Development of a Higher-Order Ice Sheet Model Using a Rescaled Coordinate System
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has estimated between 9 and 88 cm of sea level rise over the next hundred years. Of this, only negative 19 to 11 cm is attributed to the largest ice masses on the planet, the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets. Over the last decade, dramatic …

Shear-free perfect fluid theorems in general relativity
… parallel to the vorticity, the components of a rescaled acceleration vector field orthogonal to the vorticity are basic and the case where the dot product of the rescaled acceleration vector field and the unit vorticity vector is basic, leading to the existence of a Killing vector along the …

Spectral properties of the random conductance model
… We further prove weak convergence of the rescaled eigenvalues to non-degenerate random variables. Our proofs are based on a spatial extreme value analysis of the local speed measure, Borel-Cantelli arguments, the Rayleigh-Ritz formula, results from percolation theory, path arguments and …

Open strings in the cotangent bundle and Morse homotopy
… the graphs of the differential of the functions rescaled by an [epsilon] >/= 0. For a generic choice of the functions, we prove that, for E small enough, there exists a one to one correspondence between the J holomorphic curves and the planar Morse graphs of the functions.

Large-eddy simulation of turbulent wall-pressure fluctuations using the finite element method
… within the computational domain is recycled and rescaled propriately, and re-introduced at the inlet of the domain at every time step iteration. In the proposed method, the mean velocity profile is fixed at the inlet while the velocity fluctuations are recycled and rescaled to obtain the desired …

The Scaling of Power in West Cumbria and the Role of the Nuclear Industry
… In particular, this thesis analyses how power is rescaled in the context of state restructuring and the wider changes associated with globalisation. To be able to analyse power it was necessary to develop an applied understanding of the concept. This is informed by a diverse literature, and takes …

Studies of hydrophobic organic pollutant interactions with cyclodextrin: implication for groundwater remediation
… coefficient and constant of apparent and rescaled Freundlich isotherms was determined by the nonlinear regression of versus total aqueous concentration and free water phase concentration,respectively. Our results showed that in aqueous CD solutions, the adsorption to GAC decreased with …

Towards federated learning over large-scale streaming data
… of the 'elasticity' hyper-parameter for rescaled computing environments. We estimate this elasticity hyper-parameter using reinforcement learning. Our empirical benchmarks show that ORCA is capable of achieving an MSE of 0.038 over real-world streaming datasets.

Thick points of random walk and multiplicative chaos
… of thick points. In particular, we show that the rescaled number of thick points converges to a nondegenerate random variable and that the centred maximum of the local times converges to a randomly shifted Gumbel distribution. Next, we construct the analogue of Gaussian multiplicative chaos …

A Statistical Study of Hard X-Ray Solar Flares
… an analysis of the data distributions and the Rescaled Range (R/S) Method, sometimes referred to as "Hurst's method". Chapter one provides an introduction to hard x-ray flares within the context of the solar environment and a summary of the statistical paradigms solar astronomers currently work …

Asymptotic description of the formation of black holes from short-pulse data
… a desingularized manifold and an associated rescaled tangent bundle (which we call the "short-pulse tangent bundle") on which the putative solution remains regular. We prove the existence of a solution solving the vacuum Einstein equations formally at each boundary face of the blown-up …

Rest Area Wilderness Experience: Reimagining the Design of Rest Areas on Interstate 64
… to understand how the idea of wilderness can be rescaled and rethought to allow for its benefits to be more attainable within common and accessible areas. Interstate rest areas provide an excellent subject to study how a wilderness experience can be designed within an area not typically …

Investigating the role of molecular motors on chromatin organization
… by effective equilibrium models with rescaled temperatures and interactions, when using a perturbation theory. We further constructed a unifying model to illustrate the construction of nucleosome positioning pattern during transcription. In three dimensions, we realized the …

"Fragile bilinguals: rescaling ""good"" and ""bad"" South Korean bilinguals"
… how such tensions have been reconstructed and rescaled in society, and how individuals participate in the process of developing sense-making discourses (Heller & Duchêne, 2012) in order to secure their positions and marginalize ‘other’ English speakers (e.g., Agha, 2003; Inoue, 2006).

The stochastic operator approach to random matrix theory
… structured random matrix models, appropriately rescaled, are finite difference approximations to stochastic differential operators. Specifically, as the size of one of these matrices approaches infinity, it looks more and more like an operator constructed from either the Airy operator, ..., or …

Neural Encoding of Prior Experience in Sensorimotor Behavior
… across populations of neurons are precisely rescaled in time to match the statistical mean of a learned temporal distribution, in accordance with predictive processing. Second, I show that the structure of the underlying neural representation implements the effect of a Bayesian prior, and …

CT3 as an Index of Knowledge Domain Structure: Distributions for Order Analysis and Information Hierarchies
… the time. The last major finding is that CT3, rescaled to range between 0 and 1, supports De Vellis' guidelines for reliability measures. The major conclusion is that CT3 is a better measure of reliability since it considers both inter- and intra-item variances.
