Clustering studies of radio-selected galaxies
… predictions by performing simulations of the non-linear structure formation. Further we examine how the bias evolves with redshift for radio galaxies detected in the the first survey.

Physicomechanical Response of Ionic Polyurethanes on Endothelial Cells
… hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), which has a linear structure and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), with a non-linear structure. By utilizing the inter-segmental interaction along with ionic interactions, the relaxation of PU chains can lead to well-defined physicomechanical responses, …

The Seeds of Sustainability: An Interactive CD Rom Exploring the Role of Architects, Planners and Designers in Achieving a Sustainable Future
… be engaged by. The information is presented in a non-linear structure to allow dynamic connections between related pieces of information and between design strategies that solve problems within seemingly different areas. Ultimately, the final product is intended to become a CD rom with dynamic …

The Death of Lily
… in third person limited-past tense. In using a non-linear structure, the novel not only gives the sense of suspense, but also plays with the subjective mind of the reader. The synopsis of the novel:William Thierry is a young and prodigious visiting lecturer in the undistinguished and underfunded …

Non-linear model-based predictive control of a low-temperature gasoline combustion engine
Topic of this thesis is the development of a non-linear MPC for the lowtemperature gasoline combustion (CAI) in a four-stroke single-cylinder engine. This process must be steered without the actuator of the spark plug. Moreover, smallest changes in the ambient conditions move the self-ignition …

Complexity Analysis of Physiological Time Series with Applications to Neonatal Sleep Electroencephalogram Signals
… measures is provided and it is determined that nonlinear dynamic analysis is complimentary to the traditional linear methods for EEG signal processing. Surrogate data analysis is used to test the nonlinearity structure in the signal. The complexity of the neonatal sleep EEG signals were further …

Galaxy clusters as astrophysical laboratories and probes of cosmology
… clusters are the most recent of cosmological structures to have formed by the present time in the currently favoured hierarchical scenario of structure formation and are widely regarded as powerful probes of cosmology and galaxy formation physics alike. Over the past few years, it became …

Theorizing Digital Narrative: Beginnings, Endings, and Authorship
… on how these works make revolutionary use of non-linear structure, hyperlinks, and user interaction. Scholars of digital narrative have most often focused their critiques within the paradigms of either the text-centric structuralist model of narrativity or post-structuralist models that …

ISO-maps for Non-linear Dimension Reduction - Addressing Geometric and Numerical Issues Observed in Practice
… make simplifying assumptions about the variation structure of the data and permit approximating high-dimensional structures using only a few components. In the context of modern day machine learning applications, such assumptions can rarely be justified. To this end, Tenenbaum, de Silva, and …

Riemannian statistical techniques with applications in fMRI
… connectivity matrices have an intrinsic non-linear shape that respects the positive definite criteria (the affine-invariant geometry (Pennec, Fillard, & Ayache, 2006)). With methods from Riemannian geometric statistics, we can begin to explore the shape of the functional brain to …
