Time, Unfolding
time, unfolding was written for performance in the 70th Annual Composers Conference at Wellesley College. It explores the slow unfolding of musical materials and how it affects our perception of musical time. The idea of “unfolding time” manifests itself into the composition, and shapes the way it …

Unfolding the act of photography
This thesis discusses the multifaceted status of the photograph, as a contribution to understanding the mechanics of the production of meaning within the photograph. In order to get a better view of how photographs function, I both revisit discourses that have dealt with medium specificity issues …

Unfolding genome organization in interphase
Genomic contact frequency maps obtained from high throughput chromosome conformation capture technologies have revealed several organizing patterns of mammalian interphase chromosomes, including self-interacting topologically associating domains (TADs) which are believed to function as coherent …

Energetics of substrate unfolding by ClpA
… we present two estimates of the free energy of unfolding (AGunfolding) for GFP-ssrA derived from thermal and chemical denaturation data. We find that GFP-ssrA is highly kinetically stable (tequil > 600 hrs.) and that AGunfolding = 0-2 kcal/mol. In addition, we show that ClpA retains its …

Unfolding the Rationale for Code Commits
One of the main reasons why developers investigate code history is to search for the rationale for code commits. Existing work found that developers report that rationale is one of the most important aspects to understand code changes and that it can be quite difficult to find. While this finding …

Biophysical studies of chromatin folding and unfolding
Chromatin, the building material of chromosomes, is folded and unfolded by several levels, providing a physical basis of coordinated DNA functions in eukaryotic cells. Chromatin folding is started with a linear long string of nucleosomes, connected by segments of DNA called linker DNA. Further …

Edge-unfolding almost-flat convex polyhedral terrains
… we consider the centuries-old question of edge-unfolding convex polyhedra, focusing specifically on edge-unfoldability of convex polyhedral terrain which are "almost at" in that they have very small height. We demonstrate how to determine whether cut-trees of such almost-at terrains unfold and …

HIF, HAPE, and Hilltop rats: a paradox unfolding
Hilltop rats develop a pathological syndrome resembling chronic mountain sickness (CMS) in humans. Manifestations of CMS include polycythemia, pulmonary vascular remodeling, pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular hypertrophy. Paradoxically, Hilltop rats are more resistant to acute hypoxic …

An Unfolding Voyage: Rephotography and the Challenger Expedition
Setting sail from Portsmouth in 1872, the British scientific research vessel HMS Challenger undertook a three-and-a-half-year voyage to further scientific understanding of the world’s oceans. In addition to surveying responsibilities, the expedition and its crew were charged with obtaining …

On folding and unfolding with linkages and origami
… and origami, investigating their folding/unfolding behaviors and the computational complexity thereof. In Chapter 2, we exactly settle the complexity of realizability, rigidity, and global rigidy for graphs and linkages in the plane, even when the graphs are (1) promised to avoid crossings …

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Force-Induced Protein Domain Unfolding
Force-induced protein domain unfolding has been studied by steered molecular dynamics simulations (SMD). Two pulling protocols were adopted in the simulation. SMD with constant velocity pulling protocol qualitatively reproduced atomic force microscopy (AFM) observation that immunoglobulin and …

An Item Response Unfolding Model for Graphic Rating Scales
… mark is taken as the measure. An item response unfolding model is proposed to analyze the bounded continuous data collected with the graphic rating scale. The model has both location and dispersion parameters, and the item response function is developed based on the truncated normal density. The …

Unfolding time : a projective model for the moving image
Humanity's desire to record events happening in time has spawned a lineage of moving-image transcription systems, from early cinematographs to contemporary digital camcorder equipment. These technologies have arisen, however, amongst a setting of concentrated discourse surrounding the nature of …

Fully Soft-Switching Modulation Methods for SRC-Unfolding Inverter
Isolated inverters feature the freedom in voltage step-up/down, electrical safety, and modularity. Among them, pseudo-dc-link inverters have the advantage of high efficiency due to their single-stage structure. Traditionally, pseudo-dc-link inverters are based on pulse-width-modulated converters, …

Multi-domain Protein Unfolding Pathway Studies by Single Molecule Techniques
… to enable us to capture the progress of the unfolding front along the host protein structure. In this way, the structural origin of the signal from single molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) based on atomic force microscopy (AFM) can be directly identified. Beyond this published work, I also …

Thermal unfolding dynamics of proteins probed by nonlinear infrared spectroscopy
… spectroscopic approaches to study the thermal unfolding dynamics of proteins. The spectroscopic tool is nonlinear infrared (IR) spectroscopy of the protein amide I band. Among various nonlinear IR techniques, two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) spectroscopy, which is an IR analogue of 2D NMR, is …
