SALT spectropolarimetry commissioning
The large (10m) aperture of the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) coupled with the unique capabilities of the Robert Stobie Spectrograph (RSS), promises unparalleled prospects for polarimetric observations on an 8 - 10 m class telescope. RSS is a complex and highly versatile first-generation …

Commissioning a 400 Hz rotary inverter
This dissertation covers the commissioning and testing of an aircraft's constant frequency alternator as the power supply for the Blue Parrot radar. The Blue Parrot is an X-band radar which forms part of the navigation and weapon-aiming system onboard the Buccaneer S-50 SAAF aircraft. The radar set …

Auto-commissioning and Resource Allocation Based Control of Smart Lights
… (due to the high cost of sensors), an auto-commissioning algorithm is developed which dynamically groups the lamps and sensors and performs control based on the coupling in the system. It was found to be very effective in achieving the desired lighting levels for different configurations of …

Characterizing the Mechanisms Regulating Enhancer Commissioning by MyoD in Muscle Cells
Myogenesis refers to the cellular process required for muscle formation and repair of damaged muscle tissue. During this process, the activation of muscle gene expression is tightly regulated to ensure efficient transitions between cell fates. This activation is promoted by large groups of …

Commissioning the DIRC Detector and Searching for Axion-like Particles at GlueX
… mesons. This thesis describes the construction, commissioning, reconstruction, and calibration of the GlueX DIRC detector. Originally proposed to solve the strong CP problem, axions and axion-like particles are hypothetical pseudoscalar particles found in many proposed extensions to the Standard …

Commissioning genetic modification: The marginalisation of dissent in the royal commission on genetic modification
The Royal Commission on Genetic Modification (RCGM) appeared to be a 'public debate'. It sought the participation of people from a cross-section of society according to its broad terms of reference, and invited input on 'options' for the nation. The majority of the public and special interest …
