Evolving Technologies Shaping Public Transit
The transit industry is changing rapidly due to technology, which in turn changes business models, ridership, travel patterns, and the transit workforce. As transit agencies introduce new technology systems, research is needed on how these systems impact demand for paratransit and on-demand …

Annular Beam Shaping And Optical Trepanning
… are discussed. We have designed the annular beam shaping optical elements and the gas delivery system to construct an optical trepanning system. Laser drilling experiments are performed on the Stainless Steel-316 (SS 316) plate and the Inconel 718 (IN 718) plate. The geometry of the trepanning …

Basal constriction : shaping the vertebrate brain
Organs are primarily formed from epithelia, polarized sheets of cells with an apical surface facing a lumen and basal surface resting on the underlying extracellular matrix. Cells within a sheet are joined by junctions, and changes in cell shape and size drive epithelial bending and folding during …

Shaping of membranes by arc-like particles
… morphologies of organelles inside cells. The shaping of membranes is investigated with coarse-grained modeling and Monte Carlo simulations. In the coarse-grained model, the membrane is described as a discretized elastic surface, and the particles as segmented arcs. Concave arc-like particles, …

SHAPING ORGANIC SYNTHESIS WITH LIGHT-DRIVEN PROCESSES
The use of photons to perform photochemical transformations has become an important research topic. The selective and mild generation of highly reactive intermediates, such as radicals, has led to the development of synthetic methods active also on complex molecules. The presented thesis is divided …

The shaping of John Nelson Darby’s Eschatology
The Albury and Powerscourt prophetical conferences saw the birth of a new form of premillennial dispensationalism that has shaped evangelical eschatology ever since. It owed its debut to John Nelson Darby, who espoused the centrality of the “two peoples of God.” Dispensationalism affirmed three …

Vehicle Shaping for Mine Blast Damage Reduction
When a buried explosive is detonated beneath a target (such as a vehicle), the target is rapidly loaded by flying ejecta, high pressure gas, and shock waves. This paper explores how changes in the shape of the underside of a target affect the total impulse captured from the detonation of a buried …

Making roughness : shaping site at Granger Bay
This project is about "roughness" at all scales . It is about Landings: land and sea and Granger Bay. It is about deposition and erosion; heaving rubble and anchored shale. It is about a working "landschaft" of multiple overlapping contested uses. It is about abstracting natural forces to create …

Ozarkitecture: Shaping the Sense of a Region
Contemporary planning often invokes a “sense of place,” yet the deeper work of placemaking remains largely unfulfilled. In its absence, cities and regions fracture into landscapes that appear whole but feel hollow. These are spaces stripped of the sensory depth and symbolic meaning that make …
