Unbound: An Origin Story
In Unbound, I embark on a semi-autobiographical quest, through which I reflect on the subject of a ‘myth of origin'. I rely on the two foundational yet competing epistemes that have been shaping my understanding of the concept throughout my life: On one end, the dogmatic Abrahamic mythology with …

Unbound linear operators in operator ranges
… we will for the most part be considering unbounded or closed linear operators instead of continuous everywhere defined linear operators. We will not be attempting to give exhaustive coverage of unbounded linear operators but will try to give some insight into the use of operator range …

Permanent Deformation Behaviour of Unbound Granular Materials in Pavement Constructions
… the risk level of permanent deformations in the unbound granular layers (UGL) in pavement constructions under consideration of the seasonal effects. From this data a serviceability limit line (plastic shakedown limit) stress boundary for the unbound granular materials (UGM) was defined for …

Unbound by Law: Association and Autonomy in the Early American Republic
This dissertation examines how the concept of voluntary membership evolved between the 1780s and the 1830s, a period in which men and women created thousands of groups seeking everything from fraternity to profit to social reform. Before observers foreign and domestic would begin to identify the …

Permanent deformation behavior of unbound granular materials and rutting model development
… was found to produce inadequate rut estimates in unbound aggregate base/subbase layers by discounting the contribution of stress state from the original Tseng and Lytton (1989) model. This research study was aimed at developing a new permanent deformation prediction model that would properly take …

Unbossed and Unbound: How can critical proximity transfigure British colonial moving images?
This research engages the Colonial Film Unit (CFU), and its history as the propaganda arm of the British Empire, to expose how the visioning technology of cinema and the archivisation of the CFU’s materials fuel the transformation of a racist colonial imaginary to fixed truths of the colonial black …

Prometheus unbound: quality of government and institutionalised grand corruption in public procurement
This PhD thesis looks at one of the most crucial determinants of state formation, quality of institutions, and social equality: institutionalised grand corruption. Institutionalised grand corruption denotes the particularistic allocation of public resources, that is violating prior explicit rules …

Shelley the Tragedian: Differing Modes of Catharsis in Prometheus Unbound and the Cenci
The primary purpose of this paper is to reflect on Percy B. Shelley’s understanding of catharsis, the most beneficial and sought after purpose of tragedies. Much of this thesis will also consider Shelley as a translator, to help better understand how Shelley viewed and understood the Greek texts. …

Reconstruction Unbound: American Worldviews In A Period of Promise and Conflict, 1865-1874
<p>In studying the United States' Reconstruction, historians have long devoted their energies to examining conflicts in and about the southern states. These conflicts, and the often brilliant literature devoted to them, cannot and should not be trivialized in understanding U.S. history during and …

Evaluation of the Potential Expansion Mechanisms of Bottom Ash in Unbound Sub-base Materials
… which could lead to expansion when used as an unbound granular fill<br/>This paper sets out the experimental results obtained from testing of the Incinerator Bottom Ash under several procedures. A literature review was carried out to determine the common characteristics of bottom ash, from the …

"Seeking 'Free Spaces Unbound': Six ""Mixed"" Female Adolescents Transact With Literature Depicting Biracial Characters"
Findings from this project offer the field new information about six biracial female adolescents' responses to biracial literature---how biracial female youth make their voices heard, express their beliefs, explore their world, and understand their position in the world through literacy. The …

Performance-based evaluation of unbound aggregates affecting mechanistic response and performance of flexible pavements
Unbound aggregates are widely used in road construction to replace unsuitable soil, prepare pavement working platform or construct pavement foundation layers. Their primary function in flexible pavements is to distribute wheel loads and provide adequate protection of the subgrade. However, the …

Analysis of Unbound Aggregate Layer Deformation Behavior From Full Scale Aircraft Gear Loading With Wander
Measured transverse profiles and multi-depth deflectometer data were used to create individual pass residual deformation transverse profiles. The created transverse profiles were then combined with stress history effects to predict the residual transverse profiles for all test sections. This new …

Teacher Capital Unbound? The Role of Organisational Structures for Teacher Social Capital and Student Outcome
… In other words, teacher social capital is unbound. In addition, teachers in work units have generally lower levels of human capital in terms of experience and tenure than subject department teachers. Yet they are more dependent on their human capital for improving student outcome. This …

Determination of total, unbound, and intracellular concentrations of the antiretroviral drugs Efavirenz, Lopinavir, and Ritonavir
… cells. In addition, the quantification of unbound efavirenz, lopinavir, and ritonavir from human plasma using ultracentrifugation is demonstrated, including a novel surrogate matrix. The two methods were validated according to the United States Food and Drug Administration and European …

Prometheus unbound : towards the more precise proscription of the socially undesirable market conduct associated with dominance
The regulation of the market conduct of dominant firms is an entrenched part of the competition laws in many jurisdictions. The conduct which such laws proscribe has been variously described as "abuse of dominance", "anticompetitive conduct", "monopolization" or "improper use of market power". Each …

Womanhood is Finally Unbound: The Impact of Disaffiliation from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Identity and Womanhood
Research suggests that disaffiliation from a religious organization brings a myriad of positive and negative consequences to those who choose to disaffiliate. This is the first study to examine the specific impact of disaffiliation on how women who have disaffiliated from the Church of Jesus Christ …
