Assembling Places
A study on the possibilities of place-making by systematically separating the traditional responsibilities of the wall as an architectural element. Walls usually serve several simultaneous structural, enveloping and distributional duties. The project consists in designing a house where four …

Assembling Integrated Electronics
Modern high-performance computing (HPC) systems consist of static architectures built from monolithic components. Miniaturization driven by lithographic technology has pushed Moore’s Law to its limit after more than half a century, to the point that new chips require multi-billion dollar …

Self assembling magnetic tiles
… has shown that such a chain is capable of self assembling into any 3D shape without self-intersection. The 3D shape created by the chain is predetermined by the sequence of the tiles. For this thesis, two chains were manufactured, each self assembling into one distinct shape. One chain self …

Pro-Angiogenic Self-Assembling Peptides
… biocompatibility and biodegradability. Self-assembling peptide-based materials include a wide range of peptide motifs that form one-dimensional nanostructures in aqueous solution. Two different PAs are considered in this M.S. thesis work: lipidated peptides, and gas-releasing peptides (GRPs). …

Toward misreading : assembling (k)new meaning
This thesis explores meaning-making strategies in art practices through an entangled reading of the material and discursive forms through which that meaning is made. This thesis proposes that a necessarily material-discursive approach distinguishes art practices from other forms of meaning-making …

Optical Interactions in Self-Assembling Systems
… we address these challenges in optical self-assembling systems by exploring two approaches: how light may be used to manipulate the nanostructure and microstructure of a self-assembling system, and how the correlated nanostructure and microstructure can be used to manipulate light. We …

Self Assembling Phenylene Vinylene Materials and Devices
A new class of self assembling rodcoil molecules was recently synthesized and their solid state structure was rigorously characterized. These molecules have a triblock architecture with a rigid rod molecular compound coupled to a diblock coil composed of an oligomeric flexible spacer and a bulky …

s-Triazine-Based Self-Assembling Information Molecules
Abstract s-Triazine-Based Self-Assembling Information Molecules Nature stores biological information in form of a four-letter alphabet within the polymeric chain of DNA. Here, we have designed a series of triazine-based oligomers equipped with hydrogen bond acceptor (A) and donor (D) sites, which …

Self-assembling nanocomposite Tectons for ordered superlattices
Nanocomposites, materials of heterogeneous composition with at least one of the phases having dimensions between 1-100 nm, can be produced with unique properties dependent on their composition and geometric configuration. However, it is a major challenge to precisely and simultaneously design the …

Artificial and natural nucleic acid self assembling systems
<p>Nucleic acids are good candidates for nanomachine construction. They participate in all the processes of life, and so can function as structural building blocks and dynamic catalysts. However, to use nucleic acids as nanomachines, a better understanding of their material properties, how to …

Self-Assembling Bioaffinity Hydrogels for Localized Antibody Delivery
… domain was genetically fused to the self-assembling sequence (AEAEAKAK)<sub>3</sub> (single amino acid code; hereafter “EAK”). The rationale was that reducing the number of interactions would enhance the translational prospect of the bioaffinity hydrogel. Sustained release and prolonged …

Towards Self-assembling Multichromophoric Materials for Organic Semiconductors
Organic semiconductors are generally lightweight, flexible materials that can be solution processed. These properties make them an economical alternative to inorganic semiconductors, as they can be more easily manufactured and integrated into existing infrastructure. However, organic electronic …

Moodtrack : practical methods for assembling emotion-driven music
This thesis presents new methods designed for the deconstruction and reassembly of musical works based on a target emotional contour. Film soundtracks provide an ideal testing ground for organizing music around strict timing and emotional criteria. The approach to media analysis applies Minsky's …

Assembling the Ineffable in Kurt Schwitters’ Architectural Models
During the early 1920s, the German artist and poet, Kurt Schwitters, developed a method of creating models of architecture using found objects based upon his Merz approach to art. While many leading architects joined the Arbeitsrat für Kunst and Bruno Taut's Gläserne Kette at the end of World War …

Modeling of Therapeutic Drugs, Polymers, and Self-Assembling Peptides
… evasion by tumor cells. Second, we explored self-assembling functionalized peptides as localized therapeutics against viruses, bacteria, and fungi. These fibril-forming peptides were also examined as binders for human proteins to promote endogenous activity. Finally, we studied a hypothetical …

Kinetic and structural evolution of functional peptide assembling networks
… therapies. Although the assembly structures and assembling pathways have been studied for decades, the complex multistep mechanism remains to be clarified. The main goal of this thesis is to investigate the assembly mechanism of functional peptide assemblies. First, the crucial building blocks …

Assembling The Building Blocks For A Unified Splicing Code
DNA contains the code for the functioning of biological systems. The central dogma of molecular biology describes the processing of this code: DNA is transcribed to RNA, which is translated to proteins. In eukaryotes, DNA is transcribed to pre-mRNA. Subsequently, a single pre-mRNA can encode for …
