Tracks
The light table is conceived of and assembled as a series of layered pieces, each locking the previous one in place. A maple frame, finger-jointed at the corners, is rimmed by a wider walnut base (1) which supports the panel housing the electrical components. The panel itself is laminated create …

Dynamics of storm tracks
… this study is to explore the dynamics of storm tracks in the context of a three-layer hemispheric linear-balanced model. We establish first how the instability properties of the relevant background circulation might be related to the observed storm tracks. We examine next how the topography …

Playing on the tracks
Compositional rules have been proposed as the generating mechanisms of form in architectural treatises since Vitruvius. Recently, computational approaches to architecture have pursued a language for rulebuilding rather than the rules themselves. However, architects have resisted adopting …

The Other Side of the Tracks
… infrastructure on a site. Roads, train tracks and sewers allows for efficient transportation and a measure of control over the elements; yet it does so with little sensitivity to the uniqueness of a place, local physical or historical connections and the natural processes that contribute …

Improving Recording and Interpretation of Fossil Tracks
… yet the recording and measurement of the tracks and the subsequent interpretation to characterise the track-maker is problematic. The fossil sites are susceptible to extreme cases of erosion, often resulting in the destruction of the fossil beds. In this project, a series of experiments …

Printing conductive ink tracks on textile materials
… case for the double layer conductive ink tracks by silkscreen where the resistance acquired shows a satisfactory result as expected. A micro-structure analysis shows the surface finish for the single layer conductive inks tracks were not good enough compared to the double conductive ink …

An expert system for processing uncorrelated satellite tracks.
… and optical cameras, the United States military tracks objects in near and far Earth orbit. The sensors provide epoch and ephemeris information that is used to update a database of known objects. While a majority of the sensor observations are matched to their corresponding satellites, a small …

Ethics in Kakadu (1988): Finding Djilile’s “True Tracks”
… copyright lawyer Dr. Terri Janke’s <em>True Tracks: Respecting Indigenous Knowledge and Culture</em> (2021) model and framework for respectful cultural exchange. The previous defenses of Sculthorpe’s work need to be re-examined in order to fit a more modern standard of respectful cultural …

Beyond the Tracks: A History of Cheatham Street Warehouse
Since opening its doors as a music venue in 1974, Cheatham Street Warehouse has been an important facet in the development of Texas songwriters and country music. Although Cheatham Street was opened with the tradition of historical Texas dancehalls and honky-tonks in mind, the tin warehouse has …

East of the Tracks: Grassroots Environmentalism in South Mississippi
<p>Environmental justice literature challenges the disparity and oppression regarding the quality of life associated with residential environments among communities of color. Recent disasters, such as hurricane Katrina, the Tennessee coal sludge disaster (December 2008), and the BP Oil Spill (2010) …

Basic dynamics of low-frequency variability and the storm tracks
… this thesis is a study of the dynamics of storm tracks from the perspective of local instability of a class of zonally inhomogeneous basic jet streams. An unstable local mode consists of a group of dominant waves which jointly give rise to a maximum local energy downstream of the jet core. Its …

Extratropical storm tracks and the mean state of the atmosphere
… are uncertain. The extratropical storm tracks, regions of frequent extratropical cyclones, dominate weather in the extratropics, affecting the lives and livelihoods of billions of people. The results presented in this thesis connect changes in the mean state of the atmosphere to changes …

Reconstructing nuclear recoil tracks in the Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber
Astrophysical evidence indicates that 23% of our universe's energy density is in the form of nonluminous, nonbaryonic matter referred to as dark matter. One theoretically appealing dark matter candidate is the Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). Because of astrophysical dynamics, the …

Fuel benefit from optimal trajectory assignment on the North Atlantic tracks
The North Atlantic Tracks represent one of the highest density international traffic regions in the world. Due to the lack of high-resolution radar coverage over this region, the tracks are subject to more restrictive operational constraints than flights over the continental U.S. Recent initiatives …

Aircraft noise modeling of dispersed flight tracks and metrics for assessing impacts
… to aircraft being able to fly designed flight tracks very precisely. This has led to communities citing the concentration of aircraft along one flight track as a noise issue because of the frequent overflights above specific areas. In order to assess the impact of frequent overflights, metrics …
