Noncommutative Complete Isolated Singularities
Commutative local isolated singularities are a class of rings that have been studied extensively. Much work has been devoted in the area of noncommutative algebra in generalizing the notion of an isolated singularity for graded rings. However, one maintains a desire to directly adapt the notion of …

Flow over finite isolated topography
… models are used to study flow over axisymmetric isolated topography. Inviscid or nearly inviscid flow in which non-linear effects have order one importance is considered, and both the effects of β and finite topography are included. A one-layer quasi-geostrophic model is used to find the shape of …

Discrete HMM isolated digit recognition
This research develops an algorithm to perform isolated word recognition. A detailed description of the recognition system is presented in this thesis. We discuss detection of a spoken word from a recording using an end-point algorithm, extraction of the feature vectors from the sampled speech …

Performance Optimizations for Isolated Driver Domains
… device drivers can be executed in separate, isolated virtual machines, called driver domains. Such domains provide the same level of isolation to device drivers as operating systems provide to user level applications. Domain-based isolation has the advantage that it is compatible with …

Isolated Architecture: Finding Solidarity In Isolation
… points throughout the site and provide an isolated, natural experience for self-reflection. The hearth will be the area for communal gatherings and to share ideas and experiences found through isolation.

Pressure-Induced Intracellular Signaling in Isolated Arteries
… of mechanotransduction by utilizing the isolated artery preparation. This preparation allows for the study of vascular smooth muscle signal transduction in response to physiologically relevant stimuli under controlled conditions. In this regard, this study will relate the ability of …

Study of viruses isolated in the tropics
… of the properties and epidemiology of viruses isolated in Africa. Investigations of the epidemiology of yellow fever and of new methods of vaccinating against it are described in the first series of papers. These yellow fever studies led incidentally to the recovery of several previously …

Platelet phenotype distinguishes ITP from isolated thrombocytopenia
Platelets orchestrate haemostasis through receptor-mediated adhesion, aggregation, and secretion. Platelet dysfunction can lead to bleeding and/or clotting disorders but is challenging to diagnose clinically. This thesis focuses on immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a disorder marked by immune-mediated …

Crystallization of Isolated Amorphous Zones in Semiconductors
Software was developed to detect, measure and track individual amorphous zones throughout a series of irradiation micrographs. Characteristic zone shrinkage behaviors were observed. A simple shrinkage model suggests that the defects responsible for regrowth are created very near the …

Symplectic circle actions with isolated fixed points
… a closed symplectic manifold $M$ with non-empty isolated fixed points. Associated to each fixed point, there are well-defined non-zero integers, called \emph{weights}. We prove that the action is Hamiltonian if the sum of an odd number of weights is never equal to the sum of an even number of …

Optimal design strategies for base-isolated bridges
Base isolation of bridges provides an excellent defense against the damaging effects of earthquakes. For this design strategy, flexible supports are placed between the deck and substructure. This changes the lowest periods of vibration of the bridge and shifts it to a period where little energy is …

Symplectic toric stratified spaces with isolated singularities
… and symplectic toric stratified spaces with isolated singularities. Both types of object are classified via orbital moment map and a second degree cohomology class. As symplectic toric stratified spaces with isolated singularities are locally modeled on symplectic toric cones, we first focus …

Local complex singularity exponents for isolated singularities
… holomorphic functions whose zero sets have only isolated singularities. For a given holomorphic function f defined on a neighborhood of the origin in C[to the power of]n, the lcse c[sub]0(f) is defined as the supremum of all positive real number [lambda] for which 1/[magnitude of]f[to the power …
