Practice Makes Practice : 10,000 Hours Later and a Great Deal WiserSt. John, Kate January 2019 (has links)
This paper is a in depth review of a designer’s process over the course of three years of graduate school, culminating in a scenic design for Side Show. A narrative account of a design from early stages through final evaluation, this essay hardly resembles a thesis paper at all. With Side Show as a framework through which the author traces improvement in craft skills, design thinking, and critical evaluation, she offers supporting evidence in the form of drawings, draftings, models, and research. In addition to these relevant design materials, the designer presents proofs of her own personal growth, both as a student and as a designer. / Theater

Computational Studies of Protonated Cyclic Ethers and Benzylic Organolithium CompoundsDeora, Nipa 22 June 2010 (has links)
Protonated epoxides feature prominently in organic chemistry as reactive intermediates. Gas-phase calculations studying the structure and ring-opening energetics of protonated ethylene oxide, propylene oxide and 2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane were performed at the B3LYP and MP2 levels (both with the 6-311++G** basis set). Structural analyses were performed for 10 protonated epoxides using B3LYP, MP2, and CCSD/6-311++G** calculations. Protonated 2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane was the most problematic species studied, where relative to CCSD, B3LYP consistently overestimates the C2-O bond length. The difficulty for DFT methods in modeling the protonated isobutylene oxide is due to the weakness of this C2-O bond. Protonated epoxides featuring more symmetrical charge distribution and cyclic homologues featuring less ring strain are treated with greater accuracy by B3LYP.
Ion-pair separation (IPS) of THF-solvated fluorenyl, diphenylmethyl, and trityl lithium was studied computationally. Minimum-energy equilibrium geometries of explicit mono, bis and tris-solvated contact ion pairs (CIPs) and tetrakis-sovlated solvent separated ion pair (SSIPs) were modeled at B3LYP/6-31G*. Associative transition structures linking the tris-solvated CIPs and tetrakis-solvated SIPs were also located. In vacuum, B3LYP/6-31G* ΔHIPS values are 6-8 kcal/mol less exothermic than the experimentally-determined values in THF solution. Incorporation of secondary solvation in the form of Onsager and PCM single-point calculations showed an increase in exothermicity of IPS. Application of a continuum solvation model (Onsager) during optimization at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory produced significant changes in the Cα-Li contact distances in the SSIPs. An increase in of ion pair separation exothermicity was observed upon using both PCM and Onsager solvation models, highlighting the importance of both explicit and implicit solvation in modeling of ion pair separation. / Ph.

Digital to Analog Converter Design using Single Electron TransistorsPerry, Jonathan 04 August 2005 (has links)
CMOS Technology has advanced for decades under the rule of Moore's law. But all good things must come to an end. Researchers estimate that CMOS will reach a lower limit on feature size within the next 10 to 15 years. In order to assure further progress in the field, new computing architectures must be investigated. These nanoscale architectures are many and varied. It remains to be seen if any will become a legitimate successor to CMOS.
Single electron tunneling is a process by which electrons can be trans- ported (tunnel) across a thin insulating surface. A conducting island sepa rated by a pair of quantum tunnel junctions creates a Single Electron Transistor (SET). SETs exhibit higher functionality than traditional MOSFETs, and function best at very small feature sizes, in the neighborhood of 1nm.
Many circuits must be developed before SETs can be considered a viable contender to CMOS technology. One important circuit is the Digital to Analog Converter (DAC). DACs are present on many microprocessors and microcontrollers in use today and are necessary in many situations. While other SET circuits have been proposed, including ADCs, no DAC design exists in open literature.
We propose three possible SET DAC designs and characterize them with an HSPICE SET simulation model. The first design is a charge scaling architecture similar to what is frequently used in CMOS. The second two designs are based on a current steering architecture, but are unique in their implementation with SETs. / Master of Science

Phencyclidine (PCP)-induced disruption in cognitive performance is gender-specific and associated with a reduction in brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in specific regions of the female rat brainSnigdha, S., Neill, Joanna C., McLean, Samantha, Shemar, G.K., Cruise, L., Shahid, M., Henry, B. 18 September 2010 (has links)
Yes / Phencyclidine (PCP), used to mimic certain aspects of schizophrenia, induces sexually dimorphic, cognitive deficits in rats. In this study, the effects of sub-chronic PCP on expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a neurotrophic factor implicated in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia, have been evaluated in male and female rats. Male and female hooded-Lister rats received vehicle or PCP (n = 8 per group; 2 mg/kg i.p. twice daily for 7 days) and were tested in the attentional set shifting task prior to being sacrificed (6 weeks post-treatment). Levels of BDNF mRNA were measured in specific brain regions using in situ hybridisation. Male rats were less sensitive to PCP-induced deficits in the extra-dimensional shift stage of the attentional set shifting task compared to female rats. Quantitative analysis of brain regions demonstrated reduced BDNF levels in the medial prefrontal cortex (p < 0.05), motor cortex (p < 0.01), orbital cortex (p < 0.01), olfactory bulb (p < 0.05), retrosplenial cortex (p < 0.001), frontal cortex (p < 0.01), parietal cortex (p < 0.01), CA1 (p < 0.05) and polymorphic layer of dentate gyrus (p < 0.05) of the hippocampus and the central (p < 0.01), lateral (p < 0.05) and basolateral (p < 0.05) regions of the amygdaloid nucleus in female PCP-treated rats compared with controls. In contrast, BDNF was significantly reduced only in the orbital cortex and central amygdaloid region of male rats (p < 0.05). Results suggest that blockade of NMDA receptors by sub-chronic PCP administration has a long-lasting down-regulatory effect on BDNF mRNA expression in the female rat brain which may underlie some of the behavioural deficits observed post PCP administration.

On non-archimedean dynamical systemsJoyner, Sheldon T 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MSc) -- University of Stellenbosch, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A discrete dynamical system is a pair (X, cf;) comprising a non-empty set X and a map
cf; : X ---+ X. A study is made of the effect of repeated application of cf; on X, whereby points
and subsets of X are classified according to their behaviour under iteration. These subsets
include the JULIA and FATOU sets of the map and the sets of periodic and preperiodic
points, and many interesting questions arise in the study of their properties.
Such questions have been extensively studied in the case of complex dynamics, but much
recent work has focussed on non-archimedean dynamical systems, when X is projective
space over some field equipped with a non-archimedean metric. This work has uncovered
many parallels to complex dynamics alongside more striking differences.
In this thesis, various aspects of the theory of non-archimedean dynamics are presented,
with particular reference to JULIA and FATOU sets and the relationship between good
reduction of a map and the empty JULIA set. We also discuss questions of the finiteness
of the sets of periodic points in special contexts. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: 'n Paar (X, <jJ) bestaande uit 'n nie-leë versameling X tesame met 'n afbeelding <jJ: X -+ X
vorm 'n diskrete dinamiese sisteem. In die bestudering van so 'n sisteem lê die klem op
die uitwerking op elemente van X van herhaalde toepassing van <jJ op die versameling.
Elemente en subversamelings van X word geklasifiseer volgens dinamiese kriteria en op
hierdie wyse ontstaan die JULIA en FATOU versamelings van die afbeelding en die versamelings
van periodiese en preperiodiese punte. Interessante vrae oor die eienskappe van
hierdie versamelings kom na vore.
In die geval van komplekse dinamika is sulke vrae reeds deeglik bestudeer, maar onlangse
werk is op nie-archimediese dinamiese sisteme gedoen, waar X 'n projektiewe ruimte is
oor 'n liggaam wat met 'n nie-archimediese norm toegerus is. Hierdie werk het baie
ooreenkomste maar ook treffende verskille met die komplekse dinamika uitgewys.
In hierdie tesis word daar ondersoek oor verskeie aspekte van die teorie van nie-archimediese
dinamika ingestel, in besonder met betrekking tot die JULIA en FATOU versamelings en
die verband tussen goeie reduksie van 'n afbeelding en die leë JULIA versameling. Vrae
oor die eindigheid van versamelings van periodiese punte in spesiale kontekste word ook
aangebied.
