Diagonal Ranks of SemigroupsBarkov, Ilia January 2013 (has links)
We introduce the notion of diagonal ranks of semigroups,which are numerical characteristics of semigroups. Some base propertiesof diagonal ranks are obtained. A new criterion for a monoidbeing a group is obtained using diagonal ranks.For some semigroup classes we investigate whether their diagonal acts are finitely generatedor not. For the semigroups of full transformations, partial transformations andbinary relations we find the general form of the generating pairs.

Diagonal Orbits in Double Flag VarietiesJanuary 2020 (has links)
archives@tulane.edu / Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group. We study the inclusion posets of diagonal G-orbit closures in a product of two partial flag varieties. In this dissertation, we show some results for G=SL_n and G=SO_{2n}. If the diagonal action is of complexity zero, then the poset is a graded lattice. If the diagonal action is of complexity one, then the poset is isomorphic to one of a finite number of posets that we determine explicitly. / 1 / Tien Minh Le

An Improvement for the Detection of Dominant Points on Digital CurveChen, Kao-Sheng 22 July 2004 (has links)
In our research, we propose two improve methods for detection of dominant points for a digitized curve. Instead of setting a fixed length of support region, it will compute the suitable length of support region for each point to find the best approximated curvature.
First, the symmetric region of support for each point on curve is determined using diagonal value. The points with local maximum averaging diagonal value can be located as the dominant points on the curve.
Second, the improve method uses an optimal criterion for determining the asymmetric region of support of each boundary point, and a new mechanism for selecting the dominant points.

Diagonal Tension Testing of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block PanelsPringle, Sean Anthony 01 June 2016 (has links)
This thesis examines the use of diagonal tension (shear) testing to determine factors affecting shear strength of Interlocking Compressed Earth Block (ICEB) panels. This work expands on the current information available about strength properties of ICEB assemblies, which are dry-stacked, as opposed to having mortared beds. Variables such as block strength, grout strength and grouting pattern can influence the results of these types of tests and are examined in this investigation.
To study variables affecting diagonal shear strength, 9 panels were tested, consisting of blocks produced by a manual block press. Strength testing was adopted from common ASTM standards to determine constituent material properties. A modified version of ASTM E519 test procedure is used to perform diagonal tension testing. Imaging analysis, using a high resolution camera, was run simultaneously during testing to capture displacement histories of select panels.
It was determined that both block and grout strength significantly affect the shear strength of ICEB panels. Additionally, vertical grouting and block type also have a strong influence. Imaging analysis results confirm that the dominant failure mode in ICEB panels is bed joint sliding both pre and post peak load, with noticeable displacements at head joint locations on a few panels. Lastly, diagonal cracking along the block face was noticeable on several panels following peak load. Further testing remains to determine other factors affecting shear strength, namely, the application of normal pre-compression loads to the panel.

Diagonal Representation of the Doubly Stochastic LimitDatta, Biswanath 04 1900 (has links)
The main result of this thesis is the following theorem. If A is a non-negative symmetric matrix, then there exists a diagonal matrix D such that D A D is doubly stochastic, if and only if A has total support. The relevant theory is discussed and some other results of similar nature are also obtained, including a sufficient and necessary condition for the uniqueness of D above. / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc)

Applicability of Semi-Tension Fields to the Back Panel of a Pick-Up TruckTangirala, Shubha S 13 December 2003 (has links)
The study and design of light-weight automobiles has emerged as an important area of interest in the government, academia, and the manufacturing industry. Significant advances in vehicle weight reduction technologies have taken place in almost all fields of transportation. Weight reduction is identified as a key factor to achieving fuel-economy, energy efficiency and environmental safety. The main objective of this thesis is to investigate cost effective design methodologies that enable fabrication of light weight structures, which subsequently result in a fuel saving. A few important techniques and trends of weight reduction in the automotive industry over the past few years are studied as part of the thesis. A summary from the survey of various approaches to weight reduction is presented in the literature review. This thesis is based on the theory of semi-tension fields, which was originally applied towards the design of structures in the aircraft industry. A semi-tension field is a post buckling phenomenon in which the load is continued to be carried even after the web has buckled. The advantage of semi-tension fields is twoold: first, by using this theory the structural stability of the original structure is retained; and secondly, its application replaces a comparatively heavy-weight shear resistant web with a thin web, potentially resulting in reduced weight. The semi-tension field theory is applied to the redesign of back panel of a prototype Ford F-150 pick up truck, which was modeled and analyzed using IDEAS Master Series 8 FEA software. The literature review also consists of the survey of several advances in the Semi-tension fields theory, and the corresponding trends in weight reduction. Analytical theories related to semi-tension field-based design and the respective mathematical formulations have also been described. Finite element analyses of the design that resulted from the application of the theory were carried out and results were validated using analytical theories. A technical paper demonstrating the redesign of a door beam was also studied and results are presented as an appendix.
