Runaway indentured servants in Maryland, 1745-1760
… labor system as fairly rigid. An examination of runaway indentured servant advertisements in the Maryland Gazette reveals several factors prompting a different conclusion. A comparison of runaway servants to runaway slaves demonstrates certain similarities and differences between these two groups …

Runaway Film Production: A Critical History of Hollywood's Outsourcing Discourse
… dissertation critically examines the history of runaway production, from its introduction in postwar Hollywood to its present use in describing the development of highly competitive television and film production industries in Canada. From a political economic perspective, I argue that the …

Search for gamma-ray emission from bow shocks of runaway stars
… search for gamma-ray emission from bow shocks of runaway stars in the energy regime from 100MeV to ~100TeV. The search is performed with the large area telescope (LAT) on-board the Fermi satellite and the H.E.S.S. telescopes located in the Khomas Highland in Namibia. The Fermi-LAT was launched in …

Methodology for Pyrolysis-induced Thermal Runaway Analysis in Li-ion Batteries
As the adoption of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) grows due to the demand for highenergy density storage solutions, ensuring their safety becomes paramount. Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), which have traditionally been tools in polymer thermal analysis …

Experimental and Theoretical Study of Microwave Heating of Thermal Runaway Materials
… energy. One of these problems is called thermal runaway, which is a type of thermal instability due to the interaction between the electromagnetic waves and materials. As thermal runaway occurs, the temperature of the heated material rises uncontrollably. The normal consequence of thermal runaway …

Some characteristics of a group of coloured runaway boys aged 8 - 16 years and factors that these boys and their mother perceived as contributing to their runaway behavior
… demographic characteristics of the families, the runaway episodes and the causes for the runaway behaviour as perceived by the runaways and their mothers. The study revealed that multiple interrelated factors within the families, the boys and society seemed to contribute either directly or …

Multi-dimensional simulations of bow shocks of massive, high-velocity runaway stars
… supersonic collision of stellar winds ejected by runaway stars and the interstellar medium (ISM). Studying their properties provides constraints on mass-loss rates, stellar wind velocities and the properties of the ISM. In this work, we study the formation of bow shocks from stars at the tail end …

Experimental Testing and Numerical Modelling of Thermal Runaway in 18650 Lithium-Ion Batteries
… damaged or abused LIBs can undergo thermal runaway (TR), a rapid exothermic process causing high temperatures in seconds, and often resistant to conventional fire suppression systems. A deeper understanding of TR is vital for developing effective mitigation strategies. This research …

Role of electric field profiles in continuous microwave processing of thermal runaway materials
… the material problematic and can lead to thermal runaway. The research reported in this thesis uses numerical modeling to investigate the feasibility of temperature control for continuous microwave processing of thermal runaway materials, applied specifically to alumina and zirconia fibers. Using …

An Assessment on the Impact of Family Dynamics on the Runaway Problem Among Teenagers
… country with strong social cohesion, figures of runaway children in Turkey are increasing dramatically. This research focused on the factors that cause children to run away and on interaction programs to intervene and/or prevent this problem. Until recently, Turkish family life was able to avoid …

Analyzing Spectra of Type Iin Supernovae and their Host Environments To Determine If Some Arise From Runaway Progenitors
… An offset of 30 km/s or greater may imply a runaway progenitor star, ejected via dynamical interaction or as the mass-gaining companion of a binary star system where the primary explodes first. Signicant fractions of runaway progenitors would have an impact on our understanding of the …
