Tension in Play
Tension in Play is a thesis paper detailing context and methodology surrounding my artwork from the past 2 years while pursing a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Washington. I recall specific memories from working within the service industry that act as the context to multiple artworks in …

Overturning of No-Tension Towers
… is assumed to be incapable of withstanding tension, thus anticipating a progressive fracturing to occur outside the compressive zone of masonry towers as they incline under the force of self-weight alone. A theoretical model for the analysis of rectangular towers is extended to cylindrical …

Tension Control In Narrow Fabric Weaving
… All of these techniques require a degree of yarn tension control for a good quality fabric because advanced fibres are easily damaged by excessive yarn tension. The cause of the sensitivity of advanced fibres to tension is their low extension. Textile industry standard yarns have extensions of 5% …

Computer-aided design of tension structures
… of the basis for the numerical modelling of tension structures. The discussion in Part I leads to the conclusion of a need for an interactive design procedure for tension structures which is the subject under consideration in Part II (chapters 5-7). In the design of tension structures, an …

A review of the Hubble tension
… 4.2σ. Despite improvements in precision, this tension has increased. This thesis studies these two measurements, as well as various other H0 determinations, which are independent of both the CMB and the SNIa distance ladder and corroborate the Hubble tension (with the caveat that many have …

Easing the Arctic tension an economic solution
Climate change in the Arctic is affecting the ice melt more rapidly than previously anticipated and the Arctic is now forecast to be ice-free by 2013. International borders, fossil fuel reservoirs and new sea routes for navigation are just a few of the issues at stake due to the receding ice cover. …

Optimization of Conformal Joints in Axial Tension
<p>Electromagnetic forming uses high current to form conductive material. It has been a possible manufacturing technique for joining materials since the 1960s. In the past decade the process has seen a resurgence due to the desire for lightweight manufacturing. The process provides a means to join …

Surface tension: permeability, the body, and installation
Surface Tension – Permeability, the Body, and Installation, is comprised of a multimedia installation and an accompanying minor thesis. The concurrent points of departure for both are the body and the medium of installation itself, exploring their sympathies with the lens of permeability. The …
