Custer and the 7th Cavalry

Hall, Kenneth Estes 01 January 2015 (has links)
Excerpt: The story of massacres and battles from 1868 to 1890 between the U.S. Cavalry and several native tribes is filled with outsider characters. These figures illustrate the fault lines which threaten the larger middle of the societies in question, composed of people who, like those in most conflicts, simply wanted to be left alone - especially on the Indian side.

Phase Transformations in Computer Simulated Icosahedrally Ordered Phases

Zetterling, Fredrik January 2003 (has links)
Computer simulations play a profound and fundamental role inmodern theoretical physics, chemistry and materials science. Tounderstand the complex physics of metally liquids, metals,quasicrystals and metally glasses a working model imposing thelocal and global order is needed. Experiments and theory havepredicted the local order in liquid metals to beicosahedral. The current work has been done using molecular dynamicscomputer simulations of a monatomic system using a simplepair-potential for the interactions. Two new pair-potentialshas been developed, the Zetterling-1(Z1) and Zetterling-2(Z2)potentials. They are specifically modeled to impose icosahedralorder. The basis for the development of the potentials was theold Dzugutov potential which is known to freeze into adodecagonal quasicrystal. The new Zetterling potentials have alonger interaction range and a narrower first minimum. The morenarrow first minimum will enhance the local icosahedralordering and the longer interaction range was introduced toincorporate a second maximum in the potential mimicing theFriedel oscillations found in metallic systems. These Friedeloscillations are due to the singularity which arises at theFermi surface due to the screening of the positive charge bythe electron gas. Five papers are included in the study. The first two papersare studies of icosahedral clustering in the liquid andsupercooled liquid. The simulations in Paper I was done usingthe old Dzugutov potential while the new potentials were usedin Paper II using both molecular dynamics and the Basin Hoppingalgorithm presented in Chapter 5. Paper III considers theconcept of dynamical ergodicity in the context of thesuper-cooled liquid behaviour. The simulations were made usingthe old Dzugutov potential. Paper IVr eports a moleculardynamics simulation using the Dzugutov potential undersuper-cooling. A formation of icosahedrally structured domainswith distinctly slow diffusion which grows with cooling in alow-dimensional manner and percolate around Tc, the criticaltemperature of the mode-coupling theory. A sharp slowing downof the structural relaxation relative to diffusion is observed.It is concluded that this effect cannot be accounted for by thespatial variation in atomic mobility. The low-dimensionalclustering is discussed as a possible mechanism of fragility.Paper Vin vestigates the crystallization of a simple monatomicliquid model which utilizes the Zetterling-1 potential.

Cluster techniques and prediction models for a digital media learning environment

Fernandez Espinosa, Arturo 01 August 2012 (has links)
The present work applies well-known data mining techniques in a digital learning media environment in order to identify groups of students based on their pro le. We generate identi able clusters where some interesting patterns and rules are observed. We generate a neural network predictive model intended to predict the success of the students in the digital media learning environment. One of the goals of this study is to identify a subset of variables that have the biggest impact in student performance with respect to the learning assessments of the digital media learning environment. Three approaches are used to perform the dimensionality reduction of our dataset. The experiments were conducted with over 69 students of health science courses who used the digital media learning environment. / UOIT

A Critique of the Representation of Violence in American Literature:

Knight, Tatiana E. 01 November 2012 (has links)
The purpose of this thesis was to draw new insights on Thomas Berger’s classic American novel, Little Big Man, and his representation of fictional violence that is a substantial aspect of any text on the Indian Wars and “Custer’s Last Stand”. History’s major world wars led to shifts in the political climate and a noted change in the way that violence was represented in the arts. Historical, fictional, and cinematic treatments of “Custer’s Last Stand” and violence were each considered in relation to the text. Berger's version of the famed story is a revision of history that shows the protagonist as a dual-member of two violent societies. The thesis concluded that Berger’s updated American legends and unique “white renegade” character led to a representation of violence that spoke to the current state of affairs in 1964 when the world was becoming much more hostile and chaotic place.
