A Characterization Of A Class Of Non-Binary Matroids, James G. Oxley Jan 1990

A Characterization Of A Class Of Non-Binary Matroids, James G. Oxley

Faculty Publications

A well-known result of Tutte is that U2,4, the 4-point line, is the only non-binary matroid M such that, for every element e, both Mβe and M e, the deletion and contraction of e from M, are binary. This paper characterizes those non-binary matroids M such that, for every element e, Mβe or M e is binary. © 1990.

Primo Levi: The Drowned, The Saved, And The "Grey Zone", Ilona Klein Jan 1990

Primo Levi: The Drowned, The Saved, And The "Grey Zone", Ilona Klein

Faculty Publications

Primo Levi has been well known in Italy for many years. Even though his first book Se questo è un uomo–published in English as Survival in Auschwitz–did not sell well when first published by De Silva in 1947 (2,500 copies published, of which 600 remained unsold and were eventually destroyed by the 1966 flood in Florence), it was accepted unanimously in Italy as a literary masterpiece and a great witness to history when Einaudi republished the volume in 1956. From that moment on, Italian readers and critics have acknowledged the literary beauty and importance of Levi's writings. He …

On Redrawing Circuit Boundaries — Why The Proposal To Divide The United States Court Of Appeals For The Ninth Circuit Is Not Such A Good Idea, Thomas E. Baker Jan 1990

On Redrawing Circuit Boundaries — Why The Proposal To Divide The United States Court Of Appeals For The Ninth Circuit Is Not Such A Good Idea, Thomas E. Baker

Faculty Publications

The current U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit covers Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. Nearly 46 million people live within its boundaries. As a result, the 9th Circuit has the largest caseload and takes the most time of any federal circuit court to dispose of cases. Despite all of this, Professor Baker lays out his argument for why dividing the 9th Circuit is wrong-headed. He starts by giving a detailed history of U.S. circuit courts, including the recent experience of splitting the 5th Circuit. He then takes on …

Teaching In A Liberal Arts College: How Foreign Language Courses Contribute To "Writing Across The Curriculum" Programs, Ilona Klein Jan 1990

Teaching In A Liberal Arts College: How Foreign Language Courses Contribute To "Writing Across The Curriculum" Programs, Ilona Klein

Faculty Publications

This essay shares some thoughts about the need for interaction between foreign language instructors and English teachers, both in high schools and at the university level. As a foreign language teacher for the past nine years (the last four in a liberal arts college), I have encountered several problems and difficulties that could be overcome, I believe, if English, Writing, and Foreign Language departments addressed them together. I do not claim to be able to give definite answers, since many pedagogical concepts concerting L2 acquisition/learning and their possible application to writing programs remain misunderstood or are presently debated by teacher …

The Fourth Bite At The Apple: A Study Of The Operation And Utility Of The Social Security Administration's Appeals Council, Charles H. Koch Jr., David A. Koplow Jan 1990

The Fourth Bite At The Apple: A Study Of The Operation And Utility Of The Social Security Administration's Appeals Council, Charles H. Koch Jr., David A. Koplow

Faculty Publications

The Social Security Administration's Appeals Council performs the fourth and final administrative evaluation of appealed disability claims. Very little information about the Appeals Council has been available to claimants and their representatives, even though claimants must request Appeals Council review before filing an appeal in federal court. In response to criticism and controversy surrounding this obscure branch of the Social Security Administration, the Administrative Conference of the United States (ACUS) asked Professors Koch and Koplow to study the Appeals Council's effectiveness in disability claims and adjudication. In this Article, the authors examine Appeals Council operations and the Council's relationship to …

Advanced Infrared Optically Black Baffle Materials, David D. Allred, Ronald D. Seals, C. M. Egert Jan 1990

Advanced Infrared Optically Black Baffle Materials, David D. Allred, Ronald D. Seals, C. M. Egert

Faculty Publications

Infrared optically black baffle surfaces are an essential component of many advanced optical systems. All internal surfaces in advanced infrared optical sensors that require stray light management to achieve resolution are of primary concern in baffle design. Current industrial materials need improvements to meet advanced optical sensor systems requirements for optical, survivability, and endurability. Baffles are required to survive and operate in potentially severe environments. Robust diffuse-absorptive black surfaces, which are (1) thermally and mechanically stable to threats of x-ray, launch, and in-flight maneuver conditions, with specific densities to allow an acceptable weight load, (2) handleable during assembly, (3) cleanable, …

Networking Practitioners To Impact Teacher Education, Richard G. Stahlhut, Richard R. Hawkes, Sally S.J. Frudden, Thomas E. Davis

Faculty Publications

A description is given of the Regional Partnership Program; a field-responsive; center-specific model established at the University of Northern Iowa; designed to oversee clinical field experiences for student teachers. The model involves six regional districts specifically located across the state which serve as the administrative units for the field program. All of the centers have a common structure to allow for program continuity. Several examples of this continuity include: (1) every center has a tenure track professor who is the administrator for all aspects of the center's operation; (2) all centers have implemented a full semester student teaching curriculum; and …

Epitope Mapping Of The Monoclonal Antibody Fac2 On The Apoprotein Of Cpa-1 In Photosystem Ii, Laurie K. Frankel, Terry M. Bricker Nov 1989

Epitope Mapping Of The Monoclonal Antibody Fac2 On The Apoprotein Of Cpa-1 In Photosystem Ii, Laurie K. Frankel, Terry M. Bricker

Faculty Publications

Using a combination of cyanogen bromide cleavage and endoproteinase digestion we have shown that the putative epitope for the monoclonal antibody FAC2 lies in the region 360Pro-391Ser on the apoprotein of CPa-1. This region lies entirely within the large extrinsic loop of this protein. We have shown previously that the epitope of FAC2 becomes exposed in oxygen-evolving membranes upon treatment with alkaline Tris which releases all four of the manganese associated with the oxygen-evolving site of photosystem II. The epitope is not exposed, however, after CaCl2 treatment and exposure to low concentrations of chloride, conditions which lead to the release …

Interactive Measurement Of Three-Dimensional Cardiac Morphology, William A. Barrett, Shawn C. Becker Sep 1989

Interactive Measurement Of Three-Dimensional Cardiac Morphology, William A. Barrett, Shawn C. Becker

Faculty Publications

Techniques have been developed for extracting three-dimensional (3D) measurements directly and interactively from 3D representations of Cine CT images. In order to obtain 3D measurements the anatomical surface is interrogated directly through the use of a 3D graphical "probe" (line). The probe is interactively positioned and stretched between any visible surface points to allow direct capture of 3D (linear) distance. Distance measurements are updated in real time as the probe dynamically "penetrates" any intervening anatomy while providing valuable depth cuing for visual feedback and probe placement. Curvilinear distance is obtained by stretching the probe over multiple surface points. The probe …
