1983.2 - Student Centre Uta, Martin Price, Jay Hoffman, Darrel Fields Dec 1983

1983.2 - Student Centre Uta, Martin Price, Jay Hoffman, Darrel Fields

School of Architecture Student Projects

Design work from the 1983 fall semester, Studio Martin Price, School of Architecture, The University of Texas at Arlington. Student Centre. Jay Hoffman and Darrel Fields. The challenge for the project was to site a student centre at the heart of the UTA campus without impeding upon one of its few green open spaces. This is achieved by creating a profile that folds the land into the sky to a height that responds to the adjacent buildings. Two grass-covered hills replace a flat landscape to form a groundscraper which contains the programmatic functions. Crossing paths tunnel through the higher elements …

Philosophy Of Normative Discourse And Persuasion: A Study Of Ga'dang Exhortation And Argumentation, Michael Ross Walrod Dec 1983

Philosophy Of Normative Discourse And Persuasion: A Study Of Ga'dang Exhortation And Argumentation, Michael Ross Walrod

Linguistics & TESOL Dissertations

This work applies the insights of textlinguistics to the study of normative or persuasive discourse. Although textlinguistics is already somewhat interdisciplinary in character, it was found to be too narrow to account for normative discourse, and had to be expanded to include further considerations of cultural phenomena, norms, and the relations of these to the theory of knowledge structures. In addition to the above, there are five major contributions of this study: (1) It shows how norms and knowledge structures play a part in the process of persuasion, and also redefines persuasion as including either the changing or the perpetuating …


Proto East Mindanao And Its Internal Relationships, Andrew Franklin Ii Gallman Dec 1983

Proto East Mindanao And Its Internal Relationships, Andrew Franklin Ii Gallman

Linguistics & TESOL Dissertations

This study reconstructs Proto East Mindanao, the ancestor language from which the East Mindanao languages have developed. This is accomplished by tracing the development from the ancestor language through the intermediate proto languages, Proto North East Mindanao, Proto Central East Mindanao, and Proto South East Mindanao, to the attested daughter languages. This study also presents over 1400 reconstructed vocabulary items. The term East Mindanao used in this study refers to three groups of languages spoken on the island of Mindanao in the southern part of the Philippines (in addition to Tausug, which is spoken on the island of Jolo). These …

Gamma-Gamma Angular Correlation Studies For 142ce, A. Wolf, C. Chung, W. B. Walters, R. L. Gill, M. Shmid, R. E. Chrien, Graham F. Peaslee Jul 1983

Gamma-Gamma Angular Correlation Studies For 142ce, A. Wolf, C. Chung, W. B. Walters, R. L. Gill, M. Shmid, R. E. Chrien, Graham F. Peaslee

Faculty Publications

Gamma-gamma angular correlations for several cascades in 142Ce were measured using a four-detector system. In a recent publication the level at 1219 keV was assigned 22+ in contradiction to a previous assignment of 41+. This makes 142Ce completely different from any known nucleus in the same region. It is shown, however, that this level is, in fact, completely consistent with 4+ and is in agreement with systematics.


Surname Analysis As A Sampling Method For Recovery Of Genetic Information, Joan C. Stevenson, R. J. Brown, Moses S. Schanfield May 1983

Surname Analysis As A Sampling Method For Recovery Of Genetic Information, Joan C. Stevenson, R. J. Brown, Moses S. Schanfield

Anthropology Faculty and Staff Publications

An effective means of retrieving ethnic information on a population sample for which there is already medical information may be surname analysis, but this has never been tested. Thus, two methods of surname classification were used to select individuals with German, Italian, Irish and Polish surnames from a sample of 2306 Milwaukee immigrants and offspring of immigrants. This sample represented only those individuals who identified all grandparents as coming from the same European geopolitical unit, and all had been previously tested for Glm(f, z, a and x), G3m(b0, bl, b3, b4 and g), A2m(l and 2), and Km(l). Selected sera …


Linguistic And Cultural Analysis Of Three Gujarati Folktales, Imanuel Gulabbhai Christian May 1983

Linguistic And Cultural Analysis Of Three Gujarati Folktales, Imanuel Gulabbhai Christian

Linguistics & TESOL Dissertations

This study represents an attempt to place linguistic analysis in the cultural setting. The linguistic aspect of this study is presented in the framework of discourse grammar following the model developed by Longacre (1976, 1983). Three Gujarati folktales are analyzed for their overall discourse structure, for their verb and sentence structure and relative importance of information in narrative discourse, and for the participant reference. A distinction is made between participant oriented narrative and event oriented narrative. In the analysis of the cultural setting the models of Levi-Strauss (1963, 1967, 1969, etc.) and Bastien (1978) are followed. In this section, on …


Magnetic Moments Of 21+ States As A Probe Of The Effective Proton Boson Number Near The Z = 64 Subshell, A. Wolf, Z. Berant, D. D. Warner, R. L. Gill, M. Shmid, R. E. Chrien, Graham F. Peaslee, H. Yamamoto, John C. Hill, F. K. Wohn, C. Chung, W. B. Walters Mar 1983

The g-factors of the 21+ states in 144, 146Ba have been measured using the perturbed angular correlation method. The results are combined with existing experimental data for the neutron-rich Nd, Sm and Gd isotopes and discussed in the framework of the neutron proton interacting boson model. It is shown that the assumption of a drastic change in the effective proton boson number around N = 88, proposed in an earlier study, allows all the results to be explained in a simple framework involving constant values of the boson g-factors.


A Four-Detector System For Γ - Γ Angular Correlation Studies, A. Wolf, C. Chung, W. B. Walters, Graham Peaslee, R. L. Gill, M. Shmid, V. Manzella, E. Meier, M. L. Stellts, H. I. Liou, R. E. Chrien, D. S. Brenner Mar 1983

Faculty Publications

A multiple detector system for γ - γ coincidence and angular correlation measurements is described. The system consists of four large coaxial Ge detectors set at fixed positions, enabling the measurement of γ - γ coincidences between any pair. Thus, six distinct angles are measured simultaneously. The performance of the system was studied with a 152Eu source. An application for γ - γ correlation studies in 146Ce is described. Systematic errors, if present, are shown to be less than 0.03 and 0.05 for A2 and A4, respectively. The extension of this system to more than four detectors is straightforward.

Industry Self-Regulation: An Economic, Organizational, And Political Analysis, Lawrence J. Lad, Anil K. Gupta Jan 1983

Industry Self-Regulation: An Economic, Organizational, And Political Analysis, Lawrence J. Lad, Anil K. Gupta

Scholarship and Professional Work - Business

Researchers generally have viewed nonmarket regulation of firm behavior as synonymous with direct regulation by the government. This paper highlights industry self-regulation as an alternative form of nonmarket regulation that, depending on the context, may supplement or complement direct regulation by the government. Further, on the basis of exploratory economic, organizational, and political analysis, it advances, for possible future research, propositions relating to the existence, operation, and out-come of industry self-regulation.

Successional Trends In An Ungrazed, Arid Grassland Over A Decade, Edgar F. Kleiner Jan 1983

Successional Trends In An Ungrazed, Arid Grassland Over A Decade, Edgar F. Kleiner

Canyonlands Research Bibliography

A study has been made of the vegetational condition of a formerly grazed area, Chesler Park, in Canyonlands National Park. A comparison was made with the same area 10 years earlier. The 10-year successional changes are also compared to baseline data of 10 years earlier from Virginia Park, an adjacent ungrazed area. Because of inaccessibility and long isolation from disturbances, Virginia Park is presumed to be in climax condition and is the control for this study. Chesler Park shows a successional trend after 10 years toward the vegetational condition of Virginia Park. This is exemplified, with only one major exception …
