Abstract:
"Barriers to Closure" was a series of narratives specifically focusing on reoccurring thoughts, fears and anxieties within the artist's life. Instilled when he was younger, these anxieties were never resolved, thus creating additional fears as he grew into adolescence. Eventually they transformed into an intricate obstacle causing resolution to be a difficult task.These narratives are presented in thick bronze frames which constrain the content into a limited space. The pieces are purposefully small due to the artist's personal restriction of revealing what needs to be seen. Therefore, the vie

Tawn, Stephen James. "Plat closure of braids." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2008. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/854/.

Abstract:
Given a braid b ∈ B2n we can produce a link by joining consecutive pairs of strings at the top, forming caps, and at the bottom, forming cups. This link is called the plat closure of b. The set of all braids that fix the caps form a subgroup H2n and the plat closure of a braid is unchanged after multiplying on the left or on the right by elements of H2n. So plat closure gives a map from the double cosets H2n\B2n/H2n to the set of isotopy classes of non-empty links. As well moving within a double coset there is a stabilisation move which leaves the plat closure unchanged but increases the braid

In this paper, we show that a pointwise λ -symmetric λ -isotonic λ -closure function is uniquely determined by the pairs of sets it separates. We then show that when the λ -closure function of the domain is λ -isotonic and the λ -closure function of the codomain is λ -isotonic and pointwise- λ -symmetric, functions which separate only those pairs of sets which are already separated are λ -continuous.

Verification is a critical phase of the development cycle. It confirms the compliance of a design implementation with its functional specification. Coverage measures the progress of the verification plan. Structural coverage determines the code exercised by the functional tests.

Abstract:
The de-industrialisation of the UK economy caused by globalised international markets, advancements in technology and production with changing consumer demands have made much of what was ‘traditional’ manufacturing redundant; this has led to industrial restructuring or even collapse, resulting in mass job redundancies. Market and industrial pressures have intensified since the late 1990s, culminating in the symbolic collapse of MG Rover in 2005 in addition to other key producers in the West Midlands, which represented the end of mass automotive production in the region (Donnelly et al. 2012).

In this setting, we refer to this notion as a sublocale and we will show that there are at least four ways to represent sublocales.

When a ferromagnet is heated, it loses its magnetism. Stars and planets have magnetic fields, as does the Earth. But it is known that the center of the Earth is very hot. Therefore, to sustain the large magnetic field of a planet, we cannot look to simple ferromagnetism like that of a bar magnet, but we have to look at the movement of electric charges within the Earth’s molten core to generate magnetic field. This magnetic field sustainment against ohmic dissipation by turbulent flow is referred to as the turbulent dynamo effect. Theoretical research into the mechanisms that create the dynamo

There has been some sociological interest in MG Rover’s decline and widespread deindustrialisation in Birmingham. However, little research has considered the proximity of Rover’s closure in 2005 to another seminal event for the city – the opening of the Bullring shopping centre in 2003. These events appear indicative of Daniel Bell’s conception of ‘postindustrialism’. This thesis uses the tradition of ‘psychogeography’ to critique postindustrialism in Birmingham, examining the city’s collective psyche from a dynamic literary perspective. In Chapter 1, Daniel Bell’s predictions (made in 1973) o

Amphipathic molecules are basically long chains, one end of which likes water (is hydrophilic) and the other end abhors it (is hydrophobic). These molecules tend to sit vertically in a fluid and adhere to each other. This attraction of adjacent molecules causes the molecules to condense into regions, referred to as polymer Langmuir layer domains, which are a single molecule thick and behave like a two dimensional fluid. This attraction also manifests itself as a line tension, analogous to surface tension in a fluid droplet, which causes the regions to become circular as they attempt to minimiz
