Clearly impossible : Constructing the phantom
How can light and space influence our consciousness and the shape of the perception? Dematerialization is a mean to alter our perception to this physical world -- Materials lose their sense of solidity and lights reconstruct the surfaces of the space and objects. This thesis project is to visually …

Motion Phantom Development for MRI
… well as build instructions for the Martinos head phantom which moves in four degrees of freedom (linear translation in the plane parallel to the floor, a head shaking "no" motion, and a head nodding "yes" motion) independently of one another to limited success. Only the translation in direction …

From phantom blocks to denudational noise
… seemingly intact, though intensely shattered, phantom blocks of the catastrophically fragmented basal facies of giant rockslides up to denudational noise in orogen-wide data sets averaging over several millennia. This great variety of spatiotemporal scales of denudation rates is both boon and …

The Astonishing Phantom and Other Works
<p>My thesis is a collection of fiction and creative nonfiction works that explore the theme of grief—how it manifests, how it informs identity, and the relationships that can emerge therefrom. In this thesis, I use fiction as a medium through which to investigate how grief affects people of …

Phantom jam Sybil attack in connected vehicular networks
Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) are vulnerable to Sybil attacks, mostly due to the lack of encryption in BSMs. In VANETs, multiple digital certificates (pseudonyms) are assigned to each vehicle to ensure their privacy. However, malicious nodes can exploit these pseudonyms to create ghost …

Demand bubbles and phantom orders in supply chains
Essay One The Impact of Shortages on Push-Pull Production Systems This paper explores the impact of endogenous customer demand on supply chain instability. It investigates how a semiconductor manufacturer's hybrid push-pull production system responds to customer demand, when inventory availability …

Generating Gaseous Emboli Mimics in an ECMO Flow Phantom
… the results to. We aim to construct a flow phantom that fills these gaps. We build upon prior work on this project by mixing a translucent fluid that mimics the acoustic and rheological properties of blood. We explore various bubble generation designs and produce gaseous emboli mimics with …

Phantom work : design iteration timing in new product development
… iteration cycles can cause the creation of "phantom errors" and unnecessary rework as concurrent design activities iterate at different speeds. In this research, I use a system dynamics approach to develop a stylized simulation model of the design-build-test iteration cycle to explore the …

A Low-cost Microvascular Phantom for Photoacoustic Imaging Using Loofah
<p>Existing photoacoustic phantoms are inadequate for mimicking the complex microvascular structures found in human tissue due to their inability to replicate varying sizes and distri- butions of vasculature. This limitation underscores the need for a new material capable of replicating intricate …

Ghost Kingdoms and Phantom Worlds: Narrative strategies in adoptee autofiction
In this thesis, I investigate Betty Jean Lifton’s theory of the Ghost Kingdom as it appears in adoptee-written narratives. Lifton describes the Ghost Kingdom as a “psychic reality” where what-if projections of lost or wished for persons (often conceptualized as characters) reside. Her theory …
