Calculation of the radiative lifetime and optical properties for three-dimensional (3D) hybrid perovskitesMohammad, Khaled Shehata Baiuomy January 2016 (has links)
A dissertation submitted for the fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Science
to the Faculty of Science, Witwatersrand University, Johannesburg.
June 2016. / The combination of effective numerical techniques and scientific intuition to find new and novel
types of materials is the process used in the discovery of materials for future technologies. Adding
to that, being able to calculate the radiative lifetimes of excitons, exciton properties, and the
optical properties by using efficient numerical techniques gives an estimation and identification
of the best candidate materials for a solar cell. This approach is inexpensive and stable. Present
ab initio methods based on Many-body perturbation theory and density functional theory are
capable of predicting these properties with a high enough level of accuracy for most cases.
The electronic properties calculated using GaAs as a reference system and the 3D hybird perovskite
CH3NH3PbI3 are based on density functional theory. The optical properties are investigated
by calculating the dielectric function. The theoretical framework of the radiative lifetime
of excitons and calculating the exciton properties are based on Wannier model of the exciton
and the Bethe-Salpeter equation. / MT2017

Maker discourses and invisible labour: talking about the 3-D printerCoetzee, Anton 29 July 2016 (has links)
A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Arts, University of the Witwatersrand,
Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts
May 2016 / The technology of 3-D Printing is afforded extensive coverage in the media. Discourses surrounding
this technology are charged with ideas of revolutions in manufacturing, democratisation
of technology, and the potential to change the face of consumption and production.
This technology is being marketed to the consumer and hobbyist. The consumer-grade 3-D
printer is a result of the labour of a loose-knit worldwide community of hobbyists known
as the "Maker movement". This movement, a convergence of the traditional "Hacker" culture
and Do It Yourself (DIY) is constructed around ideas of affective labour. That is, labour
performed for the sole purpose of enjoyment of doing so, and for a sense of well-being
and community. The explosion of "affordable" 3-D printing as a technology is a result of
this affective labour, yet little mention is made of any forms of labour in popular media
discourses surrounding this technology.
In this paper I construct a history of the Maker movement while theorising the forms
of labour inherent to this movement using the Autonomist Marxism of Michael Hardt
and Antonio Negri as a framework. Then, working within the field of Cultural Studies,
and drawing on Actor-Network Theory (ANT), I perform Multimodal Critical Discourse
Analysis (MCDA) on a small sample of texts to illustrate the occlusion and obfuscation of
labour within these discourses of the consumer 3-D printer

Model-less pose tracking. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2007 (has links)
Acquiring 3-D motion of a camera from image sequences is one of the key components in a wide range of applications such as human computer interaction. Given the 3-D structure, the problem of camera motion recovery can he solved using the model-based approaches, which are well-known and have good performance under a controlled environment. If prior information on the scene is not available, traditional Structure from Motion (SFM) algorithms, which simultaneously estimate the scene structure and pose information, are required. The research presented in this thesis belongs to a different category: Motion from Motion (MFM), in which the main concern is the camera position and orientation. To be more precise, MFM algorithms have the capability of estimating 3-D camera motion directly from 2-D image motion without the explicit reconstruction of the scene structure, even though the 3-D model structure is not known in prior. As keeping track of the structural information is no longer required, putting these types of algorithms into real applications is relatively easy and convenient. / It is demonstrated in the experiments that the proposed algorithms are efficient, stable and accurate compared to several existing approaches. Furthermore, they have been put into applications such as mixed reality, virtual reality, robotics and super-resolution to show their performance in real situations. / The objective of this thesis is to develop a high-speed recursive approach that tackles the MFM problem. On the way to the final goal, a series of methods, each having its own strengths and characteristics, have been studied. (1) The first algorithm computes the camera pose from a monocular image sequence. The trifocal tensor is incorporated into the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) formulation. The step of computing the 3-D models can thus be eliminated. (2) The proposed approach is then extended to the recovery of motion from a stereo image sequence. By applying the trifocal tensor to a stereo vision framework, the trifocal constraint becomes more robust and is not likely to be degenerate. In addition, the twist motion model is adopted to parameterize the 3-D motion. It does not suffer from singularities as Euler angles, and is minimal as opposed to quaternion and the direct use of rotation matrix. (3) The third method introduces the Interacting Multiple Model Probabilistic Data Association Filter (IMMPDAF) to the MFM problem. The Interacting Multiple Model (IMM) technique allows the existence of more than one dynamic system and in return leads to improved accuracy and stability even under abrupt motion changes. The Probabilistic Data Association (PDA) framework makes the automatic selection of measurement sets possible, resulting in enhanced robustness to occlusions and moving objects. As the PDA associates stereo correspondences probabilistically, the explicit establishment of stereo matches is not necessary except during initialization, and the point features present in the outer region of the stereo images can be utilized. / Yu, Ying Kin. / "July 2007." / Adviser: Wong Kin Hong. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 69-02, Section: B, page: 1125. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2007. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 120-130). / Electronic reproduction.
