Nontraditional Positional Games: New methods and boards for playing Tic-Tac-Toe
In this dissertation we explore variations on Tic-Tac-Toe. We consider positional games played using a new type of move called a hop. A hop involves two parts: move and replace. In a hop the positions occupied by both players will change: one will move a piece to a new position and one will gain a …

From Tic-tac-toe to AlphaGo: a survey of algorithms used in various games
… various games such as rock paper scissors, tic-tac-toe and go by turning a game’s qualitative aspects into quantitative aspects to talk about them mathematically. Game theory and the concept of a Nash equilibrium and subgame perfect equilibrium are introduced, as well as methods for computing …

Study of TaC Supported Ir-Based Oxygen Evolution Reaction Electrocatalysts Synthesized by Surfactant-Mediated Method
… electrochemical properties of Tantalum carbide (TaC) as a potential support for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts were investigated. It was first ball milled for 7 and 14 days in order to decrease the particle size and increase the surface area. The larger the surface area of a …

Molecular Diagnosis of Lower Respiratory Tract Infection in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit
… 52-pathogen custom TaqMan array card (TAC) in critically ill children who had suspected LRTI. This semi-quantitative PCR array had been previously validated in a study of adults with suspected ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP). I adapted this protocol to be suitable for children and …

Developing a spectroscopy-based high throughput assay for anthocyanin content in corn
… assays to determine total anthocyanin content (TAC) exist, they are cumbersome, time consuming, and often requires destroying the sample. Spectroscopy-based assays are simple, fast, and nondestructive analytical tools that may be used in determining TAC in fruits and cereal grains, and near …

The polyhedral Gauss map and discrete curvature measures in geometric modelling.
… The concept of Total Absolute Curvature (TAC) has been established to overcome this limitation, as a measure of curvature independent of the orientation of local geometry. However no correct implementation of the TAC exists for polyhedral surfaces, besides very simple cases.For …

Structure-Property Relationships of Tantalum Carbide Foams and Synthesis of an Interpenetrating Phase Composite
… decreased linearly within tantalum carbide (TaC)/reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) foams as areal TaC density increased. All MCNP modeling runs predicted slightly higher neutron transmission than what was experimentally measured, potentially indicating that the foam structure had a small …

Microstructural formations and phase transformation pathways in tantalum carbides
… and high melting temperatures. Tantalum carbide (TaC) and its sub-stoichiometric Ta2C and Ta4C3 phases have emerged as candidate materials for ultra-high temperature structural applications. A consequence of the high melting temperature is the limiting methods to fabricate near-net shape, near …

RalGDS-Dependent Cardiomyocyte Autophagy Is Necessary for Load-Induced Ventricular Hypertrophy
… manifested a blunted growth response (p<0.05) to TAC-mediated pressure-overload stress as determined by heart weight to body weight ratios Ventricular chamber size and contractile performance were preserved in response to TAC in Ralgds-/- mice. Interestingly, TAC-induced activation of the fetal …

Learning in Social Movements: A research study of awareness and understanding of a Treatment Literacy programme implemented by the Treatment Action Campaign in the Western Cape in the period 2001 to 2009
… implemented by the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) in the Western Cape in the period 2001 to 2009. The study investigates what attracted the participants to the TAC; what they learnt and how this was taught; the extent, if any, to which participant's experiences changed their understanding of …
