Interstitial space in health care facilities : planning for change & evolution
… for change & growth, and lifecycle economy. Interstitial Space is considered as a solution to these demands and found to be an appropriate design response. The Systems Approach is used as the methodology to analyze and organize the design and construction process within the general frame of …

Urban temporal storage : re-thinking the public domain using interstitial space in NYC
This thesis aims to rethink the notion of public space and civic duty in the city. By using interstitial, underused spaces, without disputing present urban and legal status, the thesis wants to accomodate services for the people who might otherwise be ignored in the city, while using the potential …

The illusion of time: a study of heterotopic interstitial space and interplay of dynamic movement systems as an architectural strategy to investigate new modes of space making in the age of the network
… and intermingling with one another over time and space. This dissertation is a purely hypothetical project which aims to explore the links and relations between spaces; specifically, the connection between the creations of heterotopic interstitial space within the urban fabric due to the interplay …

Inhabiting the interstitial: design experiments in aviary architecture and habitat creation
This thesis explores the potential of urban interstitial spaces in bird habitat creation. An interstitial space is the space in-between, underneath, beyond, enveloped, and outside our traditional concepts of habitat and urban space. It is the space between spaces, the space that eludes maps, an …

Quantitative Measurement of Velocity and Dispersion via Magnetic Resonance Imaging
… Taylor-Couette-Poiseuille flow reactor, and the interstitial space between the blades of a rotating partitioned pipe mixer. Key findings show that a snapshot FLASH spin-tagging sequence can provide time-resolved visualization of 3-D swirling flows in domains with rotational symmetry. In addition, …

Computer simulations for a scholastic theory of granular drainage
… by the migration of extended regions of excess interstitial space upward from the orifice at the bottom. An implementation of this model with the purpose of simulating the behavior of particles in the silo was developed by the author, and several results were obtained using simulations carried …

Staging Hollywood: Theater in a Mediatized Culture
… narratives beyond the threshold of the theatre space into their own private space. In the case of the ""participatory spectator"" the body becomes the site of negotiation between the dominant media and the smaller, but still relevant theatre. The spectator's body becomes an interstitial space, …

Light and shadow transitions
… is both temporal and spatial. It is the interstitial space where changes happen. A thoughtful architectural transition prepares for journey ahead by intensifying aspects of space and relating it to the before and after. In the analogous the trifold structure of time and tenses, transition …

Portable magnetic resonance sensors and methods for noninvasive disease diagnostics
… accumulation of fluids within the intramuscular interstitial space. A direct measurement of these fluid shifts could serve as a highly specific diagnostic or prognostic tool to improve clinical management of these disorders. Proton magnetic resonance is exquisitely sensitive to the local physical …

In vitro permeability studies of antitumor compounds, thioxanthones across two model barriers, and their availability in vivo
… to anti-tumor agents. A drug has to cross the interstitial space of tumors and many layers of cells to reach the interior of a tumor. The main objective of this study was to develop two new in vitro models to evaluate the in vivo availability of antitumor compounds to solid tumors.</p> …

Counterbending in a flagellum macromodel
… with the last pair running down the center. The interstitial space consists of springy proteins and nexin bridges which radially connect the microtubules. Due to this structural complexity and minuscule size, the physical phenomena that occur within the flagellum itself are not well understood. …

Spark Gap
… is an invisible electrical force made visible in spaces between things. This usually describes the space of air between two conductors; a non-conductive gap in an otherwise complete electric circuit, across which a quick luminous disruptive electrical discharge occurs. This interstitial space is …

Development of a superabsorber based haemofiltration technology for use in paediatric cardiac surgery
… frequently results in fluid accumulation in the interstitial space (edema). Theassociated inflammatory response can, in severe cases, result in systemic immune responsesyndrome, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and organ failure.Modified Ultrafiltration (MUF) involves pumping blood through a …

The influence of the microstructural shape on the mechanical behaviour of interpenetrating phase composites
… of an interconnected spherical phase with the interstitial space forming the other interconnected phase, and the second replacing the spherical phase with an interconnected cylindrical phase. With the simulation of a uniaxial tension test under elastic and plastic conditions, these two models …

Brief encounter : transformation of space underneath elevated expressway through surface design
… interrupting pedestrian street life. The space underneath an elevated roadway is usually undesirable for inhabitance due to poor lighting and acoustical qualities. In regards, this thesis project intends to create an association between elevated structures and public space. The thesis, …

Multistage nanoparticle delivery system for deep penetration into solid tumor and electrically controlled catalytic nanowire growth
… into tumors and high diffusion in the tumor's interstitial space. To our knowledge, this work is the first demonstration of a size-changing nanoparticle delivery system in vivo. Multistage nanoparticle delivery systems provide a promising approach to improving the delivery of anticancer agents …

Providing Connections: A Wetland Boardwalk
… and habitat value. The design concept, An Interstitial Space that Provides Connections, is guided by principles which include connecting humans to nature, connecting humans to environmental education, enabling protection and stewardship, and designing for multi-functional landscapes and …

Retiring to paradise? : reassessing liminality through leisure migration to Spain
… following a lifetime of working. They enter an interstitial space devoted to the pursuit of adult play. The thesis interrogates the reality of such rewards, looking at the tensions inherent in the 'freedom' sought within utopian spaces such as Spain. I reveal how the imagined freedoms …

“Teachers should have knowledge of different types of music”: a case study of culturally sustaining pedagogy in three high school choral programs
… dexterity, code-switching, and style shifting, interstitial space between styles, and developing connections. The implications of this research pertain to proposed changes in music teacher preparation and in-service music educator professional development. These changes could positively impact …
