Experiments in inhumanity
Experiments in Inhumanity utilises for its setting the recognisable suburban backdrop of a mid to late nineties and early 21st century Cape Town and Pretoria. It focuses its attention around a specific white, middle class experience within pop-culture, making many references to music, television …

Portable controls experiments
Experiments for controls classes like MIT's 2.004 require large lab setups and expensive equipment such as oscilloscopes and function generators. We developed a series of controls experiments based on National Instruments' myDAQ platform. These experiments, which are small enough to fit on a single …

Field experiments in retailing
This dissertation consists of two essays on tactical issues in retailing. The first essay compares the price sensitivity of private label and national brand products. A large-scale field experiment shows that private label demand is less price sensitive than national brand demand. The estimates …

Experiments on powder metals
This thesis describes an experimental program aimed at the development of elastic-plastic constitutive relations for cold compaction of ANCOR MH-100 iron powder. A systematic experimental program consisting of triaxial compression, torsion ring shear, uniaxial strain compression, and simple …

Experiments in service learning
Service learning, an educational method that involves the application of academic work to projects that benefit under-served communities, was explored in two complementary forms. First, the development of an alternative form of charcoal made from sugarcane agricultural waste is discussed, including …

Experiments on biomarker preservation
… endmembers that serve as approximate experiments on biomarker preservation. Furthermore, this dissertation includes a series of laboratory modeling experiments to determine the stability of ribonucleic acid (RNA) under early Mars-like conditions and groundtruthing experiments which …

Three Experiments on Complex Fluids
… many applications. This thesis reports on three experiments on the thermal and rheological behaviour of complex fluids. The first is a study of the rheological properties of and heat transport in a saline solution of hydroxyethyl cellulose. This material has been used as a tissue phantom in …

Experiments with hidden Markov models
This is a report on the results of our experiments with hidden Markov models, focusing on Markov chains with generative transitions and the Baum-Welch algorithm. We explore generating the hypothesis model in various ways. We use the hypothesis model as the original model. And we investigate the …

Autonomous aggressive driving: theory & experiments
Autonomous vehicles represent a major trend in future intelligent transportation systems. In order to develop autonomous vehicles, this dissertation intends to understand expert driving maneuvers in different scenarios such as highway overtaking and off-road rally racing, which are referred to as …

Experiments in Graphene and Plasmonics
Graphene nanoribbons, graphene based optical sensors, and grating based plasmonics are explored experimentally. Graphene nanoribbons exhibit highly insulating states that may allow for graphene based digital applications. We investigate the sensitivity of these states to local charged impurities in …
