New Computer Methods For Protein Crystallography, Martin Zwick

Complex Systems Faculty Publications and Presentations

New Computer Methods for Protein Crystallography, by Martin Zwick. Submitted to the Department of Biology on 30 August 1968 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The section, "MYOGLOBIN REFINEMENT," describes the fitting of an idealized polypeptide chain to a set of approximate backbone coordinates for the protein, sperm whale myoglobin. This procedure refines the structure by imposing upon it known bond distances and angles, and simultaneously derives a representation of the polypeptide conformation in terms of the values of the rotation angles about its single bonds. The overall rms and mean deviation between …

Economic Analysis Of Flood Detention Storage By Digital Computer, James Ray Villines, L. Douglas James

KWRRI Research Reports

The objective of this study was to develop a digital computer procedure for preliminary analysis of the economic justification of reservoir detention storage for flood control and to present a sample study illustrating its application. A computer program called the University of Kentucky Flood Control Planning Program III was developed and tested on the flood plain of the South Fork of the Licking River in northeastern Kentucky.

Given a specified reservoir site and a downstream flood plain divided into planning units, Program III selects the economically efficient combination of reservoir detention storage and the associated combination of channel improvement, flood …

Planning Flood Control Measures By Digital Computer, James Norris Cline, L. Douglas James

KWRRI Research Reports

The purpose of this study was to develop adequate guidelines whereby those interested in flood control planning would be able to apply a pair of digital computer programs known as the University of Kentucky Flood Control Planning Programs to ease the computational burden of evaluating specific flood control situations. Program II determines the economically optimum combination of channel improvement, land use restriction, and flood proofing for flood damage abatement. Program III also incorporates reservoir storage into the planning process. The Programs are not intended to provide a finished design but rather to select the optimum combination of flood control measures …

A Comparison Of Three Numerical Techniques Used For The Solution Of The Two-Point Boundary Value Problem, William Richard Krall

Masters Theses

"Three numerical approximation techniques, called the Initial step, Shooting, and Direct Finite Difference Techniques, respectively, are compared and discussed as they apply to the solution of both linear and non-linear boundary-value problems of the form y"=f(x,y,y') with endpoint conditions y(x_o)=y_o and y(x_n)=y_n. The techniques are compared with respect to speed and accuracy by comparing the solution of each problem considered four times, each time for a different increment value, and comparing the errors at four pivotal points chosen at equally spaced distances over the domain of the function, to give an indication of …

A Development Of Regression Models For Predicting Temperature, Salinity And Sound Velocity In Sea Water, Darwin Wayne Brown

Masters Theses

"There are in existence today some reasonably good numerical procedures for predicting sound velocity, but these procedures require that certain initial data such as temperature and salinity be given before a sound velocity may be computed. Eliminating the need for on-location observations of temperature and salinity, which are used in computing sound velocity, was the primary objective of this study. Stepwise multiple regression was applied in the search for suitable models to predict temperature and salinity, and ultimately sound entirely in terms of controllable variables, such as latitude, longitude, depth, and day-of-year"--Abstract, page ii.

Problems Encountered With Control Networks In Highly-Restructurable Digital Systems, Donald F. Wann, Robert A. Ellis, Mishell J. Stucki, Robert M. Keller

All HMC Faculty Publications and Research

This paper discusses problems encountered with control networks in highly restructurable digital systems. In particular the treatment of implementation errors is covered with emphasis on concurrent processing. The implementation of concurrent processing networks may result in errors which will be quite complex to detect and systematic methods are warranted. Four meta control elements are employed in obtaining convenient concurrent structures. We analyze several error detecting schemes and conclude that the arc-node method with node partitioning appears to be the most realistic approach at this time.

Air Force Rotc At The University Of Richmond, 1951-1957, Robert J. Dandridge

Honors Theses

In the summer of 1950, after the seriousness of the Korean conflict had become evident, a special committee appointed three years earlier by the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees was reactivated for the purpose of considering "the feasibility of applying for a Reserve Office Training Corps unit" for the University of Richmond. This special committee, called the ROTC Committee, after thorough study, rendered a unanimous recommendation to the Board that a unit of Army ROTC be applied for. The application was completed and mailed to the Department of the Army. Approval of the application was not long in …

Rational Arithmetic As A Means Of Matrix Inversion, Jay Roland Peterson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The solution to a set of simultaneous equations is of the form A^-1 B = X where A^-1 is the inverse of A in the equation AX= B. The purpose of this study is to obtain an exact A^-1 through the use of rational arithmetic, and to study the behavior of rational numbers when used in arithmetic calculations.

This study describes a matrix inversion program written in SPS II, utilizing the concept of rational arithmetic. This program, using the Gaussian elimination matrix inversion method, is compared to the same method written in Fortran. Gaussian elimination …
