Performance evaluation of spanning systems
The design of spanning systems is a common task that structural engineers perform, and beam theory is one of the first things taught in a mechanics course. This thesis studies a range of spanning systems, and evaluates their performance in a systematic way. The systems considered are beams, …

SPANNING Between Structure and Nature
… Tech campus is a 420-foot-long structure spanning from earth to water. Along a steel-glass bridge, three simple volumes play together to achieve the functions of the student union. There is an order among Nature, Architecture, and People in this project. Simple geometric forms and the …

Faster generation of random spanning trees
… for generating approximately uniformly random spanning trees in undirected graphs. We show how to sample from a distribution that is within a multiplicative (1+6) of uniform in expected time ... . This improves the sparse graph case of the best previously known worst-case bound of O(min{mn, n2. …

Relative Khovanov-Jacobsson Classes for Spanning Surfaces
<p>We define the Khovanov-Jacobsson class for a properly embedded surface in the 4-ball, an element of the Khovanov homology of its boundary link in the 3-sphere. We then develop general non-triviality criteria for Khovanov homology classes, and use these to distinguish the Khovanov-Jacobsson …

Approximating Average Bounded-Angle Minimum Spanning Trees
… networks, we study average bounded-angle minimum spanning trees. Let P be a set of points in the plane and let α be an angle. An α-spanning tree (α-ST) of P is a spanning tree of the complete Euclidean graph induced by P with the restriction that all edges incident to each point p in P lie in a …

Octave-spanning lasers for optical metrology applications
This thesis describes the first octave-spanning frequency comb based on a prismless, Ti:sapphire laser. It covers in detail the design and construction of the laser system, as well as the electronic stabilization scheme used to control the frequencies of the mode comb. The system developed is …

Towards a renaissance of curved spanning structures
Today, as always, there is a great need for expressiveness in design. There are a multitude of forms which, over the years, have been stripped from the designer's repertoire in the name of economics. There exists a sub-group amongst the lost forms which can be categorized under the heading, "Curves …

Developing boundary-spanning relationships : learning through success stories
… do successful professionals cultivate boundary-spanning relationships to develop professional goods; and what lessons can be drawn from their successes? This study uses grounded theory to interpret qualitative interview data from four expert networkers to help demonstrate how successful people …

A Quantitative Interpretation of Five Puritan Preachers Spanning Four Generations
… A quantitative study of five Puritan preachers spanning four generations proves that Puritans defy blanket generalizations and command individual interpretation. Puritans, even of the same generation, cannot always be interpreted in the same way. This Puritan individualism grew out of the …

Labeled Trees and Spanning Trees: Computational Discrete Mathematics and Applications
… second part, we consider the question of finding spanning trees under various restrictions is studied. A “dense” tree, from graph theoretical point of view, has small total distances between vertices and large number of substructures. In this thesis, the “density” of a spanning tree is …

Informal boundary-spanning links and networks in successful technological innovation
… important role played by the personal boundary-spanning relationships of engineers and scientists as a channel for the transference of such inputs. However, research concerning the role and nature of personal boundary-spanning links in the innovation process have either been primarily …

Incremental information content of cash flow variables: A spanning approach
… on the economic model, a new methodology, the spanning portfolio approach is used to extract the information contained in the accounting measures of cash flow. This issue is first examined by testing for an association between actual security returns and spanning returns of alternative cash …

A CONTENT ANALYSIS SPANNING 30 YEARS OF MENTAL HEALTH COMMUNICATION SCHOLARSHIP
Currently, the communication research concerning mental health is sporadic, unorganized, and disintegrated. Previous research has not looked at organizing the literature through content analysis. To address this gap in the literature, the purpose of this thesis is to provide a comprehensive …
