On the Breadth of the Jones Polynomial for Certain Classes of Knots and Links
The problem of finding the crossing number of an arbitrary knot or link is a hard problem in general. Only for very special classes of knots and links can we solve this problem. Often we can only hope to find a lower bound on the crossing number Cr(K) of a knot or a link K by computing the Jones …

Social media enhanced boundary crossing: exploring distance students' ecosystems of learning support
As the demand for distance learning increases, traditional campus-based universities continue to struggle in supporting working distance students. This has resulted in the increased phenomena of students using social media within their ecosystems of learning support. The use of formal and informal …

Mixed traffic in Chinese cities : bicycle and the intersection problems
The mixed traffic (the traffic made up of bicycles and automobiles) is widely spread in Chinese cities. It is also greatly responsible for major traffic problems, such as the conflicts, low efficiency and safety problems. These problems are most evident at street intersections. However, they have …

The Water Imagery in the Psalms: An Inner-Biblical Interpretation
This dissertation examines the use of water imagery in the book of Psalms and argues that the psalmists primarily employed this imagery to allude to four accounts of God's works in the Pentateuch--the waters of creation, the water in the Garden of Eden, the flood, and the crossing of the Red …

ACCEPTANCE OF WILDLIFE CROSSING STRUCTURES ON US HIGHWAY 93 MISSOULA, MONTANA
Wildlife and humans have always interacted on the landscape. However, growing transportation infrastructure and its associated use are causing a large increase in direct and indirect effects on wildlife populations. Humans can also directly be affected, for example, through wildlife-vehicle …

Small mammal microhabitat use and species composition at a wildlife crossing structure compared with nearby forest
… corridors have fragmented ecosystems throughout the world, restricting the movement of organisms or acting as complete connectivity barriers. Wildlife crossing structures (WCS) can increase the permeability of roads, allowing animals to move safely between habitats. Small mammals are especially …

A Comparison of Bayesian Regression Models Applied in Knot Theory
This thesis explores variations on a Bayesian regression model used to estimate the mean box length of a random knot as a function of the number of edges of that knot. Specifically, this research recognizes uncertainty in box length variance and compares the resulting inference with that based on …

Spatial and temporal regulation of IL4Rα expression
… of IL-IL4Rα expression. This model has the potential to add a new dimension to our understanding of IL4Rα biology. This has been achieved by using the established Tet System (Goosen and Bujard, 1992) where the crossing of two complementary transgenic mouse lines enable the generation of …

Another World Entire: the Posthumanism of Cormac Mccarthy
… reading of three of his novels, Child of God, The Crossing, and The Road , this project reveals how McCarthy's stories paradoxically unravel the dangerous human desire to make of our world a story. His characters, Lester Ballard, Billy Parham, and the boy, become posthuman as they live …

Applications of particle physics to the early universe
In this thesis, I show some of the results of my research work in the field at the crossing between Cosmology and Particle Physics. The Cosmology of several models of the Physics Beyond the Standard Model is studied. These range from an inflationary model based on the condensation of a ghost-like …
