On the Power Operations of MU
We study the power opearations of the spectrum $MU$, the complex cobordism theory. After reviewing necessary backgrounds, we start by recalling a formula from Justin Noel and Niles Johnson connecting the power operation $P([\mb{CP}^n])$ for $[\mb{CP}^n]\in MU^*$ with the power operation …

Orbifold genera, product formulas and power operations
… the orbifold elliptic genus of the symmetric powers of an almost complex manifold M in terms of the elliptic genus of M itself. We show that from the point of view of elliptic cohomology an analogous p-typical statement follows as an easy corollary from the fact that the map of spectra …

Power operations and central maps in representation theory
… of algebraic topology (specifically, Steenrod's operations and Smith's localization theory) to representation theory (especially in the context of the geometric Satake equivalence). In Chapter 2, we use Steenrod's construction to prove that the quantum Coulomb branch is a Frobenius-constant …

A small presentation for Morava E-theory power operations
… at a prime p and height h. We characterize the power operations on π0 of a K(h)-local E∞-E-algebra in terms of a small amount of algebraic data. This involves only the E-cohomology of two groups, namely the symmetric groups on p and p2 letters. Along the way, we also define and explore a notion …

Self-training artificial neural networks for risk reduction in nuclear power operations
… is established. The risk associated with nuclear power operations is characterized by sequences of discrete events, such as technical specification violation. The Barto-Sutton architecture has the capability to synthesize precursors to these events, and to synthesize mitigative control policies. …

Power Operations In The Kunneth And C_2-Equivariant Adams Spectral Sequences With Applications
<p>We construct Power operations in the K"unneth spectral sequence and the $C_2$ equivariant Adams spectral sequence. While the operations in the K"unneth spectral sequence are 0 in $Tor$, they still detect operations in the target of the spectral sequence. We then interpret these computations of …

Design of an ICRF fast matching system on Alcator C-Mod
… loading impedance limit flexible and robust high-power operations. In this thesis, novel solutions for real-time matching and reduction of these variations are investigated and studied for implementation on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak. Load tolerant prematching networks are reviewed and a prototype …

Deformations of homotopy theories via algebraic theories
… as to E-infinity rings with good theories of power operations. As an application, we give some tools for working with K(h)-local E-infinity algebras over a Lubin-Tate spectrum of height h, and use these to produce new E-infinity complex orientations at heights h <= 2.

The impact of INPO on plant performance and operations
… regulatory body, the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO), has on the nuclear industry. Understanding this information exchange sector is a step towards understanding the dynamics of reform in a high risk industry. This was done through creating a model of the information flow …

Analysis of Biomass/Coal Co-Gasification for Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) Systems with Carbon Capture
… (IGCC) has become more common in clean coal power operations with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). Great efforts have been spent on investigating ways to improve the efficiency, reduce costs, and further reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This study focuses on investigating two …

A Military Planning Methodology for Conducting Cyber Attacks on Power Grid
Power grids are regarded as significant military targets and have been targeted with kinetic attacks in previous military operations. These attacks resulted in significant levels of physical destruction, which, in the long-term, both undermined the success of the operations and caused severe …

Threat Assessment for Multistage Cyber Attacks in Smart Grid Communication Networks
In smart grids, managing and controlling power operations are supported by information and communication technology (ICT) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. The increasing adoption of new ICT assets in smart grids is making smart grids vulnerable to cyber threats, as well …

Ethics and affects: A critique of social intelligibility with Adorno, Butler and Spivak
… grounded analysis of social-political power. Finally, I suggest that by writing affective comportments into their work these thinkers produce stronger arguments in favor of social justice. I thus examine how these thinkers are able to use affect to make meaning that “sticks” more …

Safety Culture Monitoring: A Management Approach for Assessing Nuclear Safety Culture Health Performance Utilizing Multiple-Criteria Decision Analysis
<p>Nuclear power plants are among the most technologically complex of all energy facilities. This complexity reflects the precision needed in design, maintenance and operations to harness the energy of the atom safely, reliably and economically. Nuclear energy thus requires consistent, high levels …

Resource management and IP interoperability for low power wide area networks
Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs) such as LoRaWAN, Sigfox, and NBIoT present a novel communication paradigm, which complements the traditional short-range Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). LPWANs promise to provide wide-area connectivity (up to tens of kilometers) and low-power operations (up to …
