This manuscript demonstrates the well-posedness (existence, uniqueness, and regularity of solutions) of the Cauchy problem for simplified equations of nematic liquid crystal hydrodynamic flow in three dimensions for initial data that is uniformly locally L3(R3) integrable (L3U(R3)). The equations examined are a simplified version of the equations derived by Ericksen and Leslie. Background on the continuum theory of nematic liquid crystals and their flow is provided as are explanations of the related mathematical literature for nematic liquid crystals and the Navier–Stokes equations.

Det har dykt upp en mängd nya s.k. Hammondkloner på marknaden i försök att digitalt återskapa Hammondsoundet. Syftet med denna studie är att utforska om Hammondorgeln har ersatts av digitala Hammondkloner i musikutbildning på högskola, folkhögskola och inom privatundervisningen i Sverige. Studien genomfördes metodiskt med tre kvalitativa forskningsintervjuer och observation av två privatundervisningar i Hammondorgel. Resultatet är att det går att utbilda sig i att spela Hammondorgel B3 med Leslie 122 på högskola och inom privatundervisning i Sverige och att Hammondorgeln ännu inte har ersatts helt av Hammondkloner i undervisning i att spela Hammondorgel. Det är däremot ovisst huruvida man kan utbilda sig att spela riktig Hammondorgel på folkhögskola av det som framgår utav min forskning.

Leslie F. Ayres was an accomplished architect and architectural illustrator. His appreciation for and keen sense of art is apparent in his meticulous and poetic architectural illustrations. Mastering the skill of architectural drawing established Ayres as a designer, but he wasalso a builder. A successful architect, like Ayres, is both an artist and a builder, having the capability to guide a concept from design to construction. Leslie Ayres understood and valued this critical link needed to establish himself as a professional architect.He had a significant influence on the modern movement of architecture in Indiana, and a pioneering role of integrating gardens into his overall architectural designs. His designs utilized the functionalism of the modern movement, uniting the latest in building technologies: steel, concrete, and glass. However in contrast to many modernists, his designs would often reflect architecture based on precedents, incorporating Classical and traditional elements. Moreover, Ayres had a holistic approach to architecture that distinguished him from other modernist architects, in which every detail including light fixtures, interior finishes, and the surrounding landscape, related to the whole design idea. / Department of Architecture

This thesis will focus on two similarly positioned characters: Peggy Olson and Leslie Knope, both of whom are female characters who successfully navigate male-dominated workplaces. Using Bonnie Dow’s lifestyle feminist framework and critique of postfeminism, Sheryl Sandberg’s advice for women who wish to succeed in the workplace, and bell hooks feminist theory, I hope to use this thesis to locate Peggy and Leslie’s respective places in the tradition of feminism on television, and I will argue that describing characters like Peggy as “feminist” is outdated.
