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

School of Architecture Student Projects - Archive

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 …

The Role Of Nonreal Eigenvalues In The Identification Of Cycles In A Compartmental System, Jerome Eisenfeld, S. M. Grundy, W. F. Beltz Nov 1983

The Role Of Nonreal Eigenvalues In The Identification Of Cycles In A Compartmental System, Jerome Eisenfeld, S. M. Grundy, W. F. Beltz

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

The paper concerns the relationship between the cycles in the graph of a compartmental system and the modes of the impulse response function associated with an input-output experiment. Suppose that there is at least one oscillatory mode, [see pdf for notation]. Let [see pdf for notation] be the slowest mode. The main result is that the system contains a cycle of length three or longer and that the length of the longest cycle is at least [see pdf for notation]. The paper also deals with the problem of estimating cycle length from discrete data.

Existence Of Coupled Quasi-Solutions Of Systems Of Nonlinear Reaction-Diffusion Equations, V. Lakshmikantham, G. S. Ladde Oct 1983

Existence Of Coupled Quasi-Solutions Of Systems Of Nonlinear Reaction-Diffusion Equations, V. Lakshmikantham, G. S. Ladde

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

Systems of nonlinear parabolic initial boundary value problems arise in many applications such as epidemies, ecology, biochemistry, biology, chemical and nuclear engineering. Constructive methods of proving existence results for such problems, which can also provide numerical procedures for the computation of solutions, are of greater value than theoretical existence results. The method of upper and lower solutions coupled with monotone iterative technique has been employed successfully to prove existence of multiple solutions of nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations, in special case, by various authors [3,4,5,10,11,15 181. Recently, in [6,17] weakly coupled systems of reaction diffusion equations, when the nonlinear terms are independent …

Pressure Method For The Numerical Solution Of Transient, Compressible Fluid Flown, Donald Greenspan, Vincenzo Casulli Aug 1983

Pressure Method For The Numerical Solution Of Transient, Compressible Fluid Flown, Donald Greenspan, Vincenzo Casulli

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

In this paper the pressure method for incompressible fluid flow simulation is extended and applied to the numerical simulation of compressible fluid flow. The governing equations, obtained from the physical principles of conservation of momentum, mass and energy, are first studied from a characteristic point of view. Then they are discretized with a semi-implicit finite difference technique in such a fashion that the Courant stability condition on the time step is not required. The resulting algorithm is fast, accurate and applies to problems with arbitrarily large speed of sound. As an example, the computer simulation of the von Kármán vortex …

Monotone Method For Boundary Value Problems Describing Periodic Transport Processes, G. R. Shendge Jul 1983

Monotone Method For Boundary Value Problems Describing Periodic Transport Processes, G. R. Shendge

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

One of the powerful methods of proving the existence of extremal solutions of initial and boundary value problems is the monotone iterative technique [1-4,6,7]. This has recently been applied [5] to a rather special type of boundary value problem [see pdf for notation] because, particular cases of (*) represent equations arising in the transport process of different types of particles moving in opposite directions, which are subjected to certain fluxes [8]. However (*) does not include situations in which the initial and final fluxes in a certain direction coincide. To cover this situation one needs to study a typical periodic …

Conserving Numerical Methods For X = F(X), Donald Greenspan Jul 1983

Conserving Numerical Methods For X = F(X), Donald Greenspan

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

Physics is characterized by conservation laws and by symmetry [1]. Unfortunately, the application of numerical methodology in approximating solutions of initial value problems usually does not preserve either of these invariants. In this sense, the use of a computer destroys the physics of a dynamical model. We will show here how to conserve total energy when solving the nonlinear initial value problem [see pdf for notation] on a computer. Moreover, the energy conserved will be exactly that of (1.1), not a new "energy" which is defined by the numerical method (see, e.g., Langdon [5]). Two distinctly different methods will be …

Existence Of Coupled Quasi-Solutions Of Systems Of Nonlinear Elliptic Boundart Value Problems, V. Lakshmikantham, G. S. Ladde, A. S. Vatsala Jun 1983

Existence Of Coupled Quasi-Solutions Of Systems Of Nonlinear Elliptic Boundart Value Problems, V. Lakshmikantham, G. S. Ladde, A. S. Vatsala

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

Systems of nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems arise in many applications such as multiple chemical reactions that take place in an isothermal or nonisothermal catalyst pellet and simple models of tubular chemical reactors [7,8,9]. Moreover, such problems also occur in a natural way as auxiliary problems in stability analysis of steady states of dynamic systems governed by reaction-diffusion systems. Constructive methods of proving existence results of such boundary value problems, which can also provide numerical procedures for the computation of solutions, are of greater value than theoretical existence results. The method of upper and lower solutions coupled with monotone iterative …

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 - Archive

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 …

A Study Of Robustness Of Preliminary Tests In Conditionally Specified Regression Models, Chien-Pai Han May 1983

A Study Of Robustness Of Preliminary Tests In Conditionally Specified Regression Models, Chien-Pai Han

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

The selection of variables in regression analysis is usually done by using preliminary tests. When it is doubtful whether the regression coefficients of a set of variables are equal to zero or not, one may use a significance test. When the test rejects the null hypothesis, the set of variables is retained in the model otherwise the set is deleted from the model. The preliminary test is usually an F test based on normal theory. This paper examines the robustness of the preliminary test in model selection by a Monte Carlo study.

An Information Theoretic Approach To Incorporating Prior Information In Binomial Sampling, Paul Chiou, Danny D. Dyer May 1983

An Information Theoretic Approach To Incorporating Prior Information In Binomial Sampling, Paul Chiou, Danny D. Dyer

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

The incorporation of prior information about [see pdf for notation], where [see pdf for notation] is the success probability in a binomial sampling model, is an essential feature of Bayesian statistics. Methodology based on information theoretic concepts is introduced which (a) quantifies the amount of information provided by the sample data relative to that provided by the prior distribution and (b) allows for a ranking of prior distributions with respect to conservativeness, where conservatism refers to restraint of extraneous information about [see pdf for notation] which is embedded in any prior distribution. In effect,, the most conservative prior distribution from …

Greedy And Optimal Paths In A Weighted Graph Without Circuits And Applications To A Class Of Optimization Problems On Finite Posets, Irinel C. Dragan May 1983

Greedy And Optimal Paths In A Weighted Graph Without Circuits And Applications To A Class Of Optimization Problems On Finite Posets, Irinel C. Dragan

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

In several recent papers B. Korte and L. Lovasz considered a mathematical structure called a simple language on which a greedy algorithm can operate (see [31,J41, OD. The concept of greedoid has been defined by relaxing an axiom and strengthening an other axiom from the definition of the matroid. Under some constraints imposed to the objective function of a combinatorial optimization problem on a greedoid, the greedy algorithm provides an efficient method for solving the problem. An algorithmic characterization of the greedoids, similar to that of the matroids, was further searched. The effort has been justified-by several examples of combinatorial …

Extension Of Compartmental Parameters To Blocks Of Compartments With Application To Lipoprotein Kinetics, S. M. Grundy, Jerome Eisenfeld Feb 1983

Extension Of Compartmental Parameters To Blocks Of Compartments With Application To Lipoprotein Kinetics, S. M. Grundy, Jerome Eisenfeld

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

Suppose that the compartments of a compartmental model are separated into blocks (sets of compartments). In general, the blocks can not be regarded as compartments but it may be possible to construct a "condensation model," the compartments of which correspond to the blocks, in such a fashion so as to retain certain salient properties of the blocks. Condensation is a way of formally summarizing a large model by presenting a smaller one in order to emphasize certain characteristics.of the larger model. Suppose that the parameters to be retained are the mean residence times through the blocks. The paper deals with …
