Flag : The Fault-Line Analytic Graph And Fingerprint Classification, Ching-Yu Huang
Flag : The Fault-Line Analytic Graph And Fingerprint Classification, Ching-Yu Huang
Dissertations
Fingerprints can be classified into millions of groups by quantitative measurements of their new representations - Fault-Line Analytic Graphs (FLAG), which describe the relationship between ridge flows and singular points. This new model is highly mathematical, therefore, human interpretation can be reduced to a minimum and the time of identification can be significantly reduced.
There are some well known features on fingerprints such as singular points, cores and deltas, which are global features which characterize the fingerprint pattern class, and minutiae which are the local features which characterize an individual fingerprint image. Singular points are more important than minutiae when …
Effects Of Surfactants And Fenton's Reagents On Extraction And Destruction Of Phenanthrene In Spiked Sand, Ming-Chin Chang
Effects Of Surfactants And Fenton's Reagents On Extraction And Destruction Of Phenanthrene In Spiked Sand, Ming-Chin Chang
Dissertations
In this study, surfactants and Fenton's reagents (Fe(II) and H202) ere proposed to solve contaminated site problems in situ on a lab scale. Phenanthrene is a simple PAHs (polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons). The phenanthrene spiked ottawa sand simulated contaminated soil. HPLC was used for phenanthrene analysis because it provided excellent separation and no interference. Six surfactants (including nonionic and ionic) were tested. The operating conditions were optimized based on process and economic considerations such as reaction time, mixing speed, concentrations of surfactants and concentrations of Fenton's reagents. Surfactants could effectively dissolve phenanthrene from the spiked sand. In …
A Simple Neural Agent Communicating Through Sets, James P. Stanski
A Simple Neural Agent Communicating Through Sets, James P. Stanski
Theses
Networked agents of the simplest kind offer the power of cooperative problem solving through parallel operation along with tight packaging potential. Such agents are self-contained analog machines capable of only a few primitive intelligent operations. In this thesis, a design will be developed for a simple agent capable of sending, receiving, and processing information in a environment where agents are coupled together. This environment imposes unorchestrated simultaneous input while expecting a useful timely response. Successful collaboration in these conditions is accomplished through sets encoded within pulse ensembles. The simplicity of the set definition is an inviting candidate for message communication …

The Significance Of Viscosity In Density-Dependent Flow Of Groundwater, Duke Ophori
The Significance Of Viscosity In Density-Dependent Flow Of Groundwater, Duke Ophori
Department of Earth and Environmental Studies Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
Many modeling studies of variable-density groundwater flow have been performed in the last few decades. In most of these studies, fluid density is considered to vary with concentration, while the variation of viscosity with concentration is neglected. The consequences of this negligence is not completely known. The present study uses a numerical simulation approach to investigate the density-viscosity-concentration relationship during groundwater flow and solute transport through a density-stratified system. Fluid density is assumed to increase with depth from freshwater at the surface, through brackish and saline waters, to brines at the bottom half of the system. The system mimics field …

Physics Faculty Publications
Deep-level transient spectroscopy measurements of n-type GaN epitaxial layers irradiated with 1-MeV electrons reveal an irradiation-induced electron trap at EC−0.18 eV. The production rate is approximately 0.2 cm−1, lower than the rate of 1 cm−1 found for the N vacancy by Hall-effect studies. The defect trap cannot be firmly identified at this time. ©1998 American Institute of Physics.
The Nature Of The Continuum Limit In The 2d Rp^2 Gauge Model, Simon Catterall, M. Hasenbusch, R. R. Horgan, R. Renken
The Nature Of The Continuum Limit In The 2d Rp^2 Gauge Model, Simon Catterall, M. Hasenbusch, R. R. Horgan, R. Renken
Physics - All Scholarship
The RP(2) gauge model is studied in 2D. We use Monte-Carlo renormalization techniques for blocking the mean spin-spin interaction, , and the mean gauge field plaquette. The presence of the O(3) renormalized trajectory is verified and is consistent with the known three-loop beta-function. The first-order `vorticity' transition observed by Solomon et al. is confirmed, and the location of the terminating critical point is established. New scaling flows in (,) are observed associated with a large exponent kappa in the range 4~5. The scaling flows give rise to a strong cross-over effect between regions of high and low vorticity …

On Lipschitzian, And Connected Matrices In: Linear Complementarity Problem., Sriparna Bandyopadhyay Dr.
Doctoral Theses
This dissertation deals with a number of questions related to the linear complementarity problem (LCP). Given A ∈ Rn*n and q ∈ Rnthe LCP is to find a vector z ∈ R" such that Az+q ≥0,≥ and 2'(Az + 9) = 0. There is a vast literature on LCP developed during the last four decades. LCP plays a crucial role in the study of Mathematical Progranming from the point of view of algorithms as well as applications. The questions on existence and multiplicity of solutions in LCP has led researchers to introduce and study a variety of matrix classes. Most …
Novel Doubly Excited States Produced In Negative Ion Photodetachment, Anthony F. Starace
Novel Doubly Excited States Produced In Negative Ion Photodetachment, Anthony F. Starace
Anthony F. Starace Publications
Eigenchannel R-matrix calculations for photodetachment partial cross sections of H–, Li–, Na–, and Aℓ– provide results that are dominated by high doubly-excited states and that are in excellent agreement with available measurements. Propensity rules for doubly-excited states developed for H– apply also for heavier targets. However, states not observed in H– may be observed in the heavier target spectra owing to the non-Coulomb core. Finally the signature of particular doubly excited states changes drastically from one partial cross section to another.

We report on the results of R-band observations of the error box of the g-ray burst of 1997 August 28 made between 4 hr and 8 days after this burst occurred. No counterpart was found varying by more than 0.2 mag down to R 5 23.8. We discuss the consequences of this nondetection for relativistic blast wave models of g-ray bursts and the possible effect of redshift on the relation between optical absorption and the low-energy cutoff in the X-ray afterglow spectrum.

High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Separation Of Enantiomers Of Unusual Amino Acids On A Teicoplanin Chiral Stationary Phase, Antal Péter, Gabriella Török, Daniel W. Armstrong
Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works
A glycopeptide antibiotic, teicoplanin, was used as chiral stationary phase for the high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) separation of enantiomers of more than 30 unnatural amino acids, such as phenylalanine and tyrosine analogues and analogues containing 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, tetraline, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-carboline, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, cyclohexene, bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane or heptene skeletons. Excellent resolutions were achieved for most of the investigated compounds by using a hydro-organic mobile-phase system. The effects of organic modifier content, temperature and flow-rate on the resolution were investigated and the conditions of separation were optimized.

Fluctuation Properties Of Precipitation. Part Ii: Reconsideration Of The Meaning And Measurement Of Raindrop Size Distributions, A. R. Jameson, Alexander Kostinski
Fluctuation Properties Of Precipitation. Part Ii: Reconsideration Of The Meaning And Measurement Of Raindrop Size Distributions, A. R. Jameson, Alexander Kostinski
Department of Physics Publications
For M drop size categories, rain is frequently viewed simply as the superposition of M,statistically independent Poisson-distributed drop fluxes each described by its own mean concentration. Implicit in such a Poissonian model is the assumption of uncorrelated counts among the drops. However, it is well known that drop size distributions are the result of the processes of collision, coalescence, and breakup, which should lead to correlations.
This inconsistency is resolved in this work. Using 1-min disdrometer measurements, two-point cross-correlation functions are used to show that drop counts at different sizes are correlated rather than independent. Moreover, it is argued …

Cosmopolitan Distribution Of The Large Composite Microbial Mat Spirochete, Spirosymplokos Deltaeiberi, Lynn Margulis, Antoni Navarrete, Mónica Solé
Lynn Margulis (1938 - 2011)
Inocula from organic-rich black muds immediately underlying intertidal laminated microbial mats dominated by Microcoleus chthonoplastes yielded large, variable diameter spirochetes. These unusual spirochetes, previously reported only from the Alfacs Peninsula at the delta of the Ebro river in northeast Spain, contain striking arrays of cytoplasmic granules packed into their protoplasmic cylinders. On several occasions, both in summer and winter, the huge spirochetes were recognized in samples from mats growing in the Sippewissett salt marsh at Woods Hole Massachusetts. They were also seen in similar samples from microbial mats at North Pond, Laguna Figueroa, Baja California Norte, Mexico. The identity of …
Crossing Of Disclinations In Nematic Slabs, T. Ishikawa, Oleg Lavrentovich
Crossing Of Disclinations In Nematic Slabs, T. Ishikawa, Oleg Lavrentovich
Oleg Lavrentovich
It is shown experimentally that crossing and intercommutation of disclinations in a bounded nematic cell depend on surface orientation of the director and the relative strength of disclinations. Lines of opposite strength switch the pinned ends between the bounding plates and vanish independently of each other if the surface orientation is tangential. In contrast, tilted surface orientation preserves the stability of lines.
Molecular Gas In The Inner 100 Parces Of M51, N Z. Scoville, Min S. Yun, L Armus, H Ford
Molecular Gas In The Inner 100 Parces Of M51, N Z. Scoville, Min S. Yun, L Armus, H Ford
Min S. Yun
We report imaging of CO (2-1) emission in the nucleus of M51 at 1'' (47 pc) resolution. Molecular gas is found closely associated with the nuclear radio jet and the X-shaped dust absorption feature seen in the Hubble Space Telescope images. The CO emission lies along the side of the nuclear radio continuum "jet." The strongest molecular emission is not symmetric in either position or velocity with respect to the nucleus—the dominant feature is at redshifted velocities and peaks 1'' to the west of the radio/optical nucleus. The CO (2-1) emission has an integrated flux implying a molecular gas mass …
Radical Ion Probes. 8. Direct And Indirect Electrochemistry Of 5,7-Di-Tert-Butylspiro[2.5]Octa-4,7-Dien-6-One And Derivatives, J. Paige Phillips, Jason G. Gillmore, Phillip Schwartz, Larry E. Brammer Jr., Daniel J. Berger, J. M. Tanko
Radical Ion Probes. 8. Direct And Indirect Electrochemistry Of 5,7-Di-Tert-Butylspiro[2.5]Octa-4,7-Dien-6-One And Derivatives, J. Paige Phillips, Jason G. Gillmore, Phillip Schwartz, Larry E. Brammer Jr., Daniel J. Berger, J. M. Tanko
Faculty Publications
Results pertaining to the direct and indirect electrochemistry of 5,7-di-tert-butylspiro[2.5]octa-4,7-dien-6-one (1a), 1-methyl-5,7-di-tert-butylspiro[2.5]octa-4,7-dien-6-one (1b), and 1,1,-dimethyl-5,7-di-tert-butylspiro[2.5]octa-4,7-dien-6-one (1c) are reported. Product analyses reveal that reduction of all these substrates leads to cyclopropane ring-opened products; ring opening occurs with modest selectivity leading to the more substituted (stable) distonic radical anion. The direct electrochemistry of these compounds is characterized by rate limiting electron transfer (with α ≈ 0.5), suggesting that while ring opening is extremely rapid, the radical anions do have a discrete lifetime (i.e., electron transfer and ring opening are not concerted). Utilizing homogeneous redox catalysis, rate constants for electron transfer between 1a, …
Morphology, Eruption Rates, And Rheology Of Lava Domes: Insights From Laboratory Models, Jonathan H. Fink, Ross W. Griffiths
Morphology, Eruption Rates, And Rheology Of Lava Domes: Insights From Laboratory Models, Jonathan H. Fink, Ross W. Griffiths
Geology Faculty Publications and Presentations
The growth of lava domes can be either quiescent or violent, with transitions between styles of behavior commonly occurring with little warning. Here we propose that the behavior depends on the eruption rate, the magma rheology, and the thickness ofthe cooling surface. We present a model, based on laboratory simulations, field measurements, and photographic analysis, that relates the morphology and texture of a dome to the thickness of its cooled carapace, and thence to eruption conditions. A sequence of four main types of dome (spiny, lobate, platy, and axisymmetric) is identified in laboratory analog experiments with a Bingham plastic. These …

Several indan, tetralin and benzosuberan derivatives of diverse polarities were enantio-resolved by the use of sulfated β-cyclodextrins (CDs) or mixtures of sulfated β-CDs and γ-CD as chiral additives in capillary electrophoresis. Mixtures of sulfated 13-CDs and hydroxypropy1 β- CDs were also successfully utilized for enantiomeric and diastereomeric separations of some of the tetralin derivatives with two stereogenic centers. Both neutral and anionic analytes were resolved in the reversed electrophoretic polarity mode. Cationic amino derivatives of indan and tetralin were enantio-resolved in the conventional electrophoretic polarity mode.

Mechanism Of Capillary Electrophoresis Enantioseparations Using A Combination Of An Achiral Crown Ether Plus Cyclodextrins, Daniel W. Armstrong, L. W. Chang, S. S.C. Chang
Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works
The addition of an achiral crown ether (18-crown-6) to a cyclodextrin- based separation can significantly affect the capillary electrophoresis (CE) enantioresolution of organic racemates that contain a primary amine functional group. In most cases an enhancement of the enantioseparation was observed. However, there are also cases where the addition of 18-crown-6 was detrimental to a cyclodextrin-based CE enantioseparation. The effect of concentration of the two complexing additives as well as the effect of pH and added potassium ion were examined. A specific three-body complex involving simultaneous, dual inclusion complex formation can be used to explain both the enhanced and diminished …

The molal formation quotients for cadmium-malonate complexes were measured potentiometrically from 5 to 75°C, at ionic strengths of 0.1, 0.3, 0.6 and 1.0 molal in aqueous sodium trifluoromethanesulfonate (NaTf) media. In addition, the stepwise dissociation quotients for malomc acid were measured in the same medium from 5 to 100°C, at ionic strengths of 0.1, 0.3, 0.6, and 1.0 molal by the same method. The dissociation quotients for malonic acid were modeled as a function of temperature and ionic strength with empirical equations formulated such that the equilibrium constants at infinite dilution were consistent, within the error estimates, with the malonic …

The distribution of calcareous nannofossils in the upper Cenozoic sections sampled at four sites in the eastern equatorial Atlantic Ocean during Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 159 is documented here. A virtually complete upper Cenozoic sequence of nannofossil (sub)zones is identified at Site 959 on the shoulder of the Côte d’Ivoire-Ghana marginal ridge, with proxies for the rare marker species being employed. Hiatuses within the middle and upper Miocene are detected at two other sites on the same ridge, being more clearly defined at Site 960 on the crest of the ridge. Two of these hiatuses are of regional significance. …

Cretaceous sediments from Ocean Drilling Program Leg 159 on the Côte d’Ivoire-Ghana Marginal Ridge (CIGMR), eastern equatorial Atlantic, are characterized by distinct stratigraphic changes in sedimentary facies associated with changes in the composition of the clayey and organic fractions, as well as of the calcareous nannofossil, radiolarian, foraminiferal, and palynomorph assemblages. In the absence of reliable magnetostratigraphic information, an integrated biostratigraphy provides the only means used to calibrate the geologic history of the Leg 159 area.
The existence of marine depositional environments as early as the late Aptian to early Albian close to the Leg 159 drill sites puts constraints …

Oligocene To Early Miocene Silicoflagellates From The Ivorian Basin, Eastern Equatorial Atlantic, Site 959, Maija E. Schellpeper, David K. Watkins
Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications
Silicoflagellate biostratigraphy and relative abundance were determined for Site 959 in the eastern equatorial Atlantic. Five silicoflagellate zones, Corbisema apiculata, Naviculopsis biapiculata, Naviculopsis lata, Naviculopsis ponticula, and Corbisema triacantha Zones, were used with the Distephanus speculum hemisphaericus Subzone occurring in the N. biapiculata Zone. The Naviculopsis quadrata Zone is missing between the N. ponticula and N. lata Zones, indicating a hiatus in the lower Miocene cores that corresponds to hiatus NH1. Silicoflagellate relative abundance was graphed as a measure of paleoproductivity for Hole 959A. One large pulse of productivity occurred in the latest early Miocene, right before silica deposition …
