Investigations of Retrodirective Array Transponders.
Retrodirective arrays, when illuminated by an interrogator signal, transmit a signal back towards the interrogator in the same direction as the incoming signal, without any prior knowledge of the source direction. With a retrodirective array the system efficiently transmits a signal without any …

Investigations on discriminative training criteria
In this work, a framework for efficient discriminative training and modeling is developed and implemented for both small and large vocabulary continuous speech recognition. Special attention will be directed to the comparison and formalization of varying discriminative training criteria and …

Experimental Investigations of Strategic Interactions
This dissertation explores whether and when people act strategically: that is, how people's actions are influenced by others' actions (Chapters 1 and 2) and preferences (Chapter 3). Chapter 1, titled "Paternalistic Persuasion", studies whether paternalistic experts ("Advisors'') can make …

Investigations of Asphaltene-Metal Interactions
Asphaltenes are the most polar fraction of petroleum that can precipitate due to changes in pressure, temperature and composition which may be encountered during petroleum production and transportation. The precipitated asphaltenes can subsequently deposit on the surfaces of …

Investigations into Social Game Theory
Investigations into Social Game Theory is a document that describes my two-year exploration of the ritual encapsulated in our societal framework. It discusses the thoughts and processes that accompanied the three bodies of work that led to the creation of my final thesis exhibition.

NMR investigations of cyanate resins
Heterogeneous polymer products are very complex systems. In many cases, the properties of these polymer systems are determined by the nature and the degree of reaction of a small number of functional groups in the system. However, it is very difficult to study them by most analytical techniques due …

Two investigations in molecular pathophysiology
This thesis is in two discrete parts. The first part deals with the mechanism of auto-stimulatory growth in the pathogenesis of malignant neoplasia. Experiments were undertaken to investigate the question of whether antagonism of growth-factor activity can lead to the death of the cells of a murine …

Immunological investigations into synaptic plasticity
Antibody technology was applied to the study of synaptic plasticity resulting from passive avoidance training in the chick and long-term potentiation in the rat. These studies fell into three categories: 1) the disruption of memory for a one-trial passive avoidance task by intracranial injection of …

Some investigations of phosphorus ylides
N-(o-aminophenyl)-iminotriphenylphosphorane (I) has been synthesised and its physical and chemical properties studied in depth, especially in its nucleophilic reactions.

Biospectroscopy investigations Into cervical cytology
Local treatment for cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN) involves the removal of the affected part of the tissue and is >95% effective in preventing re-invasive disease. However, removal of part of the cervix is linked to significant adverse sequelae, including preterm birth; with cone depth …
