Rebound: Scalable checkpointing for coherent shared memory
… To address this problem, this paper introduces Rebound, the first hardware-based scheme for co- ordinated local checkpointing in multiprocessors with directory-based cache coherence. Rebound leverages the transactions of a directory protocol to track inter-thread dependences. In addition, it …

Droplet Rebound and Atomization Characteristics of Vibrating Surfaces
Icing on aircraft wings is one of the leading causes of aircraft crashes. It is mainly caused due to accumulation of ice or snow on the wing surface due to impact with supercooled droplets when passing through clouds at high altitudes, causing loss of lift obtained by the wings. It was found that …

Droplets in an Electric Field: Surface Rheology, Coalescence and Rebound
… (Ca<sup>E</sup> = 0.1), the droplet pair rebounds with opposite charge and leaves a satellite droplet between them.</p> <p>In applications of electrocoalescence, generally, there is a finite angle, ψ between the pair center line and applied uniform field. We developed a non-axisymmetric …

Land Rebound and Preconsolidation Head in the Houston Ship Channel Area
… area has arrested and given way to slight land rebound occurring at a rate mostly between 0.2 and 1 centimeter per year. To better understand the change from land subsidence to land rebound, preconsolidation heads, which indicate the threshold between elastic and inelastic deformation, should be …

Effect of Temperature on Microparticle Rebound Characteristics at Constant Impact Velocity
… effects of temperature and velocity on particle rebound from a polished high temperature material coupon. The high temperature coupon was tested at different temperatures of ambient (300K), 873K, 1073K, 1173 K, 1223 K, 1273 K, and 1323 K while the velocity of the flow field was held constant at …

Computation of economic rebound effect in different sectors of the U.S. economy
Economic rebound effect is the phenomenon in which price reduction in products and services, induced by energy efficiency increase will cause more consumption leading to an "eat away" of the potential decreases in energy usage. Several researchers have expressed their views on the existence of the …

Geometry-Dependent Fracture and Rebound of Particulate under Compressor-Relevant Impact Conditions
… focusing on how particle shape influences both rebound and fracture. The research shows that particle geometry strongly affects how energy is transferred during impact, how fragments are created, and how they move afterward. New ways of describing particle shape were developed that simplify the …

Essays on Moral-Psychological Rebound Effects and Feedback Interventions for Sustainable Consumer Behavior
This dissertation examines moral-psychological rebound effects and feedback interventions in the context of climate-friendly consumer behavior. While measures such as energy efficiency improvements, sufficiency-oriented consumption, or carbon offsetting aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, their …

The countermovement rebound jump assessment: validity, reliability, associations with athletic performance and sensitivity to change
… To address this, the countermovement rebound jump (CMRJ), which combines characteristics of both the CMJ and DJ, has been proposed as a potential alternative. Despite its promise, the between-session reliability, and practical utility of the CMRJ remain underexplored, limiting its …

The technology-evoked time use rebound effect and its impact on consumer behaviour in tourism.
… energy demand, the phenomenon known as the rebound effect (RE). Time savings from time efficiency technologies can similarly intensify energy consumption, leading to the so- called time use rebound effect (TRE). Efficiency improvement technologies have been employed in tourist transport to …

An investigation of carbon footprint reductions achievable in Cape Town social housing considering rebound effects
… These conclusions, however, do not take the rebound effect into account, where money saved from spending less on electricity or transport, is spent eventually, either on more electricity and transport, or on other goods and services with an associated carbon footprint.

Origin and Correlates of Viral Rebound in SIV-Infected Rhesus Macaques Following Discontinuation of ART
The earliest events of viral rebound following discontinuation of ART in people living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 remain largely unknown. We investigated detailed reservoir characteristics and viral rebound dynamics in 18 Simian Immunodeficiency Virus-infected rhesus macaques treated with …

Experimental Investigation of Temperature Effects on Microparticle Sand Rebound Characteristics at Gas Turbine Representative Conditions
… and has been widely used to quantify particle rebound characteristics in past particle impact studies. This work investigates the effects of temperature on sand particle impact characteristics by measuring the COR and other deposition related impact parameters. The first study presented as part …

Rail Rebound: The Impact of Freight Rails on Regional Development in the United States, 1970-2010
<p>Railroads have played a critical role in economic growth and development, and they exert a tremendous impact on the distribution and redistribution of the population. However, the impacts of railroads, especially freight rails, on population change and socioeconomic development are not well …

The relationship between the position of the shot and the flight of the rebound in a basketball game
<p>The purpose of this study was to observe rebounding tendencies as related to the area on the basketball floor where a shot was taken and the direction which the rebound traveled.</p>

Three essays on energy economics: Policy options and evaluation
… My third dissertation chapter examines the rebound effect, an important concept in conservation and energy economics that measures the reduction in energy savings from energy efficiency improvements. My co-author and I construct a new general equilibrium model to derive analytical …
