using Stokes' third order wave theory. One type of model is utilized in a parametric study employing several different topographies. Wave trajectories obtained from this model, when obtained by using first and …

Financial prediction using non linear classification techniques
… Our classification methods include conventional Linear Dicriminant Analysis (LDA), and a number of less familiar non-linear techniques such as Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN), Learning Vector Quanization (LVQ), Oblique Classifer (OCI), and Ripper Rule Induction (RRI).

Non-linear Contact Analysis of Meshing Gears
… on stiffness cycle and meshing stiffness of non-linear quasi-static finite element modeling. The comparisons of meshing stiffness will concentrate on the type of elements, the integration methods, the meshing quality, plane stress and plane strain analysis, sensitivity of model tolerance, and …

Application-oriented Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming
… there is a renovate interest for Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) problems. This can be explained for different reasons: (i) the performance of solvers handling non-linear constraints was largely improved; (ii) the awareness that most of the applications from the real-world can be …
