The abundance, distribution, and ecology of the Tanner crab, Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun, on the southern Oregon continental slopeOliver, Brian Lee 18 August 1975 (has links)
Eleven cruises were conducted on the Oregon continental slope
from April 1973 to March 1975 to assess the biology and ecology of
the Tanner crab, Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun. Bathymetric and seasonal
analysis of the distribution of adult Tanner crabs west of Coos
Bay, Oregon, revealed no segregation of sexes or seasonal migration.
Relative abundance of adult crabs was greatest in the 500-700m depth
range. Juveniles were found throughout the adult depth range. Density
estimates using a three meter beam trawl were 0-500 crabs/km²
(mean = 56) for adult male C. tanneri and 0-1100 crabs/km² (mean =
164) for adult females. Stock estimates for the Oregon coast (500-
700m) and for the Oregon and Washington coasts (457-869m) supported
Pereyra's (1972) conclusion that a Tanner crab fishery would not be
feasible at this time. Longline pot fishing was suggested as a better
method of assessing the commercial potential of the Tanner crab stock.
Hydrological and sediment data indicated that the Tanner crab environment
is a relatively stable one temporally and spatially in the study
area. There was no apparent relationship between the presence or absence
of adult C. tanneri and temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen,
sediment organic carbon content, or sediment particle size. / Graduation date: 1976

Cechy koželuhů na Prachaticku. Se zvláštním zřetelem k Netolicím. / Guilds of tanners on Prachatice region. With special regard to Netolice.BLAHOUTOVÁ, Milada January 2018 (has links)
The thesis Guilds of tanners on Prachatice region. With special regard to Netolice The work deals with development of leather craft in the town of Netolice. In the introductory chapter are found chapters about craftmen who work with leather and problematic of guilds in our country, where is described literature used while making this work. Text is divided into five chapters which contain smaller subchapters. First part describes historical development of the town Netolice. Second chapter summarizes development of guild organizations in our land, their composition, administration and aspects until 1859. Representation of crafts and organizations associated with it are described in the third chapter. Penultimate part is dedicated to delimitation, division and history of tanning craft. The last chapter brings informations about the tanning guild in Netolice. The craft is divided on the basis of preserved documents when guild articles attracted great attention. After it work is devoted to development of guild based on nomative documents and guild accounts are disassembled. These contain informations summarized in the tables. In the end are summarized all acquired knowledge. Integral part of the work are also annexes containing images of article seals, guild books and federal list.

Linear stability analyses of Poiseuille flows of viscoelastic liquidsPalmer, Alison January 2007 (has links)
The linear stability of the Giesekus and linear Phan-Thien Tanner (PTT) fluid models is investigated for a number of planar Poiseuille flows in single, double and triple layered configurations. The Giesekus and PTT models involve parameters that can be used to fit shear and extensional data, thus making them suitable for describing both polymer solutions and melts. The base flow is determined using a Chebyshev-tau method. The linear stability equations are also discretized using Chebyshev approximations to furnish a generalized eigenvalue problem which is then solved using the QZ-algorithm. The eigenspectra are shown to comprise of continuous parts and discrete parts. The theoretical and numerical results are validated for the Oldroyd-B model, which is a simplified case of the Giesekus and PTT models, by comparing with results in the literature. The continuous and discrete parts of the eigenspectra are determined using a purely numerical scheme to solve the discretized eigenvalue problem. The continuous spectra are then more accurately determined using a semi-analytical scheme which uses an analytical solution of the Orr-Sommerfeld equation alongside a numerical solution for the base flow. A comprehensive survey of the effect of each shear thinning and extensional fluid parameter is undertaken and an instability is found for particular parameter values for the Giesekus fluid. A preliminary investigation of this instability is undertaken whereby the unstable discrete eigenvalue is investigated using an Orthonormal Runge-Kutta scheme within a shooting method which uses the results from the Chebyshev-QZ scheme as a starting point. The linear PTT fluid is found to be stable to infinitesimal disturbances within the range of shear-thinning and extensional parameters considered. The computational e ciency and accuracy of the numerical methods are also investigated.

The detection and discrimination of sunless self-tanners containing dihydroxyacetone on clothing using instrumental techniquesPalmer, Emily Jayne 12 March 2016 (has links)
The awareness of health risks associated with sun exposure, primarily ultra violet (UV) radiation, have played a large role in the introduction of sunless self-tanning products. These products, produced by cosmetic companies, are intended to provide the user with a sun-tanned appearance without exposing the skin to harmful UV radiation. While the manufacturers of these products claim that the products are transfer-free, several reports of the tanner depositing onto the wearers clothing have been documented1. As this is a highly undesirable characteristic for the consumer, the product's ability to transfer onto clothing makes sunless self-tanners a potentially valuable piece of forensic evidence in cases where an altercation between two individuals has occurred, specifically in sexual assaults, beatings, and homicides. The presence of self-tanner on an individual's clothing could help corroborate a story and provide an additional piece of evidence and/or leads to an investigation.
The purpose of this study was to determine if sunless self-tanners transfer from skin to clothing. Given that a transfer occurs, this research was also intended to both identify and evaluate the differences seen between self-tanning products using instrumental techniques that would typically be used in forensic labs.
Sixteen sunless self-tanning products were added to the skin as directed by the manufacturer. After an assigned time interval since application (15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours, or 12 hours) was reached, a white cotton swatch was used to wipe a portion of the sunless self-tanner off of the skin in attempt to simulate a realistic scenario of an altercation between individuals who may be wearing the product. Observations of the cotton swatches were document. Transferred material on the cotton swatches was analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Analysis of the products prepared directly from the packaging as well as two samples containing transferred material were analyzed using Gas Chromatography- Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS).
All of the sixteen samples tested transferred from the skin onto the cotton swatch when forcibly wiped at each time interval. FTIR analysis was unable to discriminate between the commercial products but was able to separate the samples into six groups based on similarities seen between the spectra. Analysis using this instrumental technique was useful in identifying the samples as sunless self-tanning products, but was unable to differentiate further. Analysis of the sunless self-tanners prepared directly from their packaging/bottle using GC-MS was able to differentiate between the products, providing a combination of chemical ingredients that were unique to each product. Analysis of the transferred material on the cotton swatches did not identify all of the chemical components that were earlier considered unique to that sample, however, peaks were observed in the chromatogram that were also present in the samples when prepared directly from their packaging. These transferred samples were able to be identified when a known sample was available for comparison. The instrumental techniques used in this study are useful in analyzing and identifying suspected sunless self-tanner stains on clothing in a crime laboratory setting. The results obtained from this analysis can provide probative information in an investigation.

Mathematical approach to channel codes with a diagonal matrix structureMitchell, David G. M. January 2009 (has links)
Digital communications have now become a fundamental part of modern society. In communications, channel coding is an effective way to reduce the information rate down to channel capacity so that the information can be transmitted reliably through the channel. This thesis is devoted to studying the mathematical theory and analysis of channel codes that possess a useful diagonal structure in the parity-check and generator matrices. The first aspect of these codes that is studied is the ability to describe the parity-check matrix of a code with sliding diagonal structure using polynomials. Using this framework, an efficient new method is proposed to obtain a generator matrix G from certain types of parity-check matrices with a so-called defective cyclic block structure. By the nature of this method, G can also be completely described by a polynomial, which leads to efficient encoder design using shift registers. In addition, there is no need for the matrices to be in systematic form, thus avoiding the need for Gaussian elimination. Following this work, we proceed to explore some of the properties of diagonally structured lowdensity parity-check (LDPC) convolutional codes. LDPC convolutional codes have been shown to be capable of achieving the same capacity-approaching performance as LDPC block codes with iterative message-passing decoding. The first crucial property studied is the minimum free distance of LDPC convolutional code ensembles, an important parameter contributing to the error-correcting capability of the code. Here, asymptotic methods are used to form lower bounds on the ratio of the free distance to constraint length for several ensembles of asymptotically good, protograph-based LDPC convolutional codes. Further, it is shown that this ratio of free distance to constraint length for such LDPC convolutional codes exceeds the ratio of minimum distance to block length for corresponding LDPC block codes. Another interesting property of these codes is the way in which the structure affects the performance in the infamous error floor (which occurs at high signal to noise ratio) of the bit error rate curve. It has been suggested that “near-codewords” may be a significant factor affecting decoding failures of LDPC codes over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. A near-codeword is a sequence that satisfies almost all of the check equations. These nearcodewords can be associated with so-called ‘trapping sets’ that exist in the Tanner graph of a code. In the final major contribution of the thesis, trapping sets of protograph-based LDPC convolutional codes are analysed. Here, asymptotic methods are used to calculate a lower bound for the trapping set growth rates for several ensembles of asymptotically good protograph-based LDPC convolutional codes. This value can be used to predict where the error floor will occur for these codes under iterative message-passing decoding.
