Controlling Viscous Fingering
Viscous fingering occurs when one fluid displaces another fluid of a greater viscosity in a porous medium or a Hele-Shaw cell. Linear stability analysis is used to predict methods of suppressing instability. Then, experiments in which nonlinear growth dominates pattern formation are analysed to …

Understanding Controlling Shareholder Regimes
… United States and the United Kingdom, although "controlling shareholder regimes" constitute the vast majority of the world's economy. Since there have been few systematic studies concerning controlling shareholder regimes (in particular, controlling shareholder regimes in developing countries), …

Controlling polymer network topology
Chapter 1: Introduction to Polymer Network Topology on a (Macro)Molecular Level Polymer network topology, comprising the ways in which strands and junctions are connected in polymer networks, plays a critical role in dictating many material properties. Here we discuss classical challenges in the …

Controlling open quantum systems
… resonance techniques) of new methods for controlling open quantum systems. First, methods that improve coherent control through the use of both strong control fields and detailed knowledge of the system's Hamiltonian are demonstrated. With the aid of numerical search methods, pulsed …

Controlling Neural Language Generation
Large-scale neural language models have made impressive strides in natural language generation. However, typical models operate in a left-to-right, unconstrained fashion with limited control over what is generated. This thesis explores flexible sequence models and weakly supervised methods to …

Exceptional tunings: controlling urban events
This thesis is about space, law and control: how their relationship unfolds in the contemporary city, and how normative orderings emerge out of the urban mess, with particular attention to how this occurs in the extraordinary spatio-temporal context of mega events. The work is premised on the …

Controlling the Walrasian tatonnement process
In this thesis I examine a discrete-time Walrasian tatonnement process. The criterion for stability is examined in a two good tatonnement process. It is shown that the stability of the system depends upon the speed of adjustment and holdings of endowments as well as preferences. It is then shown …

Techniques for Controlling Structural Vibrations
We tackle the problem of suppressing high-amplitude vibrations of cantilever beams when subjected to either primary external or principal parametric resonances. Guided by results of previous investigations into the nonlinear dynamics of single- and multi-degree-of-freedom structures, we design …

Controlling Growth in Echinacea Hybrids
New hybrid Echinacea cultivars, based on crosses of Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench with several other Echinacea species, have generated interest and excitement in the marketplace due to novel flower colors and forms. However, these cultivars vary significantly in their growth habits and …

Controlling Gene Expression with Synthetic Molecules
Aberrant gene expression patterns have been implicated in several pathological states. Synthetic molecules capable of functionally mimicking native transcription factors and regulating gene expression in a specific and predictable manner may represent a new paradigm in drug development. Native …

Immunological mechanisms controlling chronic inflammatory diseases
… In this thesis I studied different mechanisms controlling the development of CIDs. I investigated the initial events involved in the activation of self-reactive CD4+ T cells which mediate the destruction of the thyroid in a mouse model of spontaneous thyroiditis. TAZ10 transgenic mice express a …

Molecular pathways controlling DNA damage response
P53 is inactivated in around 50 % of human neoplasms and more than 26,000 somatic mutations of the p53 have reported in human cancers. P53 network is activated after cells are exposed to the DNA damage and depending on diverse conditions and type of DNA damage, p53 upregulation could lead to …

Controlling Contact Transitions for Dynamic Robots
… achieving more dynamic robots lies within controlling contact interactions with their environment. Legged robots undergoing impacts experience near-instantaneous changes in their velocities, making accurate state estimation difficult and resulting in controller sensitivity to even small …
