Interstitial geometries
The design of this architecture academy for one hundred students is an exploration of educational function, geometric construction with digital drawing tools, perspectival manipulation, and minimalist architectural aesthetics. Within the school are studio spaces, a shop, a library, a lecture room, …

Geometries of word embeddings
Real-valued word embeddings have transformed natural language processing (NLP) applications, recognized for their ability to capture linguistic regularities. Popular examples are word2vec, GloVe, GPT and BERT. Both word2vec and GloVe are static whose word representations are independent of its …

Particle swarms in confining geometries
<p>The transport of micro- and nano-particles in subsurface fluid deposits is an area of increasing interest due to the rising use of these particles for consumer and industrial purposes. Subsurface particle transport is complicated by the presence of fractures and fracture networks which govern …

Finite geometries and block designs
<p>"This thesis is mainly an exposition to the ideas in finite geometry, specifically affine and projective planes as well as block designs. We conclude with a chapter on how to apply these ideas to coding theory. Some of the results we look at include both the Bruck-Ryser and Bruck-Ryser-Chowla …

Wave Tracking in Complex Geometries
A new equation of state (EOS) for a reactive, non-ideal explosive was developed to be used in the explosive applications. The new EOS was based on the earlier work of W. C. Davis, who developed equations of state for the reactants and products separately. The new EOS presents a plausible way to …

Mesh generation for implicit geometries
… for generation of unstructured meshes for geometries specified by implicit functions. An initial mesh is iteratively improved by solving for a force equilibrium in the element edges, and the boundary nodes are projected using the implicit geometry definition. Our algorithm generalizes to …

Overlapping Geometries: 1+1=3
The idea of two elements overlapping to create a third element is a very simple idea, yet one imbued with possibility. It can be as simple as two colors combining to create a new color: yellow + blue = green. This new, third element can stand alone, but it always retains traces of the two original …

Emergent geometries of groundwater-fed rivers
Groundwater-fed rivers form stunning geometries over a range of scales. These rivers grow as water from an underground aquifer reemerges and erodes the overlying topography. Both the aquifer and the overlying topography generate flows along diffusive gradients. We study three features produced by …

Optimizing registration of complex vascular geometries
Advances in imaging, such as coronary angiography, intravascular ultrasound, and optical coherence tomography, can improve procedural success and outcomes for endovascular catheter intervention, such as stent implantation. Yet, these imaging modalities are not universally embraced; and thus, …

MICA: Fluid Flow Over Varying Geometries
The MICA program attempts to make hands on experiments involving measurement, instrumentation, controls, and analysis broadly available in the form of affordable and portable set-ups. A portable water flow visualization chamber was designed and prototyped for use in fluids courses to enable hands …

Abstract hyperovals, partial geometries, and transitive hyperovals
A hyperoval is a (q+2)- arc of a projective plane π, of order q with q even. Let G denote the collineation group of π containing a hyperoval Ω. We say that Ω is transitive if for any pair of points x, y is an element of Ω, there exists a g is an element of G fixing Ω setwise such that xg = y. …

Characterising and constructing codes using finite geometries
Codeertheorie en eindige meetkunde zijn nauw aan elkaar verwant. Resultaten in het ene onderzoeksveld impliceren nieuwe bevindingen in het andere, en vice versa. Bovendien kent elk domein haar eigen troeven en loont het om een bestaand probleem vanuit beide disciplines te benaderen. Dit …
